5th - MISSED Bash Bash a party celebration for the fifth game (technically 4 year and some change anniversary not actually five full years but it was his fifth release. It was a birthday tho so it kinda counts)

10th- *Gulp* Crash Boom Bang! Another party game to celebrate 10 wonderful years. Not many people liked this game

15th- MISSED Crash's hiatus began 100ish days before Crash's 15th anniversary. Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 2 came out in June 2010

20th- Crash Expansion for the Skylanders Franchise: Thumpin' Wumpa Island was released along with Skylanders figures for him and Cortex. N.Sane Trilogy was announced.

25th- Crash on the Run! had a birthday week event with balloons and streamers and special skins to unlock to celebrate.

30th- Crash is playable on Fortnite and everyone hates how he looks.

So out of the six anniversaries we got, 5th missed, 10th boom bang, 15th missed, 20th Skylanders expansion, 25th On the Run! Event, 30th this

Crash had had pretty crap official anniversaries so this is just par the course.
Would have been nice to get something better? Absolutely. But beggars can't be choosers, right?

I'm just thank our little orange buddy is still in the public eye and being considered for things period.

So obviously there is tons of lore behind the franchise and it crosses over with like absolutely everything.
I was under the impression this upcoming episode was going to be a Crash Bandicoot centric thing, having just come off of watching the trailer....doesn't seem to be at all lol.

Anyway all that out of the way, let me ask the questions.

1. It's kind of assumed everything that crosses into Frotnite are AU things right?
   When Terminator crossed it wasn't from the actual movies, it was some AU.
   When Godzilla crossed it wasn't from like Toho or Monsterverse it was from some AU?

So Crash bandicoot here isn't meant to be anything lore wise at all? It's just a some random AU of Crash?

2. the trailer ended on a dream...so does that make it even less canon? Like the whole season is going to be going on in that dude's dream? So he's just dreaming up all these video game heroes? So the events wont even be canon to Fortnite?

3. Does Fortnite have cutscenes? Are we going to be looking out for Crash Bandicoot specific cutscenes? Explaining why/how he's there?

Thanks in advance, guys.

I know this isn't what Capu Capu's concept art looked like but I'd like to think this is his spiritual successor. CAPtain paPU fills the role of Capu Capu wouldn't you say?
Also I wonder what Wumpa Rum taste like?

So when it comes to skins I have varying opinions on what counts as a character and what is just a non-canon skin.
Example: Robot Cortex from CTR:NF to me is a character. He's not Cortex wearing a ninja outfit, he's not Cortex being modified like the Cybernetic skin which made him a cyborg, it's legit a full on separate entity. What solidified my opinion was his inclusion in Crash on the Run! where he was a boss character all his own with Frosty, Inferno and oxide variants.

Fake Baby-T has never reappeared in a future installment so it's hard to say whether or not one would consider him as a separate canoncial character.
I for one feel like I lean more towards he is one than he isn't one. My rationale is because the Prehistoric Playground track has plenty of other "Fake" dinosaurs, the Brontosauruses, triceratops and pterodactyls all have the same eyebrows and buck teeth as other Fake Characters. It would help if Fake Baby-T was in cave art in the track but right now all we have is this skin.

What do you think? Yay or nay?

Was looking through old pictures on my old laptop. I stumbled across this, I made it for a 4chan thread back in like 2005ish. It was for a parody video game thread on /v/

A Pelican and Panda Bear, Ukulele is the Bear, Flutie is the Bird.

Ukulele before Yooka-Laylee

Early artwork of Chicken Mario that unfortunately didn't end up happening.

I watched some Lupin the third on television back in the day and am looking into getting back into it. I decided to see how many episodes there were. Little did I know the franchise was pretty large. Multiple Animated Shows, Movies, OVAS and Specials.
I decided to make myself a chart of what is dubbed in English and what isn't so I can help myself keep track of things.
Figured I'd see if there was a Lupin Subreddit to share with you guys.
Forgive me if I've missed anything and correct me in the thread below.

Spyro Crash for me.

Remember back when Nitro Fueled was winding down and people were like scraping the bottom of the barrel with character suggestions?
Saw a lot of people ask for "Pork" the warthog from Crash Bandicoot 1.
Little did they know he was in the game the whole time!

I couldn't believe it when I found out.
