Plus, who could forget that Halloween is right around the corner! This month we've got news on that most special (and spooky) of events, another teaser about our upcoming licensed products, XL and 2XL Silent Bob news, and the start of voting for our fun photo CON-test! Goodness awaits in every Newsletter article, so read on! |
Halloween is Coming - Make It Your Best Yet!

 October 31st is on a Saturday this year, so you know what that means: Halloween Parties! If you want to be the stand-out at your Halloween event then AbbyShot has the gear for you. One happy customer said it best last Halloween:
Every party I went to I turned heads - and I was instantly recognizable as the character I wanted to portray. People complimented me all night on the detail and authenticity of the coat - random people were running up to me and asking for pictures! People I didn't even know!- Matt, Louisiana, USA You too can look and feel like your favourite character this Halloween with classics like the Mad Max Jacket, the Vereen Jacket, the Deckard Trench, and the Silent Bob Coat (see the next article for more news about Bob!). The deadline to order IN-STOCK items in time for Halloween delivery is:
October 19th
To order non-stock items that need to be manufactured (currently Deckard Trench, Pill Jacket, larger Silent Bob Coats and Stampede Dusters), please order by:

Silent Bob's Secret Halloween Stash
|
 Many Kevin Smith fans want to honour 'The Silent One' at Halloween, and AbbyShot's coat is essential for the ultimate Silent Bob costume!
Many fans were wondering if our popular (previously sold-out) XL and 2XL sizes would be back in time for October 31st. We've got good news: there's a 'secret stash' for you! ;)
We will have a small stock of XL and 2XL Silent Bob Coats ready in time for Halloween delivery but we must warn you that it is a very limited supply. In fact, half the stock has been ordered already!
If you've been waiting for an XL or 2XL Silent Bob Coat, now is your chance - just don't wait to long to reserve yours!

Mad Max is On the Road AND In Stock!
|
Lucky car enthusiasts got to see AbbyShot Mad Max Gear in person at "RoadWar N.W. 2009" and they loved what they saw!
 Taking place in Tacoma, Washington, AbbyShot was represented by the folks at Mad Max Cars. The photo on the left clearly shows that the Mad Max Jacket next to a Mad Max Interceptor is pretty close to car show heaven!
We had many emails after the show to attest to that, with all fans elated that Mad Max gear is on the market. Not only is it on the market - we have our entire Mad Max line in stock and ready to order right now:
It's all waiting for you right now - perfect for Halloween, your next car show, or for your everyday adventures.
Speaking of adventures - what lies ahead for our friends at Mad Max Cars?
They are doing many appearances in Washington State, but are preparing for the ULTIMATE Mad Max event in November: The Road Warrior Weekend Event 2009 in the California desert! This looks like the be-all-and-end-all of Mad Max events, so if you're in the area you won't want to miss it.
