"Merchandising, merchandising, where the real money from the movie is made. Spaceballs: The T-shirt, Spaceballs: The Coloring Book, Spaceballs: The Lunch Box, Spaceballs: the Breakfast Cereal, Spaceballs: the Flame Thrower.” – Yogurt.
I have to agree with that famous movie quote from Spaceballs: The Movie. Merchandising is where the money is made, but how far is too far when it comes to attaching a name to a product? Some people think that there are some products that shouldn't bear the name of their favorite video game series or mascot.
What do you think? Could you love a video game franchise so much that you would buy anything with its name attached to it?
Well if you are willing to buy any of the next 10 fake products, then allow me to bestow upon you the title of ultimate fan boy and ask that you back at least 10 paces away from my person. Thank you and enjoy our list of 10 products you never want to see endorsed by your favorite video game series or characters.
Warning: some of the following products could be seen as obscene and maybe of the scary feminine product type.
[Thanks to Dtoid reader, Domataos for the photos!]
1. Sonic the Hedgehog Exlax: For when you really need to go fast.
2. BloodRayne Tampons: For when there’s too much blood.

Abacus?
I would buy the Mario Draino for novelty alone...the others...scary.
I could go for some Chocobo wings right now.
I have to say...thats probably the cutest birth control I've ever seen, am I crazy to want it?
Did you notice that Luigi is seriously smelling his own finger?
Just think, as a plumber, the variety of substances he have the opportunity to touch... Eww.
Was this taken from an old SA Photoshop Friday or is this 'Toid exclusive material?
Dtoid exclusive, baby! Domataos did the pretty pictures for me.
the only one of those that looks like its real is the birth control...the rest of those shops are pretty bad. the birth control looks ready to purchase
Awesome Pics...I would get the Chocobo wings, just for the novelty...and maybe lunch.
@ Fromagex: The shops look great! Domataos worked hard for me and I appreciate the pics.
fromagex: You don't know what you're talking about. The shops are all very well done!
the bloodrayne tampons and mega man viagra are priceless. you too can pew pew pew
i has assumed they were done poorly on purpose...not insulting someones shopping ability.
@fromage
Same thing I tell anyone who's critical of photoshopping...
Provide your own "better" example.
And in cases like these, especially on this site, no one's looking for photo realistic or authentic. If the joke works, it works. I can't imagine what those 7 hour raid pampers must smell like when they're brand new. After all, they're going onto someone who is WILLING to sit for 7 hours already.
hahaha. if you're gonna quote the greatest movie of all time, you better follow it up with the funny. good thing you did!
The Bomberman one would make more sense as a laxative.
If i was a chick, i would totally buy Princess Peach birth control.
I would too - is that wrong?
^_^ I made those lawl
And I love you for it!!!
Chocobo BBQ wings ftw. Breakfast of RPG Champions.
Good 'shops, domataos(and I suppose concepts faith). I laughed.
Interestingly(to me, fuck the rest of ye), george lucas' fortunes are based squarely on merchandising. While negotiating a deal for star wars, he agreed to give up certain junk so that he would maintain merchandising rights. Suffice to say, this was a smart move.
ahahahahahhaha holy sh*t thats f*ckin great
goood post made me laugh
The birth control looks awesome. The quote is hilarious.
@Namelessted: I want to buy them and I'm not a chick. Does that make me wrong?
what happens if guys start taking birth control pills?
If they were real Chocobo wings, I'd have them every Tuesday, especially if they were Black Chocobo wings.
@nameless ted
They grow tits
The Bomberman one was a missed opportunity to reference one of the poison power-ups, diarrhea, which makes you drop all your bombs as soon as you can, over and over again. Otherwise, funny!
This is hilarious. Great job Faith!
Honey BBQ Chocobo Wings!!! I wonder how they taste like, really!
Chocobo wings? Sold.
Yes I must know what chocobo tastes like. Hell, I'm already curious as to what ostrich tastes like.
Ah, the good Wikipedia says: Ostrich meat tastes similar to lean beef and is low in fat and cholesterol, as well as high in calcium, protein and iron.
I'm sold.
I've had emu before, that's pretty much want it tastes like.
Yeah, i would buy the drain cleaner, but nothing else...well, i might buy the birth control because its so cute!!!
I just have one thing to say about the Sonic laxatives.
Blast Processing
EPIC!!! hahaa
Great stuff Destructoid
I dunno about the spartan condoms. personally, when I hear Spartan, I think "TONIGHT WE DINE IN HEEEELLLLLLL" and then anout Halo.
I dunno, may I suggest
Spartan Condoms: For use with MJOLNIR armor. Starndard Issue UNSC.
0.o
Lol spartan condoms.
Thats funny because Streetwise sent people red condoms to promote 300
They came in a matchbook, one side says 300, the date of the release, and the website.
The other site has a spartan helmet and says
"PREPARE FOR GLORY" "SPARTAN CONDOMS"

Princess birth control pills are priceless! When do those go on sale again?... Er I mean... Nice photoshopping, and I love you bunny avatar.
Scary thing is, number 7 would probably actually sell...
Brilliant.
ABACUS!
