Description: For sale is a UTGP2019 Pokemon x UNIQLO Gyrados/Magikarp BANNED/DISQUALIFIED/UNRELEASED Shirt. It is a size Men's XL (see measurements) and is in excellent condition as seen in the pictures. Brand New with tags THE CONTEST WINNER WAS DISQUALIFIED AND THE SHIRT NEVER CAME OUTQUICK SUMMARY ON WHY:After the judges got done with the monumental challenge of paring that number down to the 24 that Uniqlo will actually produce and sell, they next had to choose an overall winner, and the honor went to Chinese designer Li Wen Pei, with a totem pole-like rendering of a trio of lowly Magikarp and their much more prized evolved form, Gyarados.However, as we pointed out in our initial look at the results, Li had previously used the design on unlicensed smartphone cases and T-shirts sold in China, making his entry a violation of the contest rules, which stipulate that all designs must be new, and not previously published. Uniqlo has since stripped Li of his prize and dropped his Magikarp/Gyarados T-shirt from the line, issuing a statement saying:“On May 20, we announced the winners of the Pokémon-themed UT Grand Prix 2019. We have since confirmed that the grand prize-winning design, as well as one other winner, were in violation of the contest rules, The designers’ awards and prizes have been retracted and their shirts will not be sold. No grand prize will be awarded for the contest. Check out my other listings Payment must be received with in 3 days after end of auction or unpaid Item case will be open
