As some of you might remember from last year, I handed out quite a few free t-shirts at BotCon 2006. I made another limited batch of Seibertron.com tshirts that I will be handing out for free to people who regularly visit our site. One of these days maybe I'll wise-up and start charging for these shirts but I really enjoy handing them out to the fans that I talk to at the conventions. I've only got about 50 shirts that I plan on handing out ... so make sure you find me on Wednesday or Thursday next week to get your hands on one. I'm hoping that I can get a bunch of us to wear the shirt to the movie's premiere next week. That might be a stipulation as to who receives a shirt. Hmm ... :grin:

Transformers News: Seibertron.com 2007 TShirt unveiled! Free @ BotCon! Only 50 available!

Oh yeah ... almost forgot to give a big special thanks to my good friend and staff member Starscream who came up with this year's design, as well as the upcoming Seibertron.com redesign (just in time for the site's 7 year anniversary next week). Whoops. I said it out loud. Thanks again Starscream! I really appreciate all of the hard work you put into the redesign and the new tshirt. Both look great!

I love free t-shirts!

I'm not able to make the movie premire at the show though...
Can I trade a beer for one instead?

Now we're talking! I'd certainly be up for that. Make sure you find me by Friday though. Free shirts go pretty fast. But I don't just give them out to people who just ask for one ... I've got a series of rigorous questions that I ask to make sure that I know the person visits the site.

I'm planning on making a 2nd edition later this summer with a purple planet. This second batch is intended for whoever on the staff was unable to attend BotCon and then I might sell the rest here on the site. If it goes well enough, I might keep making more.

I'd be happy to wear it to the premiere, Ryan. I will try and find you on Wednesday.

You mean instead of the white font? Probably not because of cost. I get charged $15 for each color used regardless of how many shirts that I make, which is why I didn't do the purple planet ones this time.

Right on.

Just look for the suave looking fellow with a beer in one hand and a seeminly underage chinese woman in the other.

(She's 25, but occasionally gets carded for rate R movies.)

Dang, man, that's a sweet shirt. I'd gladly wear that to the premiere.
Perchance, will there be XLs available? And where will you be on Thursday so's I can shake the hand of the owner of the best TF news site?

You know I need one of those shirts bud. Shame I'm not going to the screening. I'm more than certain I'll see you there though. Have any large this time around? Heh. Oh and I guess count me in for the beer thing like CP. Hopefully I can buy you both a drink.

My wife gets the same thing. I even had someone come up to us when she was 8 months preggo, at age 28, and tell me how it was "disgusting for an older guy like you to be with a teenager, and worse to get her pregnant".

Funny, considering I am only 50 WEEKS, a.k.a. less than a year, older than her.

I love stupid a-holes.

Hey man ... spell it right or I'll sue you for misrepresenting my website. J/K

I definitely would never do such a thing nor do I think that I could do such a wrongful thing.

I had a long email exchange with my Dad today about Seibertron.com merchandise. He really wants to start up a Seibertron.com store to sell all of this merchandise. I'm not sure how to make it profitable for us and cheap enough to make it worth everyone's while so they'll but a shitload of this stuff, but we'll figure out a way. My Dad is really interested in doing this (it was his idea) so we'll see how soon this happens. I'm almost willing to let him make all of the money on the products so long as he's shipping them out. He pays for all of the products, he can make whatever money he makes on selling the stuff. I really don't have the time to do it nor do I want to be doing that stuff. I think it would be a great partnership ... I get free advertising out of it essentially.

Ryan, the real money is to be made not so much in the t-shirt profits but from being able to write off expensives from the business.

Well, truth be told, I'd love some gear, now if it helps, I have a friend who has a full industrial silkscreening set up and no job, I also did some add work for Russel Athletic and now have a pretty good conection for plain T-shirts and stuff.

With shipping the way it is today and the ability to send and recieve images instantly, to get a product line started for anything, its just a matter of the right contacts.

Talk to me!
