Where can I buy T-shirts like the members from the old 70's cartoon "Battle of the Planets"?

I'm trying to find a specific Ringer Style T-Shirt and I 've tried the usual online outlets with no results. The kind of shirt I'm looking for has the chest part blue the ringer around the neck is red. The left and right sleeves are red but the ringer fabric is blue on the sleeves. I'm trying to piece together my Halloween costume this year. If anyone has any ideas for a solution I'd greatly appreciate it.

The kind of shirt you want is generally called "raglan," if I'm not mistaken. Lots of places sell them, but I couldn't find one that had the contrasting cuffs you're looking for (if indeed, I'm understanding your description right and you want the wrist cuffs to be a different color from the sleeves).

If you can find one that has all the right colors except for the cuffs, you may want to consider using it, but replacing the cuffs or wearing blue sweatbands or something around your wrists to mimic the right colors.

try www.zazzle.com. they sell custom t-shirts and I'm pretty sure that you can find this style there.

Gatchaman. So that's why they called themselves G-Force. I always wondered that.

Man, I loved that show...
