I’ve been waiting for this ever since I saw early artwork on the Rex Box (Rex Crowle) blog, Hairyteeth (By the way, you may know more of Rex’s work from the immensely popular PS3 game, LittleBigPlanet). Gripwrench has launched! Rex has been working on this 10 part series for MTV for what seems like forever, and its a pleasure to see his unique character design and animation go live in these longer form pieces.

I can sit and continue how great I think this stuff is, or you can stop wasting time and go watch the clips and read other material on the site right now, including a great snippet on how Rex came up with the character in ‘The Making‘ and some crazy Grip-Wrench’d posters in ‘The Meat’.

So, enjoy: Grip Wrench.

And for extra giggles, check out his myspace.

Just before we break for the holidays, take a moment to lighten up and check out this trailer for Studio AKA’s new short Film “Lost and Found,” directed by Philip Hunt. This 25-minute animated film is an adaptation of Oliver Jeffer’s award winning children’s book.

For those of you in the UK, you’ll have a chance to catch it on Christmas Eve at 2:30 and again on Boxing Day at 4:30 on Channel 4. For the rest, you can look forward to an expanded release in the coming year.
