I wonder if anyone can help. I'd reality like to get one of the 'time for some thrilling heroics' t shirts. They have them on amazon com but they don't ship to the uk...

Would anyone in the USA be willing to recieve one for me (I'd order and pay for it) and then ship it on to me if I reimburse them for the postage ?

Thanks if anyone can help :)

If you sent the shirt to me, I'd be overcome with greed and keep it for myself. Fortunately you don't have to depend on me because you can get the shirt shipped directly:

Have you ever come across t-shirts designed around the girls? Most of the shirts I've seen are Jayne or Mal...Though I have seen a River silouette and a "Kaylee's wine" label one, followed by a dozen sayings...but nothing really designed much...

Wonder why you never see shirts that say "Registered Companion" hmmmm.

There is an imbalance. I only see three shirts with the women of the crew:

River T-Shirt http://teenormous.com/t-shirts/River-T-Shirt-by-Karen-Hallion-by-Redbu
bble-1070119

Disneyfied Firefly: Crew T-Shirt http://teenormous.com/t-shirts/Disneyfied-Firefly-Crew-T-Shirt-by-Nana
-Leonti-by-Redbubble-1061724

Cartoon Kaylee www.redbubble.com/products/configure/7201712-t-shirt

If you want the women as Muppets, there's two versions: http://teenormous.com/t-shirts/Firefrog-Firefly-The-Muppets-Group-Shot
-1-T-Shirt-by-James-Hance-by-Redbubble-1033503

Besides Mal & Serenity, there is another spaceship shipping company - Planet Express. Bender is to Futurama shirts as Jayne is to Firefly shirts. Proof that TV characters most likely to be on a tee shirt drink, swear and belch. http://teenormous.com/search/futurama_t-shirts Women are not crude enough to compete for tee shirt glorification with Jayne & Bender.

I like the Muppets one, but I think most people I know would thnk I'm promoting a movie...

I think that those old style posters of the girls someone had up recently would make great shirts, but that would imply me remembering to buy ink, iron on transfers, and THEN invert the image...somehow that last part always eludes me...But I would pony up the bucks for one ready-made......

Those QMX images of the ladies would make nice Ts you're right.

I think the lack of the girls on shirts is down to two factors a) far more males buy t shirts than females and they're more likely to associate with the male characters b) Jayne has most of the best one liners in the show - hence the fact that he appears on more Ts than anyone else including Mal.

I know what you mean. The Art Nouveau Firefly: Les Femmes Poster Set www.fireflyfans.net/mthread.asp?b=13&t=49063

That would make 5 nice shirts.

The cover image from Serenity Volume 2: Better Days and Other Stories could be a shirt.
