We are a little late in reporting that the Marathon's Story T-shirts are now NOT available for preorder. Hamish posted a FAQ to the Marathon's Story page:
Hey you said I could pre-order the t-shirt but now no pre-orders are being honored. What's up with that?
My fault. I thought it would be cool if people could pre-order their shirt and pick it up at the Bungie fanfest.But within 24 hours all the shirts were gone. So in the interests of fairness we've scraped the idea andgone back to a first come first served basis. Get to the fanfest early and watch for the guy being mobbed... Jon that's MY shirt Chang!Can't you print MORE shirts
Nope sorry. The original deal with Bungie (since they gave us permission to use the Marathon symbol)was to have a limited edition once only series to be sold at the Bungie fanfest at cost price (no profit).What sizes are there?
1 dozen XL and 3 dozen L (Matt Soell gets an XL).Hey you said there was NO pre-ordering!
If YOU want to stand in Matt's way when he comes running for a shirt... be my guest! ;-)I heard it took one month to decide where to locate the Marathon symbol on the t-shirt. Is this true?
That's correct. It's was a long drawn out battle between diehard stick-in-the-mud convention and ultra-modern Italian designer styling.Luckily the latter won out in the end.So where did you locate it?
That's a surprise.What's written on the back?
Secret stuff! During initial beta testing a former Lara Croft model was reported to have said Why do guys always stare at my back when I'm wearingthe Marathon's Story t-shirt?The limited edition Marathon's Story t-shirt only available at the NYC Bungie fanfest July 20th 4pm. Be there earlyand avoid the stampede.
Well that pretty much says it all. If I had a snowball's chance in Hell to get out there I'd be clambering over other attendants to have my chance. There are only 49 shirts to go around, so you'll want to be on your toes. Oh!... And you'll want to see the rigorous testing process used to ensure the shirts' quality will meet your satisfaction. =)
