Triumvir x Capcom: Super Street Fighter PREORDER LIVE 4/28/10

Just ordered me a Black Ryu Shirt.

Keep up the awesome work!

that jacket is so expensive :frowning:

grabbed a dhalsim and shadaloo v2.

In other news, I’ve just won the triumvir x madworld contest… ordered the hoodie for 1 cent. That means I got the game, too or just the hoodie?

Fucking verification code made me lose…

It means you got both. Congrats.

Yeah, I knew the check out process might be an issue, so I logged into my triumvir account beforehand so it would be just a couple of clicks.

I actually thought I was still logged in from earlier, but apparently not.

There’s an issue with the shopping cart that gave me some trouble too.

If you just click “Buy” from the list of Limited Edition items without clicking the item picture first and picking a size (OR click “add to cart” without pulling down the menu to choose your size) it adds the item into your cart without a size specified.

I’d clicked “Buy” at first, realized I was doing it the incorrect way where a size wasn’t chosen, and tried to fix it all in time (which is when I ran into the verification part) but was too late… :frowning:

I’ve got the game already, just wanted the hoodie.

Oh well. I’m still happy with my White Lion Parka :smiley:

SERIOUSLY!!

I was trying to log in minutes BEFORE the hoody dropped but it wouldnt let me!!

I wasnt able to successfully log in until after the hoddie was in my cart, but then it was too late.

:sad:

o well… cant win them all

black dhalsim and white shadaloo v2.

How long is the pre-sale going to last? Does it end on a certain date or when you fill a certain quota?

@The Drunken Monkey - Never.

@pplcallmeGOD - Whichever comes first.

@sambao - Is that Box Cutters/cuttahs in your avy?

Congrats to everyone who won the Madworld Pack (Hoodie + Game). To everyone else - better luck next time. We try to do these giveaways at least once a year.

Once pre-orders are over I’ll be running a small contest here so stay tuned…

Survival of the Fittest looks so damn kickass. That alongside Furinkazan are my favorite SF collaboration pieces of far…if you’re not gonna produce them, it’ll be a sad, sad day. Mind printing another sample just for me, Brandon? :lovin:

But truthfully, I would drop some serious cash for this shirt. Wanna rock it when I’m at Xidan or Wangfujing, come summertime.

Sorry Drunken Monkey we don’t sell to Hot Topic, the Triumvir x Capcom collab is only available on our site. Drunken Monkey this is not geared towards you, I would just like to take this opp to explain more… just this one time…

A good reason why we don’t sell or care to sell to Hot Topic or any other big chain stores…

Hot Topic buys by the tens of thousands for all their stores nationwide. When they buy by the tens of thousands then they can retail a Street Fighter licensed shirt for $15.00 or $18.00 or whatever they calculate off the volume…i don’t know… i only like the album cover Gun N’ Roses shirts that they have there. These SF licensees that make the generic looking SF tees are very happy that Hot Topic will buy this much from them, why… because at the end of the day they have investors backing them up to produce tens & thousands of t-shirts so they can keep everyone happy by collecting profits from the tens of thousands of shirts that they sold… however it doesn’t keep a lot of other fans of SF like me happy because I don’t like owning a SF shirt with a generic graphic taken from a Genesis SF game cover from years ago and calling it Retro SF Classics only at Hot Topic or Walmart…

VS.

Triumvir… we have six employees & seven interns. We are a privately owned small clothing design house located in Santa Ana, CA… in the heart of Orange County. We make our own decisions without investors hassling us about meeting a certain quota at the end of the year. This is why only 150 pcs of the denim and jackets were made and why we produced no more than 100 to 150 pcs of the Shadaloo tees… because this is what we have set aside for our budget to produce the goods (yes in reality we’re not that rich). We are all in our early 20’s to early 30’s trying to pursue a dream. We grew up with SF and are all diehard fans of it. We are in the fashion business. We wear black and wear black chucks all day, we have tattoos and we don’t have casual fridays. Our casual fridays consists of beer and “…” and playing video games in the warehouse and talking shit to each other about it.

At the end of the day it’s not about making money here with SF for us (we make money elsewhere with our clothing line), its about making something that I always wanted and cannot find anywhere else (maybe in Japan). It’s about not being passive with what some corporation slaps on a blank t-shirt and tells me that it’s a SF shirt and telling kids that it’s cool because it’s at a generic looking shop called Hot Topic located in a mall near any American suburbia and the store clerk is edgy because she has pink hair with a lip piercing (and she really knows SF too).

… and this is exactly why Capcom approached us to do this collaboration… they felt a lot of the merchandise were beginning to loose touch with its clientele.

Hope this answers a lot of the questions pertaining to why our clothing is so expensive and not sold at Hot Topic. If people think it’s too expensive and don’t want to buy it… then don’t buy it… as long as I can hit the production minimums and share it with my friends and you guys, I’m all good for it…

thanks, B

is there any way to order this over the phone ??? im on my g1 now and i wouldnt be next to a computer till tuesday all i want is a black ryu tee and a white ken tee both large

It’s pricy but once I get a bit of spare cash I’m planning to grab a couple shirts.

Keep up the good work!

Hahhaha I knew the conspiracy ran deep :rofl:, no worries I won’t be broke next time!

Was this a limited run, or will the Claw t-shirts go back into stock at some time in the future?

Just pre-ordered a white shadaloo tee and black Furinkazan. Really hope you guys can get Survival of the fittest approved, I would cop that too. :lovin:

your boy, TornadoFlame hit me up as a referral for a possible collaboration with you guys. It’s for my “NI’s” but that’s an exclusive that I just can’t let anyone just collaborate for. I am interested and doing the same as you, regarding your line of business, but I have other ideas in mind along with that. Also, I have a different shirt idea I would like to bring to your attention. Possibly you could be interested in it.

if you’re interested, or have the time, please leave me a private message so we can talk.

@xxSupreme - We don’t work weekends, you’ll have to ask somebody else to do it for you by proxy or just wait for the official drop in May.

@Worm - The Claw shirts most likely won’t get reprinted. Our licensing with Capcom ends soon. The World Warrior collection is a limited run of 100 pieces per shirt and will probably be the final apparel collaboration with Capcom for now…

@Dr.Chaos - The best shirts from this collection imo.

@shatterstar - All inquiries should be done via e-mail. Hit me up at josh@triumvir.com. I don’t know what you’re referring to in your post but just let me know the details and I’ll look over it.
