View Poll Results: Which T-Shirt Would You Buy & Wear?
Might I suggest that next year, don't change the designs from one round to the next (or in the middle of a round). It's like voting for chocolate ice cream then being told "Congratulations! You're choice won, now here is rocky road." Kind of makes you wonder what the point of voting in the first place was if your selection is just going to be changed anyway. If there are changes that need to be made, make sure it's done before the competition and voting begins.
Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.
Sorry about the design of the Evolution shirt guys. We were told to redesign it with a vertical timeline and dropping any mention of evolution so as not to offend people who don't believe in that kind of thing. I now see that it is killing our chances.

This somewhat should have been expected. Go look at the final design that everyone voted on and compare it to the shirt that was actually sold.

I would have actually bought the original. Now I won't buy any. Good going.
And who gives a flying fudgecakes if people don't believe in Evolution.
Evolution doesn't have to just refer to the evolving of a species.
I don't believe attractive people play Heroclix. So the other one offends me.

Wait, what happened to the original 'Evolution' design? It was so much cooler!

Minor nit: NECA bought WizKids, not Wizkids

Did the design actual change, or is this an attempt to make people not vote for it?

So you told to redesign the shirt to be politically correct. THAT IS BULL. To many things are changed now a days because someone MAY be offended. We are living in a time of the tyranny of the minority. I do not talk about stuff like this on this site because I go here to get away from things like this.
For this reason I will not be buying any shirts.

Reason: added not buying shirts
The day is coming when a single carrot, freshly observed, will set off a revolution. Paul Cezanne Help create a venue map for Clix check out my blog Connecting Venues & my Google Map.
FYI: I still voted for it, with the hopes that it would go back to its original design.
Same with me...

I had a feeling that it was something like that which to me is just completely ridiculous. The shirt didn't say anything about humans evolving from apes or "God didn't create man". Evolution is a word. It doesn't have to be attached to the religious debate regarding creationism. HeroClix has EVOLVED since its inception. No one can argue that the game has not changed since Infinity Challenge. For someone to be offended by that shirt just baffles me. I'm totally behind people having the right to believe what they want but there was nothing remotely offensive about the shirt in its previous design.
I mean if we want to take it further you could argue the other 2 shirts are offensive. One flaunts copyright and mocks nerds. The other is based on a line from an extremely violent movie involving drugs. Won't someone think of the children?

Bingo! I voted for the Evolution one hoping that it goes back to the original design. I think they were ill-advised. I mean, all it takes is a look back over this thread and everyone can see that the original design is preferred. Sounds like that would translate into dollars.
