    Anyone know if you can still get those t shirts that used to change colour based on your body heat?

    They used to be about in the late 80's or early 90's I think?

    They were called "Hypercolour". No idea where you'd get one now though. The colour change used to pack in after a few washes.

    Global Hypercolour...I remember those. Girls wearing them always got some smartarse putting handprints on their boobs! I had a pink one that changed to purple but it eventually faded to a nasty shade of grey.

    Not sure if they still make them though.

    ah yes... I'd forgotten about these... I had one of these around the same time I had a digital watch that could be powered up by running it under the tap.

    AFAIK it was Texaco that did the watches and Maxol did the "Free A Nipper". My dad used to own a Taxi and got loads of these things - all of which are in the bin - except for the pink Nipper - I still have this guy!!!
