Buzzfeed’s Matt Bellassi picked it up in December 2013 and then agreed to write about it a second time this year.
Their ‘making of’ video is worth a fun look, it is also for sale. And I’m guessing the back catalogue sales will be fueling a whole lot of titilation too.
And this year they’re crowd-funding the 2015 edition.
