Heh, that IS pretty cool... I wonder who the car owner(s) is/are. :)
I think it would be even better if it was the Blacktron logo, cuz of the
black and trans-red! (Notice I haven't revealed what we're talking about here)

Wow, that is awesome! I wonder if it is painted on, or perhaps a magnetic
sticker or something. And those Classic Space shirts, where in the world did
they get those? Any in 3XL? ; )

That design is truly stellar! Where on earth did they get that
logo painted?! Perhaps this one was a custom job, or maybe a sticker
version. Where did those shirts come from, too?
Any chance Lego.com would get smart and sell merchanside like this?
You know...I think they would make quite an excellent profit off a venture
like this, and the start up capital needed wouldn't be as bad as, say,
cheesy minifigure keychains (which I despise, for that matter.)
Maybe If Lego strayed from their current gear, and went towards the
direction of posters, flags, and other items of that sort, where you could
pick out the logo you wanted, and they would print it, now that would be
tight! (and they
would probably make a nice profit, theoretically) Needless to say, they
would probably sell like hotcakes!
Personally, I would like to get a wolfpack logo on mine, or even a blacktron
insignia. Printed on a flag or poster would look awesome, especially in my
Lego Room.
Just my two brickz...

Hi there,
herrminator (1267) here. The logos (yes, there's another sticker on the
right door:-) on my car are just magnetic, you can remove them easily. And
you should remove them before you'll have a ride on a German motorway - max.
speed the signs can resist is 70 mph, and the Audi runs much faster...
The stickers and shirts were made by the German Lego® Fan "zany", the left
one of the two black spacemen on the picture. Just ask him for shirts and
stickers, perhaps he can print some more. Mail: zany@brickworld.de
Regards,
Fred

Hi David,
Hi David,
your doubled posting is very fitting here (at least for people who know Fred):

P.s.: I love those T-shirts (and will order two of them asap - if ever
possible) And the Audi TT is really cool. (In fact both items are even much
better in real live - shiny gold surfaces...)

Heh heh... if I weren't a teacher, I'd seriously think about doing something
like that. My car is red, so I guess I'd have to go with the MTron logo.
This is a little bit off Larry's subject, but fits with the classic space
logo... has everyone seen these cartoons at FBTB?

That is so cool! We don't have to worry about 70 MPH around here in Indiana,
I am lucky if most people follow the 50 / 55 limits around here.

Not a chance. I think all the clothing is "designed" (branded) by
the folks at LEGO Brand Retail. They're probably limited to current
themes. The only two ways I can think of this happening are:
1. LEGO Direct produces some classic space logo merchandise (possibly
in connection with a set re-release).
2. LEGO licenses the classic space logo to a third party that produces
and sells the merchandise (with royalties going back to LEGO).

Whoa! I could easily imagine myself driving a blue Volkswagon beetle
with the Black Falcon crestr painted to the sides! Seriously,
that would be tight!
But, then again, The prosects of that happening are zero for me. :)
Alas, that's too bad, eh?

Hey, we got college students ranging from a Geo Metro with hydralics, to
girls driving 5 below, to some guy doing 82 downtown in a 25MPH ZONE (Speed
LIMIT? talk about breaking the law!)!
I'd love it though! On my car, ummm, not sure what would look good!

Yeah, sorry about that. I accidentally hit the post button before I meant to.
I hit stop, and I thought it was in time, but I guess not. Anyway, when I
posted for what I thought was the first time for that message, I found that the
accidental button click had already posted it. Oops.

Hitting stop will only help if it's still at the "contacting host"
phase. Once it has started to transfer to the host, you're sunk,
because most of the delay is actually in the generating and
transferring the HTML response back to you. All you'll really "stop"
is your browser's displaying of the response. This is a basic fact of
HTTP, not anything specific to do with LUGNET.

That's sort of a combination of the two:
3. LEGO Direct produces and sells t-shirts designed by fans.
That would work too! Whichever way it works out, I hope we end up with
true "first person, I am the minifig" shirts, not shirts with cool designs
that just include pictures *of* minifigs or logos (which brand retail makes
today).
P.S. the magnetic classic space sign would be pretty cool too!

LOL, yeah. All that would be really cool.
Did you notice the date from the original T-Shirt post?
I would love to make more shirts, but then they would just sic the lawyers
on me again. :^(
