Amazing, Cult Movie Tees

There's nothing we like better than snuggling up on the sofa under a blanket with a huge bucket of salty popcorn watching old school movies when the rain is pounding down outside! Our love of all the cult classics, has fed our insatiable desire to buy as many amazing movie tees as possible. Here is a little glimpse of some of the highlights.

The Brat Pack

The 80's heralded the arrival of a group of teens who made a massive impact on the movies of the day. Stars such as Matthew Broderick, Molly Ringwald, Ally Sheedy,Andrew McCarthy, Judd Nelson and Emilio Estevez acted out their angst in a series of coming of age films.

Go Cartoon Crazy at TruffleShuffle.

Cartoon Love!! Our personal faves!!!

Being a nipper in the 80s means that cartoons were a pretty big part of my T.V viewing. So needless to say cartoons related products are probably my favourite genre on TruffleShuffle. With so many fantastic licenses and designs to choose from picking one favourite product would be next to impossible. So I thought I would show you my Top 10 products but it actually ended up being my Top 13?!?!?

From early memories of watching Long-Distance Clara on Pigeon Street to running round using Sight-beyond-Sight like Lion-O with my sister pretending to be Snarf from the Thundercats, all the products below jog fantastic memories for me, hopefully they do for you too.....

Business at the front, Party at the back!

Super exciting news at Truffle Towers this week!  We have been in touch with the king of mullets from the wonderfully wacky 90's kids show Fun House, none other than the phenomenal Pat Sharp!

We've got so many fond memories from watching Fun House when we were younger, it was always my dream to go on the show.  I would have loved to run laps on the go karts, speed down the Skelter Belter, traverse the Danger Net, target the trash cans and of course meet the legendary Pat Sharp!

We are very proud to announce that we are going to be working on a few tees dedicated to Pat and his admirable and awe-inspiring blonde mullet.  We are already busy cooking up some great ideas and slogans, but were also wondering if there was anything that you would love to see on a Pat Sharp T-Shirt.  What are your fondest memories of Pat?  Let us know, we would love to hear from you!
