Worst game specific merchandise

[Menckenstein]

There's awful action figures, shirts, posters, JEEPS... ITT we will gather and post the worst game merchandise.

Here's your starting image

 

[EG]

I don't know . . . It has resulted in mild amusement. Something truly terrible shouldn't do that.

 

[deuxhero]

Plus it's technically bootleg

 

[Menckenstein]

Fine, fine:

Ethan Hawke's weapon from DA2 OFFICIAL replica

 

[Whisky]

Catherine Pillow-Case.

 

[Duckard]

$500 made-to-measure coat based on Liquid Snake's (MGS) character design. It's not a costume, it's an actual fucking coat that people wear when going out. I wouldn't be so upset if it didn't look ugly as sin, and they didn't have their model wear a trench over goddamn t-shirt and jeans:

At least the underwear is good for some lulz. This just makes me sad. Although, I guess you could laugh at their shitty modeling job.

 

[EG]

500$ nylon coat. Interesting. I don't remember the giant shoulder pads . . .

 

[Humanity has risen!]

How can this ever be topped??? There are no words.

But I think that the 150$ special editions of console games are even more offensive. It's basically all a bunch of plastic that costs next to nothing that serves no purpose and that the user will probably never look at more than once after he's opened the box. It's just a mean to turn videogames into a high margin product and exploit the stupidity of hardcore fans.

 

[Outlander]

That coat looks like something out of Blade Runner.

Also:

As far as I know these ended up in retailer stores, but still, someone had to pay for them. Oh wait, YOU DID if you ever bought a Bethesda product trolololol.

This thread needs more sgc_meltdown.

I see your MGS coat and raise you Desu Ex

I see andhairas dreams of working for a games company came true

I'd actually buy a Desu Ex trenchie if it was leather with embossed shoulders like the one AJ has, OR at least had the embossed shoulders part while not being leather, since I like trenchies and that one's a good length plus cool detail. Unfortunately the one they're selling is some kind of Generic Shit.

You'd actually wear a black leather trenchcoat with embossed floral motif on the shoulders

I dunno. I'm not a fan of the plugs on the back. OtOH if it was nice & warm and wasn't hellishly expensive once postage and import tax got added on top it could make a pretty good substitute to my aging burton shell jacket for when I go skiing.

And when people'd ask me why, I'd answer, "I never asked for this".

But yeah, people wouldn't question my straight manliness even if I wore it in hot pink, anyhow.

Well that's another thing, it should be at least somewhat warm, another thing at which the merch jacket fails.

[Angthoron]

You've got to be kidding.

 

[Ulminati]

Not nearly as cool as the Command & Conquer humvee from the 90's.

 

[dbx]

They also made a tomb raider themed Land Rover Defender years ago.

Wow that's intense. What he wears under the coat is unimportant, because this is a coat for flashers.

Yeah, I think we all see what really sucks about this.

A jeep is meant to last, and is kept for a decade or more.

In a decade, people would have forgotten the Call of Duty games and would have moved on to the next most popular trend. Just like Command and Conquer and Tomb Raider, it will be yesterday's news.

So how dorky would it look to celebrate a long forgotten, passing fashion trend in gaming on your vehicle? Pretty bad.

I find myself agreeing with a wyrmlord post!

 

[Menckenstein]

I would own one of those Jurassic Park Jeeps or Explorers and drive it every day, but I agree with Wyrmlord about the game cars being fucking retarded.

 

[Wyrmlord]

Oh gawd why?

It's terrible.
