In the not too distant future we'll hopefully be rolling out a new and improved Bungie.net store. What do you you think would make a cool Bungie product? What would compel you to cough up your hard earned benjamins to show off how cool you are while also contribuing to our World Domination Fund?

Please be realistic about this though... I'm MOSTLY interested in hearing ideas for cool clothing items like shirts, hoodies, hats, etc... While we all would love to have our own replica energy sword or an interactive USB Cortana hologram PC buddy (hey, that's not half bad..) it's not really within the scope of our little ole store.

Anything and everything to do with Bungie is fair game (almost) - Halo, Halo 2, 7th Column, Bungie.net, Marathon, etc... If you're a fan of Myth and Oni.. sorry, we no longer have the rights to those games so we can't sell related merchandise. Scratch the Surly Dwarf Bikini Briefs off your list.

Who knows, maybe your idea will evolve into something that actually makes it into the store and makes millions of people happy and allows us to afford getting toppings on our team pizzas!

I'm still waiting on those grunt plushies, y'know. ^_^

Although, after seeing their faces, I'm not so sure anymore...
Just make sure they have masks!

Damm, I had ideas for a "TRO SPK DOLL!!!". Oh well, I would love to have A Halo/Marathon poster. That would be sweetness.

Marathon hoodies! Have an all black hoodie, with the silver marathon infinity logo on the front. I would definitely spend my money on that!

Also, the marathon stickers from the Trilogy Box Set put into t-shirt or hat form would be totally badass.

Devil is Double is Deuce and Joker always trumps Deuce.

Shirts in fat guy sizes. Wide but not long.

That would help

And more Halo stickers and shirts

"Frog Blast the Vent Core!" on any type of clothing. And a little green SimulaBOB underneath.

Maybe some special prints of Bungie artwork. Some of Craig Mullins' famous Marathon scenes?

Copies of the halo story bible?? ;)

I'd buy a black shirt with the marathon logo on the back and "somewhere in the heavens... they are waiting." on the front.

Maybe you guys should release some marathon type loot to celebrate the 10th year of marathon goodness (someone said it was coming up soon).

Would it be possible to sell custom bungie/halo painted xbox controllers??

As said above, posters are always good too :)

I've tried, Jiminy! Oh how I've tried. My hand is a withered claw!

Then you're a -blam!-. And you'll get the -blam!- ending you deserve.

Black hooded sweatshirt.
The new Halo 2 logo on the front, top center, in ice-blue.
Down both sleeves from top to bottom in white lettering is a Bungie phrase. Coupla examples: Frog Blast the Ventcore. SoonTM. Don't Make Us Kick Your Ass.
Or, have a line of Forerunner symbols down each sleeve instead.
On the back, top-center, in ice-blue, is the symbol on the backs of the Spec-Ops Elites.

A T-shirt, with the words "Satisfy Your Grunty Thirst" in front, and, in back, a small concept art sketch of a Grunt sucking on a food nipple.

A black T-shirt with the words "Betcha can't stick it..." on the front and a sexy Cortana drawing on the back.

A T-shirt with the words "You were just..." on the front. On the back, "OWNED" in big letters. Below that, a Master Chief corpse humping a MC body.

A black T-shirt with, on the front, the words "Fight for Her" in top center. Below that, a scorched Earth, like the one in the first Halo 2 video. In back, top center, "11.9.04."

How about a simple shirt that says "Got Halo?" on it. Unless that is trademarked or anything like that.

Looking for free R&D now are we Sketch? Ah hell I'll bite. How about a shirt with GS343 on it and one of his irritating little quips? For instance his line about bringing such ineffective weapons. Or, "Ahhh, I am a genius." Anything he says if you shoot him repeatedly would be good. Or maybe the best transcription of the little melodies he hums. He's annoying - granted, but he's got some of the best lines in the whole game. I can't think of any of GS's one liners right now. And I really don't feel like ramping up the library to find out. It's dark right now. Help me out if you can.

Black Hoodie. 343 GS on the front. The words: Please stop being Human" on the back.
Sweetness.

bah

You just give me that Grunt plushie. Or a beanie baby Grunt. I will seriosly buy it. What is keeping you guys?

hmm

There are just so many quote shirt ideas that can be used (most from marathon). Has to be Black on Green or Grey, with quotes like:

"Frog blast the vent core!" -Bob

"I'm out of ammo!" -Bob

"See ya starside!" -Bob

"Eat vacuum, sucker." -Tycho

"Leave the thinking to those of us with planet-sized brains." -Tycho

"Still rampant." -Durandal

Or my personal favorite, a 2 sided quote shirt: (someone correct me because I'm paraphrasing)

1: Questions: "Why am I here? Why do I exist? What do I do now?"

2: Answers: "Cause you are, cause you do, and cause I got a shotgun and you aint got one."

(I know I couldn't think of the third question, but I love that quote so someone PLEASE tell me the full thing. Thanks)

Or possibly, a black one sided shirt that just says "Eat the path" would work for me ;)

I'm certifiable.

The black Marathon T sounds good to me, but I'm not certain about the silver. No, too monochrome... it's gotta be [color=00FF00]VDU green[/color]. (Or is that just Ego speaking? :) )

I'll vote for the (MASKED!) Grunt plushie.

HALO2 OST ALBUM! In SACD or dual-format CD/SACD, if possible. (You haven't truly heard Dark Side of the Moon until you've heard the SACD remix on a good rig. *Ahhhhh*) Audio DVD might be nice, but I understand it's even less popular a format than SACD. :(

343 Guilty Spark on a tie would work. Or a pen set, or something... I gotta pester my cubicle neighbours at work.

Branestormed out, and I think the boss actually wants me to work today. (Heathen!) Will ponder further.

grunt plushies would be cool. =)

And that Halo/Marathon poster would be cool. I would rather have a Marathon poster though. =)

How about the ceramic pants Matt put change in for the "Get into Bungie's Pants" contest? Or perhaps a copy of his hippo in my avatar?
