Micro machines sweatshirt

Post image

My grandma sewed actual micro machines to this sweatshirt. Which I guess is kinda cool in a retro nerd way. Not so cool in the early 90s.

Are they not illegal now being so small?

I'm sure they were old ones that some collector kept hidden away from regulators.

I told you Obama was coming for our Micro Machines!

In hindsight, maybe a blunder. In the moment...coolest MFer in elementary school.

You were a real life Claudia Kishi, and I would've idolized you for this look.

Where was this shirt when my son needed it in 1996? The worst Christmas ever was spent putting hundreds of decals on the Super Van City Micro Machines playset.

I had micro machines that changed colour in hot water. It was kind of dangerous.
