View new posts | View your posts Q. Where can I get a GB logo patch?

---

i'll pay for 9% of a BJ, anyone wanna chip in?

Well,

My patches are fully embroidered and they don't have an ugly white stitching. If interested, just email me.

Why are the patches fully embroidered when the ORIGINALS are NOT?

The answer is simple: durability, quality and customer's respect.

All original props (not only patches) were made for the production usage time only. After the "shooting" months, the props will last in some storage building (or go to one "Planet Hollywood"), but will no more be used. So, it should not need to be resistant and last long.

For fans it is completely different since fans will use the costumes many times and I believe they deserve a long life/good quality product, not one that can "die" soon.

Thanks for asking.

there are some fans who would actually like a sloppy, unembroidered no-ghost patch like the screen used ones

Hi there kin2311!

I do agree with you. I think it is each one's choice.

Anyway, I believe it is good to have all these options out there.

Thanks!

Just because a patch as a fabric ghost does NOT lessen the quality nor make it 'sloppy'. When fans are trying to produce the most screen accurate costume, why not go completely accurate with the patch?

speaking of screen accurate, kathy, both your GB1 and GB2 nametags need work to be just that.

i dont know if thats what your striving for, but if you could produce a more accurate tag, you could corner the market since people don't want to buy from kerezman

Hi there!

I'm not saying your (or anyone's) patch is bad quality. I just said what is real. Screen used patches are made only for the shooting time.

And it is a fact that a patch made like the screen used one will have it's life shorter than one made to last.

Again, I'm not pointing fingers to you or any one. I'm just saying based on embroidering technics.

Kind,

I would like to hear your comments about my nametags, by the way. Here are some images from them:

Nametags

GB1 Style nametag


GB2 Style nametag

What you think?

I know there's the Kingpin GB Nametag font in DeviantArt which adds those angles seen in the first film.

Hi there!

The font is great (I downloaded it, btw), but the problem is to use them. Some machines did not accept external fonts (only accepting some fonts that comes with the embroiderer system).

Anyway, I'll try to use it.

Thanks!

Edit: I ended up finding what I was looking for! Hope you get new sew-on patches, soon, AJ!

I bought this patch, not my cup of tea...but its going to work for the time being...be cool if you guys sold yours on amazon! I have the money!

any reason you cant buy them directly through the GBFans store?

http://www.gbfans.com/shop/uniform/

Well,

I have mines here, at US$16.50 each (free shipping included - shipped in a regular non-trackable envelope).





Just email me in PVT for details.

Quick update: I'm out of stock for GB2 patches at this moment. I may have more next month.

GB1 arm patches are in stock.

Sorry for this.

Because Paypal sucks, and they stoled my money...

www.QualityEmbroideredPatches.com I went here for my patches, yes it was pricey, but I didn't have to use "Pay Pal" I told them what I wanted and sizes too, and My last name with the GB1 "Stantz" font. I will post later

I don't really like the way the ghost is embroidered. Why don't you just use white fabric like the real patches and like the ones in the GBFans shop?

Vincenzo,

the answer is simple: because the white fabric can become dirty faster than the embroidered ones.

And the embroidered patches have longer lifes if fully embroidered. Well, all patches I have that have the exposed base fabric had not as long life as fully embroidered. So, this second comment is my own experience.

Anyway, there are many people who prefer a fully embroidered patch and I prefer sell you one patch that will last longer. Not saying others will not last, please. I just prefer to offer the longest life patch as possible.

Thanks!

can someone post a pic of the what the "iron on" GB 1 patch looks like on a suit, if anyone has one? im thinking about getting the that patch from GBfans site but i would like to see what it looks like on a suit.

Guys,

I shouldn't be the best to tell that, but even iron on patches need to be fixed on costume with regular lines. I mean, the iron on system is not "final". After some time of "work", it may unglue.

This happens thanks to many factors, like body's transpiration (our transpiration has a chemical component that dissolves and cuts any glue's properties, even superglues!), hot weather, etc...

Please, I'm not flaming anyone or pointing fingers to anyone's iron on quality, ok? This is why I don't sell iron on patches, in case someone decides to ask: because they are not guarantee of long life glued.

Thanks!

well i would still appreciate if anyone could help me out and post a pic of how a iron on GBfans pactch looks.

I'm with Pete. Until the no-iron patches come back into stock here at GBfans.com I'm thinking about getting an iron-on and just sewing it on like a regular one. Anyone know of any reason this wouldn't work? Or, are the non-iron patches going to be back in stock anytime soon?

I have regular patches on stock.

Just email me for info.

They are exactly the same aside from the iron-on glue. If you don't want the glue you can simply iron the patch onto some tissue paper and pull it off while it's still hot. If I were you I'd get the GBFans shop's patch, the quality is unsurpassed.

i wanted to see a picture of how the gbfans ironon patch looks only to see the difference between the one i have now, which i got off amazon and am looking to get a more accurate one. this is the one i got now:

http://www.amazon.com/GHOSTBUSTER-Movie ... B0012RQX9M

so i wanted to see what the gbfans one looks like to compare.

Pete, Vincenzo posted pictures of the GBfans patches a couple posts above. It's the same fabric, stitching as the non-iron patch. I think they look better than any other I've seen and that's what I ordered.

I like you because your name is Potato.
