lol, yeah 5150 is real and someone posted pics of real Hoodlum decks a while ago (not affiliated with the Skate. team). There's a lot more to starting a company than "some people in a small gaming niche will like it". You have to think about market size, etc. It "could" work, but it's a big risk. You're essentially offering some custom decks and gear that only a small number of people would even be interested in. Im still trying to get my online barbershop going.
Psychonaut is the one I wanted to see real decks of the most, especially the Heshfield-graphics. And then Vice. Psychonaut and Vice have really specific looks and vibes.
Edit: I totally remembered now that DP has a Cafepress-store with logo-shirts.

I was going to have Deacon send me the Morphine Nation logo at one time to get it printed on a shirt.
Never ended up happening though.
That would of been so fucking dope, and pretty sure the only dudes in vegas that would love to have s3 related merch would be me, themike, and tinky.Originally Posted by Roflcopter
i looooove Vice. gorgeous colors (im an 80s baby, '81)
jup, donno what clay does (besides comedy) but im sure hed be an excellent art director
me and my brother have talked about trying to maybe start a local deck company, not going to lie we have cool designs (PM me if you are interested in peeping some)
but I assure you if it ever happened that Halcyon wouldn't be the name... mostly because I feel like a goofball naming a real company after a hobby video game crew
we all swick though
Edit: Psycho, 1954, and Stingray would kill though (all have a specific style)
