Meat Bun's smartly arty game shirts make Mario sexy and Dark Souls cute

I have a confession to make. I have an ulterior motive for my choice of Cool Stuff article today. You see I crave several of Meat Bun’s excellent, artistic, and entirely wearable game t-shirts for mine very own, but despite my best and most charming pleading tweets, it seems that they still don't ship outside of the US. So I’m hoping that once you see the kind of wonders I’m talking about here, enough of you in the UK and Europe will spam them, en masse, to get that shit sorted out.

And then there’s Dash Princess, which I can’t rave over hard enough. A Peach-focused Mario Kart t-shirt, its immensely detailed, brilliantly observed schlock exploitation-movie artwork makes it utterly unrecognisable as such to anyone not in the know. And to anyone savvy enough to recognise the t-shirt’s inspiration, the sight of Peach, Daisy, Rosalina, Toad, Toadette and Bowser reimagined in ultra-authentic, ‘70s action-movie style is frankly an utter joy.

So get over to Meatbun.com, ogle their stuff, and then please, please harangue them to start shipping directly to Europe. That way I don’t have to order a bunch of Dark Souls and Mario t-shirts via the GR US office, while hoping that they don’t get ‘lost’ in the post when Ryan and Henry get hold of them.
