Anyone else excited about the Uniqlo deal?

Post by Chuquita » Sat Jan 16, 2010 3:13 am

I'm excited at the idea that it means I might be able to actually buy this shirt:

What from http://www.cospa.com/itemlist/id/00087/mode/series would you like to see this deal make available outside Japan?

I certainly might buy it if it was available at a local retailer. I'm lazy and I don't like ordering anything off the internet. I think the Goku and Kuririn training shirt looks awesome, and if I saw it somewhere that I shop at, I'd pick it up.

Interessting.... I've been seeing some of these sweet Capsule Corp shirts popping up on ebay for a while now, this looks awesome. It would be so cool to see some of this crazy shit actually available over here, in stores o.o Awesome.

I know they are a unique piece of Dragon Ball Merchendise to own, but how many of you would actually wear these T-shirts out?

I would. Well, maybe not at first, but at some point I would give in to the little otaku inside my head and start wearing it to school, despite the obvious drawbacks.

I would really be able to wear the "You need more training" t-shirt. Goku and Kuririn are barely noticeable, and the colors are sweet, so I doubt that anyone would care that it's a "cartoon" t-shirt.
But the Piccolo one...no way José.

I'm always excited, but nothing is ever coming to our country...... So, I'm only buying some of things via internet, mostly manga, comics, books and DVD's when I'm paying almost the same or half of the original price for shipping fees.
And since I'm a lot to music, I'm downloading it from iTunes because I can't shrink CD into my mp3 and I'm free from shipping fee.

I'm not that excited about these T-shirts, it's only pictures printed on textile by thermo-transfer. You can do T-shirts like this by yourself in Adobe In-design (edit: picture in Ilustrator of course, or if you prefer any different vector editor) and then buy T-shirt you need and go and merge it with thermo.

I'm now excited from Boba Fett sweatshirt I got.

DragonBall was so mainstream that I don't know of anyone who'd snicker at me if I were to wear a DragonBall shirt. They'd probably all nostalgia and be like "Rock on, dude!" lol

I'd wear the "You still need more training" t-shirt to the gym. The shirts Funi puts out now, while nice, are far too loud for me to wear outside of using them as pajama-shirts. That's why I'm excited about this deal.

There are shirts that may come out of this deal that would be my ideal type of DB shirt. I've seen other old animated series get shirts like that and I've wanted DB ones of my own.


I'd also buy the senzu beans shirt where Goku's doing a pose after eating one, and the shirts that have Capsule Corp logos on them. That's what I've been waiting for. X3

OH MY GOD!

For starters, the Red Ribbon Army baseball style shirt, the "Goodbye Tensan" hoodie, the Capsule Corp hoodie, the RRA hoodie, and the creepy Freeza shirt. Epic store.

Did look around but didn't see mention of this elsewhere on the forum but the Uniqlo shirts have started to arrive, and are now in store ( or at least the central London one). I picked up the Red Ribbon mech one, and a Dr Slump one, there are also One Piece ones in the collection too.
This blog shows a few of them, by no means all the designs and there are a few alt colour schemes for them all.

That's SO cute. Would you know what U.S. stores would be carrying these?

I do really like these, but I don't know if I'll be able to get around to getting any of them.
