Title: Interest Check: PC Engine shirts with cute Hu card design ORDERING TODAY!!
Post by: tiptopjames on January 16, 2015, 10:19:35 AM

This is a cross post from the other side of the board, though you should always check both (I know I do!)

So my lady friend owns a print making business, they do all of their printing by hand, and get a lot of business making posters for events and shirts for local businesses/chains here in OK.

Recently, we were looking through some of our PC Engine manuals, and we happened upon this cute little bugger

We want that on our chests, so it shall be.

She is going to be printing at least 2 (one for me, one for her), but we would love to do a larger run if anyone in the collecting community is interested. Price would vary depending on how large of a run we do. That being said, I would expect roughly 14 shipped per shirt. We will not skimp on the shirt quality, it will be nice soft cotton that will make you feel cozy. We could go the American Apparel route, but that might run more. People seem to like them though.

If anyone is interested, please post here! We have 2 color schemes we can't decide between (one to match the PCE Duo, one to match the Super CD2) Depending on how many we end up making, we may need to get half of payment upfront to order the initial shirts (I don't mind covering it if the run is smallish, but we both own businesses and it can be tough to front costs on a labor that is more for love than money)

EDIT: The orange on grey looked way better than the lavender. Trust me.

Thanks for reading guys!

Vote on color scheme? Most votes is the one we go with, most people seem to not care but lavender/dark grey is in the lead!

Either is fine! How hard would it be to mock up the two color schemes? :)

Not hard, but it would be my lady doing the mock up. I will mention it tonight when we are both off work

Yeah seeing the colors would be nice! I'm really for either one, I like both in thought.
