Not cool. Its not such a funny shirt when the RROD strikes you or a loved one. 1 out of every 8 people have had their lives or a relatives life ruined by this unforgiving disease. Just playing. Cool shirt.
Would have liked to see the Grim Reaper Red Ring that this was put up against in vote... but stilllllllllll FANTASTIC!!! I had my original Xbox red ring on me back in the day...
Alright, this dood is an amazing artist. I love the blending of pop culture. The storm trooper/watchmen mash up is incredible. Not sure if it's been printed yet but is soooooooooooo needs to be if for no other reason than it would make my buddies insanely jealous.
love the shirt and i got it, love the side art (would buy them if put on the site) really looking foreword to seeing more from this artist on this site.
NICE! I should order a few and give them to my friends who are die-hard 360 fans! LOL! PS3 RULES! I WOULD LOVE TO BUY THE Stormtrooper Watchmen Smiley face shirt if it were to be available here!
Even though I've never experience first-hand the devastating power of the RROD (knock on wood), I still love this shirt. Sort of a banner for sea-faring, intelligent 360's who've taken to sailing the 7 seas looking for hormone-crazed 14-year-olds to frustrate into apocalyptic nerd rage at being unable to exude their l33tness for the rest of us to be awed and humbled by.
Also, I would gladly pay $100 for that rock-fingers shirt. Too freaking cool, dude.
I like my 360 and I've had 3 RRODs. I like the idea but not the design that much. I really dig the stormtrooper. Did I miss that one or will you do it in the future?
It's called the Red Ring of Death (Or RRoD.) It's a known issue with Xbox 360 video game consoles, they very often will randomly one day up and stop working. When this happens, the front of the xbox shows those red rings instead of the usual green when it turns on (or rather, when it doesn't turn on.) I think a few months ago Gameinformer or some magazine had some statistics showing how over 50% of manufactured Xboxes have actually failed by now. It's become sort of an internet meme by now as well, though you can always send it to Microsoft and get it fixed (which I hear takes WEEKS for them to get back to you...)
The humor in the shirt comes from the crossbones, which represents a jolly roger or "skull and crossbones" effect, which also represents death (as in, your 360 died lol.)
SnowDog said: It should be stipulated that you have to earn the right to wear this one - I just got mine back from repair so yea, ordering this shirt now
Haha! That's why I'm not gonna buy it. I don't feel like I've earned it. Although...it happened to my best friend. Actually, both of my best friends. smurf, I should buy it for them.
But then again, I'm sitting here thinking to myself that I've had my Xbox for over a year and a half, and nothing. I should buy it and keep it in my closet just in case that grave day arrives. Then I'll earn the right to wear it.
Instant buy, didn't even have to think about it! This is to remind myself of the 3 separate times I had to send my Xbox away thanks to the evil red rings.
Must get! I got royally screwed over by Microsoft when I got the RROD, and have not touched the system since... I will happily wear this (and probably touch it up with some glow in the dark paint, too).
Hey, I own and love my 360 and this is still an instant buy for me. Owning the console doesn't make it any less funny - even when I have in fact suffered that blasted red ring.
And just for the record, not defending Microsoft here - but when it happened I had my new Xbox within a week. They f'ed up, to be sure, but they definitely know how to deal with a problem.
Watchmen and Starr Warrs. Two of my favorite things. And the Bealtes shirt is killer also. I'm a huge fan of this artist, but I'm more of a computer game player, not so much with the game consoles.
Really said: Holy smurf the "rock on" shirt in the side art is amazing.
Also anyone remember when The Lord of the Rings was a book?
lords of the rings was a book? Books... Lol... Sorry had to... But then again they did release that giant when the movies came out.
I recommend Robert Jordan to the book lovers :)
LOVE Robert Jordan. I'm only on book 5 but I still consider myself a full-fledged WOT nerd...
Seeing this tee makes me remember when my xbox crapped out and brings all those dreadful emotions flooding right back. Cool tee but I'd rather forget the red ring!
I fee like every time I come to TeeFury I am bamboozled as to why they choose to print the one that they do. I haven't seen anything I like on here in ages.
all this talk about books makes me want to point out that the timothy zahn starStars books were better then any movie

oh man.
wasn't planning on getting this, but then i started reading through the comments.
and it took me back to that fateful day almost 2 years after i had gotten my 360 on the day it came out, when it finally RRoD'ed on me.
only happened once so far for me, but now i've got the MW2 version with the Jasper chip so i should be fine.
bought.
Yaaay! I've been waiting for this. Have to wait until later, though, so I can make sure I get the right size for my luvah. Getting one for him and myself. It's ironic, too, because we just sent in his Xbox to get repaired for this, while my Xbox has to be beaten in order to read the disks. Such wonderful pieces of equipment. ;)
Just had to say how much I truly love this shirt again!
And got my grab bag today! Thanks for not sending me any duplicates! Out of the 9 shirts I got, I only don't like one of them.. Also got some gems highlighted by the Soylent Green zombie shirt and the birds through the tree canopy. Very happy, thanks Teefury!
also' I have close friend who produced this Add for a godaddy.com contest, give him a 5 because its awesome. in fact if a mod could edit this into my side bar that would be awesome
http://videos.godaddy.com/super-bowl-video-contest.aspx?vid=828&isc=gdbb1586&ci=17888
he always help me get the word out about my shirts so I am returning the favor
totarry just bought one, and ironically my 360 died on me 3 days agao, R.I.P. little buddy, you will be replaced soon....i hope *stares at wallet* -__-
cool shirt. also please print the StarStars / watchman shirt. also the rock on looks cool (I like art that extends all over the shirt). Dexter shirt is rocking as well.
I absolutely MUST have the Dexter, Stormtrooper, and Abbey Road shirts. Every single one of them. Seriously, I'd buy all three without even thinking of my poor, abused wallet's moaning and whimpering. MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Of course now if you buy the shirt, your xBox wil be cursed
I like the design, but it worries me that if I were to buy it, then my 360 would die shortly after. I waited until last Nov. to finally buy one, but I'm still paranoid about the reliability after all the problems they have had.
Love it. Bought it. Having never gotten a RRoD (my Xbox's only a little over a year old), I hope I didn't jinx myself. I shall be playing "Fable II" this weekend, somehow clutching the controller with crossed fingers.
A word from the curator: Now that Jonah has had a few prints, he's decided to shake up the interview process a bit! This time, instead of me doing the interviewing, Jonah decided that he'd like to be the one asking all the questions. Without further ado...
How did you become a curator to TeeFury? I was approached by TeeFury and asked if I'd like to be involved. They were familiar with my blog, Compete-tee-tion, and they had printed one of my designs in the past, so I think they had the sense that our taste was compatable and that I was someone willing to work hard to get awesome shirts printed. Mostly, though, I was probably just lucky to be in the right place at the right time! Tell us about your website. I started Compete-tee-tion because I wanted to know everything there was to know about the t-shirt contest world. It's intended as a resource for artists, letting them know about new contest opportunities and with reviews of some of the most high profile shirt designs being put out. It's also a lot of fun to write, though it can get pretty time consuming :)
I've since created a couple more sites about shirt-related stuff: TeeMagnet tracks limited edition shirts and PointClickApparel collects information about DTG printing and on-demand apparel sites. Namedrop an underrated t shirt artist you think people should know about. Tough question! There are definitely a lot of artists out there deserving of more recognition. I think I'd have to give the nod to MetaMephisto- he's an amazing artist who has racked up some nice prints in European contests, and I think he's due for some wins in America. Have you personally met any of the other curators in real life? Nope! It's kind of crazy to think about, but I haven't met them in person. Weird since I talk to Jimiyo just about every day! Tell us about Professor von Platypus. Professor von Platypus is a character I started drawing awhile back. I imagine him as being an academic type, learning all kinds of stuff and then teaching it to the rest of the ocean. He can be gruff sometimes, but he's basically a nice guy. What are you turn ons and turn offs? My favorite thing is the world is enthusiasm. I think too many people are cynical about the world, it's a lot more fun when you let yourself get excited and risk disappointment. Probably my biggest pet peeve would be the flip side of that- complaining. It just feels like wasted effort, when that energy could be better spent on making things better. What is the last t-shirt you purchased? Truthfully, it's pretty hard to remember- I impulse buy a lot of shirts, so I usually forget what I've ordered by the time I get them :) So I'll tell you about the last shirt I got in the mail instead- it's The Four DX from Meat Bun (though mine is the white ink on black version). It was part of a Kickstarter reward for supporting the project Kill Screen (I'm reading it now and it's a pretty cool magazine so far!). Lord of the Rings or Star Wars? This is going to be very damaging to my nerd cred, but I've actually never seen Lord of the Rings. I gave it a try, but it didn't capture my interest- the bits I saw seemed to mainly be a lot of walking around. So Star Wars has to be the winner. I'm not a huge fan of the movies, but I do love the characters (except Luke Skywalker, who is awful) and I really enjoyed the game Knights of the Old Republic. What is the most successful shirt you have curated? I think my most successful curation was Hothmas by Aegis- pretty neat because he's a great artist and a really nice guy. Always fun to be able to help nice people succeed! Are walruses the secret love children of elephants and seals? If that's the case, I hope I never see the nature documentary about how it occurs! What is my most attractive feature? Clearly your ability to pick such charming and interesting interview questions :) Teevil or Tbird, whos side are you on? I like to think I'm on both sides! My favorite designs tend to be ones that tell a story, and it doesn't really affect my opinion if the story being told is a new twist on pop culture or something totally imaginary. Interesting work is interesting work, no matter which realm it draws from. I think a lot of the best shirts are both artful and referenced, like one of my all-time TeeFury favorites: Holy Indie Stickup! by Evanimal.
