Jawbreaker was not only one of the best indie punk bands to ever get in a van, but they were also friends of Giant Robot magazine. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the much-loved trio's debut album, Unfun, and its re-release on Blackball Records, the Giant Robot stores are holding their inaugural Jawbreaker Weekend, which will entail a ton of great music blasting on the stereos (Jawbreaker and related groups such as forgetters, Horace Pinker, J Church, Jets to Brazil, The Moons, Mutoid Men, Shore Birds, Thorns of Life, and Whysall Lane) both days and special "merch" including free buttons and a limited-edition T-shirt for sale.
In addition, copies of the newly remastered Unfun CD will be given to the first die-hard fans who go to the stores and do one the following:
* Bring a Jawbreaker mix CD. These will be added to the store's musical rotations over the weekend and beyond. (2 at GR/Sawtelle, 2 at GRSF, 1 at GRNY)
* Show a Jawbreaker tattoo. (2 at GR/Sawtelle, 2 at GRSF, 1 at GRNY)
One more CD will be given to the Jawbreaker/GR fan who uploads the best Jawbreaker karaoke video to YouTube. The winner will be selected by Blake, Chris, and Adam themselves, and the latter promises to send bonus goodies. To enter, please tag the video with "Giant Robot Store/Jawbreaker Contest" and send a link to info@giantrobot.com.

As seen in GR64, the exclusive Black Rock Shooter figure is now available for pre-order at secure.giantrobot.com. The sculpt, mold, and paint job are superb, and we are proud to make signed versions of Huke's piece available to our readers.
** Please note: The figure is NOT produced by Yutaka Yamamoto, as erroneously stated in the ad currently running in Giant Robot 64. We apologize for any confusion caused by this mistake. ***
