I agree the Blind Box idea's kinda lame, I wouldn't want to chance getting one i didn't want
ISABOA
   ISABOA on Feb 01 '08
have to agree about blind box - I would end up with baby ori and be pissed -
SheepMan22
SheepMan22 on Feb 01 '08
yea and then what if you buy more then one you could end up with the same ones
SheepMan22
SheepMan22 on Feb 01 '08
and i don't like the fact that you have a fake account for each one...thats kinda weak

i love that you don't know what you're getting until you get it.
it's so spontaneous. (:

asdf1239 on Feb 01 '08
Why is this a good idea? None of these faces is well drawn, so turning it into a grab bag just compounds the misery.
SheepMan22
SheepMan22 on Feb 01 '08
yea but what happens when you wanna buy more then one and you get duplicates? i bet you wouldn't think its a good idea then

so that's what these silly accounts are about

it's a gimmick, but the art/look of the shirt is fun
SheepMan22
SheepMan22 on Feb 01 '08
ha thats good stuff...just so you know im not bashing your designs or anything im just letting it known i don't like the part about getting a random one instead of picking the one you want
Bio-bot 9000
Bio-bot 9000 on Feb 01 '08
This idea is brilliant. great presentation, great characters, great looking shirts even! i can imagine two strangers walking past each other, one wearing a Huey, one wearing a Dug, and they totally high five each other! Friends made! Or someone wearing Lord Smugginbottom casting a mock sour glance at a Horton. it's like a social role playing game that can exist anywhere.

Iminabag
Iminabag on Feb 01 '08
its cute, but the idea seems to want to change threadless into more about the teetons than other designs, that pisses me off, but what if I bout one shirt and would like another one is there a way I can specify that I don't want the one I just bought
webzda

They look decent enough for what they are, but there's no way I'd cough up any cash without knowing what I'd get.

You are my favourite Dog.
Great concept!
tesco
   tesco on Feb 02 '08
didnt think people would be this picky... if you'd wear one surely you'd wear them all. Also if you read it, the pink one is girls only. Fun idea, 5.
nonolarson
   nonolarson on Feb 02 '08
I totally want the moustache Lord. And only this one.
ElizaBee
ElizaBee on Feb 02 '08
I think it's a fun idea, but I have to agree, I wouldn't pay for something that I couldn't chosse (not more than a quarter, anyway). Not only do you risk getting one you don't want, but you risk getting the same one twice if you want more than one.

I like them, but I want to pick which ones I get (Gem and Horton).
ElizaBee
ElizaBee on Feb 02 '08
Is that facial hair on the baby?

what if threadless tracked which one you ordered before so that when a second order went through it was impossible for you to get the same one.

gem reminds me of muno from yo gabba gabba
Vindemiatrix
Vindemiatrix on Feb 02 '08
This is pretty cool, but out of them all, I'd only wear gem.

However if it gets printed I'm sure there'll end up being loads of exchanges, like with Home Is Where The Heart Is...

i think theyre all cute.. id wear most of em, and i think their all great for kids. i think the idea of the blind box is fun but only if it were cheaper, i wouldnt want to pay $17 plus s&h for something that may not be my favorite
eschliff
eschliff on Feb 03 '08
ps. id be more likely to buy it if the pink one werent an option

supersweet! Love the concept & the 'Mr Man' simplicity of the illustrations.
staffell
staffell on Feb 04 '08
Honestly, I like the idea, but the illustrations are not great at all. If more work had been put into each individual graphic, this could have been killer.
staffell
staffell on Feb 04 '08
and also, Dug reminds me of Bender
CatastropheCat
CatastropheCat on Feb 04 '08
love them, but i think the blind box might complicate things. I agree with hogboy about the simplicity of the designs that makes this great

such a funny idea!
laodom
laodom on Feb 05 '08
i only would want horton, smugginbottom, or dog.... but seeing as they're all more difficult to receieve idk if i'd spend the $. but they're cute = \
BrandonB11
BrandonB11 on Feb 05 '08
why not just make them all equal chance of getting??? cuase the ones id want are the least likely to get

still decent enough design although the grab bag has been done (check ross' select, youd get a diffrent color bird by chance)

akaMazi
akaMazi on Feb 05 '08
Okay, maaaaybe this concept would work if the shirts actually cost, say, five dollars. I, like many people, would never go into it blindly, but five bucks isn't much of a risk. (Although, frankly, I wouldn't wear any of them anyway.) Or... if they were only printed in kid's sizes AND you could specify, for example "anything but pink."

Good idea, but alas, I don't see it working here.
bobobob1230
bobobob1230 on Feb 05 '08
Ya, i like the idea. Shouldn't cost much to print, shouldn't cost much.
KATIE..
KATIE.. on Feb 05 '08
i like most of the faces, but if i got baby ori or horton o'd be mad. i think you should just let people buy what they want. or make ones that everybody (or more people at least) likes more. because although i wouldnt mind getting horton, baby ori is ugly. sorry no offence.
peppersagooddog
peppersagooddog on Feb 06 '08
such a shame i can't buy some of these. i got over grab bags when i quit going to chuck e. cheese. hmm and i think my son would be pissed of he got a pink shirt... nope, not a chance unless i can choose. too bad.
Huey Teeton
Huey Teeton on Feb 06 '08
Dudes!!! Baby Ori would be girls only, as it says under 1/20. Girls only.

Thanks for the comments on us so far. I think we are fun.
vinnylo
vinnylo on Feb 06 '08
this is great, but i think its a little too much more threadless to pick and print all of these. it just seems like a big hastle. but good luck! o, and i hope i dont get pink or the orange, or i want my money back! lol
vinnylo
vinnylo on Feb 06 '08
o it does say girls only

Maybe you should start your own company.

I doubt Threadless will embrace eight different designs in one sub.
percey
percey on Feb 06 '08
PEOPLE! I dont know if you live in caves or just extremely rural towns, but black box toys are a huge booming success for companies and artists alike.
From KidRobot to Joe Ledbetter. Amazon and Urban Outfitters (not that i support those, BUT!) How about those fantastic TokiDoki designs? Or Shawnimals? Or Quee's? Just search black box in Google and see all the pages of things that come up. Go into almost any comic book store. Then take a look at the ones on rotofugi.com and see all the artist that have worked on different ones. Its an amazing thing!!
I dont know if this is going to be printed but what i DO know is that Threadless is a company that prides itself on knowing what is artist friendly and not only BEING a company that lets artists have a creative outlet but supporting those others that do as well. And Black boxed toys are (clearly) a great way to do that. I think that if Threadless sees a way to have more interaction with designing, or a new and exciting opportunity for the shirts they print they will not be opposed to that sort of idea.
This is a fantastic idea. PART OF THE FUN and EXCITEMENT. You may have a favorite. Why not instead of saying you will only buy it if you can get 'the one you want', look at the revolution side of this design and be excited to be a part of something new and exciting for Threadless, and then take ownership of the one you get, play along with his blogs, be friends with him on facebook. whatever it is.
Don't just wear your shirt. Enjoy it. Talk about a revolution.
Great design. Simple yet effective. Great submission. Good luck. $5

I wasn't really happy with the grab bag aspect either, but after reading all the comments and different takes on it, I think I really like the idea! I don't want a chance of Ori either, but even though I'm a girl, I only buy guy's shirts so I guess I don't have to worry about that. LOL

So, in conclusion, after much thought.... $5!!!
tangleddreams
tangleddreams on Feb 08 '08
Oh, and I wanted to agree with what Vindemiatrix said about exchanges. If you get one you don't want, sign on Threadless and find someone who has one you DO want. Swapping galore! :)

vinnylo, thats a character from some kids tv show. Idk what its called, but its extemely weird. But it was what I thought of when i saw these designs. But other than that resemblance, I love this! I love Gem, and all others except the purple one. Thankfully I wouldn't have to worry about getting the pink one.
