I have a t-shirt collection that would make Sheldon Cooper proud. After all, who doesn't get cheered up by wearing a cartoon character on their chest?
Although the collection already play host to the textile versions of Pebbles Flintstone, Pop Eye with family, all the Care Bears, the geeky Barbapapa kid and a load more, some essential characters are however still missing.
I know I normally seem somewhat biased to My Little Pony as far as tacky 1980's cartoons go, but I'm much more versatile than that. I love the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles just as much!
When you think about it, it does make sense. They're all animals who talk, they hang out with human girls teaching them the harsh realities of the world, they're super colour coordinated and in their own ways, they all think that friendship is magic. What is not to love?
After browsing pretty much every single comic book store in the UK in an attempt to complete yet another cartoon related mission, I finally found them all - Leonardo, Michelango, Donatello and Raphael. They were hiding in Forever 21. In other words, I had risked being spotted at a Sci Fi convention for no good reason. The horror.
So technically it's a vest. Still counts. Still the epitome of cool.
Cowabunga godammit! |
