The t-shirt deal of the day over at RIPT Apparel is the Star Wars-inspired Valentine’s Day shirt called called “K9 Loves R2.”

The tee, by artist zerobriant, went on sale at RIPT today, Monday February 14, 2011, at midnight CST, and will continue for 24 hours from then, and once it’s over, it will not be sold on the site anymore.

The design has a robot dog K9 from Doctor Who falling in love with Star Wars droid R2-D2 because he thinks R2’s a fire hydrant. In the background, C-3PO finds the scenario amusing.

The t-shirt is available in men’s and women’s sizes for $10 each in black. Kids sizes are $15 (Boys, Girls, and Toddler in black); Onesies are $18 (in black). You can also get the design on a Hoodie for $38 (in Men/Unisex sizes in black).
