I just wanted to let you all know that The Psycho (http://www.fright-rags.com/v2/item.php?product_id=61&category_id=26) is now available! I just put it up on the site and it's now available for pre-order until next Friday, February 18th.

In case you're wondering, yes, I am calling it The Psycho for obvious reasons...I wanted to do a new Myers shirt anyway, and why not base it on the best part 1 mask available? :D So, thanks to Justin at Nightowl Productions for letting me "team up" with the coolest Myers mask this side of Haddonfield :lol:

Anyway, like the other new designs, I'm offering them in hoodies and baby dolls during these next two weeks. Hoodies are $25 (sizes S-3XL), and baby dolls are $15 (sizes S-XL). Email me if you want any of those, or if you have any questions.

Let me know what you think!

Yeah a hoodie sounds awesome! Will they be available for a little while or are they really limited? I am kind of tight on $$ right now but that design in a hoodie would be sweet!

Well, the hoodies are only available until the 18th. That's when I'm doing my first big run of these. After that, the regular shirts will be available for awhile...when I start to get low, I'll do another printing at which time I can do more hoodies. But there's no telling how long it will be until I reprint, as that depends on how well they sell, plus I have other stuff coming out.

The reason I don't regularly stock hoodies is because they're so expensive to produce. It's just not practical (for me, anyway) to make up any extra unfortunately.

damn that is one cool shirt. It's got a great Dark feel to it that fits the picture. Nice job Ben.

I assume you mean you have the Trick or Treat design as I haven't even printed the Psycho yet :)

This is actually taking the place of that design as I'm retiring it after the last few sell.

Hmm...that doesn't sound like any of mine. Here's the Trick or Treat design:

If that's not it, then I'm not sure what shirt you have...that's the only other Myers one I've done. Got any pics?

So Ben, you made all of these shirts? Do you sell them to other stores to sell as well?

I'm just asking b/c I saw them in a store in Salem, Mass. and they were much more money than on your website.

That Michael one you just posted the image of, the WWJD, and I'm trying to remember what other ones...hmmmm....

Yup, I made all of them. That store in Salem bought some shirts wholesale awhile back, but you're right...he charges alot more for them. I'm not sure why...

Anyway, that's the only place I've done that with...I like taking care of orders right through the site. It allows me to connect with people more as well as keep control over how much product I'm putting out.

Talk about small Halloween/horror world, I went shopping in the only retail store that carries your shirts, LOL!

The images are great, I love them all! Good work :)

Ben, when you were putting together the idea for that shirt, did you try it out with any text on it? Something like the word "shape" underneath it?

I was just curious if you toyed with variations of the current look.

Actually, i did try out some text underneath. I tried out "Psycho" in verious sizes and typefaces, but couldn't get anything to look right. In order to make the text legible, it would have to be one of the lighter colors...and that took away from the collar, which I think completes the overall look. Besides, I kind of like the iconic image of the mask without words...though i may do another in the future (different image, but still Myers) with a word on it, or even a quote from the film.
