Stange Products

Sicirus · 11-21-2003, 11:09 PM

Iput this thread here because I thought it appropriate to put it were it most relates. I mean since the movie of the lord of the rings came out allot of toys and trading cards and stuff has been produced, to my great disgusted. (I think their making lotr into some kind of profit thing and that’s it) (No offense of course my dear mellons)

This thread can be used to express ideas of the worst possible toys or products that could be sold based of lotr.

Here are some examples I thought of during fine arts class (yes I day dream when I'm bored)

A gollum toy that sits next to the door and when someone comes in it says, "You will not steal my Precious!" That ought to scare a burglar (sp) and you.

A stuffed Frodo that does the same. A stuffed Sam bed protector.

A Shadowfax costume for the dog for hallows eve.

Elvin recopies book. (Though that might actually be fun)

Maps (relating to our world) to find different places in Middle earth.

Ok that’s all for now. Have fun.

**Nurvingiel** · 11-23-2003, 12:03 AM

Actually, I think the map one would be cool. But those other ones are cheesy. I heard that they made a Harry Potter 4 poster bed! What if they made a Lord of the Rings Elven Flet, to be assembled as a child's tree house? Sells for $300 and is just an ordinary platform.

Beor · 11-23-2003, 03:14 AM

I agree, the map one would be cool, but I think that if I had the time and money, I would probably just do it myself, and find things that correspond with my own imagination.

------Gandalf fireworks!----------

------Ringwraith costumes: $75, and its only some cheap black bedsheets----------------

Millane · 11-23-2003, 04:22 AM

hmmm i actually bough a Gandalf starter deck for the lord tcg and i dont think its tacky but i didnt think it worked well, or maybe we just played **** because two of my crappy minions could easily take down boromir and aragorn (and they did

)
a lot of places do sell lord costumes but they arent official new line stuff...
i bought a helms deep battle set

and ill probly by some return toys aswell... the weta sculptures are awesome though, theres a really good Galadhrim archer that im gunna get...
mmmm they could try and market Lembas like Harry Potter tried to sell all there lollies, that's be pretty horrid

That would be awful!

Here's one that already exists: You can own Arwen's pendant thingy! How dreadful.

hectorberlioz · 11-25-2003, 11:47 PM

its really getting nasty, this product stuff.
i'm starting to see pringle cans with rotk stuff on it...

i think the worse product scenario would be lotr barbies and kens.
imagine all those legolas fan girls fighting over legolas dolls!

i know they've already done dolls of lotr. but the barbie company gets everything too.

jerseydevil · 11-26-2003, 12:00 AM

I woudl like to see a Peter Jackson toilette seat. Maybe a toilette deodorizer thing with his face so it can go right into the tank.

hectorberlioz · 11-26-2003, 12:04 AM

lol, that would be great.
or a punching bag with his face on it.

Next month - we will be offering the Jackson toilet paper to go with the toilet seats.

I would say Arwen too - but I think I have made Liv Tyler cry once already by the sounds of it.

HA!!! I'm not falling for that again!

Too bad they aren't real products.

*sticks money back in wallet*

**Nurvingiel** · 11-26-2003, 03:41 AM

Off topic, but why did you make Liv Tyler cry JD? Curious.

I think a funny one would be RotK bandaids. I actually saw Harry Potter ones - pretty cheesy!

Azalea, I think, in the TT Extended Edition thread or one of the other threads mentioned that Liv Tyler said she cried because of the "Xena-Elf" comments. I was the first to call her character Xena-Elf back when FotR came out. I don't know if this is true or not - but I don't want to make Liv Tyler cry. It's Jackson's fault anyway.

By the way - JK Rowling said that some of the stuff that she nixed for Harry Potter merchanidise was way out there.

cassiopeia · 11-26-2003, 04:39 AM

They could have a huge plastic PJ ar*e for some people to kiss. Not looking at anyone.

BeardofPants · 11-26-2003, 05:46 AM

Yeah, but that doesn't stop me... *pointed look at JD* ... Kidding! Kidding!

The Gaffer · 11-26-2003, 02:58 PM

How about a giant corkscrew for purists to remove obstructions from their arses? (also joking)

BeardofPants · 11-26-2003, 04:26 PM

Hmm, Gaffer, do you think the corkscrew will be enough to pull BB out?

The Gaffer · 11-26-2003, 05:00 PM

If it's the Grond(TM) Arsecleaner, it'll get anything out (100% guaranteed natural ingredients; not tested on animals, or at all for that matter)

Though, I would have to ask what he's doing up there in the first place.

BeardofPants · 11-26-2003, 05:21 PM

I think he crawled in there after I stuffed Peter Jackson up there.

Sicirus · 11-26-2003, 08:06 PM

HOw about Lotr boxers and panties???? Have Frodo on the front of your......

Or the worse... Lord of the rigs cereal. (Frodo puffs or Sam's special conie cereal)

Or a fish product named after Smeagle. Eat 'm raw.

Boromir's bugle or horn. That would be pretty bad. Those things are really hard to blow though.
