Possible Paradox Merchandise

Unread post by trogdorable » Fri Aug 07, 2009 3:31 pm

You know you want it. But what do you want exactly? If there were to be items for sale IRL from Paradox, or Paradox-related, what would you want to buy? There's the obvious T-shirts, stickers, etc.. but what would you like to see on those?

Keep in mind for non-traditional merchandise such as figurines, non-shirt clothing items or food that there would obviously be no bonuses/benefits. I was going to leave that stipulation out as a no-brainer assumption, but I'm throwing it in there anyway because, well, some of you are special. Also food items may be edible in-game, but we are not talking about edible RL items. All goods will be non-perishable, non-consumable.

So... Let's hear it!

I propose a tshirt that says "You are fighting a gazebo" with a picture of the infamous gazebo.

oh, and one that says "It's About Time." with the pdox logo, whatever that may be.

Dude, I'd rock a t-shirt with a huge image of Professor von Noob's face on the front.=o) In fact, i'm picturing one of those ridiculously long t-shirts that 'gangstas' wear. I saw one once with Fred Sanford on it. It was amazing. So yeah, von Noob...he's the king, baby.

Yeah I like the idea of Von Noob better than the gazebo, no offense guys. Just the gazebo doesnt specifically scream Paradox. Definitely looking into the Von Noob thing.

Wow. Seriously? Nobody has any more input on possible merchandise they'd like to see? I don't want to be making prototypes of things nobody would be interested in buying, so I was hoping for a few more suggestions. You know, besides the obvious T-shirts, as I have already said.

if it were at all possible, pins would work well. I think the big choices to make are which graphics to use on said merchandise.

How about a pocket watch that runs counter-clockwise? That would be most awesome. Or an empty bottle with a "Dixon Cider" label on it. Or a "Paradox: The Musical" DVD case mocked up to look like an actual movie? The intention being a conversation piece, so a disc wouldn't need to be included, but if you did, you could put video from Gobb's US tour/Paradoxicon on it.

I like your ideas jupider. That's more the kind of stuff I'm looking for. As I stated in the first post, I'm also very interested in "non-traditional merchandise such as figurines, non-shirt clothing items or food"

Here are some examples/ideas I had:

Von Noob mask
Token of Appreciation or other Token Items translated to real life
Some sort of Really Bad Joke dispenser
Hug vouchers (maybe? This would be super easy. A free printout sort of thing.)
Not-at-all-magic marker set with Paradox themed whiteboard
Security Cards/Identity Card


Stuff like that I think would be more fun than just the typical merchandise. The typical stuff is pretty much a given. Bracelets and pins would be really easy right now, but decent quality/reasonably priced shirts could be a little more difficult.

by bracelets I assume you mean the LiveStrong knockoff bracelets? that would be AWESOME.

If we're getting crazy, why not rings modeled after the Promise Ring of Content, or something.

I would greatly enjoy a pocket watch with "It's about time." written across the bottom of the backing on the inside, and "Paradox! The Musical" written along the bottom of the same general area. Then again, pocket watches are pretty cool in general.

Another good idea would be hats with Von N00b on them, maybe laptop cases with the Paradox timepiece on the front of it, with a quote from Von N00b, maybe, "Time is such a Paradox, how about a musical?"

ps hope it is not too late for ideas to be posted...lol
