I'm sure that many of you Escapists, like myself, have splashed out on unnecessary but awesome merchandise out of love for your favourite brands. It could be that deluxe statue you got with your pre-order, or maybe a Blu-ray box set of your favorite series. This thread is a chance to show it off and look at what everyone else has!





(Vita for scale)

So what horribly overpriced memorabilia do you possess?

I'll show one thing, and one thing only.
I got it this year at Supanova. :D


I am very proud of it.
For it shall serve when the rules of nature permit for it.

I've gone three times.
Once my best friend and I got a early look at The Darkness 2.
The next year we went again, except with his younger sister, and I got my first sword, and I got my Minecraft foam sword signed by Gavin and Burnie from Rooster Teeth.
Now it is this year, I got that Raiden sword, and I also go my foam sword signed by Michael and Lindsay.


... I guess that would count as gaming merch. I should take a photo of that ... if I was bothered ... or had a camera on me right now.

EDIT: Yes though, one year you should. A convention is quite the experience. Even if it is nothing like US ones.

That would probably be the five year anniversary edition of Oblivion I got from Gamestop for like $20.
And a t-shirt with the Decepticon insignia on it.

And that's it.

Not a whole lot of geekiness here.

Well, I'm not known for collecting figures (though I'd really like to get my hands on some of my favorite mechs, mechas, and androids), so I'll share the only figure I have.



Yep, it's the Promotional Lugia Figure from Pokemon SoulSilver. I got this free when I pre-ordered the game.

I'll use any opportunity to show off my various action figures and other doodads! :D















DC Variant Batman. Not the most best picture but I freaking love this guy.



Sam Gideon from Vanquish, still mint in the box. He's pretty rare these days.





Could you guess that I like Vegeta? :p

And even though it's not rare or really spectacular, I just think it looks cool:

This fella owns a Claptrap figure that has a top-hat and mustache. I believe it is obvious that he wins this thread completely. Our congratulations!
The winner's mantle is in the mail and will arrive shortly.

This is an honour! I shall treasure it for the rest of my life! *sniff*

Oh and if you're interested one, it's called the 'Gentleman Caller'. They're fairly easy to find and not that expensive.

I don't have any personal pictures of them. But aside from collector's editions and lots of art/guide books and comics I don't have much. I've got the Castlevania 20th Anniversary commemorative pre-order extras that came with Portrait of Ruin (DS games case, stylus, mini artbook and soundtrack sampler in a cute black box), the Sly Cooper 3 statue, a tiny Freya Crescent figurine that was given out with coca cola bottles in Japan and a Black Mage pin.

Very cool! Though, the lack of a hilt would make me quite a bit nervous if I had to use it. Stick to slashing only, with that weapon! :)

Much obliged, good sir.

A tempting offer indeed...
