Ok, everyone should know by now that Cafepress makes cheap shirts that fade quickly. There are many web comic artists who started making T-shirts and gear for their fans on Cafepress, then quickly bailed on the site after the t-shirts fade after one wash. I did the same and had the exact same results.
Do yourself a favor and do not order these products. Cafepress is a terrible vendor.

ive never bought anything from cafepress and never plan to, but a year or 2 ago i was trying to make tshirts, and went there to chack prices. now i havent checked prices on these products, but knowing that you have to have a minimum price of 15.99 per tshirt (without making a profit), i wonder what markup wizkids decided on. someone was talking a while ago on one of the set retirement threads about how once wizkids was bought by topps, they may have decided to make as much quick cash as they could, figuring its not their problem anymore and theyd be going out of business eventually anyway. its really starting to look like that now. on the other hand, if im wrong (which i sorely hope i am), i really hope we get more than just a carppy looking tote bag. o, wait, we do, and it just looks like low quality versions of (at least my) judges' shirts. and hey, not too bad on the prices, either. for cafepress and wizkids. but come on, at least something more than the generic 'heroclix' logo! id even buy super power shirts! how cool would that be to have a red shirt that has blades/claws/fangs and the description of the power? not very? ok, maybe its just me then...

No, considering this is being done entirely through a third party source, and these items are made on demand. The only thing WizKids provided was the logos and HTML, and Cafe Press took care of the rest.

Shin-goji is incorrect.
While working on this store I purchased several of their products and tested them quite vigorously. I washed shirts for 20 or so cycles. I tried out the coffee cups and the hats. I did not have a fade problem. They may have had this problem in the past, but that is not the case now.
You also have a 30 day satisfaction guarantee. Also, I wouldn't do this if I wouldn't purchase the product myself, which I have, as have other WK staffers.
I hope I can eventually do more with HeroClix, though obviously there is very little we can do with other companies properties. There are, however, always possibilities of other interesting things .
