...other than the manga (hopefully?)

haha I suck, I just have a couple of manga (some english, some japanese). I don't even have GB magazine pages ;A;

I was hoping to get an Akabane hat (lol) because I remember this extra comic about an employee talking about its special uses: frisbee and blocking the sun while tracing or something (wanna frisbee with it too)

Is there even any merchandise in the first place? Err...I guess you guys can also hope for a GB merch you created like uh...Ban's shades, a scalpel necklace (wouldn't that kill?), Himiko's perfumes or something~

I have nothing but half a dozen of the English manga volumes, but they are precious to me!

Some of the local translated volumes......

I kind of wished I have Kazuki's bells though... or Ginji's belt....  OR PAUL'S GLASSES.

I'd love to have: ban's glasses (paul's seem pretty useless) those are pretty easy to get just buy some circular shades (sadly i don't need glasses at all, damn my eyes!), ginji's globes, akabane's coat and his ever bigger hat... maybe his scalpels too ^^. For real merch i'd like a plushie of ban, ginji and akabane.
The manga would be nice too but:
a) they don't sell it
b) even if they sold it it would be too expensive to buy, 25 o 30 bucks for each tankoubon.
Damn the economy!

Protest Song (to Silvio)

He fell mortally wounded from a slash to his guitar
But had enough time to get his best song from it’s cover
And shot his assassin with it
Who momentarily seemed shocked
Taking his fingers to the ears
And screaming
For someone to turn off the lights

Well, I own the whole anime on DVD, all English-translated manga volumes, a wallscroll and two artbooks (one for the manga, one for the anime), so I guess that makes it a pretty solid collection... But if there's anything else I'd want, my answer is simple: PLUSHIES. I fucking LOVE plushies. They are just so adorable! Cheesy Plastic figures with the characters making cool poses would be really nice as well.

Himiko's perfumes sounds like a neat idea! But maybe it'd be too expensive, at least if it's going to cost as much as "real" perfume does...? Ah, but I'd still wear some Acceleration or Red Death perfume any day, depenging on how they smell. Wink

When it comes to GB clothing, wouldn't it be rather easy just to sew it yoursef? Compared to most anime characters/designs, the outfits worn in GB are actually pretty sensible and perfectly doable. But then again, perhaps it's a little too easy; I mean, you can put a plain white T-shirt on and say "Look, I'm wearing the same shirt as Ginji!"... but that's nowhere near as fun as dressing up as, say, Sailor Moon. If you choose to cosplay as her, you actually get to dress up and wear something entirely different from what you're used to, but with GB, it's probably going to feel too casual. You see what point I'm trying to make? Lips Sealed

I agree 'bout the cosplaying, it's like playing L from death note, just put on a blue jean, a white shirt, don't wear shoes and done. But still cosplaying Akabane is not that easy. I've never seen anywhere that kind of coat or the hat (well not for a price I could pay). Neither i could get my hands on Ginji's metal plated gloves (i looked for globes like that and found nothing). I would do it myself put i can't craft anything 'cos i'll break it. Anyway if i ever cosplay i'll probably be some easy to do character like ban or someone like that, it's too embarassing (and too much effort) to dress like naruto ,kenshin, etc.

Aww man! where I live it's close to impossible getting any merchandise... the only things available are of the most popular series, but because it's still REALLY rare it's also freaking expensive... GB manga or even DVD... forget about it.
But... but... I have a chibi Ginji plushie! Grin it was a birthday present from a dear friend, she made it herself so actually... the best birthday present ever!!! Along with another plushie I consider it my treasure.

I've been looking for a nice wall scroll.  I have a whole batch of posters from ebay and one wallscroll that's a knock-off of I think a trading card or postcard.  It's nice enough but I really want something where I can see Ban & Ginji better.  And I would LOVE to get anything with Akabane on it!

Akabane's hat = EPIC!  I would love to have his hat and the scalpels too (if my partner would let me keep them, that is! LOL)

My friend has started making dolls and she made these awesome Ban & Ginji dolls!  They are so cute, I can't believe that she's actually selling them!  I would buy them but I don't get paid for another whole week.
