Okay, I would SO buy an Andre the Giant t-shirt.

And now you have choice, in a market which was until recently dominated by Shepherd Fairey.
(The best OBEY GIANT knockoff I ever saw - also, the first - was a sticker that said TONY DANZA HAS A POSSE...)

Yes, now there is a more clearly-printed option!

How many of those do you think will be floating around Union Station in the next few weeks?

OTOH, does the gay community, by and large, shop at Hot Topic?
(I think some of the HS kids do but that's different. Because they're in high school.)

Maybe they're trying to draw a new crowd to Hot Topic?

They've sold pride stuff for a couple of years at least, but it's pretty low-key stuff that would appeal to high school students. (Like a t-shirt that says, "I'm not gay, but my boyfriend is.") I think the Brokeback Mountain tie-in is a pretty obscure and weird one, for that age group!
