Ba ha ha ha!!! That mobile is so awesome!!! :D I'm really tired so I totally can't think right now... Let me sleep on it and maybe I can come up with something cool! ;)
id like that fridge.
I would like something that zaps the husband whenever he even thinks of saying ANYTING that I wouldnt like..
I'm pretty sure if you looked hard enough, you could find an Edward Cullen alarm clock just like that.
So...did you buy the Pirates sack of potatoes?
Why does Big Brother look like J. Jonah Jameson from Spider-Man? :/
(And no way could those itty bitty harpoons pass regulations for infant toys!)
You laugh at the Pirate Potatoes, but when Twilight came out as a movie, WalMart looked like Cullen home-central. The actors/characters faces were on everything from soda cans to potato chip bags. (Which is weird, considering none of them actually eat.)
I'm trying to picture The Hunger Games breakfast cereal -- "So good, your kids will kill each other just to get the last bite!"
That mobile idea is brilliant. And you could use it with so many classics. Like THE GRAPES OF WRATH! Hahahaha.
I would totally buy this. Book on toilet paper. Filled with your favorite lines from your favorite books. Also it would be awesome to have the villian series. Your favorite villian's face on every square, getting their fair punishment. Can you tell I have sons?
Chantele-Isn't it awesome? I can actually see my son loving it as a baby. :)
Read-Yeah, that would be a nice perk, wouldn't it? You could set it on zap mode, pick a specific target. Hmmm . . . ;)
Jeigh-There is! We saw it as we were researching pictures for the post! lol
Also, no I didn't buy them. Because in spite of the dollar more in price, they were still plain old potatoes. :)
Josin-So true! Always when the summer blockbusters come out, the stores are overrun with movie merchandising. Shrek soda pop, Iron Man corn flakes, Spiderman Cheezits. It kind of drives me crazy.
Also, I love the idea of Hunger Games cereal! They could even put little dark berries in it. For the laugh. ;)
Miriam-Hey, I would actually buy a Grapes of Wrath mobile! I love that book!
R.S.J-Another brilliant idea! I think a novel on toilet paper is genius! You read as you finish your business, and then it nicely flushes down the toilet. Love it!
Also, I think kids would really get into the villain toilet paper. :)
LOL Yes, I elect you to get on this, stat. That way, by the time my book comes out (10 years from now) this will already be a "thing". :)
If it were Poe merchandise I would jump all over it. I'm surprised there isn't more book related items out there. I'm pretty sure the ratio is higher for readers than movie goers. (Hugs) Indigo
Kasie-I will proudly merchandise your book. :D
Indigo-It's true! Surely we book readers would bring in a decent revenue if we had the cool stuff to buy.
Good blog!
