Looking for some Adult large\x-large wacky shirts. (Size depends on how much beer/wine/pizza I've had over the week-end)
I will be proudly wearing them, so NWT not necessary.
Prefer:
-10 Again = Neveready, Tied, Weakies, Hungry Jerk, Camals.
-Freeze = Any of them!!
-Top Heavy = Ajerx, Cram, Hawaiian Punks, Kook Aid, Tied, Weakies.

Have you tried making one? You can get iron-on's for your printer that are pretty sturdy. I made a "Ghoul Humor" shirt!

Hmmm.. I certainly did think of that (not sure how you did yours).
If I take a picture of the Ajerx that I own, can I use that picture to make one of these home made iron-on t shirts?
Is that ok as long as I don't sell it, or try to make a profit somehow?
I'm no attorney, but, I don't think legally you're allowed to do that. Not sure.

Honestly, I never gave a second thought about the legality of making something in my own home, for my own purpose.
I used scans found online as opposed to taking a picture.

Given the lack of moderation by Topps to control images actually created by their organization such as lost wacky's which were produced and distributed for profit I sure as hell wouldn't worry about making your own shirt.

Ah...good point. I think I'll give it a try. Thanks.

I made a Coca-Cobra tie using the iron-on process and have yet to be busted by the NYPD. Topps's Pinkerton-like agency headed by Bazooka Joe, however, is another matter entirely...

That....is awesome!! Great idea.
A 6 Up would fit perfectly too!

You're absolutely right! "6 Up" would fit perfectly. "Ajerx" would probably work, too.
I picked up the tie at a local Goodwill to experiment on. I wanted solid black, so the black title border would blend in. The tie is really slender, however, slenderer than the majority of my other ties. With a wider tie, I'd say that a lot of the vertical WP would probably fit.
I think the next one I'm going to try is "Yeti Wip." Or maybe "Rabid Shave." Haven't really made up my mind, yet. You got me thinking, though!
Grab a couple of ties from a thrift store and play around. They only cost about 50 cents apiece.
I'm thinking a cool idea might be to get a couple of candy bar parodies, and then run them diagonally up the tie. Might work. Have to give it a try.

Nice!

This title might go well on a tie. With a vintage Windsor knot.

Good one! Yes, it just might!

OK....I'm pumped to try this.
I've got some inkjet iron transfer paper on order!!
I'll be testing shortly.

Remember to reverse the image (flip horizontally) when printing.

OK...
So I took a picture of my Ajerx, altered it in Lightroom, and printed it on Jet-Pro SS brand transfer paper.
Ironed it on a plain white t-shirt.
The front is good, but I tried to iron a mirror image on the back of the t-shirt first. It didn't work so well.
(I'm learning. Will try again):

Wow, the front looks great. I should do this with the original art to Hurts to make super high quality Hurts shirts!

Thanks! Yep...it did come out nicer than I expected.
Pretty flexible and stretchy too. Let's see what it looks like after a washing or two.
I bet the detail in that Hurts original art would show up pretty well.
