When do we get to see what the 2010 shirts look like?  Do we get to vote on them like last year?

I really like the TRON 4 t-shirt design, but it has a misprint. July 19th is a Monday.

I like Tron 2, but with the solid white laters rather than the gradation.

Tron 1 with Tron 4 on the back?
I like the low key message of Tron 1. It could also work as a bigger centered image.

Some people last year had an Ataxx T-shirt with a list of games in attendance on the back like a concert world tour.
The list was framed by 2 ataxx computer players.
That was very cool. Wish I could have gotten a hold of one.

Rikitiki,
Your avatar would make a good t-shirt too. ;)

I acutally thought that would be a fun idea to do on the concert/jersey style T
so if Team Extreme go with it might be fun to do a limited run of those

First time on the forum, so probably a bit late to suggest designs, but what the heck ....

(quick mockup. Can be enhanced. Quality of image will get munged due to size limitations on the forum ...)

I'd like to see shirt one with the spinner control decal design on the pocket area on front voted in with Arch's emblem on back (the selection grid). I'd pay extra for the back silk screened. Wow! That would look cool..............

Oh man, all excellent designs again.  Has to be TRON though, after all it's the year of TRON.  My favorite is TRON 4, amazing idea - reminds me of the billboard atop Flynn's.  Aside from that TRON 1 on the front with either TRON 2 or TRON 3 on the back would be a good secondary shirt.

I know runs of each design were done last year (heck, I'm wearing the Death Race one right now) but it would be a travesty not to have the TRON 4 design printed.

Stickler to the fashion gods, I'd like a non-black t-shirt option since I got a black shirt last year. I love the Tron 4 Option (amazing!), Pinbot 3 (not black!), and the Retro 1 (anything but black).
With such great shirt options I might have to buy more then one shirt this year ^_^;;.

Though, if the Pinbot design will actually be done in silver metallic paint then the black shirt will probably look better..Too many choices!

Just to clalify a little more on the PINBOT design
if it goes to print it will most likley be printed ON ALL 3 SHIRT COLORS
like the Rudy shirt of last year I think it was Blk, maroon and grey.
its the graphic design that will be the same so I did variations of it
one with stars for example, another with a  back glow in purple (would probaly glow yellow on the purple T) and the 3 option is just the charector ontop the logo but again would most likey offer
all 3 shirt colors with just one of those design options.

Thanks TrevEB, I am the graphic designer who designed the Ataxx shirts last year. My friends and I have been attending CAX for the last 3 years now... and good times. I love seeing all these games each year and playing in an environment outside of sitting behind a home console in your living room! Can't wait for 14!  We pay respect with our shirts to the forgotten......First we did the Free MarbleMan CAX 2007, Exidy Crossbow CAX 2008, Attaxx CAX 2009....and for this year the mother of them all..........

My $.02 (keeping in mind that I didn't get around to buying a shirt last year) I like the Tron 4 and Retro 1 designs.
The other Tron designs are good but the font isn't clear enough to read the event details at a glance.
The Retro design reminds me of the artwork of Atari.
As for shirt colors, I'm not a huge fan of black either.  It's 105 degrees outside as I type this and a black shirt just isn't going to happen!

I agree with some other posts that the Tron 1 design ought to be on the front pocket of either a Tron 2 or Tron 3 back design.  I also love the Pinbot and Retro designs, too.

TOUGH call here!  All the designs are really strong this year!

Can't wait to go to the convention this year!

Wicked cools!

With the remake/new movie/next part of Tron to be released this year, awesome choices.

Tron 3 front, Tron 4 back...with the List from retro throw on top! sick...

My 2 cents -- Tron 1, large and centered on the front. Nothing on the back.

I voted for Tron 2 & Pinbot 1. 

However I think all of the shirts would benefit from a front/back design where the art and year is featured on the front and "14th Annual Classic Arcade & Pinball Expo" is on the back. 

Last years T-shirts featured this and they came out very nice (I purchased 2).  Otherwise the designs look too busy to me.
