MPUK Merchandise...

[Renegade]

Deep in the Multiplay UK Caverns we have had an idea to start selling official Multiplay UK Merchandise and I have been given the task of some PR and finding out what you the customer want and how much you would pay. So far we have ideas for these products:

Mouse Matts - Everglide pads
T-Shirts
Caps
Badges for PC's
Blow up dolls that repeat "Take me Fury Styleee!" (ok maybe not)
Mugs
Posters

Anything else you can think of would be appreciated, we plan to sell these items via our website and at the events but we need to get a rough number on how many people are intreseted in purchasing such items. Please reply to this thread and let us know your thoughts.

Thanks

Beer mats
The BW beer mats lasted about a week I think :D every ****er wanted em - and we missed out :(

Still - a sweet design and not just some poncy
'Multiplay UK' title please :)

[Lomex]

ALLEGIENCE <sp?>

but deffo a good idea - esp if we can buy at the event :)
Try before you buy would be better :D

and I AM NOT A ****ING PEON - thank you :D

[Fraggle]

I think mouse pads idea would own!!

I want a couple already!! :)

There other stuff is a good idea too!!

[Cabe]

Hats would be good, and t-shirts, perhaps a customizeation service? i suppose ~£8 fer a hat, and ~£15 fer a t-shirt, ~£20 for a nice poloshirt

[Thistle]

Blow up dolls that repeat "Take me Fury Styleee!"

[Thistle]

im sure fury misses me:(
so one of these would make his day!!

[Wizzo]

And you could be "design and choreographer" for them no doubt Thistle :)

[neo_ad]

i would deff buy a pc bagde cause i need one
and yeah hats are a good idea too
if i think of anything else i will post it here

[TheGuyver]

How about Pint Glasses etched with a MPUK logo?

Key Holders, Pens, Frisbies (not the ****e plastic ones, the ones made out of fabric with Ball bearings round the egde)

[Thistle]

i'll be the model mate!:)

[Thistle]

oh...no..done that

[Idylla]

lol lol and more lol

[Patch]

how about a 'Multiplay UK Topless Calender 2001'


:D

[Thistle]

would you like me to do all 12 months??

[Strych]

I would go for the mouse mats, PC badges, mugs, pint glass,(T:)P idea!) beer mats, any other drinking-related merchandise, and I would deffo go for a t-shirt if - It actually fitted me
- It had a sminkee logo (summat like the logo on these forums is good - job for you and your design skillz Ren?)
- It had "STAFF" (or alternatively "STRYCH 0WNZ J00") across it in big letters on the back.

Just been looking at this webby - http://www.promotional-merchandise.org.uk and I think some of it would be great - Stressballs for the losing CS clans perhaps? (they even do vibrating ones! :eek: ) Bags to lug round your kit in? Mebee some bugs? (those little furry things you stick on stuff) The Offical BugAlugs Bugs :p Some nice MPUK socks? (I know I'd go for some socks) Or watches? Personlised sweeties? :D And for those really hardened gamers, the Multiplay temporary tattoo? Or maybe you even fancy some "promotional paperclips"?

And yes, they DO do inflatables. :rolleyes:

Go have a look for yourself, and see what you think would look good with [MPUK] plastered all over it :D

[Cheez]

Hey. Wizzo. I wanna sheep unde my name :)

[Wizzo]

hehe... staff privilege... and even then much flufflage and sweet talking is required :)

[Groodles]

Caps would get my vote, so long as they are a decent design. By deisgn I'm not talking about the Multiplay logo bit, I mean the actual basic cap. I hate those cheap nylon types with the foam front, don't you dare use those!

[Chase]

I think that you could do rip off FCUK T-shirts with things like

Beneath this T-shirt I am naked
MPUK

Ah MPUK the establishment.

etc.

Also definitely little fluffy bunny rabbit ears for monitors coz they r0ck. (ooh how l33t I used some numbers </sarcasm> )

[Joey[kins]]

OK - picture the keyring

top line - MultiplayUK
Many positions availiable
(Diagram of Thistle and TheFury mid-sesh)
Position #46
"Fury Style"

Whaddya think?

[Storm]

Creat Idea!
I like the idea of an MPUK Cap and a Mouse Mat :)
My mouse will love that!

[neo_ad]

yeah i could do with a mouse mat too and i would also like a cap any ideas on desgin or can it be anything ?

Neo

[jase]

im all for the Topless staff photo on the front picture of a yearly calander. and on each month, the dates of major lans to be pointed out, ( and maybe even MPUK - just joking )

[Triprotic Acid]

At i6 those posters kept falling down, you couldnt help but catch one ;)

[maxrealism]

I think those swirly things would be good. We had loads of greens ones at I5. They're little 90 degree tubes of plastic that clip togther and are great fun. How about stress skulls like the one promoting Deathtrap dungeon. :)
Err all the previous freebies we've got to promote other people stuff, but with "multiplay - we'll mess you up !" on them !! :) or a cool Multiplay motto.

God DAMN thats a good idea! :D

[Patch]

"Nooooooooooooooooooo we dont want to see lardy topless"




Yes you do :D

[Chase]

Thank you oh Dark Mistress. You could do souvenirs of Hebe's whip, for all those naughty people that share at i-events. Souvenirs like a scar across the ear or a permanent rope burn on the back. :)

[Big Giant Head]

Patch do you know something we don't? ;)

[Patch]

wtf happened to the post i made last night???????????????

:mad: :mad: :mad:

[Wizzo]

Try the near 200k image-containing post got deleted coz it will detract from the actual intention of this thread... for decent feedback about the possibility of MPUK doing merchandise.

[Patch]

spoil sport! :D

[Cheez]

yay. found my first ever post! :)

anyway. what DID happen about MPUK doing merchandise?

[Wizzo]

Yes it is happening... our shop is nearing completion and we will then be able to start stocking it with all manner of goodies, including hardware, software and MPUK merchandise :)

[Guigsy]

[Culture]

[Deano]

[LordPhil]
