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.
Simpsons Chess. I swear it’s from like 1990.
A giant Pez dispenser shaped like Homer’s head. It dispenses entire packs of Pez and when you tilt his head back he says, “Mmmm…”
I looked for one of those chess sets. They were expensive!
