I had wanted these to go out two weeks ago but it turned out that after a washing, the lighter part of the star wore off. We shipped them back to Ken at [GiantRobotPrinting](http://giantrobotprinting.com/?ref=chrismessina.me) and he's got them all fixed up and good to go -- I just need to finalize the tremendous list of requests that I got and fire'em off to him for shipping. Admittedly I'm going to be pressed for time over the next two weeks -- I definitely want to get this done and have the shirts go out ASAP! So thanks for your patience all you who made a request -- I haven't forgotten the [original offer](http://factoryjoe.com/blog/2006/02/10/flockstar-shirts-have-arrived/?ref=chrismessina.me) \-- there's just been some curious complications along the way! technorati tags: [flock](http://technorati.com/tag/flock?ref=chrismessina.me), [flockstar](http://technorati.com/tag/flockstar?ref=chrismessina.me), [tshirts](http://technorati.com/tag/tshirts?ref=chrismessina.me), [flockswag](http://technorati.com/tag/flockswag?ref=chrismessina.me), [swag](http://technorati.com/tag/swag?ref=chrismessina.me) --- ### 馃挰 Comments from the original post **[topfunky](http://nubyonrails.com/?ref=chrismessina.me)** 路 2006-03-03 15:48:55 Those shirts are awesome! I think they are even better with the distressed look. If you send me one, I'll wear it at SXSW! **[Edd](http://www.blogfrog.co.uk/?ref=chrismessina.me)** 路 2006-03-03 17:36:40 Oooh hopefully one of these will grace my British door step haha. Thanks for the update! ;) **damianmann** 路 2006-03-05 13:15:30 Yes....i think the sitressed look is pretty cool. I'll take one no matter what they look like though. Nice. **[kosmar](http://theheadquarter.com/?ref=chrismessina.me)** 路 2006-03-08 16:04:34 yeah, my first thought was: cool he made a vintage variation. are there still some crunched ones left over? or couldnt mr. giant robot just do what he did and produce the same look for a special \*flockstar of the 70s\* edition? **tikal26** 路 2006-03-08 19:05:40 Hey any chance you still have some left. I am a xs or s it would compliment my songbird shirt really nice. Maybe you should sell them. **[Hodson Blog](http://www.davehodson.com/garage/archives/2006/03/flockstar.html?ref=chrismessina.me)** 路 2006-03-09 12:43:28 **Flockstar!...**I ran into Chris Messina at eTech yesterday and inquired about my Flockstar t-shirt He took down my info just in case he didn't have it and this morning I received an shipping notification email from Giant Robot Printing (the...... **[Design Tastes Good - user experience blog » Blog Archive » Long Live Flock!](http://www.designtastesgood.com/?p=98&ref=chrismessina.me)** 路 2006-03-15 19:30:08 \[...\] Chris Messina sent me an email and I have been waiting, and there were issues then today I鈥檓 a Flockstar. \[...\] **Chris S** 路 2008-06-12 08:13:24 I would love one if there's any left.
