Just sharing a Gradius shirt

Don't know if you people are aware of this shirt's existence

(the old guy is Konami's president, or whatever)

if this thread derails then derail it into a 'where you buy cool shirts'-esque thread

I think I would like it more if it wasn't so extreme neo-80's for comical value. GRADIUS IS SERIOUS.

More like neo-90's. Reminds me of some shit from 90s EXTREME mTV. Still looks like ass, anyway.

^^^Yeah, early 90's MTV bumper ads is exactly what I thought. On a semi related note the guy kinda looks like a character from Aeon Flux.

is that official artwork or something someone knocked up? I wont lie. . . I fucking hate zazzle. for one off shirts its ok but otherwise its shite. But the design is pretty quirky.
the designers made a shoot the core shirt too . . . and the obligatory 'Worlds greatest dad' shirt. does the store name refer to someone on another shmup forum?

He also made a Travis shirt from Killer7 (except not on a wifebeater...ergh).
'world's greatest DAD' looks like it was more of a joke than anything.

Trying to find the dude's e-mail or anyway I can to message him, I like his style...


(PS c'mon guys the dude's nametag says VIC VIPER c'mon guys)
