I am now accepting pre-orders for the officially-licensed Fu Manchu tank tops!

They should hopefully be ready to ship out in the next 2 weeks!

Happy 2010!

I've just received word that the officially-licensed Fu Manchu tank tops are being printed and should hopefully be available in February. Once I get confirmation of this, I will begin accepting pre-orders.

Still waiting on the Dragon of the Black Pool shirts. I hope to get more news on this next month.

The officially-licensed Pork Chop Express tee shirts are now in stock and ready to ship in time for Xmas!

Unfortunately, I just got word that the licensed Fu Manchu tank is still going through approval issues with 20th Century Fox and will not be available until early next year. If you are still looking for a "Jack Burton Tank" for Xmas, I suggest trying Ebay...

Note that the last day I will accept orders for Xmas is December 21. Any orders received after that will not be shipped until the 26th.

December 8, 2009:

I am now taking pre-orders for the officially-licensed Pork Chop Express tee shirts. I expect to receive them next week for shipping in time for Xmas.

The licensed Fu Manchu tank that everyone's waiting for is still on backorder, but I'm hoping to get them in the next two weeks. Once I know they're on their way, I will take pre-orders for them, and hopefully they can be a last-minute Xmas gift for BTLC fans.

I am pleased to announce that due to a deal with 20th Century Fox and American Classics, their official distributor of licensed film apparel, I am now able to sell Officially-licensed Big Trouble in Little China tee shirts, including the offical "Jack Burton" Fu Manchu tank top that Kurt Russell wears in the film!

Take a look at the designs in the new Tee Shirt section. Two of the designs are now in stock, and I am waiting to get in the other ones soon.

October 22, 2009: Due to a intellectual property claim by 20th Century Fox, as of today, I am no longer able to sell unofficial merchandise affilitated with Big Trouble in Little China through www.wingkong.net.

I am working on a way to sell licensed BTLC merchandise in the near future, but in the meantime, I suggest looking at other places on the Internet (Ebay, etc) if you're looking for BTLC shirts, stickers, or tanks. Thanks to all the fans for your support!

If you're curious to see what I've sold over the years, please visit the Merchandise section.

It turns out that Evan Bleiweiss, a writer on The Shield, is premiering his Big Trouble In Little China graphic novel via TopCow Productions @ Comic Con on Friday July 24th, and will be signing sneak peek copies with the artist at 9 AM.

May 9, 2009: BTLC fan David T reports that the Blu-Ray version of Big Trouble in Little China has been released... in France and the Netherlands! Apparently it's a region-free Blu-Ray disc, so viewers in the US can watch it as well. David took some pictures of the Blu-Ray disc and screenshots... check it out here.

For those who would rather wait for a US release, Fox has announced that the film will be available on August 4.

Also: BTLC fan Jeff A has found a proposed Big Trouble in Little China II movie-of-the-week screenplay by Charles Proser - haven't read it yet, but it sounds interesting. [HTML] [PDF]
