Special boxsets with t-shirts.

Postby ~IYQ » Wed May 23, 2007 10:34 pm

I had a question. Now, I'm no n00b to the anime world, but I keep seeing boxsets that come with t-shirts...but don't say what size they are anywhere on the package. And from my experience, it doesn't say the size anywhere in the product description if you're looking it up on the intercool, either.

So, someone clarify for me...are a) these sizes completely random, are b) they all generally one size --i.e., they all decide most fans are a Large (they so WOULD, lolol) so they stick a Large sized t-shirt in the box set, or are they c) made of super stretchy materials allowing one-size fits all?
It's pretty obvious to me-- live action Yuki would be played by Michael Jackson.

Just about 95% of the time, the t-shirt that comes in boxset is a large size.

Ugh, I hate those boxes... Don't ask me to buy a disk holding apparatus unless it's already filled with the disks.

That and the shirts always seem to be of cruddy quality.

This is the first time I have heard of something like this.I do know that on occasion they will add premiums like the special coin that they made for the 4th Inuyasha movie and the 3rd season boxset(the 4th movie has Inuyasha on the coin and the boxset for season 3 has Kagome and if you get either it comes with a special made
card to put the coins on),then they did have a special Scrapped Princess boxset that came with an action figure of the main character.But this is the first I think I ever heard of them doing t'shirts.
One would have to think that the quality wouldn't be too high if they were crammed into boxsets like that.

Amen to that, brother.

The t shirt in a boxset idea is nothing new.

Yeah. The Haruhi box doesn't just have a t-shirt so the quality wouldn't be that good.

Large... always large... what's up with that? What about us smaller people? I'm STICK chocked that when I sent away for a Di Gi Charat tshirt and circled SMALL that they sent me XL >_<!!! Do they really seem to think that the general anime population is huge or something?
