future merchandise ideas

Have anything to suggest? A crazy video idea? New merchandise in mind? Write it down here - I'm not saying I'm going to listen, but I promise to pretend very hard.

future merchandise ideas

Post by raocow »

Hey hey!

Now, I'm sure a lot of you the selection in the store is, as of yet, a little paltry: the main reason for that is, uhm, I don't know what you guys actually WANT. So I figured I'd ask you guys exactly what you want, since you'll be the one, you know, buying this stuff.

Be aware that I won't be doing EVERYTHING suggested, of course, but if something sounds awesome enough, I'm totally for it!

By the way, I ain't going to be doing anything that has any copyrighted characters on it. I mean come on, that just ain't cool, yo.

We better start with a list of your most memorable quotes.

With that, you can regularly add new shirts, cups etc.

I'm sure someone can make a start.

I agree with Kilon. Shirts are probably your best bet to start off with, then you can move on to bigger and greater things like raocow the stuffed animal! Pull the string to hear all the greatest quotes! :lol:
WHOA MAN! This is a signature.

Maybe we could make some plaques or something to put up on walls that impart words of wisdom raocow's spit at us. Stuff like "Victory goes to those who are victorious".

This idea may or may not be terrible!

Kinda have to agree with that, honestly. About he colour thing.

Is it possible with cafepress?

StarkMaximum: I like the idea, but I wonder how feasable it is. I, uhm, I don't want to start with things that have too high of an overhead cost, haha

Don't worry, raocow, I was half-kidding anyway!

Half-kidding is the best kind of kidding.

Anyway so I'll spend my time today thinking on what kind of awesome raocow-themed merchandise could be created. OH MAN MY CREATIVE WHEELS THEY ARE A-SPINNIN'

I'm not sure about Cafepress, but Zazzle.com has a lot of options for colors and styles, and their products are pretty good quality; I've bought a few things from them. They also have a good variety of options for you as the seller. For instance, you can choose your own royalty options and they set the price of the products accordingly.

There are no fees to join or anything like that, so it might be something to consider.

Well, apart from the shirts and the mugs you've already have, you could maybe look into mouse mats.

And some pricing details on your art request page would be a good idea.

Ooh, how about an assortment of postcards? Like Happy Birthday or Get Well Soon ones, you know.


And unrelated to your arts and more to your forums (I can't be arsed to actually send an email >.>), my prior experiences with fora is that if you don't at least turn on email confirmation that the captcha isn't gonna block very much in the way of spambots.
By the way, I'm that bl0rkatr0n guy that barely commented on YouTube because YouTube comments are filled with stupid.

I figured i'd let the pricing open so as to more easily negotiate a reasonable price. Is this a universal opinion? Would people prefer 'set prices' ?

I think the general price of a t shirt should be 15 dollars. But thats just my opinion

Id love to see a "Spread death or love around" t shirt with ying yangs everywhere.

I was thinking a shirt that says "You're serious?" and there's like a guy surrounded by an army or something. Basically put someone in a disadvantageous situation.

You can make your very own DVD with some really easy to understand dvd programs and put in there some of your best lp's and never saw before content. Put it in a password only file share site and make us pay some bucks for that password with pay pal :) I would love that.

I think a good idea would be to make a poll where everyone votes for his favourite quotes, and the N ones with the most votes will be made into a T-shirt.

A picture of a heart surrounded by text on the top that says "oh look it makes a little heart!" and then along the bottom it says in really really big, yellow/red text, "AWWWWWWW!"

I think a shirt with the words "It's a Thing" or "That was a Thing" would sell. There should also be some sort of shirt having to do with Charlie, maybe like, some drawings of the various Charlies and the caption reads "Hey there Charlie."

To be honest I really like the idea of absurdist raocow shirts. The kind of shirts that make no sense to someone who doesn't know what raocow is. I know wearing a shirt with a bunch of football players playing sports with the text "hey there charlie" would make me smile.

What I'd really like to see is a DVD set of raocow's LPs. I posted about this in the comments on one of his youtube videos, basically, he could use the high quality originals on the DVDs and charge for those, and keep the status quo on youtube/dailymotion/etc.

Only thing is that there may be copyright issues surrounding it :S

Yeah I think DVDs are out of the question since it's copywrite and all. Then again, I wonder how those guys over on SpeedDemosArchive sell their DVDs of game playthroughs...

A shirt with the caption, "You stupid GOAT!" on it would be awesome.

You could collaborate with Generic CAW and release a CD. That's be all kinds of awesome.
