STYLE is never ending.  It never stops.  Like the relentless tick tock of time itself, STYLE marches on.

Regular readers will recall my recent STYLE post, focusing on my Aquabats outfit.  I said then that this was an ongoing quest, and I have now reached another milestone.

Thanks to their online store, Gloopy, my mission to become a fully uniformed, intergalactic, crime fighting Aquabat was able to progress.

I have now acquired an official Aquabats rash vest!  Worn with my previously purchased Anti-Negativity helmet and goggles, the look is coming together nicely.

This photograph had been previously published here, but as it accomplished the job so well, there’s no shame in reusing it. 

Now I’m just missing an official belt, but as this doesn’t appear to be available anywhere at the moment, I’ll just have to improvise.

My thanks to Gloopy for excellent service, and the awesome Aquabats t-shirt (not shown) I also got.

STYLE: it pays to be SUPER RAD.

STYLE: The Aquabats Outfit

STYLE. It is for the bold. Never be afraid to be different when it comes to STYLE.

We return to the world of STYLE with what is a work in progress. If you’re up to date with everything at Platinum Al’s Virtual Hot Tub, you’ll have seen my review last week of The Aquabats gig I went to in Wrexham. At this gig, I picked up some awesome merch that has enabled me to follow a path long desired.

But first: a brief re-cap. The Aquabats, for anyone not familiar, are a musical punk/ska band from California. And yet they are more than this: they are also superpowered crimefighters, dedicated to saving the world from the dastardly deeds of villains such as ManAnt, Uberchaun and Cobra Man. Their TV programme, The Aquabats! Super Show is a crazy, funny and absurd masterpiece and Platinum Al has become a huge fan.

To join the ranks of The Aquabats, at the gig I purchased an Anti-Negativity Helmet and goggles. They weren’t cheap, but are worth every penny. I’m now working on acquiring an official blue rash guard (that’s the top, kids) to complete my outfit. Soon I aim to be clad in full Aquabat uniform.

STYLE: it’s what you make it.
