Why do I mention this, simple, obsene shirts that seem fun now, more often than not lead to you covering up with your arms while having a little kid staring at you while on line at the market.
Just a friendly heads up is all that is.

Besides if its only the text, you could make it cheaper and quicker yourself.

He does have a point. How many exclusives has Japan and other countries got? How many does the US get? Think of how much money we Americans have had to spend on ebay to get exclusives. Its a T-shirt not some kick ass figure. Hell it aint even a good T-Shirt. If you want something bad enough there are ways to get it. Its called eBay. And be warry of your lingo. Telling people to shut up will get you a message from the moderators. Many of us have found this out the hard way.

Do you know what kind of markup TF toys have up here?
A bloody Voyager at TRU costs about 30$
A deluxe runs me a good 16 to 17 dollars, depending on which store I'm at.
We need sales just to pay sane prices on these toys.
It also takes damn forever for the waves of toys to even get on to store shelves. I'm amazed the movie toys didnt get delayed too.
Furthermore, up here in the Great White North, we don't have all those nice KB exclusives, because we don't have KB at all. So we gotta look out for not only the Japanese exclusives but the AMERICAN ones as well. Shipping charges to Canada from the US are also rather hefty.

With our high dollar you'd think they'd adjust our inflated prices, but no, it still costs $70 plus tax for a Leader-sized figure. WTF? And sales? Reruns? What do OUR stores and OUR TV stations have to do with you?
Back to the topic of toys, if I may. Being a Quebecer sucks because we have to wait for stuff to get translated before we ever see it on our shelves. We often get stuff late, or sometimes not at all. Exclusives? Yeah, like they'd bother to translate those. KB and Target exclusives? Those stores don't even exist in my province. And this is just Quebec, one province of one country getting shafted, not to mention the rest of international (ie: "non-American") fans who get screwed too just because they aren't in the US.
Fans being angry because they can't get their hands on a sought-after, uninteresting, overpriced t-shirt doesn't mean that they are hating you, America, Americans, President Bush, Freedom, or Jesus. People are just annoyed because the States tend to have it easier than most other places.
Now we finaly get something exclusive, not even a good something, and all you guys get pissed!
"Finally"? Read my above comments about not being able to get well, just about ANY exclusive at Quebec retail.

Right, great idea. Pay an arm, a leg, 2 left nuts and a first born child for something already rediculously overpriced. Great thinking, there.

Geez, where the hell did that comment come from? I feel tempted to write "Y'all dun't comes back nao, y'hear?" since perhaps you'd understand me better if I sank to your level, but it wouldn't be right.
You want to get a shirt? You're willing to spend $30+ USD on a t-shirt? You live in the US? Then by all means, get one. But please keep in mind than many international fans can't and aren't too pleased about it.
Oh, and while you're at it, don't forget to hate the American fans who aren't willing to buy an overpriced t-shirt that isn't even that interesting! They must be "muthaf___ers" too, eh?

You'd get a shirt that subtly advertises your fandom, AND you help stop CANCER, but NOOOOO, $30 for a T-Shirt is too much. Cancer? Ah, take a salt tablet.
I'd get one of these if I had the money. Hell, I'd get two.

Well, maybe they should say that in that SFTE post.

I missed this somehow. It's a great cause, but I'd rather just give them the $30 than end up with one of those shirts. I'm sorry, but I just don't like them. Better yet, make a TF shirt worth having, y'know with some sort of movie image (doesn't have to be fancy). I'm surprised that a cancer (or any) chairity would like to be tied to something like this (the shirt being sold). Just seems unusual to me.
