The worst Star Wars merchandise?
8 years ago
General
So ever since Disney bought Star Wars there hasn't been just a flood but rather a monsoon of Star Wars merchandise that has come to various outlets. It pains me to go into a Winn Dixie grocery store and seeing Star Wars merchandise... George Lucas never seemed THIS bad...
But beyond that here is the question, what is the WORST bit of Star Wars merchandise you have ever seen?
There's a few I have seen.
1: Various lines of Star Wars make up.
I think many make up brands have done this, just look it up as I can't find one singular glaring one, they are all pretty bad.
2: These next two come curtousy of WorldClassBullshitters on YouTube.
Star Wars money: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oal-P8Ys1tE <_< Wow, just wow. You are basically buying a high quality print, nothing more. It'd be different if this was like "credits" (the currency from the movies) but it's just paper money with pictures on them, bleh....
3 Massive R2-D2 PLASTIC figure.

The thing looks like a piece of garbage that you are paying $3,000 for, holy crap!
4: Now for what I consider to be possibly the worst I have ever seen. It may not be insanely expensive but it's one of the most pointless things to put Star Wars onto.

And on the official site to prove it exists:

Copy paper boxes and ream wrappers with Star Wars on them... Like the money above you are buying a print, but WHY COPY PAPER! When I saw this in a office products catalog I couldn't believe my eyes.
Now there is likely worse than this, and I would love to hear what you have seen that beats these four. =3 Also have fun giving Disney 65% of your ticket sales at the theaters as opposed to the 55% that is usually asked for. Wonder why drinks and popcorn costs so much at theaters? Look no further than that.

And yes, my lord all of those are shit. xwx
Yep, all four of the ones I showed off are pretty bad.
*insert overdone joke that it's still not as bad as the prequels here*
But it's this fake sort of Lego in the UK that made these horrible/ugly Star Wars sets, and the faces were absolutely hilarious on them, as well as disfigured.
All I can say is that they exist, hah.
But it's still hilarious to see people trying to make/sell them.
