Argh. This is a really confusing forum for me so I hope I've posted in the proper place:

I am looking to buy a retro Duke Nukem tee shirt to replace the gazillion-year-old worn out one my fiance has. Basically it's just a greenish crumbly silhouette of what was once Duke showing off his bicep or something on a black shirt.

I would prefer it newish (although just a little worn is okay too), I don't really care what size seeing how he will probably just frame it and put it in his office because it's so hard to find.

I've spent night after night searching for one and I even emailed Atari (? hopefully that's the right company?) but all that is around is crappy 3D stuff and I know that he doesn't like that version.

You know, I would even settle for a picture of what was on the shirt so I could have it screened onto another shirt. If no one is willing to part with their original shirt then perhaps you could take a really good photo/scan of it and send it to me?

Any help is very appreciated.

3d Realms made Duke3d and it was published by Apogee Software, though I highly doubt either had anything to do with the merchandise.

No idea where to look though!

I have two Duke3D shirts in my closet that I haven't worn in years. Neither one fits the description, though.

Hmm kinda sounds like that T-shirt that came with Duke Nukem: The Apocalypse.

Well there ya go.

Do an ebay search for that game new and sealed which includes the shirt and you are set.

rofl. i think that is the one he was kicking himself for forgetting to raise his bid on. he doesn't know i'm looking for one but the idea came from the fact that he couldn't find one himself.

i'll keep looking. thanks so far for all the help.

I have a Duke shirt that has him and "Damn I'm looking good" on the front of the shirt. I think I wore it like twice.
