No, I don’t mean women who are part grasshopper. Please don’t draw that, and if you do, don’t show me.

Our awesome pal Matt “Fort90” Hawkins has teamed up with Grasshopper Manufacture and Jap-Sai to give away lots of rad Grasshopper swag to the person who sends him the best fanart of any female character from a GHM game.

He explains, “Not gonna lie: I’m mostly interested in NMH babes, though I’d like to believe that game provides the greatest variety of potential subjects, so no one feels too constricted.” Check the site for image size and format requirements.

So what do you stand to get for your efforts? Only way too much fucking stuff, including the NMH2 “Erotica Comic,” two portrait postcard books, the Japanese guidebook for No More Heroes: Heroes’ Paradise, a copy of the rare Hand in Killer7 book, Bizarre Jerry 5, “Hellride,” Flower, Sun, & Rain t-shirts, and Cory Schmitz’s Killer 7 t-shirt (not having any of these shirts makes me wonder where my life went wrong).

You have until May 1 to prepare your entries. Fair warning: you’ll have to compete with me, and my artwork might just be sad enough to win out of pity.

No More Heroes 2 is once again super cheap, selling for $12.99 at Amazon, and I’m sharing this fanart of Travis Touchdown as a wolf to celebrate this deep discount. I had a tough time choosing between this image and another wonderful piece from BlueAtmosphere.

Amazon also has sales on both Phantasy Star Portable 2 and Metroid: Other M for $19.99, as well as two complicated promotions where you can save money and get $15 or $20 store credit after buying select games.

Anddddd, while we’re talking about sales, JC tells me that he’s heard reports of Target locations clearing Sin & Punishment 2 to $12. If you’re too lazy to go outside and check if it’s true, you can just buy it online for $19.99.

Finally, Grasshopper Manufacture has relaunched its online store, offering a single item worldwide. Actually, the shop launched yesterday, but, um, we’re trying to spread out the shopping posts.

The single item is the No More Heroes 2 soundtrack, selling for ¥3,150 yen. To celebrate the launch, GHM is giving away a NMH2 Hopper’s Edition signed by Suda 51, along with other stuff throughout the week. As usual, I’d be super pleased if a TC reader got this swag!

Grasshopper Manufacture PR provided a status update regarding the currently unavailable webstore. It’s on hold indefinitely, while the company makes video games or whatever, but it sounds like it’s going to be the business (also, a business) when it is operational once again.

In addition to a small amount of old stock, GHM is looking to sell the shirts currently offered through Tee Party. “We are also looking into a collaboration with some famous t-shirt designers overseas,” GHM said.

Other items that GHM is considering include a small number of No More Heroes 2 Hopper’s Editions and NMH2 soundtracks. Unfortunately, NMH2 “Erotica Comics” are not going to be part of the stock, nor will the t-shirts produced in partnership with Graniph.
