Much like my last review, you can’t actually buy this one either (sorry, again), but this time it isn’t because the tee being limited edition, it’s because Go Ape Shirts got a friendly letter from CBS, who own the copyright to Star Trek, asking them to stop selling the tee. To me, this is quite clearly a parody, and there are lots of shirts out there for sale that are far more blatantly ripping the intellectual property of Star Trek, but Goliath tends to beat David in these situations, which is why I ended up receiving one of these tees. Even if you can’t buy this tee, it does serve as a good reminder that Go Ape consistently release some fantastic designs and have the print quality to do them justice.

The headline says it all really, Go Ape are being force to remove their latest design, Bar Trekkin’, which is obviously based upon a rather popular television series, and you have until Wednesday to buy it, after that, its gone.

I was going to go with a whole “he’s not worth it, he’s just not worth it, mate” joke to this post, which is a fairly familiar mantra to anyone else that has stumbled out of a club in England at 3am to be greeted by world-class a-holes trying to prove who is overcompensating the most (…aka, fighting), but then I realised that the phrase might not transfer very well to the majority of the audience since most of you are American. I wouldn’t want you think this tee wasn’t worth $18, because it quite blantantly is.

Other, ideas for this article were: suggesting it was illogical not to buy it, a Captain’s Log-style diary entry, shoehorning in a “we need more power” angle, writing the whole thing in Klingon, or pointing out that since it is a red shirt you’re the person most likely to die at the next Star Trek convention.

This is one of those designs where I really like the concept, style, and actual image, but I can’t see myself wearing it on a t-shirt. I guess its lucky for me then that this design is also available as a poster, huzzah. I’d be willing to guess that Star Trek fans would think it was pretty cool though. Oh, and since it seems like a Star Trek thing to mention, there was an episode (stardate:46424.1, seriously) of Star Trek: The Next Generation called ‘Ship in a Bottle’, I know that doesn’t mean anything to this discussion, but I thought it was funny that it shows up on the first page of google when you search for ship in a bottle.Costiness=$19.95 Link
