I wonder if someone has ever tried to catalog all of the show-related merchandise created over the years. I was in a comics store recently and saw they had lots of “collectible” figurines for like Fat Tony and “I am evil Homer” Homer.
So tell us – what’s the best merch you’ve got?
What’s the worst / most cheesiest / crass thing you have?
If you don’t have anything, feel free to use examples from the show itself. Maybe a nice candy dish or tie rack.
My best is the 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle with a couple hundred characters in the image. I pull it out once a year and build it again 'cause I love it that much.
My worst is a video game from the late 80s called Bart’s House of Weirdness because I don’t have a way to play it any longer, but it’s still stored away in my basement.
I’ve got the Bartman playmates figure and the early Bart plush with the plastic head and blue shirt.
I had one of those plushies when I was a kid, the Bart alarm clock, Bart Simpson’s Guide to Life, the Bartman comic collection, the Simpsons Sing the Blues CD and the Do the Bartman single on cassette.
I remember having Bart Simpson hair gel when I was about 4 or 5 too.
I plan on buying all 6 Bartman comics and doing a 3D print of the Bart style Raven sitting on a bust of Pallis to put above my chamber door.
