As far as plushies go, strictly the Shadowbabies. Give SB-Becka a tiny one-eyed koala sewn to her hand and her shadowmark on the other, some sort of poseability to SB-Lindsey's pigtails...I imagine myself giving one to my nephew (nearly 2 now), but then I think of all the questions I'd get from his parents.

"Sporky, what is that you gave my son."

"Oh, that? It's just a baby-ized version of a bloodthirsty monster in an online comic not intended for children."

"Uh...huuuh."

The only other stuff I could think of (statues, busts, poseable action figures) wouldn't be happening anytime soon for obvious reasons. Then there's random stuff you could slap the Shadowgirls logo onto, like shirts, wristbands, wool caps, hats, and sell at Hot Topic or Spencer Gifts.

I'm for the ShadowBabies Sladd plushie.

Also, I'd love to see some sort of thing withthe various marks on them, coffee cups, Coasters, or my favorite (but I'd never be able to afford them if you could make them) Glass beads with the symbols etched into them.

Also, Christmas ornements seem to sell well. Who knew?

Hi everyone!! I know this thread got lost early on, but I am here to tell you that there is going to be some new merchandise out soon and I wanted to get some more ideas from the readers before I finalize our designs. Please understand that, while we would love to be able to produce everything everyone wants, we are limited to what people will actually buy. We are considering a few different products and I would like to see what types of things you guys would be willing to shell out cash for. Feel free to add on here or message me with your suggestions. :D Thanks! Here's to giving you guys some great SG swag soon!!

Thanks for the info charles! Cafe Press does have a wide variety of products as well as the print on demand capability. I'll look into it and see if they fit into the plans. I want to make sure that we can provide a quality product, but at an affordable price. :D I will keep all the graphics and product ideas mentioned here in mind while finalizing plans for new merchandise.


Everyone else, please feel free to chime in as well! Thanks!

If I get comic merchandise it's either in 1" button, coffee mug, or t-shirt form.

The good one about CafePress is you can still have your own shop site.
(see Giant In The Park shop here http://www.cafepress.com/orderofthestick)

You can still sell other items yourself (as GITP does) and the more common items such as shirts and mugs are probably best sold by you since their much more common and the profit will be better.

CafePress = less effort, less profit
Yourself = more effort, more profit

After you've got the products worked out on this topic, it's probably best to open up a new topic for each one to get Ideas on prints (mug topic, t-shirt topic, etc), then move onto voting.

But I really think you need the Revolver Devil's Holster thong *lol*

GOT IT!

W. W. J. D (What Would Jesus Do?)

W. W. C. D (What Would Cthulhu Do?)

DRey to create appropriate image of Slaad dreaming what he'd do.

(yes I stole it off OOTS with their "What Would Thor Do?" range http://www.cafepress.com/orderofthestick.190441394 and http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0073.html)

Hi charles. Yes, CafePress seems that it would significantly reduce our profit, however I am not completely ruling it out as it might be a good thing for certain products. I'm not really planning on opening the decisions up to voting, though I will admit that reader opinion might influence the outcome. I appreciate all the input because it will be giving me ideas to use in continually updating the product line. Thanks guys.

But there is so much other Cthulhu merchandise available. I think Shadowgirls merchandise should be focused on the comic.

I'd dig a What Would Charon Do? t-shirt. With an image of her (not all shadowed out) ready to rumble with the 'bitch' stamp brandished.

My two cents on the merchandise. I would like to see shirts, maybe hats, and possibly some kind of sticker?

I want to be able to put SG on my car!
