A quandary

I have in front of me five bottle caps from Wychwood beers. These are good for a (relatively) cheap Wychwood T-shirt, but which one should I get? There are three available by quoting references from bottles.
The classic Hobgoblin Lagerboy shirt: http://www.secureonlineshopping.biz/wychwood/products.asp?recnumber=64
A nifty design with a slogan I entirely approve of.
The White Wych shirt: http://cnb-host1.clickandbuild.com/cnb/shop/hobgoblinns?productID=168&op=catalogue-product_info-null&prodCategoryID=14
The artwork on this is quite lovely.
The England Expects shirt
Sorry, can't find a picture, but it's a red shirt with an England lion picked out in gold and black, a swirly "England Expects" slogan and an England's Ale logo. Just in time for the world cup.
So, a difficult decision. I'm a little unsure as to whether the latter two are still available, given that they don't appear on the current website - I wonder what happens if I order an out-of-print shirt.

So... not interested in a Dogs Loblocks (anag.) shirt then?

Speaking of quandaries, I wonder if you've read "My ten years in a quandary, and how they grew," by Robert Benchley?

Not really, BH. Besides, it seems that you have to get the code to order the T-shirt off a bottle - they're not given on the site.
Paul - No. Would it help?

I liked the first one. If it's free, what difference does it realy make? I mean since you seem to like all of them.

Sadly it's not free, Hyp, but even if it were I'd still want to choose which.
*ponders*
I will go for the Hobgoblin shirt. It's just so classic.

I was thinking "it'll still be available when I've drunk five more bottles", but there will be other shirts to choose from then as well. With that logic I might put it off until Doomsday, which is 8th July 7.00pm BBC1.
