If you've been waiting for a Blooper hoodie, today's your lucky day

We've seen enough clothing branded with 1-up mushrooms to last us several lifetimes (which is sort of ironic), but other items in lastactioncowboy's new line-up of Nintendo clothing feature characters that haven't been so drastically overused. We've not seen too many Blooper hoodies, for example, while Bob-omb underwear is a new one to us.
Admittedly, probably none of this stuff is as effortlessly cool or obscure as those Sega-themed t-shirts from The King of Games, but then it's also not as horrendously pricey -- just $40 for a hoodie, or $18 per piece of underwear.

Hey, everyone needs undies! Well, unless you don't, I guess....

Maybe it's late, but that line is awesome. Made me laugh out loud. Mucho thanks!

You know what else I've seen enough of to last a lifetime? Prepubescent girls used in underwear ads. Maybe I'm strange, but if I'm going to look at a women in underwear, I like her to have curves.
I'm not even a 100% sure the model wearing the underwear IS a girl. Teenage boy?
Ahhhh....I love the smell of sexual ambiguity in the morning.

Target demographic of Ninty themed underoo is obviously not milfs, or gmilfs for that matter.

I think... I think your partner might just be fat. The only reason to say that is justification with some ideal of what a 'real woman' is.

You think 40$ for a hoody is pricy?

I'd never buy from lastactioncowboy. He came into multiple
Livejournal gaming communities, posting huge images of his 'wares'. When users of the communities politely
asked him to livejournal cut the images, he began verbally abusing and alienating his potential customers. All the original offending entries were deleted - either by him or a mod (most likely by moderators).
He's once again returned to the girl_gamer community and, despite insulting many customers earlier, is trying to sell again. His attitude is once again showing through, as a user who was simply asking for measurements for the sizes received attitude in return. When someone also commented that they wouldn't buy simply because of how he acted before, he quipped back with "no publicity is bad publicity".

dear JML,
I really hope you stick to your words, because I don't need anyone wearing my clothes who doesn't like the idea that the internet isn't about free speech.
with tv commercials, billboards, magazines, you somehow think it's completely different to have things shoved down your throat? livejournal was just purchased and, ahem, don't they use ad's now?
if you really want to win a battle, take it up against dominos for shaking up your 2-liter or not putting an even number of pepperoni on your pizza. i'm harmless and you really need to move on.

Ryan - I don't have a problem with advertising. I have a problem with your attitude and treatment of potential customers.

Never ever place an order on this website. He takes your money alright, and then that's it. I never ever got an answer. Nor the clothing. He even has the time to post on these comments, but not the time to answer a customer. I can only hope PayPal kicks him out. I wish I had never read this post at all. Bad medicine.

i also had the same experience as Fululian, except when i finally got a response on the 4th try it was immature defensiveness because i used the f word to describe my frustration at not getting a response to the three previous emails.
