[Groop] Motor City shirts and cards

[Dougie McCoy]

I know this is a long shot... but what about " http://www.zazzle.com/" this is where I get lots of my shirts... the first being Scott Shaws! ODDBALL COMICS one they also have lots of WB and other.... So if we could make a Groo shirt made here for the GROOP even I got get one that would fit mybigass fanboy body... beside think of the fun of making Grary get one in every size and color :)

I noticed that the motor city bowl was only going to produce 144 shirts 
total.  I am guessing they bought some art work to make these and got 
approval to do the shirts.  This next idea would have to go through Mark.  
What about an official Group T-Shirt?  We could have Sergio/Mark make the 
design.  The group could pay for the design like the motor city comic con 
did.  I don't think we would need something fancy, a nice big groo face 
would stand out nicely.  Then we could produce something similar for the 
group, hence a run of 100-200 shirts.  We could get the orders ahead of 
time, then make an extra 25-50 for new members as they come in the next year 
or two.  The cost for the shirts would be cost plus shipping. 
Obviously this is Mark & Sergio's call, but before you get too excited, I should tell you that when the idea of a Groop Shirt with Groo art on it has come up in the past it just didn't work out.  I think it might have something to do with the business side of things and Sergio essentially giving up too much, which is certainly more than understandable.   I got permission from Sergio to use the art on the cards and the Did I Err? T-shirts had no art on them, so that was fine.  
I will do my best to get enough Motor City T-shirts for everyone and once we get the membership cards squared away I look into a redo of the Did I Err? T-shirts, which are essentially the Groop Shirt.  Sergio and Mark do more for their fans than any other folks I've ever heard of (who do you think clued me in on the Motor City T-shirts)  But I'm afraid a Groop shirt with Groo art is a non-starter.
