Mass Effect T-Shirt Back In Stock

I totally was into this shirt at launch, too. I went to the site just now, but my size, Large; is already sold out. Probably because of this blog article! Oh well, I would probably get raped on courier shipping with tracking number that apparently USPS doesn't offer and extra duty charges from FedEx's privateer depot. (They let you have the package as soon as it comes into Canada, but they send you an invoice in the mail for the duty afterwards which is many times higher than what USPS and Canada Post charge.) MANY TIMES. I ordered some clothes from Bungie during the support the flood month promotion but the phoney FedEx duty charges were 1.5 times the cost of my $120 order. (Not even including the difference in exchange rate between US and Canada back then). I tried to email Bungie to ask nicely if they could ship me another rather large order of stuff VIA USPS but they wrote me a rude letter back and then when I responded politely to that letter they refused to write me back.. Thanks for being big crap-heads Bungie!

It might not increase street-cred, but it sure does look sweet.

I'll sport one. Thanks, Mark!

For those that own it:

I am really interested in this (as you all should be), and would be ordering it right now if I didn't have a typical nerd-in-media build (overly skinny, not too tall) so there are often times when smalls are not small enough for me. Any word on how they fit vs. size?

That is a pretty sweet T-Shirt.... I would agree it would be better if it didn't say Mass Effect, cuz then we wouldn't be totally pegged as nerds, but I really want this shirt regardless@Deadeyereborn:

They were throwing similar shirts into the crowd at PAX - I got three :) Those don't have the command stripe on the shoulder though. Actually, I'm wearing that shirt right now.

Thank goodness for Casual Friday.

Shirt design = cool.
Wearing a corporate logo = retarded.

I would totally purchase this shirt if I didn't always wear business shirts over my t-shirts. :/

I got mine the first day they were offered. Nice and comfy, runs a little small (it's American Apparel IIRC) so check the measurements chart if you aren't sure, but very flattering. Too bad it's winter so I can't really wear it.

The in-joke stuff is the best. My wife got me an "Umbrella Corporation" jacket with just the text and logo, no mention of Capcom or Resident Evil, and I've gotten a couple of very impressed compliments.

Ordered mine as well. Been a huge fan of Mass Effect since I read the novel. I guess I'm a Mass Effect junkie *sigh*. All I need now is light armor.

I don't particularly think this looks too good. It reminds me of the free polo's and t-shirts you get from attending ridiculous conferences or meetings with the logo in the corner. Anybody else get that vibe?

Would have bought it on impulse, but all of the sign in bullshit just killed it. Maybe later.

I agree, Mark. The shirt looks nice enough, but the logos kind of ruin it. I'd even let the bioware logo stay on since it seems subtle, but the "Mass Effect" print on the base of the neck needs to go.

I just love the product description:

This spacey shirt is required wearing for all those times when you need to talk a robot into blowing itself up, take dubious advice from an imaginary super model/sentient machine, or have your hand cut-off by your angry, angry asthmatic dad.

If you don't like the logos, you can wear something to cover it. Maybe a cape! That won't look geeky at all.

How was my experiment in conveying sarcasm through italics? Effective or not?

I too wish that it was made without the logos. Their is really no need to have them on their, and all they do is ruin an otherwise subtle and intelligent design.
