A DULL REMINDER ABOUT THOSE UKR T-SHIRTS WE MADE
Now that it’s warm out, you might want to buy one. Even pale geeks need to stop wearing grey fleeces in the summertime. If you’re thinking of risking getting your arms out and letting people see the shape of your body, go here and buy one.
We’ve made them 15 quid including postage which is a bit cheaper than they were, as we’re bored of them now, need the cupboard space for putting women in, and want to get rid of them so we can make some new ones people like more or at least hate less.
This is the best one, really. It’s best because it’s in a normal colour (blue). It’s apparently a good conversation starter at parties and barbecues, and one man even said some girls started talking to him about it which lead to him losing his virginity.
This one is second best, out of two. So it’s sort of the worst. We have no idea why we made it on ‘teal’ or aquamarine. It must’ve looked better in the printers. Next time we’ll just do one in black for all the fat/shy people.
THINGS WE LEARNED DURING THE WHOLE T-SHIRT MAKING AND SELLING PROCESS:
Nobody likes teal/aquamarine Launch jumpers in January, not t-shirts Make them black for all the fat/shy people You can’t carry 200 home on your own We have three female readers we didn’t know about! People are scared about wearing gang-referencing t-shirts in South London, East London, West London and North London, plus the rest of the United Kingdom, Europe, America and Australasia.

American Apparel make the worst t-shirts in the entire world. I would rather some small child in a third world country labors for 12 hours a day making me shirts than wear one of these ill-fitting hole-ridden pieces of crap.
Also, make a black one, I am fat/shy.

Dear guy who came up to me at the Glade festival, pointed at my lovely teal shirt and went “UK RESISTANCE!”,
I’m really sorry I just responded with “alright” and a smile, I was on more drugs than NiGHTS and Space Harrier combined. We should talk!
Yours sincerely,
Wasted from the Overkill tent

make a “spiel macht frei” t-shirt already
July 20th, 2006 on 4:59 pm
I second the ‘spiel macht frei’ idea, it’d look well tasty in black-on-red, not to mention offering all kinds of “what do you mean, antisemitic overtones?” icebreaker opportunities at parties.
July 20th, 2006 on 6:15 pm
Would definitely give up hard earned paypals for a black-on-red spiel macht frei shirt complete with Sonic face!
July 20th, 2006 on 8:50 pm
Hey! I like the Sega vest t-shirt. I was going to get both, but didn’t really like the other one (at least comparison to the awesome aquamarine one)
I even got complimented in it by the fit girl at archery, so ner :P
July 20th, 2006 on 9:14 pm
Zorg, looks like you could be on to a winner with this one! I’m sure everyone that’s imagining owning one has a boner/moist at the moment!

Sorry for being an idiot, but what does “spiel macht frei” mean?
Actually screw that, Im not sorry, But what does it mean?
July 21st, 2006 on 2:21 am
“Arbeit macht frei” was on the gates of Auschwitz and means “work brings freedom”
“Speil macht frei” means “play brings freedom”
Isn’t it bloody clever?
I’d buy the t-shirt.
ps I wear my teal shirt with pride on the mean streets of W4 and someone has even complimented the colour.
pps I had to delete and rewrite because I spelt Auschwitz wrong.

“…and one man even said some girls started talking to him about it which lead to him losing his virginity.”
With one or all of them at once? How powerful is this t-shirt?
July 21st, 2006 on 2:44 am
Yeah. Spiel Macht Frei on a black shirt. Id buy one. I registered for a bloody account just so I could make this comment.
July 21st, 2006 on 11:55 am
What about a t-shirt featuring those recent pics with Cream the Rabbit..
I mean, how about a BLUE SKIES IN GAMES campaign t-shirt? :D :D :D The t-shirt itself could even be blue!!!
I’m sure if Sega are seemingly quite happy to allow all those knock-off/printer-transfer Sonic t-shirts on eBay they’ll be quite happy to see Sonic’s likeness in a ‘spiel macht frei’ design. To be honest THEY SHOULD PAY YOU TO DO IT just so we can help re-address the balance against all those fucks in the Mario t-shirts they sell at Gamestation…
July 21st, 2006 on 1:27 pm
mykel’s right
i would also buy a spiel macht frei t-shirt in a second
do they come in rodent sizes?
July 21st, 2006 on 3:02 pm
I’m with the other guys about a ‘spiel macht frei’ shirt …
July 21st, 2006 on 4:41 pm
the way things are going, i think ones with gary’s face on (the one from would sell enough to this crowd
it’d be like the end of v for vendetta
July 21st, 2006 on 5:12 pm
I want to buy a black sonic on red spiel macht frei shirt!
July 21st, 2006 on 6:16 pm
A shirt in the same red as the top logo with Spiel Macht Frei on it?
Fuck yes.
July 22nd, 2006 on 10:24 am
i don’t want a spiel macht frei tshirt…
July 23rd, 2006 on 1:26 pm
I like the spiel macht frei idea but does the whole t-shirt have to be red as well? Someone from behind might mistake me for supporting comic relief or donating blood.
I think it’d work also as a banner across a black t-shirt.
Lets have a vote on designs before you print them.
July 23rd, 2006 on 4:03 pm
Something like
this?
Here it is in blue
July 23rd, 2006 on 4:12 pm
Damn image host, here they are again.
Red and Blue
July 23rd, 2006 on 5:37 pm
I would go for the black one with the red banner for sure,
Although I would quite like an Arbeit macht frei shirt too, is that not politically correct?
July 23rd, 2006 on 6:11 pm
The banner’s good, but a full red shirt would be even better! I can be shy at times, but am nowhere near fat enough for black shirts.
July 23rd, 2006 on 11:22 pm
Yeah, I think full red will work better.
July 24th, 2006 on 1:31 am
C&W PLEASE!

1. I literally CAN’T use the Sonic art as loads of Sega people read UKR and some humourless cock would almost certainly go mental, because that’s what humourless cocks do. Then I won’t get sent stickers and badges that say “SEGA” on to put in my drawer and feel superior about having any more. That simply won’t do.
2. What’s wrong with American Apparel? They’re my favourite t-shirts, nicely cut and slightly fitted so they don’t make you look like a fat fuck who can only wear XXXXL Umbro tracksuit tops. I can only assume people who don’t like them are fat fucks, in which case get your fucking stomachs stapled then come back and buy one in 18 months when you’ve lost 260lbs each and have had all the spare skin removed.
3. I still can’t believe people would REALLY buy and wear a t-shirt with a Nazi-esque slogan on it. I wouldn’t, for fear of getting kicked in. But then I’m the sort of person people like to kick in, so perhaps I’m unnaturally sensitive to worrying about getting kicked in when “going outside”.
4. The existing ones are not meant to be funny. Just nice.
5. This isn’t a democracy. Imagine it’s the 1950s and you’re a woman, this is our office, you work for us and we’re the boss of you. You’ll have what you’re given and LIKE IT OR ELSE.
6. But I’ll make one anyway. If I’ve still got the font. So you can all start dieting and sign up to a gym but only go the once.

Oh Zorg I love it when you go all alpha male. Good weekend I take it? Still, I can’t blame you based on the level of cunt that comments here.
And yes I signed up just to write this. Which makes me a cunt too. Cunt it.
July 26th, 2006 on 8:44 pm
Spud I worry about you, first you want to shave your pits now this ;)
July 29th, 2006 on 4:32 am
I like the teal/aquamarine one that I bought from you. It’s very easy for people to pick me out in a crowd!
August 4th, 2006 on 5:08 pm
what about something crying & wanking related? It’s a phrase that’s spreading like wildfire amongst my friends.
AT LEAST do “blue skies in games”. The reason I didn’t buy one this time is because they weren’t.. UK:R-y enough. I bet even a simple UK:R logo shirt in the red and black style of the site wouldn’t sell too badly either.
