Watch me whipe the drool from my chin...

SPIKE LIFE-SIZE CARDBOARD STAND-UP

He's so hot...

You know what's weird? They're so afraid to market B/S as a couple-- no books, no posters, nothing with them together except one not-very-good t-shirt... and yet no one seems to have any problem marketing just Spike paraphernalia. I mean, for nearly everything that exists with Buffy or the buffy cast, there's an entire separate line of the same items devoted just to Spike.

I want Spuffy stuff! I want a Spuffy poster dammit! I'm just sick of seeing new Buffy merchandise that uses four-year-old pictures of Buffy and Angel together... when that ship is now moot on both shows!


but stil... drool-worhty stand-up. If I had the cash, I'd buy it.

Eep! i just discovered that last night!

I want one sooo bad!

I agree about the Spuffy stuff. . . I just don't get it! Why won't they release at least a few things? It doesn't give me too many warm and fluffy feelings about the future of the couple.

Spike is definitely thier cash cow! And for that I won't complain.

The lack of Spuffy stuff baffles me, too. It's an enormously popular 'ship and it's not like the merchandisers have to get ME's approval, since they purchase the merchandising rights and then do what they please. But, obviously, they're not stupid because they have LOADS of Spike stuff -- who's a supporting character, not an eponymous lead (like Buffy or Angel) -- and wouldn't produce so much of it if it didn't sell well. In fact, i think the Spike calendars out sold both the Buffy and the Angel ones.
