A giftbook for any fan of popular culture, packed with over 800 of the very best of the acclaimed Flipflopflyin' minipops, cult illustrations from Craig Robinson. This book is the first-ever collection of Robinson's ever-expanding army of miniature pixellated people (including comedians/popstars/movies/cartoon characters...no-one is safe) Leaf through the book and identify as many minipops as you can, should you get stuck, the answers appear in the back of the book, in Robinson's own witty, inimitable words. Ideal post-pub entertainment.

Ｃｒａｉｇ Ｒｏｂｉｎｓｏｎの作品はピクセルの世界だ。このたった２５ピクセルの高さという制約が、彼の手にかかると魅力的な人物などに変わっていく。彼はＭＴＶ、コレットのＷＥＢサイトやポールスミスのＴシャツデザインなど幅広く手がけているベルリンのアーティストだ。今話題のＳＷ、ＴＶキャラクターのビックバードなどを含め有名人をみることが出来る。この小さな世界を是非、のぞいてみることをお勧めします。そこに有名人達自身より、よりリアルなイメージを見出すことができます。

縦横数千ドットの高解像度画像が当たり前のようになっている昨今、数十ドットの点だけで、ここまで描く表現力は、芸術です！ わずかな点で、ちゃんとキャラが描き分けられています。写実的（？）なポップアート！
「あっ、エリザベス女王！？」「あの有名なスポーツ選手ね…」「ダースベイダーだっ！」と、何となくピンとくるのです。
描かれている人物は欧米人ばかりですが、日本でも有名な人物が多いですし、眺めるだけで、楽しくなりますよ。
小さい人物がスラリと各ページに並んでいるのは微笑ましく、なぜか癒されます。
巻末に人物リスト（ここは英語です）もありますから、よくわからなかった人物は、これで確認できます。
（日本人には馴染みのない人物は、リストを見ても、私はやっぱりわからなかったですけどね。）

Brilliant art, buy poorly designed
2005/12/18
形式:ハードカバー
I would love to give this book five stars, as I think Craig's caricatures are absolutely brilliant, deserving TEN stars on their own. However, the design of this book was very poorly thought out, so I have to give it only three.
Firstly, I think they should have made the people larger, at least as large as on the cover, but probably even a little larger. I believe the true beauty of pixel art becomes more apparent the larger the pixels appear. Yeah, I get it, MINIpops, but whatever, the size does not do justice to Craig's work.
Secondly, and this is my major beef, there is NO INDEX. There is an answer key in the back for each page in the book, so you can play fun little guessing games with your friends, but if you want to find a specific person, there is no way to figure out what page they are on (short of a brilliant photographic memory). I design books for a living, so I know they had a page count to adhere to, but I would've rather trimmed out some of the more obscure celebrities to make the book more user-friendly. Something to think about for volume two...

Flip Flop Flyin' Boy is a genius.
2004/11/11
形式:ハードカバー
Craig Robinson, the genius behind FlipFlopFlyin.com, has taken his huge collection of pixelated celebrities and put them in a book. Seems simple, right? But it's such a work of art! High quality printing (not to mention all of Mr. Robinson's Minipops collected in one place that you can access anywhere) really makes this book a perfect addition to any [insert winter holiday here] wish-list. Or you could just buy it. Yes, why don't you just do that.

fun - fun - fun !
2005/1/8
形式:ハードカバー
who doesn't want to have hundreds of famous people in their own home? i know i do!
now that i own my own copy of mini-pops i have tiny famous people all over my house. craig's drawings are delightful and his words are witty. this is a great book of pixelated pals to pick up and peruse or pass around at a party! and excellent & unique gift even for those friends who seem to have everything!
the printing and paper quality is very nice as well, if you are interested in things like that.
