Yeah, I liked the picture with the story. Without, hard to understand. 3

General consensus seemed to be that panel 8 would be better than panel 7

I liked the shirt before reading the story. It's obvious enough that there's some kind of violent-robot backstory to be funny.

hmm, maybe if the robot was more detailed and looked a little less golemish.. ya, i realize it's a character from something, but whatever . right now it looks badly done. 1

Well, its a cool design, but the figure of the robot really doesn't look like a robot. He looks more like a golem or a statue or something. 2 non-buyable from me...

ew. I feel like this robot's tragic tale needs to be written down.

Change the sign to "free hugbot". You won't need the narrative then.

no offense to the designer or the design, but I hate robots. they killed my grandfather.

If anyone wants the backstory, the webcomic is at: http://www.biggercheese.com/index.php?comic=602



But to be honest, I think the gag is obious enough without reading it (although, having read it already, my opinion may be tainted). ;)

obviously the robot is free for the taking because he does things that gets blood all over him. figure it out. jeez.

Yoy really don't need to know the narrative to get this shirt. I've never heard of hugbots, but I understand what's going on jus t by looking at the picture.



The robot is giving himself away because he killed his former masters in a way that made him all bloody. He looks sad because it was an accident. It's funny because it's really obvious that the blood stains are why he's free.



Funny, I'd definately buy it just the way it is.

but the fact that it's from hugging gives the robot more character. it makes you feel even worse for him. it's great this way, but i'd buy iit as hugbot : D

It's delicious to say the least.

I'm not sure why you think it looks like a golem when he's holding a sign that clearly says "Free Robot".

I'll be sure to add this shirt of +5 awesome to my inventory.

i really like the concept, but it doesn't work without the title. also perhaps lose the sign.

I love this. It's very emotionally evocative, without losing a sense of playfullness and humor.

for all those who don't put a 5 on this because you say it lacks the backstory i ask you: why then is a goatse t-shirt sold here on threadless without it's backstory?



did you notice the joke? back - goatse? hahahah



i want to wear this t-shirt on my next boardroom meeting so all controls set to $5

Is this a ripoff or is the artist of the shirt the artist of the comic? Because ripping people off is not a nice thing.

oh god it's cute. I'm in love with it.

cool concept, but it would be nice to have the word"hugbot" on his design somewhere, then lose the sign. no backstory is necessary, and it might even do better if the comic were not taken into question. It seems that a new, smaller, autonomous design of the concept might do well for this tshirt.
