Oddworld t-shirts, this time for real
 
http://www.insertcoinclothing.com/bl...rld-after-all/
:

The first design is ‘New Yolk City’, inspired by the largest conurbation you romp around in the game. Taking its visual style from the wild wild west – and incorporating a gloriously wide-eyed Clakker – this iconic design is the perfect souvenir after a journey around the Western Mudos!

The second design is ‘Sekto Springs’, which is based upon the 100% ‘authentic’ beverage at the heart of Stranger’s adventure. Refreshing and with a little hint of continental style, this tee is a salute to the world in which the game is set.
Oddworld’s getting some official t-shirts at long last! Two Stranger’s Wrath t-shirts designed by Insert Coin, made in advance of the HD remake release. They’re not available to purchase yet, but the blog post says they’ll available “very soon”.

They do free worldwide delivery too, which is nice.

I forgot about the fake shit that we were teased with. BUT I ARE EXCITE FOR THIS! I think I'd get the Sekto Springs one, I really like the logo. It's nice and crisp.

Here are the designs:

In my opinion the New Yolk City one is pretty funny, but the Sekto Springs one is pretty boring.

Mistress of Oddworld 09-10-2011 05:43 AM

That news just made my day.

I now can wear something that officially advertises Oddworld.
I don't care how much those shiny garments cost, I WANT THEM ALL. Omnomnom.

jumper 09-10-2011 06:09 AM

Except it doesn't really advertise Oddworld. If you actually get the reference, you undoubtedly already know about Oddworld. (Although I wouldn't be surprised if there were a small Oddworld logo somewhere, say behind the neck at the top.)

STM 09-10-2011 06:41 AM

Is it bad for me to want AO and AE t-shirts over these ones? Meh, these are pretty sick.

Crashpunk 09-10-2011 08:08 AM

I'm not very fussed about them designs at all. If they make some Abe's Oddysee/Exoddus designs i'll be more intrested.

erwinraaben55 09-10-2011 08:20 AM

Not black? Not for me

Wil 09-10-2011 09:05 AM

Considering JAW is working on Stranger's Wrath HD at the moment, it makes sense that there are Stranger tees at the moment.

STM 09-10-2011 09:06 AM

better? http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qI1jDykcXo..._t_shirt_6.jpg

Dynamithix 09-10-2011 09:53 AM

How's that related to Oddworld?

Manco 09-10-2011 09:58 AM

It’s a joke at erwin’s expense.

Wil 09-10-2011 10:22 AM

It's funny because of how prefering to wear black means you're emo.

STM 09-10-2011 10:24 AM

Or a goth.

jumper 09-10-2011 10:34 AM

Or a vicar.

*cough*

If anything, this has worked as great advertising. I browsed through the shirts on their website and ended up buying three of them, and I'll undoubtedly buy at least one of these two.

Sekto Springs 09-10-2011 10:37 AM

I also prefer black, but I'm not getting these on the pretense that the colors are plain awful. Not saying the shirts are bad, just not my taste.

erwinraaben55 09-10-2011 12:39 PM

I am neither Emo nor Goth, but I prefer the style of the Gothic.

But I just don't wear anything that's not black, unless it's work related or so.

JennyGenesis 09-10-2011 01:29 PM

What I want is a black shirt with the Oddworld logo on it, simple.

STM 09-10-2011 01:32 PM

What I want, is for them to sell blue spray paint and brown loin cloths.

JennyGenesis 09-10-2011 01:35 PM

Do you need them to sell that? I'm sure you could get those items elsewhere.

Dynamithix 09-10-2011 01:35 PM

I'd love to have a Soulstorm Brew shirt and a Bonewerkz shirt. Those would be really nice.

STM 09-10-2011 01:37 PM

Actually yes, I'd love an 'x-tra bone' shirt!!

Wasen't there once Soulstorm brew Converses?

Dynamithix 09-10-2011 01:53 PM

Found these by Googling that:

http://kyozokicks.com/wp-content/upl...0/DSC_0061.jpg

Not sure if those are official though.

Manco 09-10-2011 01:59 PM

Considering those bottles of paint in the background, I doubt it.

Dynamithix 09-10-2011 02:00 PM

Haha, lol, just realized that too. Yeah, most likely fan-made.

STM 09-10-2011 02:01 PM

Most likely? You mean...fan-made definitely?

erwinraaben55 09-11-2011 01:15 AM

Official merchandise (like statues etc) is mostly handpainted as well, so some bottles of paint still won't tell for 100% if it was fan made or factory made.

Or maybe this is Lorne his desk? Might still be " fan" made, but I think some real fan would pay alot of money for it if this was true.



But they come from a custom shoe creator that makes alot of game related shoes

Heres his real article about these shoes

Sekto Springs 09-11-2011 09:07 AM

Really, you could make a print of the actual logo with ease.

Manco 09-11-2011 11:00 AM

I hope this is the beginning of a whole range of merchandise. I wasn’t active in the days when OWI was around and missed a lot of stuff, and merch wasn’t common then either.

Sekto Springs 09-11-2011 11:27 AM

I still have a black Abe's Exoddus t-shirt. One of my most prized possessions.

Crashpunk 09-11-2011 12:49 PM

Which one is it? do you mind if you showing it Sekto?

Sekto Springs 09-11-2011 08:03 PM

Both sides have concept art. The front has a mudokon hanging upside-down in a Tear X-tractor with the caption "Odd To The Last Drop". On the back is a flying slig holding a bomb and the caption says "In Odd We Trust".

jumper 09-11-2011 11:51 PM

It would be easier just to show us a picture ;)

Crashpunk 09-12-2011 12:17 AM

It would. But I can imagen it already and it sounds amazing, so you don't have to. :)

God, I want a offical Oddworld t-shirt now.

moxco 09-12-2011 01:12 AM

Would anyone here really go out with their friends in an Oddworld t-shirt? Though I still really would like to own Oddworld clothing even if I won't wear it in public.

What’s so bad about that? It’s no worse than wearing a band shirt.

Glitch 09-12-2011 02:51 AM

insert coin prefer to do oblique references to games; rather than just plonking a great big oddworld logo on the front, they like to advertise the companies inside the actual game.

These two are to coincide with our release of Stranger's Wrath. We'll be sure to get t-shirts released that are pertinent to each of our releases as we go.

Hulaabeo 09-12-2011 03:41 AM

I'm probably getting both of these tees and a Stratgety guide from eBay...

I do like this approach and will probably end up buying that Sekto Springs shirt when it gets released.

That said, I would love to see t-shirts released that are more direct—personally I feel that the art and style is part of the huge attraction of the Oddworld series, and it would be a shame if that wasn’t leveraged in some way.
