Even though our (pretend) DJ days were over back in college, we still have a fond spot in our hearts for Technics and their beautiful equipment. The Technics 1200s are legendary DJ gadgets after all, so when we saw that the company actually issued a series of shirts featuring Marvel characters behind the decks, our various body parts exploded. It's hard to tell which one is the best, but we're going to go with either Iron Man or Captain America, though the Captain Britain vs. Captain America one has its charms as well. If they weren't $50 each, we'd stock up on one apiece. [DMCWorld via Audio Junkies]

Iron Man and Ice Man. Beautiful.
The shirts, not the dudes.
Iron Man and Black Panther. Must have both.
Not surprisingly, there is still no way to make Peter Parker cool.
No Aquaman?! :[
Hulk hate house music. Hulk SMASH!!!
@zenpoet: Ice man? Dude, I think you'll find thats the silver surfer.
I think I like the Silver Surfer one and Captain America ones the most.... but $50 is absurd, screw that.
If the Marvel characters were custom-drawn, I'd sling $50 for one. But since they're cheap-o-get-it-out-the-door specials with some quick photoshop work put into them, I'll pass.
@zenpoet: Big faux pas in my book to confuse the Silver Surfer with Iceman...
Pure Hotness.
@Moordryd: Have to agree with you there, Ecko had some awesome marvel shirts a while back w/ custom imagery (i had a punisher one)
Wow, incredible. my favorites are Iron man and black panther, although if is that windy the needle would be jumping like crazy, no? Fantastic graphics.
Thanks for the link. These will become my iPhone wallpapers for the time being...
@=opportunityfanboy: I'd cut him some slack for the mistaken identity -- where's Silver Surfer's surf-board?
Ever see Rabbit in the Moon live? Their show is just as crazy as these shirts come to life.
Where is Joe Satriani when we need him? =D
Iron Man FTW!
$50 for some stick on thing that will wear off after a few washes?
That's fantastic, I just can't for the life of me think of a less likely pairing.
It works though, damn well.
Damnit they had to be 50 a pop, that sucks I don't got that kind of cash. They are awesome though makes good free wallpapers.
Just had to get the Iron Man ^^
Does nobody find it odd that with 12 Marvel superheroes on 11 different shirts, not a single character is a female, they are all exclusively male? C'mon, the Marvel universe is fully populated with women superheroes. The raw statistical odds of 12 characters being all male (or, for that matter, all female) are 2,048:1. So this would seem to have been a purposeful marketing decision. What's the message here?
Wow, these look like crap, just a copy/paste job and a sweet lens flare on the Silver Surfer one. Get better Technics ... seriously ...
@bosskev:
The message is that women belong in the kitchen, barefoot and pregnant.
the silver surfer one is amazing, as is the iron man version.
$50? a true 'Giz reader would print a color copy and tape/glue it to [his] shirt, and proceed to put the remaining $49.80 towards something electronic
@Sockpuppet: You are in fact correct sir. I guess the absence of a surf board threw me off.
@=opportunityfanboy: I guess after the Fantastic Four movie, I have tried to block out memories of the Surfer.
I wouldn't pay $50 for some iron on transfers that some kid photoshoped together in like 10 minutes
@liveinvt: How about Marine Boy? That might be showing my age a little!
WEAK. These are incredibly weak, sorry. This comment sums it all up perfectly:
"Wow, these look like crap, just a copy/paste job and a sweet lens flare on the Silver Surfer one. Get better Technics ... seriously ..."
I'm all about the Iron Man one, I'd get Silver Surfer if he was sold out though. Too bad at $50 a shirt I won't pay for either. Maybe half that.
@bosskev: Yeah, it's sexist. I'm sure all the audiophile comic book loving women out there feel disenfranchised right now for not being represented on a t-shirt. STFU.
Tho I wouldn't mind one with Storm or Black Cat on it myself. Rowr.
I actually liked the black panther one.
I think it would've been better if it would've been spawn instead of black panther that way it would have some kind of skulls and chains on it.
Idk if spawn is from marvel tho =/
@Absent Blue: I only asked the question. Thanks for providing a response. (I love it when people voluntarily present themselves as examples of the problem.)
