Turbo Ts

Nemo · 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

), 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?

D-Lite · 07/02/2005, 02:53 AM

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

;)

I payed to have a Ys 1&2 t-shirt

Keranu · 07/06/2005, 03:44 AM

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

Keranu · 07/06/2005, 08:51 PM

Very good use.

twor2005 · 07/09/2005, 10:21 PM

I'd really like to see pics of these. Preferably not being worn at the time

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

That would rule, put a Keith Courage over your junk too.

GUTS, you rule! What a brilliant idea!

Keranu · 07/10/2005, 08:15 PM

Hahaha, Keith Courage over the junk! Go for it, mahn! (quoting some fighting game here, I believe it was CvS2.)

GUTS · 07/12/2005, 12:25 AM

Sounds like Street Fighter Alpha 2. Beat em up guys! Go for broke!

That's wrong on so many levels.

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.
