Max Stuffed Doll...please?

edited April 2007 in Sam & Max
Hokay.

I love this game. How much? I bought the whole season for myself and held a contest on my webcomic website and gave away the first episode to a total stranger for free.

I'm about to go to the shop and buy a girly T shirt for myself. I already bought the sketchbook. Frankly, Telltale did such a great job on this game series I will probably buy anything I can more than once and I'm also going to buy other games.

What I really want to see... is a Max stuffed doll! Please. Please. Make some. Sell them to me. I'll beg. I will buy it. Probably more than one. A Sam doll would be awesome, too. I would also buy him. I would bet any money that a Max doll would sell out in record time.

Also, if the DeSoto T Shirt were made in girl's size, that would enable me to also purchase that. A girl's version of that would be great, too. :)

    Yus!

    I am indeed not male in any way, shape, or form, and I am probably one of the biggest Sam and Max fans ever to walk the earth. When I heard LucasArts canceled the first iteration of the second game, I went nuts and did a big explosion on my website that (I hope) helped more people write in and sign that petition - every once in a while my character will be seen dressed up as a psychotic bunny. (Which I think actually might be fun to do at a convention, but I digress.)

    Hey, the petition didn't work, but now we have this great game series to show for it! It's like for the first time ever, someone made a game that I find more awesome than my Mom's face even if she was giving me a candy bar. With her face of awesome. If she was awesome.

    IMO it ranks the title of "Best game EVAR". :D

    A Sam and/or Max plushie would be absolutely amazing. I would buy one, and I'm sure my sister would as well...

    I am, indeed, a girl as well!

    It is true that the entire world wants at least two Sam & Max action figures each per person (I want more like 50 for myself) so I don't know what's holding things up. :) Action figures and plush dolls come up about once every two marketing meetings, mostly because Emily seems to really want one. We haven't got any plans to make any at the moment though... :( Maybe someday...

    Well Mezco Toyz http://www.mezcotoyz.com/ makes South Park, Hellboy, Family Guy, Living Dead, etc action figures.. I think it would be great if they made a Sam & Max line.. Maybe Steve could hook it up via Mike Mignola? or maybe Telltale could do it.. either way something needs to be done!

    recent Steve Purcell quote:
    Peter Clausen: Sam & Max have already appeared in many media. Where do you still want them to leave their mark?

    Steve Purcell: Every year I talk about trying to do a toy. I love vinyl figures especially ones that are from some existing work. When I was a kid I loved the vinyl figures of Walt Kelly's Pogo characters. They were a premium given away with detergent or something but they are very similar to vinyl toys being done right now. They had a nice sculptural quality, very raw even. I once heard that they were actually sculpted by Kelly himself. I love ventriloquist dummies. My dream toy would be a 1:18 scale Desoto with Sam & Max figures driving it.

    I just wanted to add my voice to the chorus and say "Please, sir or madam as the case may be, make this item and allow me to purchase it from you for whatever price you deem reasonable."

    I realy like the idea of Sam & Max actionfigures or plushies and I don't think I will hesitate to buy them.
  • onezumionezumi

    Yeah, it's not expensive to have them made, either. I'm just a regular person with a regular income and I am having plushes made now and eventually vinyl dolls of my characters made. You can get a plush doll run made for less than the price of, say, a new iMac computer. I think if a person could save up to have it done....then it would be a bit easier for a company. *hopes*

    Yeah. Let's watch the flames together. I'll bring the marshmellows-covered ferrets!:D

    Seriously, I would love it if I got even a six-inch mini-plush of Max's head attatched to a key chain! Just as long as it doesn't end up in Hot Topic. Franchises I love seem to die rather quickly once they end up in there (Nightmare Before Christmas, Invader Zim, Muppets, Care Bears, etc.)

    That's because Hot Topic slaps franchise logos on any object large enough to hold them.... I mean, c'mon... who needs Nightmare Before Christmas cologne!?

    But yeah, I'd maim the elderly for Sam n' Max figures :D Preferably done by McFarlane, I like their detail.

    I vote for a life-size Max plush-doll... or... uhm... ok, action figures (or even better, just cool sculptures, that don't have those stupid cuts where the limbs are supposed to rotate).

    A 3-foot tall lagamorph sculpted out of even the cheapest of plastic would cost too much for most of us.

    ...but would make a nice addition to the offices of TTG.:D

    Since companies are starting to make action figures of comic book characters either owned by comic companies that isn't Marvel or DC or by the comic creator, we might see Sam and MAx figures in the figure-depending on how popular Sam and Max are.

    Recently, Shocker toys and ironically, Marvel Toys (formally known as Toybiz) are making comic book figures based off of Judge Dredd, Savage Dragon, mad man, Ripclaw, Conan, Scudd, etc.. I hope one of the companies(though I prefer Marvel Toys because shocker toys is a new company and their figures aren't as good as MArvels) to get the license to make Sam and Max figures. That would be cool. The marketing manager posts at some toy forum called fwooshnet.com(He posts or used to post at the Marvel section with the screenname Jessie) and Shocker toys has a myspace profile. You guys think it would be a good idea to bug---I mean ask these two companies to obtain the Sam and Max toy license?

    I can imagine if Marve Toys ever do a sam and max action figure, it would be a 2 pack like the conanvs wrarrl and body bags packs. Here are pics of Marvel Toy's indepedent comicbook toyline:

    A section dedicated to Marvel Toy's Jesse. This section is where a person puts a question and Jesse then responds:

    http://www.fwooshnet.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=36481

    After reading the rules on that section, guess we can't ask him to get the sam and max license. :( The rules are:
    Rule #1 Don't ask about specific characters and what the chances are of them being made. I won't answer character specific questions.

    Rule #2 Distribution is not a ToyBiz question, its a retailer question. Don't bother asking when and where or at what quantity product will arrive.

    Rule #3 Case pack ratios will not be discussed, don't bother asking.

    Rule #4 There are a lot of other questions that I cant answer so If you ask something and I don't Answer and you ask again w/ no response Chances are I cant get into the details, or even address it. So Sorry!

    Rule #5 This one is for all of you! Keep a light heart it's just toys!

    So, I guess I'm the only one who'd prefer a Sam doll *cough* over a Max one, eh? Although both of them as little figurines would be better.

    Something I always wanted as a kid (but can't remember if I ever asked for it specifically) was a Hot Wheels track (and a car or two)*. I always thought putting the car on there and watching it make those turns and do the loops was really cool (I watched far too many Sat a.m. cartoons). A Sam & Max Desoto with the figures and a track to run it on... <thumbs up>







    *I should add that I also wanted an Easy Bake Oven. I was a very open minded girl.

    Only if the figures feature the two using the car as a surfboard.

    I am also of the female variety and the thought of a Max cuddly toy (we do not call them 'plushies' over here, so I refuse to call it a 'plushie' now) makes me go 'Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw'. How cute would his ears be? Aw!!

    A plush Max would be fantastic. He shouldn't be too adorable though - keep him slightly unsettling :P

    Female as well!

    I remember when I was a little girl, all into the Hit the Road hype, and I molested one of my old bunny plushies so that my grandma could give it a Max mouth using her awesome sewing skills. Sadly, she had no idea what that looked like and ended up giving the bunny the same mouth it had before I'd gotten my hands on it. ... Yeah, that was a good waste of effort.

    But anyway, I'd love a Max plushie. Sam too, of course. But right now, I'm in a big Collectible Figurine fase, so I wouldn't say no to that either.

    To join in the fanboying and topic borrowing - not hijacking because it shall be given back - but I got curious, and went to Onezumi's webcomic. Comic 337 was awesome for many reasons - the references, the styling, the story and the eerie inclusion of my lucky number (37) into my first comic viewed!

    Keep up the awesome work Onezumi! :D

    *We now return you to the currently scheduled forum topic...*

    EDIT: How the hell did that many replies leap in front of me?! It must be a space-time hiccup...
    Son of EDIT: Okay, ending up as post #37 is just adding to the wierdness...

    Heh, I was musing on how often it was appearing, not saying a pattern was emerging. :cool:

    EDIT: Although, if you counted the spaces BETWEEN "Certifiable" to "Predictably" and "Predictably" to "Unpredictable", that's 37 characters in total. ;)

    You guys should hire someone to knit the dolls, then sell them at exorbitant prices, Double Fine style.
