Retro Kuwaiti T-shirts
I think I want to make some retro Kuwaiti t-shirts and sell them as a side business. I could make like a Kids ‘R’ Us shirt or “I heart Sunkist” one.. the possibilities are really endless!

Here are some links related to this blog.
I think it is a great idea, you can have smurfs, jonger cartoon, zaina cartoons on the T-shirts.etc.
Or you can also put wimpy burgers or filfila Amreicana.

I love the Hungry Bunny one.
I think it is a great idea, I will recomend retro cartoon, such as Smurfs, snorklles, zaina, kalimero, jinger.etc.
Also you can print wimpy hamburgers, pizzza italia or filfela Americana.
TC
Oh dammit ! you thought of it too ?? there goes my side business :(
would that be legal?
am buying the complete collection.. can’t wait
I would totally buy the Hungry Bunny… I would also buy Al-Waleed Toy Store or even Saeed & Dawlat
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm – what about some quotes from WTF blog?
Soon we gonna see guys hangin out wearing shirts sayin ” Ana Agaz Beshare3 El-7ub ”
Lol .. Good Luck Mark .. it’s great idae especially for places like Kuwait.
i’m already in love with it :) ill buy for sure ……
wow !!!
nice idea !!!
Try to be profisional mark as much as you can ..
http://www.t-shirts.com
the a bove site would let me change shirt style or colour , edit image or upload your own and adding text to your shirt .
if you maniged to build a site with your own desings plus that feature that I have mention before you may become number 1 in kuwait .
good luck ..
Sounds like a great idea!
can you use logo’s like hungry bunny’s would it be legal ?
How about printing like “248am…therefore I am”?
I am smelling some copyright problems in the distance (comment for the post)
But i think a 248am t-shirt might sell like hot cakes for 2 reasons.
1. You have a huge fan base and most wouldn’t mind spending money on a shirt
2. there are a lot of people who will be jealous and will buy them without evening reading or knowing your blog or what 248am means.
i think you have problems with aging :D
yeah it would be illeagal to print these tshirts without permission from the brand owners but maybe with a brand like kids r us the trademark might have expired? not sure. Also with a tshirt like I heart Sunkist would I need permission from Sunkist even if i didnt use their logo? too many questions still need to be answered.
Now a 2:48AM line of tshirts? hmm they would have to be more than just a logo on a shirt but there might be something there…
gr8 idea
yeah i’d totally want to express my love for mark through a 248 shirt.. !
remember the movie turk 182.
mid 80s it became crazy and most people never even watched the movie or knew what turk 182 was but it was on shirts, walls, caps and all over the place.

its just alpha numeric and might make some cash
Hungry bunny shirt is WIN!
=D
tata botata is going to kill u!
Yeah, 248am shirts are gonna be pink….no way it’s getting on me.
Make them black white looks cheap like the one they give for free
for a 248 t-shirt make the customizable that some one can print his user name
or like 248 am .com
then user name : Mr.pedro
pass word : ***********
just my 2 cents
I think you should also make some Tshirts with catroon theme songs lyrics that we really cant forget:
- Al Tineen al 9a’3eer (( Aby aby matha toreedo ya walad … ))
- Masra7iyat Llaila we theeb (( oh oh oh chinna el tanoora mafroora ))
and (( yaditich wenha feeh .. sakna bay el droob ….. ))
Masra7iyat sinderra (( ni9 dinaaar .. ana 3indi ni9 deenaaaar ))
I garintee .. these will be a hit with girls :)
The 248am T-shirt already exists, check:

Also, few other ideas for retro T-shirts:
Bombo, Captain Majed, Voltron (cartoons)
Daina-Zaina, Safeway, Fashionway (stores)
lol
Free Kuwait T-Shirt
Salah, the “Free Kuwait” t-shirt is already being sold by U5F.
Check out his Facebook group.
I wont recommend the Toys’r'us shirt since they will be opening at Mall 360 soon. Im sure they are have there trademark for there logo.
I’d Buy One Esp if there was one that said Nice Kitco
looks like you are a bit late !
http://www.n-collection.tk/

they can do what ever you want on a T-shirt !
I don’t think I am late. Did you actually see their collection?

if you Grow up in Kuwait in 80s:

yeah the n-collection one is managed by my cousin and her friend. but with these ideas, it’s never too late..
it’s a t-shirt selling business, not exactly an original concept..it depends on you go about it..if you market it well, you’d make a fortune : )
oh and there’s also Y-not group, i made a t-shirt and they don’t print stuff, they actually paint it..really good stuff..
but it’s never too late : D
go for it
I will buy the “kids r us” if it is a polo shirt
Grendizer… or Grandizer.
That, I would buy :)
The t-shirts fabric should be good quality and the logos should be quality printed and smartly designed, i.e cool to wear, not making one look like a human ad sign. Otherwise, anyone could make their own t-shirts with t-shirt transfer paper.
I bought couple of t-shirts from the following websites and I’m very satisfied with what I bought, IMO you should aim for something at least this good.

I <3 Pufak
I <3 KDD
LOL mr pedro, great idea. Everyone will buy the t-shirt with my username, so Mark you will owe me extra royalties :D :D
I could make a ton of money selling Holla Sucks or Holla is gay tshirts
Mark Wrote: “I could make a ton of money selling Holla Sucks or Holla is gay tshirts”
I don’t think so. People usually buy t-shirts when the slogan is fiction; not fact.
lol ! BURN !
It’s ok Cajie I am Arab so when I hump one of your gay lil mates I am still considered a man.
ma7ad copycrap, print n sell. am ur 1st customer.
So mark have you started on the t-shirt venture?
Hungry bunny shirt is omg awesome – nice job. :)
hey am trying to make some shirts as well but i have no idea from where can i get clear shirts so i can but on my stuff
