Converting popular pop stars and movie stars into miniature computerised icons (a bit like Wee Mees that you get on the Wii) have been popular online since the famous Abba to Zappa advertising campaign by The Observer in 2004. Now there are Weenicons which adopt a similar idea in that famous characters, like Ghostbusters, The A-Team and Del Boy are reduced in size and made graphically iconic.
Whilst looking at Play.com’s latest tshirt sale (they always have one and it’s a good place to find cheap good quality tshirts by the way) Tshirt Dude stumbled upon a whole collection of Weenicon Tshirts and they look pretty cool. As well as Only Fools & Horses, Mr T and Ghostbusters there’s also The Beatles, Austin Powers, Sylvester Stallone, Clockwork Orange and even Knightrider.
All cost £11.99 each (note that some are in a 2 for £18 offer) and are colourful looking tshirts with bright and large logos on the front. For the price and design they’re actually pretty good value. Will they catch on? And will they expand the range – let’s face the opportunities for Weenicons is endless provided they can relevant licenses.
Tshirt Dude will be keeping an eye on Weenicons to see what other cool tshirts they bring out for 2010!
