Would anybody be interested in a line of Custom T-Shirts for their Dummy/Puppets?
I'm doing some for my own figure to wear. If interested, let me know. Size 4T (or Kids Small if you have a larger figure). Funny sayings...Signature lines from the Act for walk around...custom Toon Art...your phone number! etc. Just gaging interest here. They would be $8.99 ea if I do them. Do you think there would be any interest in the vent community? Thanks Doug

Doug,
I currently don't use a puupet that could wear a shirt (I have Vern the Bird), but this seems like a great idea to me. If I had a 'human' puppet I would certainly want one. Even if I had another outfit for the stage, I would let him/her wear the tee shirt underneath, and let the puppet insist on unbuttoning the outershirt to show off his/her tee shirt. Some funny bits could be done with this and it would be a "classy" way to get some advertising in. Since I don't have a puppet that can wear one right now, I think you should just start making 'em for grown-ups too! I believe this would be something folks would want, especially at the price you stated. Not bad! Then again, don't take my word for it. I have been wrong once or twice in my life. :) Regan

Customizing ones act is a great idea.
Lately my mother in law has been creating some great vest for Nigel.(The Puppet that Rocks and Talks) I have also gone the route of embroidered hats. Nigel is smaller than most. He is about a size 2, which fits me as at a whopping 5'5" tall. Be safe, well and creatively you. Harris

Actually just go to Cafépress.com where you can create all sorts of goodies.
I don't know what I was thinking when I started this thread but it'll be a whole lot of Sundays before I had time to do the custom designs I want to do... Regan...yep...that's what the T-shirts are for , under the outer shirt with the outer shirt OPEN...unless I can find a white long sleeve one that can be printed on. But having a message on the shirt for walk-around seems like good use of space. The first one I did for 'Stanley' was "I'm Not The Dummy"...putting the text in a center column so they would be visible with the shirt just opened (not pulled open to reveal) I have a bunch of ideas for T-shirts for Vents & Dummies...just looks like it will be awhile before I can devote the time to it....durnit.

Oh, come on Doug. Why don't you make a few clones of yourself so you can keep up with all your wonderful products and services. We need ya' man!
I just can't let my wife hear about this latest project of yours. (Custom shirts for the Dummy in your life) She'll be your first customer! :) Sometimes I feel like I need at least 4 or 5 more clones of myself. Regan

I have been thinking about coming up with a Golden Ticket (like Wonka) where one lucky soul gets to learn the inside out of making these props...sort of an apprentice...would have to charge though as having a competitor that actually knows what they are doing and is not an eBay wannabee would delete from the living I struggle to make...oh well...lousy idea...
I'll just have work harder. ![]()

One of my 2 do list is create some products on Cafépress.com
Currently I use a local place for Nearly Normal Hats. My step son who designed my website, also created some Nearly Normal Sweatshirts for my wife and I. Can you say branding, I knew you could Regan...(send in the clones....Old joke I know....groaners can come in handy.) . Harris & Nigel
