How Many Would Pay For Freaks Merchandise Poll?

[BadMoon]

I am interested in knowing how many of you would be interested in Sideshow Freaks Merchandise. Examples would be hats, lanyards, T-Shirts, and other suggestions. I would like to put an idea in to Dave but I want to gauge the interest first before I do all the research. So let me know what you all think. I think this would be a bad ass way to help out the community and give us cool exclusive swag! I have attached a pic of the T-Shirt designed by MaulFan that we received at the party as an example. Also, if you so desire please include the types of items that you would like to see. This is a closed poll so no one will see your input.

I'd rather just keep getting my stuff for "free" at the SDCC parties.


I made damn sure I made it home with that shirt.

I was responsible for a few myself. I still have no idea how I pulled that one off. I am happy to report that everyone's shirts made it back to them safe and sound. Hell I couldn't even barely walk but by God those shirts were getting to those people.

I think this has been brought up before. I thought Sideshow didn't want any official "Freaks" products made.

Hmmm....maybe I should ask Dusty? Not quite sure. Just want to help the boards and Sideshow. They threw such a bad ass party that I see it as a way of giving back. Not to mention the advertising.

When this board was first created, there was an unofficial Freaks shirt made.

Sideshow asked us to stop.

Things may be different now.

Damn that sucks! I want the cash to go to Dave and them. That is why I am gauging interest. I can't go to anyone with a proposal without interest. I also don't want to make any money. Just want to help out. Kinda bummed actually. This works on another board very well. They sell hundreds of T's at $12.99 a pop.

Don't let us stop you- get to askin'!

 

[Batty]

If given the okay, I'd definitely be in for a hat or t-shirt depending on the designs.

I am affraid to ask until I know what the interest is. Obviously I want to make a profit for Dave and Sideshow. If there is no interest then it won't work. So lets just say for the sake of argument that we are allowed. Is anyone interested? I am certainly not going to even attempt direct contact with Sideshow until I know I have overwhelming support.

Good to hear.

And Keith...I'd certainly be interested in whatever is decided (am not creative so my imput would suck ).

I would likely buy one if for no other reason than to give some extra financial support. And I could always use another shirt.

That's the goal sir!

And thanks Weta! I don't think I got to say a proper goodbye to you!

I have thought for a long time that merchandise for SSF was long over do. I would totally buy shirts, stickers, etc...

 

[BadMoon]

Also again this is just purely an interest thread. I have no intentions on doing anything. Just want to see what you guys think. This kinda thing will take a ton of time and lots of talking most likely. I don't want to step on any toes.

What happened before was someone who was NOT me created a design using art from the Sideshow website that was of a licensed product. I got permission from SSC for him to do this to make a t-shirt. Another person who was still not me then went to cafe press and had the design put on every conceivable object they sell - from thongs to lunchboxes and sold them himself with nothing come back to the board or Sideshow. That's when I got the cease and desist.

I'm not sure that Freakboard products would be worthwhile for generating income for the board. I think it's more special if it's a rare thing like these tshirts.

 

[Avfin]

Great idea----I would want a shirt

 

[greatwall]

Front shirt said "Sideshow Freaks" and the back would have your username and the number of the year when you become a member. Just an idea.

 

[Havok]

If we get the okay and it would help Dave keep the board up and running, I wouldn't mind contributing by getting at least a shirt and hat.

I like Greatwall's idea about the shirts having our username and date we joined too.
