Bad merchandise

[Roo Beauty]

An inflatable football christmas tree! That's a great idea...


Said no one. EVER.

Lol why is Melbourne on the box?

Surely this is a contender for worst merchandise.

Ah yes, the old 90s trading cards. That made me recall the one below. Genuinely didn't think I'd find a photo but someone is selling them out there. It's Chris McDermott as the thinker (lol) sitting on....?

WTF?
an eagle, with 4 legs and no wings?
I know the eagles hierarchy doesn't like wings, but to banish them on a doll and replace them with another pair of legs?

 

[Wizard]

That takes me back.

 

[RolandF1]

Hah! That one works. There were a few pretty good ones in those sets.

I get the feeling they just stuck a beak on some leftover baby seals. Could do with a clubbing either way.

Is that from when they were trying to decide between the West Coast Ducks, Swans or Eagles?

They're an AFL club.

 

[RodneyMaynard]

This is one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen. Everything about it is wrong.

 

[Greggy Dee]

Why am I imagining one of your mates changing the settings so that it plays the Essendon or Collingwood song instead for you atm...

My Collingwood supporting mum got my dad an Essendon door bell. Much to her amusement, it played Good old Collingwood forever!

Out of three teams to put on the box, surely someone like Hawthorn, Carlton or *Essendon gets a gig, rather than one of the least successful teams in Melbourne.

The West Coast Kiwis?

Obviously this came out of some brainstorming at Wembley primary school....

OK I get your point now, but we know Melbourne are one of "the mans" teams

"Have another one Ben. You'll be right. Go on. We wants the feels. We wants to FLY. Do it Ben! DO IT!"

Yes because heaven forbid they neglect to equate 'success' with 'inflatable Christmas tree'

It was just an observation… I can guarantee it would sell better (no matter how lame) if a big club was on the box though.

 

[inamedthegiants]

Reckon Harley Bennell ever got his hands on some "bad merchandise"

All good -- my comment was meant to be in jest

Says the bloke who hasn't been awoken by his kids at 5:30am wanting to play and pulling up one of these to sleep on the play room floor.

 

[eddiebankbalance]

Plays the theme song. I shamefacedly admit to having a Hawthorn one at my backdoor.

Why do you have a door bell on your shamefaced backdoor?

Whoa... How big is that thing? Is it a beanbag thing?

There are fans queuing up at his back door to get in and party after a Hawthorn win, They can't all just barge right in
