Why is there a lack of Robotech shirts in the Online Store?

Unread post by Jorel »

Has anyone ever noticed there are no Robotech shirts? I'm wondering if this is a license thing. Does anyone know why there are none? Has anyone ever requested them? I don't frequent this forum much so I figure those long timers here may have a better clue than I.


Also I started a thread here with a poll about it.

Most likely it is a licensing thing.

It is not one stop shopping I admit, but you can order such products via the RT.com Store.

I was thinking more like a Robotech RPG Tactics shirt to promote the new game, which I don't see on there. I do see the Palladium RPG books on there so that is a good sign.

It's probably a licensing thing... though Harmony Gold has, in recent years, seemed rather disinclined to produce apparel for their Robotech franchise.

Why make it easier for the flamethrower Macross zealots to identify you? :P

Still would have been cool to buy replica Flight suits, uniforms or even Life sized Minmei standee's...Wouldn't mind some Azonia standee's either.
