Welcome to the latest edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight! I, @zombiepie, am once again honored to be your host as we look back at the best community-created works from the previous week.
Unfortunately, we have to talk about some negative news with this edition of the Spotlight. As many of you are already aware, recent orders for the new t-shirts started hitting homes and many were shocked to discover they were not printed as advertised. The site and managers of the store are aware of the problem and doing everything that they can to refund any and all impacted orders. The affected shirts are mainly the Temple and Tarot shirts, but we have also seen some issues with Cat/Yarn design being printed off-center and the Bomby shirt also looking far more plastic-y than anticipated. If any of these problems describe your shirt order, please email support@giantbomb.com.
You can also use the Giant Bomb Discord to get updates on the issue and reply to the Tweet I linked above to direct contact Rorie. For those of you that would like to avoid using Twitter or Discord, here's a link to Rorie's on-site post about the issue where you can learn about the problem, ask questions, and report specific issues for you impacted orders.
In better news, the staff are trying something different with UPF moving forward. As revealed during Unprofessional Fridays: UPF - 08/05/22, each week the site plans to have a "theme" for UPF and the participating staff will play a game that matches that theme. If you have any interesting ideas for a theme, feel free to drop a comment on the 08/05/22 UPF with an idea! With that out of the way, let's jump into the Spotlight!

I went through my collection and added over 70 accessories to the @giantbomb wiki in the last few days. So, if you wanna write a dissertation on the PS2 Horizontal Stand or something... have at it. pic.twitter.com/MsdYyZ0ylK

Today's blast from the past: version of the 2018 logo I had a few months before we launched the big redesign with it. Pretty sure this was in July, redesign went out in November. pic.twitter.com/HPaHhsz5sw

Jeff Jeff Bizarre Stardust Crusaders (By: @jearum)
Jeff Jeff Bizarre Stardust Crusaders is finally happening and many, jearum included, cannot help but get a little excited! Using their ATHF version of Jeff B, they went ahead and got the man in the right spirit for what is ahead.
Oops! All Cena Giant Bomb Skins (By: @jearum)
I don't know about you, but I thought the Oops, All Cenas?! Playdate is one of the best individual shows to ever be put together by the new staff. It was an absolute blast to watch live and it is still something I enjoy watching. Artist jearum obviously agrees with me, hence, this work of art.
Helmut Kruger is... Mrs. Fortyseven (By: @jearum)
For those of you that recall the 749th episode of the Bombcast, you might recall each of the staff doing their best Mrs. Doubtfire impression. jearum immediately thought of at least one video game character that likely would have put all of their efforts to shame.
