pilihp on Mar 27 '07 great job! 5$
|
 |
ahhah great!
|
 |
FRICKINAWESOME on Mar 27 '07 No Knight Rider or GI Joe/Cobramobile? Still, your skillz continue to improve and improve, and nothing less than a 5$ would do for this brilliantly executed nostaligafest. The perspective looks a tad bit off between the Batmobile and the BTTF Delorean, but maybe its me.

BlameTheSuburbs on Mar 27 '07 well done! i sadly cannot recognize most of you're vehicles.

I'm so glad there are no Gi Joe vehicles on this. Never to the scrapheap. I love it. I'd probably buy the heck out of this shirt.
|
 |
I pity the foo who don't buy this shirt! $5
|
 |
Nice job, definitely needs KITT though. $5
|
 |
FINALLY! An Old Skool sub I actually adore! There have been so many Rubik's Cubes, break dancers, and casette tapes that it's made me hate this competition! This is absolutely clever in every way. I think it's a great play on the theme and well drawn, too. So good! This has to win! If any of those other terrible designs win, I will boycott Threadless!
Like, totally $5! |
 |
Luke... on Mar 27 '07 i love rust...great work man.
|
 |
I would totally buy optimus prime for 10 cents/ lb.
And probably more than one copy of this shirt. |
 |
amazing concept and design 5$
|
 |
pxlb on Mar 27 '07 Wow... You did it...
Tell me, what are you going to do with two iPods ? :) |
 |
This is the best design I've seen on threadless!!!!
|
 |
Mr Rocks on Mar 27 '07 If you want to sell your iPod ian I'm your man...
Another great sub. You're on a roll bro, keep with it!! |

love magnum pi's car in the back
|
|
5$
|
 |
Despite your caveat about not being able to put everything into the picture, pretty soon everyone will start listing the vehicles they wish were here. Allow me to toss my own into the mix: the bike from Akira.
That said? Great design. 5 |
|
5$ A great design with just the right combination of nostalgia and pure talent.
|
|
Great work - the shirt is fantastic. If you're looking for other cars to add, I'd suggest the Family Truckster from "Vacation".
|
|
Love.
|
 |
FIVE awesome
|
 |
abeadle on Mar 28 '07 whoa this is so awesome! $5 print it!!
|
 |
Ballin'.
|

|
 |
BTTF DELOREAN! $5
|
 |

|
 |
jublin on Mar 28 '07 ahhhaha beatiful ian! i dont know how i missed this in the other blogs. great jorb here.
|
|
This is amazing! Great job and effects!
|
 |
Nice!
|
 |
This has to be one of the best designs I have seen on Threadless. Are you taking pre-orders?!?
|
 |
Awesome, really perfect for the competition. DH is going to want one of these, so $5 to you.
|
 |
WARNING: THIS T-SHIRT ONLY FOR THE CULTURALLY LITERATE.
=D heck yes dude...heck yes. 5$ |
 |
Optimus Prime, Tron's bike, A-Team, Airwolf,....what's not to love? Special props for the Blues Brothers car. 5$
|
 |
Gotta throw my 2 cents in for the glaring omission of the Knight Industries Two Thousand. I'd probably pick KITT over the Magnum P.I. car, especially for being more instantly identifiable.
|
 |
this design made me shit my pants with joy, i give you 5$ and if I could give you 20$ i would. Fuck yeah.
|
 |
OPTIMUS!!!!!!!!!!!
|
 |
herky on Mar 29 '07 top notch illustration, excellent weathered details
|
 |
grayehound on Mar 29 '07 i still think the cleverest thing in this is the Tron cycle de-ressing. it makes a good design a great one. nice work Ian!
|
 |
Lupencia on Mar 30 '07 this should just be printed now 5$
|
 |
LOVE IT, but i dont really feel that batmobile is very 80's even though Tim Burton snuck it in in 89. I'd like this better if that was KITT from Knight Rider. It's totally 80's and just as iconic.
|
 |
Ste7en on Mar 30 '07 so awesome
|
 |
Ian Leino on Mar 30 '07 Thanks for all the incredible comments so far!
KITT was featured in the original version of this design, but I ended up pulling it for the General Lee to bring some color into the left side of the composition. From all of your comments, I can see that removing KITT was a sore mistake, and should this be picked up for printing, I will definitely replace the Batmobile with some Knight Rider awesomeness. |
 |
Aww man even though knight rider would be amazing i love the batmobile!!!! I would still end up buying it without the batmobile but thats one of the main reasons i love it!!!
|
|
FRICKINAWESOME on Mar 30 '07 Is that the Magnum PI car in the back of the sub? I thought it was the corvette from the M.A.S.K. 80's cartoon! Damn i loved those toys...
|
 |
$5 for the blues mobile.
|
 |
$5 all the way.
"I will definitely replace the Batmobile with some Knight Rider awesomeness." - You do that, and it will be even better... but I'd buy it either way. |
 |
dude
|
 |
Ellsswhere on Mar 31 '07 the batmobile is one of the strong points... it is more identifiable with the general masses. KITT would be nice but I would consider a different car to erase... or you could try and force him in there somewhere. 5$
|
 |
YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!
|
 |
5$ just for the delorean
|
|
abeadle on Mar 31 '07 printit!!!!!! $5
|
 |
harpo25 on Mar 31 '07 crazy good!
|
 |
Stunning
|
 |
This is clever.
|
 |
good one $5
|
 |
I would agree with KITT over the batmobile. 5$ either way, though. :)
|
 |
stick KITT behind the ghostbusters vehicle and you'll be even better. still, lovin' it all the way. i've hated almost all of the submissions for this competition until now. definately $5!
|
|
i sthat the A-Team van in the back?
way cool! |
 |
Fantastic design. Easily the best 80's one i've seen! And glad that prime isn't in his rubbish lorry form!
|
 |
beautiful. i would give my left foot to own the A-Team van.
|
 |
Jemae on Apr 02 '07 PERFECTTTTT! 5$! =)
|
 |
ahaha that isnt the moto from tron is it?! love it.
|
 |
$10 just for using airwolf!
|
|
I gave you a $5 just to hope that you'll add KITT back.
|
|
also I think children of the 80s identify the batmobile more than the blues brother car (it took me a second) - so I question which one to remove.
|
 |
What is that big metal turnip?
|
 |
Where the hell is KITT?
|
|
is the 'turnip' the ET spaceship?
|
|
Naw dude, the Blues Brothers car is great.
|
5 days later
|
haha I still don't know what the turnip is.
For a while I thought maybe the homemade spaceship from The Explorers. |
|
grayehound on Apr 11 '07 the turnip is the spacecraft from ET
looks like taking out KITT wasn't such a hot idea afterall. then again, everyone would've been asking where the General Lee was... |
 |
This is one of the greatest designs I've ever seen. Nostalgic AND artistic, a rarity... It would be a sin for threadless not to print this. 5$ and if there was a 10$ it would be there.
For anyone confused, I think I know all of the refernces (from left to right, generally): the A-Team Van (the A-Team) General Lee (Dukes of Hazzard) ET's spaceship (ET) the Dolorien time machine (Back 2 the Future) the light-cycle race bike (Tron) Airwolf (Airwolf) Optimus Prime (Transformers) The Batmobile (Batman with Adam West & Burt Ward) The Bluesmobile - '74 Dodge Monaco with Magnum 440 squad car package (The Blues Brothers) Ecto-1 (Ghostbusters) Ferrari 308 GTS (Magnum P.I.) |

Mikko Terva on Apr 16 '07 I didn't get to vote on this, but I just wanna say - I'll buy this when they print it!
|
 |
descartes, The Batmobile is the one from the 1980s movie with Michael Keaton, not the one from the Adam West TV series and movie.

kennybanzai on Jul 19 '07 Are there any copywriting issues I wonder? I think this would sell out quick! If threadless never prints it you could definately sell to some company for a good price out there...threadless should print this!
