Past drops

Isaac in Wonderland

Isaac in Wonderland

One pill makes you larger, one pill makes you small... and the ones that mother gives you don’t do anything at all. This psychedelic shirt by @carlesdalmauart will give you a contact high and make you dance like a dead head until your head is dead. This shirt is 100% legal and includes 3 Four Souls promo cards... Pills!, Pills!, and Pills! Don't take them all at once! Oh and it has a cool sticker sheet filled with mushrooms and pills! I hope you don't have a... bad trip! heh… It would be a shame if you started seeing unsettling things… I guess you’ll just have to pull yourself out of it by looking at this completely normal Duke of Flies April Fools promo card. Nothing untoward to see here…

T-shirt: Isaac in Wonderland

Four Souls cards: Pills!, Pills!, and Pills!

Art print: Featuring the T-shirt art by @carlesdalmauart

Sticker: Pills and Mushrooms sticker sheet

Surprise bonus item: April Fools promo card (Duke of Flies... but really it’s the Bloat)

Binding Pale Kid

Binding Pale Kid

You can be a Binding Pale kid! This month's t-shirt was done by the legendary Tom Bunk ( Garbage pail kids + Mad Magazine ) and features Evil Eve! (as well as a very drained Isaac). This retro 80’s t-shirt also comes with some potty humor themed four souls cards: Number one, Number 2 and The Butt Penny! We will also toss in a sticker version of the t-shirt image because it just felt appropriate. Oh November is also Black Friday so we will be packing in a Black Market promo in this box as well! 

T-shirt: Binding pale kid
Four souls cards: Number one, Number 2 and The Butt Penny

And of course a surprise bonus item!

Isaac is Doomed!

Isaac is Doomed!

Hurt me plenty with this ultra violent nightmare of a t-shirt by Shamfooo! Are you seeing this shirt?! When Shamfooo sent me the final image I nearly dropped my BFG (Big Fat GrilledCheeseSandwich)! The demons are coming for you in this box: the Four Souls cards included are Loki, The Adversary, and Big Horn! There is also a sticker version of the t-shirt image for you to stick on your shotgun! But the fun doesn't end there - the box finishes with a bang with the inclusion of the New Years promo card, Pyromaniac! 

T-shirt: Isaac is Doomed!
