Hi Folks, found these at my local supermarket. My eyes jumped out of my head when I saw them. They rang up as mens shirts but they're really small to my eye, maybe they are ladies sizes?

They're made by the casual threads clothing company. Pretty close match for off the rack. They also had them in black. They were hanging there for months. I bought the five khaki they had before Halloween, figured they might get bought.

_ gets to meet Harrison Ford, and I get to find these shirts :-({|=

Well folks, I've met _, and can say that these won't fit him! So there!! :)

Thanks,

John D

I think the influence in the design here cannot be denied. Good catch!

(Btw, Red, where have you been all these years?! :shock: )

Yeah, the shirt won't fit me, I'm into like a 3xl tall. From what I've read the WPG shirt is for me (and my gut!)

Hey Ape, I've been around, just lurking really. Never have time to post. I've been meaning to post this for a few MONTHS now. Working ***** :)

If anyone wants one of these let me know.

Thanks! John D

John, it's great to see you around. I don't want to hijack the thread, but do you have any new props to show us? I can't say enough good things about the headpieces and grail tablet I got from you. Still hoping that your idol had come through.

careful, i thought the same thing. if you dont wear your pants at your natural waist (at your navel) they might be too short, i know they were for me...

I can't find that style on their site. Maybe it's been discontinued? Or I could be just blind.

Sent you a PM John. ;-)

Captains log supplimental.. haha I couldn't resist when I saw the supplimental.

Not a bad shirt at all, great find. Would work REALLY good as a close enough beneath a jacket.

Bummer how the drawing shows the stitching across the pockets, but it's not on the shirts. I wonder if the would make them with pocket stitching and epaulets. They were cheap, 9.99 each where I got them (Albertsons, now bought out by Sav-Mart). Maybe it could be a 15 or 20 dollar replica.

Thanks,

John D

Oops and Joe, sorry, nothing new on the prop front. I do have an idol that is one generation off of the archives idol, but its the archive book version, which is wayyyy less desireable I think. Especially after Goblers sculpt, that girl is gorgeous. :)

Almost forgot, Thanks for the advice Bruce. I live about 30 minutes away from Jerry at WPG. I keep meaning to meet up with him and try one on.

Thanks again!
