Merch Announcement!
Added 2020-09-07 17:02:30 +0000 UTCThe title says it all here, this Casey sticker is our first piece of physical TRW merchandise!
For years I've been wanting to set up a physical merch store, but found I only ever had the choice between two evils: either sign up with a print on demand service, where they take 90% of what I'd make and I'd have to charge $30 for a mouse pad to see any tangible profit from it, or I could print and ship the product myself, which requires space and, more to the point, time, that I have never had so far.
But that changed when we hit our last stretch goal! Thanks to your support, Kal has been able to slowly scale back on his day job and focus more on working with me to expand the world of TRW. He found us a guy in England with the printing equipment we need who's willing to work for hire, so we're off and running.
Though we're not ready to roll these out just yet, as there are still a few details to sort. Such as how we'll go about setting up a storefront to take orders, and how we'll go about taking payments....okay, maybe those are pretty big details. But we've got a means to produce and someone to handle shipping, and those feel like big steps.
So the question I'm asking today is: how interested are you guys in this kind of thing? Would you be inclined to buy a sticker with your favorite TRW character on it? Or would you be more interested in something like a mouse pad, pin, coffee mug or poster print? In addition to using my own OC's, I plan on doing some fan art stickers as well. (They don't come after you for selling those unless you sell like a zillion copies as I understand it.)
So at this early stage, feedback is crucial. if you have any opinions or input at all, we'd love to hear it in the comments.

Hey sorry I somehow missed this one. That's definitely something I'd like to do someday!

2020-11-08 21:25:21 +0000 UTCThe art belongs on a plane, its time to bring back the age old tradition of nose art

2020-09-17 20:06:25 +0000 UTCWould love to see that pose on a literal bombshell, like DC Bombshells, but Casey!

2020-09-10 23:40:27 +0000 UTCAll of them, but i'd really like physical copies of Switch or TRW. That would ve A W E S O M E

2020-09-10 23:26:31 +0000 UTCDoing 3D mousepads may be above our capacity this early on anyway. If we do them in the future, we'd certainly offer flat variations as well.
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:47:45 +0000 UTCNice! :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:46:39 +0000 UTCWorking on it! :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:46:33 +0000 UTCWho? :O
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:46:23 +0000 UTCGreat! :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:46:12 +0000 UTCNoted! :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:46:06 +0000 UTCWorth looking into for sure!
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:46:00 +0000 UTCYeah we might be able to do magnets in the future! :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:45:44 +0000 UTCRight on. :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:45:28 +0000 UTCCool! Thanks for sharing! :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:45:21 +0000 UTCGreat! :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:45:01 +0000 UTCGood to hear! Those are in the works. :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:44:50 +0000 UTCgreat! Good to know! :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:44:33 +0000 UTCCool! Prints are certainly on the table.
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:44:12 +0000 UTCGreat!
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:43:59 +0000 UTCI hear you, but with Courtney in particular, her breasts are so impossibly huge I'm not sure there's any outfit I could put her in that would be ok for kids to see. XD
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:43:52 +0000 UTC:D
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:42:58 +0000 UTCAwesome! :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:41:36 +0000 UTCWould love to do a physical book in the future someday if possible. It would be a lot of work, as I've never been bothered to properly format and size the pages to industry standards. But it's not impossible.
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:41:21 +0000 UTCAwesome! :)
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:17:06 +0000 UTCWell all of them would at least have to be on the sexy side. I'm not about to try an sell a sticker or Bria wearing several layers of heavy coats, but I get what you mean.
Reinbach
2020-09-10 22:16:54 +0000 UTCBoob mouse pad for the win! That Casey sticker looks great and I'd be interested in a few of the other girls getting stickers of their own. Posters would be awesome and maybe blank or lined notebooks with one or a group of girls on the front would be sweet as well.
WarSapphire
2020-09-09 08:41:08 +0000 UTCDefinitely would get some stickers:)
RenegadePhantom
2020-09-08 21:28:01 +0000 UTCStickers and maybe magnets (foils). My fridge needs to look hotter. :)
eF..cz
2020-09-08 17:08:41 +0000 UTCI might be wrong about this, but I think I saw from other creators, that mugs require a prohibitively huge order to be profitable. Hope I'm wrong, as it'd be neat.
Ally
2020-09-08 09:36:50 +0000 UTCCoasters. They'd be cool.
Lord of Nightmares
2020-09-08 01:28:37 +0000 UTCDefinitely will buy
LordRion
2020-09-07 23:08:55 +0000 UTCMan, I know who I'd want a sticker of!
MechaBlerd
2020-09-07 22:42:28 +0000 UTCPoster please
simpleguyy
2020-09-07 22:14:08 +0000 UTC"dripping" text box stickers
That black guy
2020-09-07 21:40:37 +0000 UTCNovelty mugs are some of my favorite pieces in my house, so I'd definitely be excited about a mug! Stickers I could see getting a few of, but I've never been a major stickerer. I would definitely be happy to see any of the characters in 2D, chilling on the side of my PC case though. If my employment and income changes enough, I could definitely see getting a mousepad or a playmat for playing cards or sorting things (like an Ultrapro or Inked-style MTG playmat). I have an important caveat about mousepads though: I have nothing personally against mousepads that have the ergonomic wrist rest shaped like a woman's boobs or ass, but I know that I would definitely not buy one because it doesn't fit my aesthetic at all.
Emmett
2020-09-07 21:34:15 +0000 UTCI love the sticker! Although if you had mugs or pins I would be more inclined to do those
SarcasticWanderer
2020-09-07 19:55:56 +0000 UTCI would probably buy one everything you make. I’m most interested in a physical book, a collection of the comics. I already have a bookshelf full of hentai tankoubon, but I would love to add some of your works to that collection.
Escafreya
2020-09-07 19:22:21 +0000 UTCThat casey sticker would look great in my room tho. Even a poster of that would be nice
Blueno
2020-09-07 19:19:29 +0000 UTCI’d be down for stickers and prints
2020-09-07 19:15:27 +0000 UTCOne last thing: I'd be happy to buy anything with Courtney on it if she's more or less modest.
Doorknob22
2020-09-07 19:08:19 +0000 UTCIt's problematic. It's one thing to pay for high quality porn for myself but flaunting it could problematic. That Casey in your (?) hand, for example, is way too exposed for me to put anywhere public. I have kids, employees, etc. IMO if you want it to succeed you have to offer more modest versions. Something your followers will recognize but won't be to questionable to display openly.
Doorknob22
2020-09-07 19:06:40 +0000 UTCIt is great but no matter where someone lives I'm going to do my best to keep the shipping costs as low as possible.
kaldonis
2020-09-07 19:02:38 +0000 UTCThe stickers my contact can make, will be able to be hand washed. But I would much prefer to be able to have a true mug that wont have the image ruined by a dishwasher or repeated washings. Seems I have to look into mouse pads a lot more too XD
kaldonis
2020-09-07 19:01:35 +0000 UTCI'm sure lewd and non-lewd will be an option but if we want to use paypal as a payment method we have to be very careful in what we are selling. I'll have more details as soon as I can for everyone.
kaldonis
2020-09-07 18:59:16 +0000 UTCOoooo where’d I put that?
Lord Washington
2020-09-07 18:58:47 +0000 UTCI'm going to be handling all the shipping while the merch is in its infancy and I will endeavour to keep the shipping costs as low as possible. Nothing gets on my nerves more than paying for something then having to pay shipping costs that almost equals the actual item. I'll have more details for everyone as soon as I can.
kaldonis
2020-09-07 18:56:43 +0000 UTCI would buy a 5 by 5 soft cover flipbook just for your stickers if the book had reins golem on it or something simple on it I think it would be perfect.
alex baker
2020-09-07 18:54:24 +0000 UTCpins and posters should be possible from my contact. I'm looking into the mousepads but need to find a place that doesn't require a minimum order of 100 units to keep the costs low.
kaldonis
2020-09-07 18:53:34 +0000 UTCHi Alex, I'm looking into various ways to produce more physical merch with my contact. These stickers about 5inchs in length and height so you'll need a pretty big book XD
kaldonis
2020-09-07 18:51:53 +0000 UTCI agree t-shirts would be cool, as long as the price is right, stickers as well.
Bob Fink
2020-09-07 17:48:12 +0000 UTCOh a physical copies of the comics too...
John D'Alessandro
2020-09-07 17:45:08 +0000 UTCI'd buy stickers, t-shirts, mugs, posters, stuff like that !! It all sounds great!
John D'Alessandro
2020-09-07 17:44:48 +0000 UTCI would like to get some of everything, and since I live in Europe a printer from England is also a nice addition
Andreas Böttcher
2020-09-07 17:44:23 +0000 UTCAlso to answer the question i would get some stickers. Maybe like a sticker pack with popular characters on them
Jeremy Joanes
2020-09-07 17:39:23 +0000 UTCMousepad, physical copy of the comics, t-shirt and maybe a mug I would buy if I liked the design. Stickers? not so much unless it tickled my humour a lot. I guess I could stick it on a plain mug and hope it lasts?
Sanctusmorti
2020-09-07 17:30:15 +0000 UTCSpeaking off merch do you think you might collect the comic into a physical edition?
Jeremy Joanes
2020-09-07 17:27:02 +0000 UTCI don't have much use for stickers, but I've been in the market for a decent slutty mouse pad for years, now. I also drink coffee, so mugs are a great idea, too. Also, as someone else mentioned "lewd" and "non-lewd" versions of your products would be fantastic, as well.
Squid Hills
2020-09-07 17:17:37 +0000 UTCStickers, mouse pad, pins, everything. I'd buy it all.
KainRezo072
2020-09-07 17:11:39 +0000 UTCI'd buy stickers, keychain or tshirt but under the condition that European shipping won't cost me an arm or a leg. That has unfortunately pretty much been my only problem with merch from American creators
Weber Jo
2020-09-07 17:10:17 +0000 UTCSo anything relatively unobtrusive in the sense of lewdness would be super great in terms of merch. I cant personally buy physical items and hope to use them regularly unless they're stealthy
dattzaph
2020-09-07 17:10:09 +0000 UTCAlthough I don't personally use stickers or anything like that I would absolutely buy a mousepad, pins, mugs, or poster prints. Especially if there were lewd and non lewd varieties of those items. That sort of thing has always interested me.
Snizzlefit
2020-09-07 17:08:30 +0000 UTCI would love to collect your stickers if you also offered a sticker book to go with it. I still holding out hope for a physical copy of switch and TRW when it's finished. I happily buy a poster.
