Dtoid Shirts Reprinted: Squidbear's Revenge! photo

It's been a good couple of weeks since I've hamfistedly typed some ridiculous shpeel about how you guys should buy something, and frankly, that's way too long. The infamous Squidbear shirts are back in stock.

Most shirts are printed by applying ink to fabric. This one, however, had the ink sucked out of it. How was this done? I don't know. Probably by a machine or a sorcerer. Maybe both. The point is, the image on this shirt will last as long as the fabric itself. Nothing's going to crack or flake off after too many washes. Also, the fabric is tough enough for a giant adventurer man, but soft enough for a cute tiny lady. (See above image.)

You can buy one on Splitreason.com for under $20 bucks, like, right now.

The front, as you can see, shows Mr. Destructoid and the legendary Squidbear celebrating some some sort of landmark. Possibly a weekend. On the back, there's a little Mr. Destructoid head right below the back of your neck. There are also cocks.

There are plenty more images of the shirt in the gallery. I got Dtoid member gennhaver, AKA my girlfriend Jenn, to model it. You guys should post your own sexy Squidbear supermodel photos in the comments.

If you did indeed draw this yourself, you are quite talented.

The design is awesome, placement on the shirt perfect. I wasn't a big fan of Dtoid shirts before but I like this one. The one color scheme is excellent.

overall, I might have to buy this.

I had just convinced myself not to buy a T-shirt I wanted from there on the basis the shipping was too high. Now, thanks to you, I can get two awesome t-shirts, saving on shipping. I pretty much have to buy them.

*clicks buy button*

Screw you, Scoville.

If I buy the shirt will I get a discount on a shit?

It's a very cool design and it's bound to turn heads, and questions will be asked, and answers will not be able to be given, a logical answer anyways. "Hey what the hell is that" guys asks, Dtoider says "its a squidbear, you know a bear combined with a squid and its with Mr. Destructoid about to celebrate something with champagne" guy quietly walks away.

This really is fantastic easily the best D-toid shirt so far. Any chance that I can get one in XS?

Epic is on to something both with the Squid Bear Shit and open submissions for user created shirts.

As if trying to save money for a 3DS AND an NGP wasn't hard enough; this uber awesome shirt suddenly comes along. Now I have to keep an extra 20$ on the side for this.

Damn you Scoville, damn you to heck.

I've been wanting to purchase a D-Toid shirt for a while now. This just tipped me over the edge. BOUGHT!

I've actually done a little silk screening and I'm a bit confused/intrigued by this "Instead of printing this shirt like normal people, we insisted on having the ink sucked from the fabric itself"
Could you please clarify?

Side note: I spied a destructoid shirt at Disneyland last Sunday.

First of all, fuck you Scoville. (I love you)

Second of all, your cocks suspiciously look like hens.

Lastly, when I get a job I will definitely be purchasing one.

Max I actually think it's awesome, but I think the back graphic is too much. The ink-sucking printing is cool, too. That being said it's so surreal and strange I'd feel like a Cthulhu cultist wearing it in public. Also I'm not sure where the chickens fit in.

The art style is great though, I'd love to see more shirt designs.

Don't suppose you or anyone knows when the vintage Dtoid brown shirt in medium will be back in stock?

Glad you guys like the design, I had fun with it. There's actually an alternate version that's less "bromantic" and more "guyiolent." Maybe if this design sells out, we can run that.

As for getting this done in other sizes -- or put on hats, stickers, frisbees, messenger bags, flashdrives, candles, lotions, etc -- I'm all for it.

And Watermanx is officially not allowed to any party I throw, ever. You can rain on my parade, but you will never shit on my rainbow.

This shirt is radical. Not sure how I feel about small graphic on the back...maybe if it was in the same spot but on the inside. I am not bothered by it enough to not buy a shirt though. awesome work Max!

I still hope to buy one as soon as I get a summer job lined up ... but seriously.

Fuck yeah! Even with the $10 shipping it still lands $10 cheaper than buying a t-shirt from a retailer here haha, no reason not to buy one! :D
