Game merch is something that can make the developer some extra cash, but most of the official stuff is way too expensive. Or even worse, you know something would be perfect for a shirt or as a collectable item, yet the developers seem not to realize it.
Recently I was browsing bioware's online store when I came across a particular shirt.
"Morrigan Disapproves -15"
This is the type of thing I only see fans make and then put up online for sale. In fact this was the shirt I was looking for fans to put up online. It was one of those things that I would actually consider buying. In fact, I almost bought the shirt right then (but then I remembered that I'll be needing that money since 2010 is overpacked with games).
Ok, here's the discussion point: Is there any merchandise, in existance or not, for a game that you would just have to buy? It can be something a character's wearing, a t-shirt with a certain phrase on it, a playset of Psychonauts and some LSD to recreate the game, etc.
