Writing’s on the wall, as the fate hath decreed. The mega mocha crab will grab the porcelain plaque and rush off onto the foreign shores! Wind will howl in its robotic legs’ wake and none shall stop him!
Must ye assume the worst, master ticketeer? Perhaps it’s only a matter of time until it encounters its mega-mecca-nemesis, the mecca-seagull?
T-Shirt Design
The T-Shirt Design was the result of bringing together of several elements, creating something new and meaningful: such as the Community Lore (the giant Mecha-Crab, looming over the city), Local Landmarks (Norwich Marketplace, Norwich Cathedral, and the Cow Tower, all inconspicuously spread out amidst the trees, and accompanied by a pair of rather amicable ducks!)
