Weird Video Game Merch you own

[Videomaster21XX]

I debated putting this in the retro game collection, but I feel that's more for the actual games. Not weird merchandise you might have for a game.

What inspired me to make this thread? These:

I was looking through some MLP lunch box things I had and came across these four cut outs and then spent a good 20 or so minutes trying to figure out just where in the hell did I get these stupid things. Turns out they were on the back of some Fruit Snack boxes waaaaaaaaaay back in 2007.

What's some weird (Or cool, I'm not your Dad) videogame merch you have?

Amibo:
I can't even begin!

That's just off the top of my head. There's also small stuff like stickers, necklaces and miscellaneous stuff that came with Collectors Editions. I also have a Mass Effect backpack and jacket. But the backpack has a busted zipper and the jacket has been worn beyond the point of usefulness.

I mean for this to be a broad term in a way, so you can possibly think unique as well. Like what is something you think would stand out?

Like I'd post it more to the megaman thread than here, but I have the MegaMan X Gamecube controller.

Another set of interesting things I have are these:

Sorry for the weird angle. Was trying to get the least bit of my arm/phone shadow in the pic.

The things I'm pointing out are my MegaMan cars, the Zelda car, and that Gameboy candy container. I think I bought it for two bucks back in the day and just hung it on my wall. Maybe I had the plan to open it in a few days or so. I never did. So that candy has been sitting in there since basically 1999 at the very least. Over 25 year old candy.

Needless to say I don't plan on ever opening it now.

Oh, I'm so jealous of those Mega Man die cast cars. I wanted to get those back in their respective days, but for reasons I can't remember, I wasn't able to.

Hmm... I'm sure I have something weird around here, but I'm blanking on what really fits the bill...

Well, there is this...

(That one isn't mine, I just grabbed a pic online, in case it wasn't clear.)

I guess for me the 'weird' comes from picking up soundtracks and art books and stuff for games I don't even play - I just like the worlds, character designs, and music that much. Yes, please, give me the art and design notes for things like SW Fallen Order, the Horizon Zero series, and Cuphead. Some of my favorite OSTs are games these days, whether it's "vintage" like Okami and Shadow of the Colossus, or newer stuff like anything Supergiant puts out (Transistor, Hades, etc.), Journey, Outer Wilds...game music is so good. I've been watching some AstroBot playthroughs recently, and man that's got some earworms.

I have the complete Okami soundtrack, bought online... I did not realize that it also included every single sound effect. Still worth it, the music is amazing.
