I admit, I'm not too enthused with this design as a shirt, but I thought the design itself was awesome enough that I had to show you guys. I just love the 3-D representation of the classic Space Invader ships. If you do want the shirt, it's over at Threadless for $18. (Via Geekologie)

i hate to be a nitpicker (i'm lying. i obviously enjoy it by posting this.) but the ship on the right is upside down.
it's really bugging me looking at it.

Isn't that an A-wing and a Y-wing.

That design is very cool. Honestly, though, my brain never interpreted those sprites as spacecraft. I always saw them as the aliens themselves. Illogical, I know -- but they have eyes!

Actually, The_Vig, the left one looks more like the Snow Speeder from The Empire Strikes Back. A-wings were more sleek.

I'll tell you something nerdy I did: At the playground I take my kid to, they have these little blocks you can spin to draw with. Being that it's all squares, I drew a space invader guy at the park, in pixilated glory!

I always knew they were meant to be ships, but my mind kind of saw them as aliens. The way they move, their look etc. I heard they were based on various sea creatures, too.

Pretty cool. No way my kids would get it.
