Title: Turbo Ts
Post by: Nemo on 07/02/2005, 01:46 AM
I was looking at an old ad pack-in yesterday that had Turbo T-shirts you could order for $8.95, did anyone ever order any of these?  I wish I did, some are friggin awesome like the one for Splatterhouse (it has a hand coming out of the ground, looks cooler than it sounds  :lol: ), they also had a nice Bloody Wolf one too (just featured US box art).  Anyone else even remember Turbo Ts?

I've got a Bonk one, Devil's Crush, and now a Lords of Thunder one.  Awesome stuff.

Sweet.  Is there some place that still sells them or are you buying them secondhand?

Two from eBay and one from TZD for helping with the Turbo Express thing.  It was his last   :(

I made my own custom Turbografx T-Shirt on Cafe Press.  On the front, it has the Turbografx-16 logo with Bonk peeking around the side, and on the back it has a the big, rectangular Turbografx-16 emblem.  The sleeve cuffs and neck are orange.  It looks pretty sweet.  If you've seen the G4 E3 2005 special they had about a month ago, you may have seen me wearing it, playing games at the Capcom booth.  I had about a half dozen people ask me where I got my shirt that day.  That's right, spreading the Turbo love.  ;)

Do you have pictures of that shirt? It sounds pretty sweet.

I also dug the Turbo Grafx 16 coffee mugs that were out.

I have a Devil's Crush t-shirt (black t) and a Legendary Axe II (white t).  The DC shirt is in great condition...

I got them back in the day as a freebie...  NEC or TurboPlay sent them out...

If I can find one I'll model it for you, Nemo

;)

Ohh a Ys Book I & II t-shirt would be perfect. There might be one in Japan somewhere. I'd get it.

I have an old TG16 duffle bag from a CES, in the old glowing Orange and Green colors. I use it to cart my Gamecube around  :D

How dare you! For that, I'll be wearing ONLY the t-shirt. Pics are coming... :D

Actually know that you mention the Alpha series, I am sure the line I mentioned and the one you mentioned as well were froM SFA3.

You mean you had one done? I was just thinking about that. How did you do it? What kind of place did you go to?

I also wanted to bump this thread. I'm still waiting for pics of the shirts (I hope I don't regret this, haha).

Well, it turns out that my Legendary Axe II shirt was sitting in storage in my mom's attic for the last decade +.  I'm in Cape May now, but when I head back north in a week, I'll have a photo for you. The Devil's Crush shirt is in CA, so you'll have to wait for that photo :). Surprisingly, the LAII shirt still fits me, but the DC shirt was small on me when I was a kid, so I have no idea how it will fit now. At the very least, it will be good for a laugh to see me in a too-tight-jones shirt.
