Gillian Higgins offers Equine Lecture Demonstrations, helping to educate the world on proper equine care, a skill that every human should undoubtedly master. Tired of relying on simple text and images, Higgins decided to use a real horse as a live anatomical model.

One side of the horse showcases the skeletal structure, the other side displays the muscle. It takes four hours to apply the paint to a horse for their little anatomical show. Ok… which part is edible? Om nom nom.

When we think Hello Kitty, we think about the adorable piece of shit gadgets they produce and the meaningless of the entire damn brand. That’s right Hello Kitty, we’re hatin’. But this one is actually sort of neat.

This Hello Kitty toy designed by Dr Romanelli gives us the rare inside look. This is the first time we’ve gotten to dissect a Hello Kitty doll and apparently a bunch of their organs have eyes, which is actually pretty creepy.

Do I really need to warn you about zombies if you’re wearing this shirt? At this point you’re just asking for a zombie attack. This shirt looks both awesome and delicious.

When I was a kid, there was no such thing as bone or muscle. Everything inside the body was considered guts. When a head exploded, guts exploded out with it. Shot in the knee? Out come the guts.

These Shoe Guts were designed by Sara Antoinette Martin for the book “Custom Kicks.” See… I was right. Feet totally have guts.

Anatomical mix master Jason Freeny has created anatomical models for such oddities as balloon animals, gummy bears and now, Japan’s own Domo.

Domo has just been all over the damn place. The last few years, around Halloween,  Domo has been pushed and promoted like crazy. Last year at Target, this year at 7-Eleven, it seems like 2009 is no exception. If you were ever wondering what the little guy looked like without his skin, I guess you finally got your wish.

Bert Simons created this excellent anatomical papercraft of the muscles of the human skull. Simons calls it an “anatomically incorrect representation,” but it looks pretty damn nifty, incorrect or not.

I’ve kinda always wondered about this. Do monsters have the same basic anatomic features as us humans? I mean think about it. When you think of monsters, they could really be made of anything, sort of like aliens. Well, now we know.

These anatomical charts come complete with spiked vertebrates and massive human filled colons. Hit the jump for Godzilla and friends.

Designer Angela Moramarco created this AnatoWii project, demonstrating what the anatomy of the Wii console might look like if it had internal organs, rather than hardware.

Consoles, in their own way, can become living, breathing members of our everyday life. Why shouldn’t they have their own anatomical charts? If we had to guess what organ composed the Wii, we would have guessed it was 100% colon. Totally full of shit.

This Haute Charcuterie pair of Nike Air Force 1s puts the pedal to the metal and the metal to the muscle. Designer BlackYard created these anatomical pair of Nikes, which divides your foot into prime slices of meat.

I’m sure this has some sort of snazzy concept, like “Oh, Nike is just one of those corporations filled with porky pigs.” But honestly, this just makes me want to buy a new pair of shoes.

If realism were a reality, rather than a philosophical perspective, the world as we know it would change before are eyes. For one thing, there would be no more reality TV (clearly), and the classic “I Love (heart)…” t-shirts would look a little different.

The “I Love Realism” t-shirt illustrates just how different life would be if reality really was reality. An anatomical heart replaces the heart symbol on this anti-abstract tee. I imagine playing poker would have a whole new gory spin as well. Can you stomach the four of hearts?
