I thought I knew that mummy!
Of course, he, like the werewolf Fruit Brute, are the 2 forgotten monster cereal mascots, never quite made it like the big 3.

Jerky forbidden message... >_<
Sorry 'bout that.
The jersey is indeed a reference to the cool movie The Warriors, which is about colourfully-themed gangs fighting in 1970s New York City. Loosely based on a noted work of Russian literature whose name escapes me at the moment.
Basically, The Warriors are sort of Indian (as in Native American) themed, and their rivals include an all-karate gang, a gang of mimes, a gang of pimps (check out the hats!), and a group of guys who paint their faces and wear full-on baseball uniforms called The Furies. They use bats. ^_^
This should work, take a look:
http://www.nybma.com/events/warriors/ba ... furies.jpg
The film just had an anniversary and was put out on DVD and had a video game put out that acts a prequel to the movie's plot.
So a neat product, this jersey. ^_^
Hope that helps.

I love how Rockstar's game is uber violent (and full of cuss words) when the film isn't that bad.
And even though the Furies look the 'best' of the gangs they are crap in the film, they get beaten far too easily.

 shirts
holy crap -- sweet shirts!
I just checked Cliff Edge hoping they'd have some of 'em but there wasn't anything...yet. They did have a very cool black shirt with what looked like the Captain America "A" symbol!

89 dollars for a t-shirt!No thanks.
MUTANT MASSACRE has 2 new T's that are done,I just need to post pics ,that will only run you 20 bucks and are very dope.
I know Im no bounty hunter, but that is way to much for a shirt in my opinion, they are dope though.
