Fangamer Selling Pandora Shirt, Mother 3 Handbook PDF

Fangamer, the spin-off gaming merchandise shop of Earthbound/Mother fan community Starmen.net, is finally selling the Pandora's Happy Box t-shirts I featured last April. Once again proving that its setup is a cut above other online shirt stores, the site has even posted a short and well-produced commercial for the shirt, which you'll notice mentions a matching pin that will accompany each order.

Designed by Omnitarian and available in Asphalt and Eggplant, the tee shows a throng of Mother/Earthbound enemies spilling out of a television, though you'll have trouble recognizing the characters unless you've played the import-only GBA sequel to Earthbound, Mother 3.

Speaking of Mother 3, the store is also now offering its unofficial handbook with a print-sized PDF, Fangamer's first-ever digital download product. It's a high quality production with original illustrations and photos of marvelous clay sculptures by Camille Young, not to mention nearly 250 pages of information on the game.

Confident with what the Mother 3 handbook has to offer, Fangamer has put out a free online version that you can view through your browser (in lower quality than the PDF). And if you don't have time to wade through its pages to see if the guide is worth buying, there's a short commercial for this product, too:

Fangamer has also restocked several popular items: PSI Rockin' shirts (shown below), Escargo Express Messenger Bags, and Courage Badge Keychains.
