    Surely, as fashionable accessories go, it can't compete with one of these?

    What's really bad is when I have people recognize my Dawn shirt with dead Flyboy.....after a few minutes of discussion I realise that they're referring to Dawn(04) and don't even know the original.

    I gotta order one of these badboys. I just keep putting it off. They do look pretty damned cool.

    How's the material and screening quality on the tee, Paranoid?

    I own 4 tees and haven't had a single problem with them, much better printing and quality that the ebay crap you can get.

    Well I got the message. Thanks for the response, and feel better (I'm sick too the last few days).

    I've got one of these, and also a USMC Sulaco one. The fact that the references won't be immediately obvious to 99.8% of the population is actually a positive, in my opinion/experience: they are recognizable to fans whilst just looking like a stylish design to the uninitiated. It's a good way for true geeks to identify each other in the wild, while avoiding non-geeks mentally categorizing you as the typical horror-teeshirt-wearing, neckbearded weirdo.
