These 25th Anniversary GIs are nearly identical to the Joes in your garage, down to the same retro packaging. Pick from heroes like Duke (and his assault rifle/jetpack) or space-piratish Major Bludd, or opt for Cobras like the beryllium steel-faced Destro, complete w/ a M.A.R.S. briefcase, and a tiny beryllium steel boner every time you mimic the voice of Baroness.

Reminisce here

Local graphic designer BG's new drop is a series of smoothly self-referential gear, including graffiti-meets-Old E fonted tees bearing slogans like "Golden State" and "Midas Touch", another with a glider marked "Stay Gold", as well as striped five-panel lids evocative of either Wrigley's gum, or the movie Candy Stripe Nurses, which you really need to return to the Betamax store.

Gama's holiday sale's your chance to gift yourself with polos sporting mini "deathbots", ltd edition embroidered hoodies, signature tooney tees, and vinyl billfolds embossed with stuff like a giant squid laying siege to the Brooklyn Bridge (it's pure calama-dness!).
