Going to my first "spotting session" for Rogue Trooper with the Maestro today. I'm very excited! Decided to dress as Magnum PI in celebration. Do I need to wear the short shorts, or will jeans work. Also, what kind of shoes did he wear?! - ThreadSky

If you don't have the 'tache and the hairy chest it really doesn't matter what shoes you wear because it doesn't count and people will think you're Jim Carrey instead

Come on! Being mistaken for Jim Carrey for the day would allow some *really* fun behaviour 😁

The type of shoes Grandpa warned you about but Grandma secretly loved.

vfrankensteen.bsky.social•57 days ago

Shoes? Frogman's flippers. Prepared for anything, and can go with everything.

reply

feralgrumpy.bsky.social•57 days ago

I want to say he wore tennis shoes.

manmademoon.bsky.social•57 days ago

Also, I have asked @bazzybazbazbaz.bsky.social the film's editor, to wear a suit.

reply

norska11.bsky.social•56 days ago

The nice looking suit could get an admiring glance or two for @bazzybazbazbaz.bsky.social from the ladies! Excellent wing man, Duncan.😊👍

We want photos after! And if you need a 60 something actress I'm in.

No one could pull off the Khaki suit look, like Higgins.

reply

ismisealexjames.bsky.social•57 days ago

Need you ask? It's gotta be the khaki short shorts! And how about a pair of our 1970s school plimsoles to finish off?

reply

amdramdee.bsky.social•56 days ago

If you don't wear short shorts you are no Magnum PI! A vote for the short shorts.

starrfire71.bsky.social•56 days ago

Short jorts, obviously

reply

alexhilldop.bsky.social•57 days ago

I reckon he'd have in some white leather Adidas or Pumas but for the British touch go with some Golas or Hi-Tecs

reply

snorthover.bsky.social•56 days ago

Gotta say, Mr Jones...

Your film work aside, I'm extraordinarily grateful to you for speaking so much about Rogue Trooper. I'd never bothered with 2000AD too much, but after seeing @iandunt.bsky.social 's review of a Dredd TPB that came out this year, I thought I'd check it out.

reply

snorthover.bsky.social•56 days ago

Your posts on here encouraged me to look beyond Dredd and I'm finding some absolutely awesome stuff. Strontium Dog. Rogue Trooper. Sam Slade. Alan Moore gear I didn't know about...

So thank you, Duncan and Ian!

I'm guessing there were no socks involved.

Somehow I keep thinking he wore socks with sandals…

You absolutely have to go with the shortest shorty shorts possible. It’s what Tom Selleck would want

Don’t forget a Detroit Tigers hat!

Boat/Deck shoes! Please do wear the short shorts. And make sure to take a helicopter 🚁 ride and blast the Magnum theme!

As in THE Rogue Trooper?

Any chance you can do Nemesis the Warlock next?

I think white Nikes will work.

Just make sure you've got the Detroit Tigers old English D cap and you'll be good 😉

I bet it was a boat shoe.

That reminds me of a time…

The Sperry Top Sider is the correct early wear shoe, for Magnum. Sperry still manufactures the shoe in the correct style and color. The color is listed as "A/O TAN", item number 0532002, SKU 8 8612 9188 337 (

As far as I can remember he wore boat shoes.

Make sure you wear a bear pelt on your chest...if you're going for accuracy!

Hate to say it, but after *extensive* research, when he wore the short shorts, his footwear was either tennis shoes, or 😱😱😱 Hush Puppies loafers...😱😱😱
