Forum:I'm designing Fallout 3 Shirts and Stuff

Rules27 15:49, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm taking my whole Fallout 3 addiction to the next level. I've designed a few t-shirts, hats and stuff and have them up for sale over at CafePress.com

I'll post a couple of pics inthe pictures section. Right now, there are some shirts with a couple of different Moriarty's designs, Dogmeat items, a pink Raiders Are Sexy for the ladies, some Mesmetron gear, and some "Have You Seen My G.E.C.K.?" shirts.

I will be adding to the list. If there's something from Fallout you want on a shirt, just let me know.

Here's t he link: http://www.cafepress.com/SpeedstarDesign

I think the next one is going to be: "My Mom and Dad went to Paradise Falls and alll I got was this stupid Collar" but that's not set in stone.NIX510 19:09, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Interesting...the one in the picture here looks decent. What ideas do you have for after this?--71.126.34.129 19:15, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

I'd love to see a reilly's ranger shirt. Tohugh I must ask, dosn't this count as illegal sue of trademarks? 207.164.136.6 19:26, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

OK, Reilly's Rangers is on the list. As for the trademark issue, I don't believe it is infringing. I've seen others like BOS, enclave, Vault number stuff etc. From what I've seen from Bethesda, I don't think they'd have a problem. However, if I get a cease and desist, I'll play along.

Make a ghoul mask.User:Kill the overseer!

Actually, if you're profiting from the sale of these without giving anything to Beth or having the right to do so, you will most likely get a cease and desist. That's what happened with the guy who made the Pip-Boy Blackberry theme. Broeman 00:18, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Wow, these are some pretty good t-shirts. And i would love to see a Cl.Autumn 1. Silent.Killa78 >:) 07:15, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

A Reilly's Rangers shirt would be awesome-o-licious. Here are some other ideas, though:


 * A picture of a well-equipped Wastelander with the words "I eat Deathclaws for breakfast" written under it.


 * Two Chinese Assault Rifles crossed


 * A "Welcome to the Wasteland"-shirt with a fitting picture.


 * A Talon Company T-shirt (TALON COMPANY!!!)


 * A Nuka Quantum print (Twice the taste, twice the glow!)


 * The text: "Certified Deathclaw Hunter".

Are they any good? And by the way, you should really check out the copyright thing. You don't want to get sued by Bethesda... AngryNorwegianDude 09:07, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

I'd would definatly buy some of those dieas. Although I'd think a cihnese rifle shirt would jsut look like a normal shirt with 2 guns on it. -DragonJTSLeave me a message 13:02, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Word. How about a "Don't piss me off - I have a Fat Man"-shirt?

dude, i suggest u show bethesda your shirts, u never know they might buy them from u or make u make t-shirts for their game...Septic101 14:37, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Two Fatmen crossed over a mini nuke "Now you wanna make fun of Fat Men?"

__________________________________________________________________________________________

All right then. There are some great ideas here.

Kill the Overseer - I don't do costume fabrication(yet), but there are some guys on the Facebook Fallout 3 group(the largest one) that are doing some masks, jackets and such.

I think I'm going to take the advice and get ahold of Bethesda for permission/licensing.

They need an outlet for gear. We want gear, and not just in the game.

Ok, I'm going home to hook up with Charon and go clean out Fort Constantine.

Pieces out.NIX510 22:20, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Yeah....I smell a lawsuit coming. Hopefully they are really cool about it, but there could be trouble. LVTDUDE 00:48, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

Ha!

I got an idea:

Liberty Prime Eye-Lasering the Statue of Libery, with the caption "There's a new girl in town"

-- Ohh, I want an Enclave design ! And an Outcast design would be chill too like for Enclave, 'We're watching you' or 'We are the threat' something catchy yet bad ass, And BoS, I'm not sure... haha but something relevant to their story of course.. And a Regulator shirt please (Wasteland Guardians) Or here's a chill idea.. design something with an American Flag accept with a two-head brahmin and under it 'The Republic of Dave' =D Xdarkdragonx 04:17, 2 May 2009 (UTC) Dragon --

a picture of a tree with text under it saying "I'm with Herbert Bob"

Raven Rock exploding with the text "this is your president, john henry eden, signing off."


 * A picture of a Ghoul over the text "I can rip off my arm and beat you to death with it."


 * A print of Sticky with the words "Are we there yet?" printed in capital letters.


 * A "Join the Enclave - We have cookies!" print. AngryNorwegianDude 21:00, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

I love all of this, if I were richer I'd buy everything :D Some ideas:


 * A pic of a Raider with the text "It's not a mohawk, it's a lifestyle!"


 * A pic of a Super Mutant with the text: "I think I knew a woman... Or maybe I WAS a woman..."

--KillerIsMe 19:21, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
 * A completely white shirt wit the text "Why isn't this shirt in Fallout 3?"

a fat person blowing up a weight loss centre with a fatman going: NOW YOU WANNNA MAKE FUN OF ME BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Werewolfhell 19:29, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

How about a NASCAR style jacket, but with sponsors like Abraxo, Nuka-Cola, Sugar Bombs, etc. And, without the dumb redneck wearing it, of course. LVTDUDE 19:32, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

I would like to see a "Sudden Death Overtime" hockey jersey. Maybe with sponsor logos, namely Nuka-Cola and Red Racer.Rules27 16:03, 4 May 2009 (UTC)



You should do a shirt similar to the one in this picture, only instead of an AK-47, have an AER9 Laser Rifle going across the chest. I would definitely buy that. And yeah, you probably are already on this, but do make sure to try and contact Bethesda about this. I've had a problem before with a different game company, for a different situation (running a private server), and they got on my ass about it, forcing me to shut down and cease and desist, and if not I would have been taken to court...They were bastards, and I won't be playing any games of theirs again, but my point is, if Bethesda is anything like this company was, you'll hate it. --Esscex 05:31, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Well, I got a response from Bethesda. Here it is in it's entirety:

"Beaux

We are not looking to license any part(s) of our products for use by other companies or in the development of other games.

Thanks for your interest."

So I guess that's that. You'd think they'd want to please the people who have made their game such a success, but I guess not.

Anyway, the Cafepress shop is still there, and will remain until they tell me to stop.

This is a cool idea but won't you get completely bummed by lawyers and stuff?

Something tells me that when you contacted them you didn't tell them you were already selling merchandise with their property on it. Their response looks like you might have asked them if it would be okay if you did this, but not that you already did it. Be prepared to be sued. LVTDUDE 05:50, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Umm, I just looked at the webstore. Then I read cafepress.com's Terms of Service. You should read the following:

 * make a shirt featuring jericho's face and all of his soundbytes printed in plain white text around him. I wouldn't buy that but it'd make me laugh --96.243.180.70 06:36, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

absolutley awsome!! i love the one that you posted the pic of. think i'd like it in white though. even shirts with a favorite unique weapon would be great too. just think of some funky slogan for each one that fits. like the experimental mirv, think of some little quote about overkill as an example. i'd def be buyin them. i liked the ideas above too about Reilly's Rangers and Talon Company. The Nuke Quantum was a great idea. Try to get their permission. I think you might be surprised though, sometimes companies can be pretty kewl about stuff like that. Especially when you consider it's all done out of love for their game and it only promotes future Fallout fans. Great idea. Keep workin on it and make me first in line to buy, hehe. --Oblivion13 00:55, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

It would suck for you to get sued.. But you would have half the planet on your side... I'm certainly up for some shirts (the fallout face with the good or bad karma would be one I want). I mean, check ebay or any other online store which sells clothing merch. There are hundreds of not thousands of fan boys creating really good apparel based on movies, tv shows, bands, games, random quotes from the media. Obviously this gets into a hole heap of issues (a la PirateBay, Napster etc) where there are shady areas and like I said.. search for your favorite band on ebay and I bet you my left nut you will find bootleg merch on there. Does James Cameron get pissed when someone wheres a shirt showing the Wayland Yutani logo? No. I plead to Bethesda (who must look on here) that you let this go.. We would only do you a service in spreading the good word of Fallout. If this guys cant do it YOU SHOULD (for a reasonable price to us, your fan base). Sulfate 11:32, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Assuming you don't get sued, how about this one. A baseball jersey that has "Lamplighters" in typical baseball script across the front, and on the back, a jersey number and the name "Mungo", on top. LVTDUDE 14:17, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

make one of those propaganda posters of the enclave, or those pre-war 62.163.88.139 14:46, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
