Been lookin' for an official shirt with "I aim to misbehave" for some time now. Glad to see it finally around.

Do you think these count into Serenity profit? Merchandising.
The Serenity logo L, XL, and 2XL are all sold out.

Woohoo! Got mine in the nick of time, then. My XL Serenity logo shirts shipped today!

Me is wondering, though -- are these officially licensed products, or did they just use the logo without permission? If the latter, they may not be available for long. I certainly hope it's licensed, though, as I'd like to think my purchase went toward the great cause.

I just spoke with my local hot topic store and the manager gave me the email to their regional buyer. This is the email I sent to the buyer:
**

Good afternoon,
I was speaking with Joe at the Maplewood MN Hot Topic about Serenity T-shirts and how only California stores got them.

I’m a leader of the local Firefly fan group – you can find us at http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/MN-Firefly . If you have Serenity shirts in stock, our 132 members will buy them.

These t-shirts are offered on your web site. I found out because of a post tossed up on www.fireflyfans.net . The exact link is http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=15744 . Already, there have been over 200 hits on the post with its link and so hottopic.com is almost sold out.

Trust us Browncoats. We haven’t had enough merchandise offered up and so we’re desperate for it. Most of us are making our own t-shirts because we cannot find them in stores. If you can get 80 t-shirts into the Maplewood store, we will buy them and clamor for more.

Thank you,
Barbara Jungbauer

P.S., Be super smart and get those t-shirts into every store in the country. You’ll sell ‘em.

Don't worry-- They're licensed. Hot Topic is a major mall chain, and also one of their people was posting on the official message-board, saying that they had aquired the rights...

I knew Hot Topic would eventually get some shirts! I can't decide which of those 3 I like the best....

What I REALLY want are some good Jayne shirts, like the gray "troublemaker" from Jaynestown or the red "fighting elves".

Now if only those styles were available in women's tees...

I think they're able to get it to the store if you ask them to get it for you...I'll have to do that b/c I don't like shopping online like that.

Ohhh! I'm gonna get them all! And I can b/c there isn't too many shirts there to choose from!

Whoo-hoo! I have been walking into the Hot Topic stores and asking if they have any Serenity stuff. And they are like "Serenity?" I say its a movie...darn I had the DVD in a bag and I could have showed it to them. Not thinking. But I am always so disappointed when I ask. Now I can show them the DVD and say "Do you have the Serenity shirts that you have on your website?"

If they sell enough on-line...they will put them in the stores!!

OK folks, don't lose heart--make the person you ask look up the shirts in their computer, and if they don't have any, have them search the region. They may not appear publicly online, but the gal at HT in Fond du Lac located a bunch of the shirts at another regional store, Southridge in Milwaukee. Since I'm not due to go back to Milwaukee for about three weeks, they've ordered one of the River ones up for me, so I should have that in a week, but if you need to order one, now is the time to do it. The gal at my local said that because they're about to do inventory, now's the time--if you wait until later, it may take longer.

Woohoo! Go forth and order T-shirts!

I wonder if the 004 means XL and then maybe
001 means small
002 means medium
003 means large
004 XL
005 2XL

Perfect opportunity to plug the DVD or renting it at Blockbusters.

"Ever heard of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Firefly, Wonder Woman? The guy who wrote and directed Serenity wrote and directed Buffy, Angel and Firefly. He is working on Wonder Woman now!"

Get the person to look the shirts up in their computer...maybe that will ring some bells.

That's what I did.

"Serenity. It's a sci-fi movie that came out not too long ago. You know that other guy from Two Guys, A Girl, and a Pizza Place? He's in it."

I swear, every girl that I've gotten to see Serenity has eagerly agreed to do so based on that statement.

Still, though. This one looked at me like a cow looks at an oncoming train. If I'd kept it up, she'd probably have said "What the

is a Browncoat?"

She probably does not watch TV. I met a store clerk at Hot Topic who said he did not watch TV.

Did the store person you met know how to search their Region stores for stock?

Hello all.

Does anyone have a contact email for the people at bluesunshirts.com? I'd like to get in touch with them.

Similarly, anyone know who's manufacturing these official Serenity t-shirts (which, as the previous poster mentioned, are no longer on the website) - I'm presuming that Hot Topic are just a store and don't make em themselves?

Cheers!

Hot Topic stores are in malls in the United States. Lots of our malls have these stores. They sell cool stuff or maybe I should say they sell hot stuff.

I think the website is a testing ground for the mall stores. And Serenity passed.

Serenity My Turn 250169-004 XL
Serenity Logo 272754-004 XL
Serenity Browncoat 211458-004 XL

The tags on the shirts say

Serenity c Universal Studios. Licensed by Universal Studios

Under license to ripple junction
www.ripplejunction.com

ripple junction is producing the shirts that Hot Topic stores are selling

ripple junction's website says
11529 Goldcoast Drive
Cincinnati, Ohio 45249
Phone: 513-559-3900
Fax: 513-559-3903
Toll Free: 800-374-7753

DO NOT CALL TO BUY SHIRTS. They do not sell shirts to people...they sell shirts to stores...who sell shirts to people.

If you know a retailer who wants to sell Serenity shirts, have the retailer contact ripple junction.

They also have a Have an Idea button on their website...that I cannot seem to get to work right now. If you can get the button to work, you can submit an idea for a shirt.

Ripple junction website says these are the stores where you can buy shirts that ripple junction produces (does not actually mean Serenity shirts--I have only seen the Serenity shirts at Hot Topic stores in the United States)

Where to Buy! ripple junciton shirts
Hot Topic
80's Tees
