I'm a fan of the Dr. Who series and I wanted a Dalek tee. Daleks are a fictional extraterrestrial race of mutants from the British science fiction television series Doctor Who.

Daleks  are a bent on universal conquest and domination, utterly without pity, compassion or remorse. EXTERMINATE! Cleanse the unclean! Total obliteration disintegrate! The Dalek tees were printed for me by Serigrafx.

Inspired by my toy soldier hobby and features the ubiquitous Airfix American Marines a lot of guys my age had as kids. I still have these in both 1/72 and 1/32 scales:) Printed by Serigrafx.

The very British sentiment of keeping cool even under extreme duress made the design popular and was the decorative theme for a range of printed products. The parodied design above is in colloquial Filipino which roughly translates into " Keep calm and DENY EVERYTHING " -- a witty and tongue in cheek dig at Pinoy machismo ...
