I remember Tshirts and cups and posters when I were a kid, don't GW make this stuff any more? I wanted a couple of posters for the flat.

They kind of did for a bit with Warp Artefacts, but I dunno what happened to that. Used to sell a Replica of Archaon's Sword.

Thanks Doc, might have to design my own Ork Tshirt for the lass as well, she's always trawling thinkgeek.

The problem with GW going into merchandising would be not everybody wants to wear a shirt with Spheez Marines on it...

Who would buy them... Kinda pointless.

I might get a shirt with the Imperial Aquila on it, but I'd likely get accusations of being a Nazi or somesuch.

I remember seeing Blood Angel belt buckles a while ago. How wonderfully tacky.

I'd probably purchase a wristwatch if they made one. Shirts don't really do it for me.

I got a free Dawn of War 2 T-Shirt when I went to the Community Day. And free pizza. And free coca-cola. And a day playing the game before anyone else.

That was a good day!

Don't think I've worn the T-shirt yet.

Take a look at thinkgeek, nerdy stuff is very popular on Tshirts, you just have to do ironic is all. Got Waaagh? on a T shirt, in small green letters would sell, a car sticker with 'My other car is a hammerhead' would sell, a hoodie with 4tehGreaterGood would sell. Deathmetal style T shirts with a dodgy chaos marinez coverd in blood the size of the back of it, would not sell. I would love a mug with 'galaxy's best God Emperor' on it!

If the merchandise was alittle amusing or ironic, it would work.

The problem with BL merchandise is that their previews aren't representative of the actual product and all the good stuff is in very, very limited numbers.
