This is a cute one if you know anything about him as a character… Let her know what you think!

This particular round had two that I have to post. The first is simply because I love the concept and the art. Cute little play on words and you have “Dandy Lions” by Kristen Howdeshell…

Threadless Dandy Lions by Kristen Howdeshell

The other is a design that a comicbook geek like myself just can’t ignore. The old saying goes “crime doesn’t pay”, but as this design reminds us, fighting crime “literally” doesn’t pay. Check out “Fighting Crime Doesn’t Pay” by Stef McFeters…

I was able to finish off my collection of the Rolitoboy French Kiss Series by Toy2R a little while back, but I never got around to getting pictures taken and added to the gallery here on theSpeakEasy.  I love these little guys and I hope they get around to releasing something new from Rolito soon.  It’s been a while, though I’m sure he’s been busy with all his success designing the characters for the Patapon game and it’s coming sequel.

So as I eluded to, the pictures were taken and I’ve now just today added them to the Rolitoland / Rolitoboy gallery along with the Safari series and a few miscellaneous pieces.  Enjoy!

“Do-Re-Mi-Quack!” (designed by Jon Barthell) is by far my favorite shirt design to be released by Threadless in a while! Not to say they’ve not been great recently, I just really like this one. I’ll definitely be stopping by to grab this one when I’m in town for the “Taste of Chicago”…

Check to see if they have it in your size, or check out the whole selection…

This image is of my favorite design from this week’s new selection, called “Smile… My Shadow” by Lim Heng Swee. You can check out all the newest designs here. Great shirt designs and great prices! Check them out…
