Post by: Deafens Proner on September 15, 2012, 03:56:04 PM
From the publisher:

You'll be the envy of your friends, the coolest kid at the party, and your grandma's favorite when you wear this limited edition "Dimension 3" shirt from 8bitmatt. Inspired by Nintendo's Virtual Boy and hand pixel'd to perfection. Only 50 are available. Each package deal comes with 2 stickers (a $6 value) and an individually numbered card.
 
American Apparel tri-blend is one of the softest, most comfortable shirts you'll ever own. The individually numbered cards are printed on thick layers of Mohawk Superfine paper and have a sweet red banding around the edge. The stickers are silkscreen printed, UV protected and can last outside 3-5 years! You can read more about the stickers over here.

If I had the discretionary income, I'd buy 'em all out just to deny blklblskt the pleasure of owning one.

'Cuz I take pleasure in other people's suffering.

Maybe they're afraid the VB looks like the tripods.  Look out for the invasion!

Well, you don't have to buy them all Zag.  It appears that both small and medium sizes are sold out, so my wallet stays safe for another day.

Here, have a big ol' stack of deep-fried velveeta sammitches.

And some nice egg nog to wash 'em down with.

Did I mention we're having Ben & Jerry's chunky monkey for dessert?

I couldn't help but notice "10% of every item sold will be donated to Child's Play". While I applaud them for wanting to help out a great charity like that, I don't get what Child's Play will do with 10% of a shirt or sticker. Unless maybe its a different 10% from each shirt and then they sew the pieces together to make a complete shirt...

It'd probably work better if they just donated 10% of the sale price or profit from each sale.
