I didn’t know where else to post this. I bought the Venkman’s Uniform T-Shirt off this site, and it says it has glow in the dark spots. Well mine doesn’t glow. I just wanted to know if anyone else had this problem of if it was just me.

It is possible that these are not the glow in the dark type.

I will look into it. Does anyone know if there was a sticker on the package that said it was a glow in the dark style shirt?

Mainly going off of 80’s Tee’s… they _should_ be glow in the dark shirts.

That’s weird. I have the Venkman logo shirt and mine most certainly DOES glow in the dark. I’ve seen it do so as recently as last week. Hmm… maybe they made versions of the shirt that don’t glow too.

Mine glows fine. Thing is somebody used bleach in the load before me and now I have little holes all over the back of it where it ate through the fabric ☹

I needed a smaller size anyways…

Target is selling a “fake” Venkman shirt that doesn’t glow in the dark. It just has green slime effect.

At least I know I’m not crazy or stupid now…at least as far as the shirt is involved. Mine must have got mixed up in the shipment or something.

Is there something on the back of the shirt? I was thinking about getting one. It would be really cool if there was a [Proton Pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) on the back, but I’m doubting it.

Nope. Just plain. Still a cool shirt though. I’m wearing it right now, actually.

Mine too, it even has the “glows in the dark” sticker on there. It’s not ‘fake’ it’s the same shirt.

Weird. I saw one in Target and it had the glow sticker on it; but didn’t glow. It was just a green painted on effect.

Anyone recall the thread where someone posted a toon image of the [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) to make an iron on for the back of the shirt? I forgot to save the image.

I’ve been trying to figure out if there are two different versions. I’ve seen some, like the ones being sold here where the slime looks different:

![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/shop/uniform-shirt.jpg)

and some where it looks green:

![image](http://i10.ebayimg.com/02/i/001/0a/ag/8290_1.JPG)

Maybe the “fake” one being sold at Target is different. Also it seems like the pockets on the 2nd shirt are a lot higher up then on the first one. I want the shirt but I don’t really care for the green slime so I was hoping that there were two different versions. But maybe the pic on the site here was just a prototype or something and it’s not the real pic of the shirt.
