TeeFury are about to release Ian Leino‘s latest t-shirt design and it’s definitely worth a look (and a laugh). The Time Warp Tee will be available for $9 for 24 hours on Monday, January 24th.

Time Warp Tee

Featuring all most of your favourite time travelling peeps from the movies including (the famous) half of Wyld Stallyns aka Ted from ‘Bill and Ted’, midgets from Terry Gilliam’s amazing ‘Time Bandits’, ‘The Terminator’, but no sign of Dr. Who. Although seeing as he keeps changing every couple of years that would be a doozie to draw!

If you fancy holding out for a hand screened version, you can buy one of Leino’s own Time Warp Tees shortly after TeeFury’s clock has counted down. Ian will also be running a coupon code FluxCapacitor good for 15% off your total order at: www.shop.ianleino.com. PLUS he’ll be giving away goodies through both Facebook and Twitter (with more details available on his blog). Phew!

604Republic seem to be running on all pistons right now, they’re knocking out more and more high quality design and are starting to gain some serious clout in the market. Here are their latest tee releases, the first features a gamer’s closet, as opposed to the more usual closet gamer, and the second features none other than those little blue imps that doubled an oil company’s profits whilst subconsciously inferring that only female character Smurfette  …is a tramp. Yes you guessed it, those vile blue cretins The Smurfs. I used to collect them as a kid, I think I ended up executing them all very slowly with a large magnifying glass on a particularly hot Summer’s day. Ahh for the memories.

Gamer’s Closet Tee

This one’s available in both blue and silver, everything you need to battle virtual foes and frenemies is included in the price :p Get this tee for $19.95 in sizes S-XL.

Blue Horde Tee

Love it, anything to get my mind off the likelihood that the old skank Smurfette must have been servicing the whole village for over 30 years by now. I’m a big fan of all things zombie related, if you haven’t seen the latest contribution to the genre, check out The Horde (it’s in French – but it’s worth straining with subtitles for pure cinematic zombie mayhem). Anyway back to the t-shirt, it’s awesome, dead Smurfs on toast for me please. Get this tee for $19.95 in sizes S-XL.

Calculus Hero Tee

Gump Tees are nerdy and proud, if its mathematical they’re on the case. They offer a selection of funny nerd t-shirts in sizes S-XL for guys all at $18 each. Their Calculus Hero Tee stands out by a mile…

Calculus Hero Tee

A great spoof on Guitar Hero, which for anyone over 30 with even the slightest ability in music… totally sucks. At least music games seem to be moving on now, as in you can play or rather learn to play ‘real’ instruments. In the meantime, one talent that has evaded me since the age of 11 is calculus, now that is a doozy. If the world ran on the lines of brains over beauty and brawn, every nerd would be a hero! Get this kewl tee for guys in sizes S-XL for $18.

Mind Killer Tee

admin    T-Shirts     Frank Herbert, Lynch, Mind Killer, book t-shirts, geek tees, literary, movie t-shirts, sci-fi tees, the-affair

Available in white, sizes S-XL here at £27/€32/$40 each. Get a £5 discount by quoting our exclusive discount code buy-tees5 at the checkout! The Mind Killer Tee is the latest offering from the original literary t-shirt label, The-Affair, which was featured yonks and yonks ago in my post Rendezvous With The Affair. Rather a beautiful rendering and a classic(ish) novel to boot.

“Fear is the mind-killer.” If you recognise that phrase then you’re a true sci-fi buff. I have to admit I don’t read as much sci-fi as I used to, although ever since the demise of my failed career as a sci-fi screenplay writer (don’t ask) I have trawled the outer limits of the sci-fi movie genre with something of an obsessive zeal. If it’s any good I’ve seen it, along with quite a few cinematic bombs too, one of them of course being Dune.

David Lynch‘s commercial flop was an adaptation of Frank Herbert‘s hexalogy, featuring everything I should hate, but for some reason, in this one exception, am swayed, heavily. The soundtrack is awful, with contributions from electronic music god Brian Eno, it sounds like Queen (the band not the monarch) but worse. Sting really is a truly terrible actor following the tradition of pop stars deciding they can act, Jagger, Bowie, Madonna, they never learn. Then there’s the  highly confused plot that makes Zardoz look logical, and a perfect example for why condensed adaptations of literary trilogies always fail at the box office, hence the LOTR epics. Still, what a line “Fear is the mind killer”.

Pass me the spice someone.

The Big Bang and The Meaning of Life

admin    T-Shirts     Big Bang, geek t-shirts, geek tees, math tees, science t-shirts

No don’t worry, I’m not gonna’ get all “existential” on you here, this post’s cryptic title is actually based on the names of two of the latest winning tees at the popular French t-shirt community La Fraise.

The Big Bang Theory Tee

A hell of a funky tee! So, if you’ve ever wondered how the universe actually works… read a lot of complicated books. If you’re after a quick laugh and a dazzle of colour then check out The Big Bang Theory Tee by GUS! Totally mad, rather hilarious and a great illustration. It’s selling out fast but there are still tees available in all sizes for guys and girls for €23 each.

In keeping with the slightly esoteric and rather philosophical theme have a look at what might be the most important equation ever formulated in the history of Man, or what is more likely a string of gibberish!

Happiness Tee

The Happiness Tee by Tavutactac is an ingenious design, I was a total loser at maths at school so I am of course easily impressed. If anyone out there is a mathematical genius, do tell us what this equation actually means. I’ll take a guess and say it’s a mish-mash of lots of math thrown together, but who knows, could be deep lol. Anyway a great idea for a tee, not exactly graphic but cool all the same. It should be available soon as it’s just won the last round of La Fraise’s contest, if you’re a member (it’s free to join) you can preorder it now. I’m guessing it’s €23 when it is available.

Pretty deep for a first post of the week – hah. Okay, maybe not that deep but it’s nice to see something other than zombie and tattoo t-shirts for a change lol.

I’ve even been friends with one of the guys who worked on the original movie, sure he was an alcoholic and only did the backgrounds, but we still had a few fascinating chats!

Welcome to the dark side, SplitReason.com (who I’ve featured before) have sent in a few of their latest designs and they are distinctly leaning on the macabre side, but don’t worry they haven’t left their famous sense of humour, I’m tempted to do a full whack review of this label as they have plenty of goodies on offer but I’m committed (I should be – to a mental home) to helping out a couple of new designers on the verge of breaking an exciting new label that will need all the PR it can muster.

So for now let’s take a look at three new tees at SplitReason… read more
