The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A short, chubby Spanish man without superpowers acts as a reluctant superhero in Electronic City. He fails to stop villains, buys gadgets from an online store, then uses them to save the day.

What happens
Cálico Electrónico: La Serie Flash was a Spanish Flash animated web series created by Nikodemo Animation in 2004. Set in 'Electronic City', its protagonist is a superhero far from the 'classic' hero profile: a short, chubby and not-powered Spanish man ('aspañol' as is called in the series). He risks his life time and again to save the city, using gadgets picked up at the Electronicaweb store. The story's usual plot proceeds as follows: A monster or a criminal attacks the city, Cálico tries to stop it and fails, goes to Electronicaweb, gets a new gadget, and saves the day. Some "bloopers" are displayed during the credits at the end of the episode. Even though Cálico is the main character, many side series have run with it, featuring many characters from the original series. On June 4, 2009, Nikodemo Animation was shut down completely by its owners due to bankruptcy, which meant the cancellation of all in-progress Cálico Electrónico series' related content, including, but not limited to, Rumbarola and animation series.
