Great work but VW probably won't allow it, they are pretty strict.

In addition to the above comments, there was a shirt titled Flower Power that featured an early model VW Beetle. Due to some legal action or threatening or prodding by VW, they had to stop selling that shirt.




I posted this here earlier today. Crazy.

This is definitely fine to get printed, it's a parody and there are no VW logos on the illo. Awesome work.

this is great. I'd like it even more if the antenae, mandible and eyes came right out of the yellow car body instead of underneath it.

this reminds me of an old ghostbusters toy.



it was a yellow bug that transformed into a green praying mantis thing.

Such a fun design. I'd like it if there was a man or family in the car either nonchalantly inside driving or freaking out because they didn't realize there was a gigantic monster underneath their hood.

Way nice, if VW allows, I'd stick with that nice "ghetto blue" color (that's how I see it)

Doesn't matter. Glennz's Flower Power (R.I.P.) was a parody and had no logos, but featured what's pretty obviously a VW Beetle.



In a nutshell, VW's budget for copyright lawyers is infinitely larger than Threadless', so it's no big mystery why the shirt got pulled. It's not a question of whether Glennz's design was legitimate parody, it's a question of whether Threadless could afford to defend it.



Booooo VW! Boooooo!

the title is funny, just because threadless had a shirt up with the exact same name a few months back, and it was graffiti heaven. It's just funny that I might ave 2 shirts with the same name :p

Very nice textures, colors, and linework, especially on the legs. Anyone ever read 'The Metamorphosis' by Franz Kafka? P.S. Threadless wouldn't have approved this submission if they were too concerned about copyright infringement.
