Merch?

A random post because I'm procrastinating but still trying to be productive at the same time so I'm typing this out on the toilet (lol sorry for being the queen of tmi).

I guess MPL merch is kind of a thing, by now (for those who aren't aware, I have a redbubble store), and thank you all for supporting and buying stuff from the store ❤️❤️ What y'all might not know is that my goal for putting out merch was never to make a profit, but to let y'all get your hands on MPL merch because I know many of you guys enjoy it - and if you're happy, then I'm happy too. And I'm not very pleased with Redbubble mainly because the base pricing seems pretty high (to me, anyway), so I've been wanting to find a more affordable alternative for you guys for the longest time. Because I'm not an e-commerce/online store person, and because I already have my hands full with comic production, my merch process is a very basic one where the merch designs are mostly artwork from the MPL episodes. But I WAS a graphic/web designer by trade afterall, and there's really no excuses not to design my own merch when I've been doing this professionally (albeit for others and never myself) all my life, lol. So creating proper designs for MPL merch has been one of the bigger things on my to-do list for the longest time. I'd really love to do cute chibi MPL designs with rainbows and stars and shit, slogan designs, prints, and stuff like that, but I don't wanna pour time and effort into creating merch designs that end up not taking off.

So this is just my attempt to procrastinate productively by asking what y'all wanna see from any potential merch revamps in the near future (I know at least a couple of us would die before plastering a giant panel of Tora's face (or any other cartoon character for that matter) on ourselves 🤣). And if anyone has Print-On-Demand recommendations other than Redbubble for me, let me know!
