Awesome Popeye

Preppy Pop’s fun, fitted, limited-edition Bluto All Brawn shirt sports an original, officially-licensed textile design of Popeye the Sailor Man’s hot-headed nemesis, Bluto (who would have had a better chance of stealing Popeye’s “goil” if he dressed this sharp).

Mezco Toyz presents its badass take on Popeye the Sailor. The action figure stands about 5.5″ tall and has 28 points of articulation. It comes with six pipes, seven hands, three hats, two heads, two spinach cans, a coat, a compass, a spy glass and a duffle bag.

Turns out spinach works even on toys. Headplay Toys made this badass realistic 12″ Popeye the Sailor Man. Well, if you could call a man with arms twice the size of his thighs “realistic.” Limited to 500 units.

Los Angeles’ Hero Complex Gallery presents an artists’ tribute to Popeye, celebrating the 85th year of the spinach-eating sailor. The show features works from over 100 artists and runs 9/5-9/21/2014. Online sales start on 9/6 here.

Jeff Tweedy and the band enlist the help of Popeye, Olive Oyl, Bluto and a can of Wilco spinach for their quirky new animated music video for Dawned on Me. If you don’t like Popeye, it’s still a great song.
