Everyone wants Sam and Max plushie dolls.

But...I thought of something just as cool that I'd surely want to own.

    I'm probably one of the only ones, but I'd love the LeChuck one even more. It'd be difficult considering the pins, but maybe if you slammed it around it'd yell at you. Just imagine the guttural screams! "I'm going to make a chair from your bones" and "Don't make me spit caustic bile down ye throat!"

    I would definitely BUY them if there were any!! That's really a great idea. Specially the LeChuck one.

    Oh please, Guybrush dolls went out in the 90's (it true, I sold out of them then).

    What the cool kids crave today is their very own Marquis De Singe Idol Twister Patent pending

    This life like simulation is a hit at parties. Did I mention it's educational? It names off every single King Louie that ever did (or didn't) exist! Order now and we'll throw it a pyrite parrot ABSOLUTELY FREE! "Who's the mightiest pirate of them all?" YOU DECIDE!

    Operators are standing by.

    their telephones.

    waiting for you to call and take advantage of the deal of the century!

    Warning: Marquis De Singe Idol Twister is a choking and nightmare hazard for children under the age of 3. Once you program your pyrite parrot, you cannot reprogram it. Must be 21 years of age or older to order. Please have your library ID ready for proof.

    Is it bad I could actually hear Stan's voice in my head as I was reading that? ^^

    I want the LeChuck doll from Curse.

    Also, I want a Stan doll with his arms flailing about.

    I want some LeChuck, Elaine and Guybrush toys I can play with! And my own personal Screaming Narwall toy ship that actually floats.

    I'd rather have a plushie of the Screaming Narwal from Majus's animation...

    Come to think about it, I'd love a copy of "Guybrush Threepwood's Journal". Half the pages would be filled with his really funny entries and the other part would be just pieces of paper and things like this we've seen in the game. You can have a diagram of La Esponja Grande, some tarrot cards, Club 41 membership card, a few maps of the carribean maybe the Cutlass of Kaflu recipe, some of the diagrams from DeSinge's place, a cutout of Keelhaul gazzete, Morgan LeFlay's leaflet... I think you get the picture.

    like the "caribbean journal" prize from the treasure hunting game only for the whole season and as an actual print? this would be really nice merchandise...like a tomi case file.

    there is an actual book like this for indiana jones, being made up like an actual journal and containing information from all the movies...and fate of atlantis, i think.

    i imaging however, that such a thing would be quite expensive to make and thus wouldn't qualify as a "5bucks-item-that-you-order-along-when-getting-the-free-disc"-item...

    I've wanted to get a hold of that Lechuck doll from CMI ever since I saw it:D

    So cool!

    I can't really say I care much for toys, plushes, figures, or other things that just sit there and look pretty.

    Paradoxically, I approve of and adore art prints.

    Wow, just downloaded it. That's exactly what I'm talking about, but with more text from Guybrush and some more concept art.

    Well, maybe not hard cover, but maybe a comic book type of print might work.

    I'd still prefer Sam & Max plushes, but more Monkey Island merchandise would be awesome too.

    I want an art-book with all the amazing drawings and paintings even made for any MI games, especially the ones by Steve Purcell.

    Wasn't there a LeChuckie doll in one of the games, or did I just make that up? Either way, I want one of those.

    EDIT: Apparently it was in Curse of Monkey Island, though I can't seem to actually find an image of it anywhere! Could someone help me out?

    Also, an earlier poster mentioned an Indiana Jones diary. I think he was referring to The Lost Journal of Indiana Jones, which I own and thought was a wonderful tie-in. Maybe something similar to that, like Guybrush's diary, could be made. I bet that'd sell a fair few copies.

    In 4, yes.

    EDIT: Oh yeah. Art book for MI would be sweet.

    LucasArts have never capitalised on the merchandising opportunity. If Gene Simmons can do it with Kiss, I don't see why MI can't be a similar runaway success.

    I don't think it's in Telltale's licence, unfortunately. It would have to be something like the Voodoo Lady's ex's journal, where it's all characters, places, items and concepts Telltale dreamt up in the first place.

    Hire Steve Purcell or Bill Tiller! :D

    I'd also like one of those plaques, you know, the one with the spit from the pirate who slayed LeChuck on it.
