Pleasant, thoughtful mix of stop-motion like type stuff, "live action" and animation from visual artist Brian Alfred with a soundtrack heavy on sound design including Columbia, Missouri's own Jon Sheffield. So why no HD version?

Man-Gifts at ‘What to get Guys.com’

A shout to Rob Stretch and his man gift site What to Get Guys.  Rob cherry-picks products for you, so when buying for males, go there first -- it saves time and prevents frustration while delighting all involved in the resulting consumption.
