Cruiz'in ebay-February 2015- Bubsy 2 promotion found
While cruising ebay today, that place where I like to buy things but mostly see many pictures of things I like I saw the first evidence of the Bubsy 2 T-Shirt promotion.
But to catch us up, the search for the Bubsy T-Shirt has been a great search. Granted there have been at least three companies that have made some Bubsy themed shirt. And you know, I even bought one from theyetee.com. But there is nothing like having the shirt from back in the day.
So here is a quick timeline of where this search has led so far.
August 2008 - Japanese shirt made... hey, never thought I would actually FIND the actual Bubsy shirt.

Well that is cool, because that is the better version of the back of the shirt I saw online back in October...
Awesome! But then I saw this, which I think is worth adding here...
Now if there is something that &$@$# Tetris taught me on the Nuon, a promotional item has a really small window of availability. Was this a sticker that stores slapped on the game, or something the company did? Really tempted to buy this $40 game (item and shipping) to see if there is a card you had to fill out.
But I have seen evidence of the Bubsy 2 "Bubsy's Back" with one occurrence in the UK and one in Texas.
Pretty cool.
Update --- July 14, 2019
I have a kit together now if you want to create a Bubsy 2 shirt. And here it is...
That has pictures of the two occurrences where the shirt was seen. The one in Texas above, and another that has come to light of the Nintendo Power magazine in Australia:
Here are the graphics files that was scanned from the back of the Accolade catalog that came with Bubsy 2, and these should be good enough to create a T-Shirt with:
