| Enigma & Jenova Blowout!!
|
 This week the Enigmas and Jenovas are being shipped out as quickly as possible! At one point we literally had an enormous wall of boxes of people's coats that nearly reached the ceiling!
We'd like to throw out a huge thank you to everyone who pre-ordered over the Summer! Your patience is being rewarded now, expect your coat to arrive in the next few days.
For everyone else, the Enigmas and Jenovas are now in-stock and available for immediate shipment! Also, you'll be thrilled to know that we are keeping the low price of $299. That's right, we chopped $100 off the price of both these items and it's staying that way! You can get your own Enigma or Jenova now!

| The End of an Era
|
At the end of the Matrix trilogy Neo finally shuts down the Matrix, releasing everyone from their virtual prisons and ushering in a new era of humanity. Well, we're about to do something that only vaguely resembles this in just the tiniest of ways! :-)
We're going to be discontinuing all our Matrix inspired products. However, unlike Neo, we are giving everyone plenty of advance notice of the impending change. You have until the end of 2008 to buy any of the items listed below. Once we celebrate New Years Eve, they're all gone!
 Here are the designs that will be ending with the end of 2008:
If you've been wanting and waiting, then now is your last chance before they are gone!

| How To Be a Blade Runner!
|
For any Blade Runner fans out there looking to dress up like Rick Deckard this coming Halloween - the bar has been set HIGH! Our friend Donn Nottage - photographer, Starlog Magazine correspondent, and model on our Deckard Trench Product Page - just sent us some awesome video of his night as a Blade Runner. His Deckard costume is exquisite and includes a replica blaster provided by RAC Props and, of course, a fine Deckard Trench Coat provided by AbbyShot Clothiers. You've got to see this video to believe it!If you're a Blade Runner fan and you want the best Deckard costume this Halloween, as well as a premium quality coat that will last for years to come, look no further than AbbyShot! And if you DO decide to be Deckard this Halloween, be sure to send us some pictures! |
| Jayne Hoodies Invade Dragon*Con 2008!
|
 AbbyShot partnered up with the Southeastern Browncoats to bring Jayne Hoodies to Dragon*Con, and fans all agreed that they were shiny!
According to Serenity Richards, chairman of the Southeastern Browncoats, all the Jayne Hoodies were picked up by happy Firefly fans in the first 2 days of the 4 day con! The main reaction at their booth was along the lines of: "Is that Jayne's hat as a hoodie? NO WAY!" That's certainly what we were going for ;-)
Post-Dragon*Con, Serenity gave us yet ANOTHER seal of approval for this most shiny of hoodies! I'll let her explain what happened to HER Jayne Hoodie: "I put it down after getting back from the con and I turn around and [my cat] has claimed it for her own. Browncoat tested, kitten approved. It's going to be a fight to get it back from her." Cute :-)
Seems everyone (and their cat!) is aching for a Jayne Hoodie, why not order your own today?

Sizes Going Fast!
|
Fans of the Max Jackets, GIG Shrugs and Bride Jackets have really been taking advantage of the reduced prices and have been paying attention to the fact that these products are being phased out and will soon be discontinued. Already, many sizes of these designs are gone. Once the stock is all sold, the product is gone too. Check to see if YOUR size is still available. If so, act now! |

Customer E-mail September 2008
|
One customer's e-mail REALLY stood out this month because it's just so cool! Daniel from Denmark sent us pictures, video, and a wonderfully written e-mail all about his new Lobby Reloaded Wool Custom. This is honestly one of the nicest e-mails we've ever received here at AbbyShot, so you'll want to check it out on our AbbyShot Blog! |
