About my design

by AlecGrieco
It is a "PEZ" machine, but not technically by Pez for obvious reasons. the shirt wearer is the head on the machine.

yes i realize that it cant go all the way up to the end on the shirt, just the collar.

out of all my designs, I really want to see this printed.

Please score high, this took forever I think its a pretty cool idea.

Begging people to score high is pretty sad.

needs the lettering on the side

doesn't it usually say 'pez' up the side of the container?

and if you don't feel like infringing on pez's copyright/trademark

at least put something there, need a bit more of a hint as to what it is

Without reading the comments, I thought this was a piece of toast somehow projecting some sort of beam up out of it. Maybe an advanced 21st century jelly beam? Great concept, but they wouldn't be able to print it all the way to the collar anyway (do you know how difficult it would be to get the alignment that accurate?). It's a funny idea, but I just don't think it's something that would be visually obvious (even if they could print it all the way to the collar edge). Maybe I'm wrong. It's a great idea in any case.

without it saying pez on the side it looks kinda silly...cant tell what it is

if you've ever had a pez dispenser you should know what this is. i got it the second i saw it. and its freaking awesome.

even up to the collar, this shirt would be easier to print than a two sided shirt, or a wrap around

jazzs3quence on Jun 17 '05
this is kind of gross if you think about it too long. i mean, basically the shirt is kind of encouraging you to puke candy.



cool idea tho.

sorry, it's a great idea, and i know it took effort, but I just don't think it gets the idea across... i didn't think "PEZ" machine until i read your comment.

This is absolutely fabulous!!! I love PEZ!

I love it and can easily tell it's a PEZ dispenser. But then again, I collect PEZ. Anyways great idea man.

It's pretty cool, but asking to score high means I score low. I'd love my work to get printed also, just like everyone else wants theirs.



Maybe yours will get printed, begging sux tho

I first saw it, and thought it was lame -- a pez dispenser without the head. So I rated it low, but then I saw the title and realized wearing it, you'd be the pez dispenser. Haha brilliant. $4
Bretard
Bretard on Jun 17 '05
Sweet idea. I give it a 5, but not a buy just cuz it's not something I'd wear. But I really like the idea. Very creative.

eternaLbLue286
eternaLbLue286 on Jun 17 '05
yea, alot of people wont get it.

maybe writeing PEZ on the bottom middle.

but not really.

$5.!!1!1!

this shirt is not for those who dont know what it is instantly. I love it and would wear it.

itgirlragdoll3 on Jun 17 '05
I can't believe anyone wouldn't get this...



But anyway...



It'd be funny until some idiots start prying my mouth open, asking for candy.
pezman
pezman on Jun 17 '05
this would go well with my PEZ shirt collection...
jeki
jeki on Jun 17 '05
Maybe add "CANDY" up the side in the same lettering as PEZ is?



That would make it a definate $5.

blandford on Jun 17 '05
I could tell this was a Pez just from the little thumbnail image. I agree it would be better with some embossed letters on the side though. But I'm scoring it high 'cause I like the idea.

are what wolsondesign? you mean people who didnt get it the instant they saw it are not fat and have all their teeth?
AlecGrieco
AlecGrieco on Jun 17 '05
by forever I mean a few hours. It shouldnt have taken long but I am unexperienced in photoshop and basically use it as a "spruced-up" MSpaintshop
WeinerTaco
WeinerTaco on Jun 17 '05
Nice idea. I hate the green though, especially if you're using red. Also, would Pez have any objections to such a shirt being sold? I would think they might.
hannieo
hannieo on Jun 17 '05
I really like it, but I suggest it's a LITTLE less tilted to the side. It shouldn't be, like, facing forward, but almost.

5 regardless.

AlecGrieco on Jun 17 '05
i did rough drawings of turned to the side or head on, head on didnt look right. you really couldnt tell what it was



And as for PEZ caring, not sure, but thats why I left out the brand and if (thats a BIIIIG if) this out of some shear luck gets selected threadless could add what they wish on the side

I can go through a lot of submittions to reach something unique like this.



Good job on representing retro with need.



I hope this gets produced, I would enjoy it :)

chriszichrisz on Jun 18 '05
I love it, but as some people already mentioned, you have to make the whole PEZ idea clearer. There is a PEZ True Type font out there, just write anything in that font next to it...

Lol I love the idea alot, but at first I thought it was toast with a beam up from it too!
Miss Olivia
Miss Olivia on Jun 19 '05
I love the idea. It i just a little difficult t ofigure out what exactly it is without

reading the title.



Otherwise, I'd buy it if I had the money. 5$

Polish this a bit = Threadless make it technically more printable and I'm sure this is a printer. Just that the neck area needs trimming for the screens.

Simple and printable. Really nice one.

TigerJase on Jun 20 '05
Awesome man! Just awesome!



This one is the best I've seen...and I've been looking at designs for the past 30 minutes.



I'd totally buy. $5 fo' sho'!

TigerJase on Jun 20 '05
And for the record...I knew what it was before I even enlarged the thumbnail.
chbeeston
chbeeston on Jun 21 '05
would it come with giant pez you could spit at people? cause that'd be cool.
AlecGrieco
AlecGrieco on Jun 21 '05
you could put a bar of soap in your mouth, thats all I could think of that looks like a big pez

zootsuit
zootsuit on Jun 21 '05
i was uber confused with this shirt when i first saw it. and yes, i'm obsessed with pez, but it's not as immediately obvious with the sub par thinker, pardon the insult everyone, but i'm included.



this is a pretty good idea, but i thnk it would be better if perhaps you had a pez machine with a guy's head on top that looked very realistic, now that would be funny, especially if he had pez coming out of his mouth rather than out of his neck would be absolutely hilarious!! I think it would actually have a really good chance of getting printed too!
fireant202
fireant202 on Jun 21 '05
i like it. i think sumthing along the side spoofing the PEZ font (the little rectangles) would be cool and help notify ppl wat it is. also the evergreen color is kinda ugly against the red stand.
AlecGrieco
AlecGrieco on Jun 22 '05
putting a head on it would take more than 4 colors

turkeymonkey on Jun 22 '05
it took me reading your post to understand what it was. i thought it was candy melting up.

yeah..i didnt think of that! chocolate would be Sweet!

I think it would look odd on some people. Me included. I dunno, it's strange.
pandabwhite
pandabwhite on Jun 23 '05
I didn't understand what this was at first. I thought it was a comic representation of someone's jaw dropping actually.



I realize you can't put PEZ on the side, but what about a wrapper on the side of the thing? And a little PEZ candy as well? That might help clear it up.



I love the idea, though. Who wouldn't want to be the head on a PEZ dispenser? :)

Hahaha, that's totally awesome. It's true that little PEZes might help identify it. Also, the PEZ would have to come out of your neck, not your mouth. XD (Not that that has anything to do with the design.)
