Katamari Coincidence!

Before I begin this post, I should preface it by saying that if you don’t know what Katamari Damacy is, you need to procure a copy of the game from your nearest electronics boutique immediately after finishing this sentence. That is to say, anyone who is not in possession of the game Katamari Damacy shouldn’t be reading this sentence, this sentence right here, the one that you are reading right now. And if you’ve come back from the electronics boutique and don’t know what to do with the game, I suggest you go back to the store and get yourself a PS2. You should be able to figure it out from there.

So, yesterday I was at Panic.com engaging in a long-overdue purchase of their beautiful little Mac FTP application, Transmit. Unbeknownst to me, I was mere clicks away from a handful of dee-lightful Katamari Damacy tees I hadn’t seen before. In an odd bit of coincidence, the very next day Joe’s sixth sense (the one that senses awesome new t-shirts through the internet) alerted him to those selfsame tees. Well, being the kind gent that he is, he directed my attention towards them, and now I am directing their attention towards you.

Or… wait—that’s not quite right.

Never mind. You get the point.

I’m not sure exactly how new the shirts are, but none of us Bonanziers had seen them before (much less blogged about them), so that was enough to get me a-typin’ at this here blog. In particular, there are four designs that were news to us: Castle, Monogram, Rolling, and Stamps. (I can’t link to them individually, but you can just check them all out at Panic’s storefront.) My favorite of the group is probably Castle, with it’s shiny gold foil print:

If you’ve never checked out Panic before, I suggest you take a look, even if you’re not particularly interested in the shirts: they have lots of cool Mac apps available for trial download, and their site is extremely well-designed. Even their shopping cart system is incredibly cool. Seriously, it’s the only site I’ve ever been to that’s made me want to buy something because the shopping system is so damn slick.

Of course, having a nice selection of pretty t-shirts doesn’t hurt, either. :-)

    Thank you Greg, I am totally checking out these tee shirts right now and trying to decide which tee shirt’s a good investment right now; however, I think I see the prices of tee shirts falling in the near future as a result of the sub-prime mortgage meltdown and so I think I may wait to see how my prediction pans out before I invest.
