I can't wait to get my hands on an Olaf doll! I hope it's Barbie-size... That would be SOOO cool! My Christmas wish list as of now looks like this: Movie tie-in editions of books 1-3 The Perilous Parlor ASOUE video game ASOUE dolls/plushies :)

Mr. Wonderful, is that the talking Count Olaf display that was discussed in the thread "The Dastardly Display"? How did you manage to get your hands on that? I'm still trying to get one!

dgrune, you are my idol!
How did I get the talking Count Olaf standee? Simple! I went to a book store, asked what they were doing with it once they were done, and then a few places said, "It's been spoken for" or "Auctioning it to charity", but a few said "Nothing planned for it. Would you like it?" And I nodded my head.
BTW, how do you get all this merchandise?

Mostly eBay. Last year Harper Collins sent me a Lemony Snicket Day Event Kit with the pins, book covers, etc. The puzzle, PP game, binder I got locally at Borders or B&N.
I'm really jealous of your Olaf standee! I've asked at several stores and they all said No or We'll see. I'm not about to spend what they're going for on eBay.

In my case, I have a very good friend who owns a bookstore, so she always sets one of each promo aside for me. The photo and the trading cards were obtained by a friend at the San Diego Comicon this year.

Is your bookstore friend going to give you the Olaf talking display?
I thought the 8-ball was kinda corny and not very useful, otherwise I would have gotten it. A friend of mine has one that I play around with sometimes.
I forgot, I also have a third t-shirt that I made just recently. It has the quote in my signature on a gray shirt. I keep meaning to take a photo of it and add to my list.
I also made my own Grim Grotto tissues.

I forgot about the tissues...I have a pack of those somewhere too. I'm not going to get the Olaf display. She's taking it. They only got one, and we're both big fans.

ATTENTION FANS SEEKING A TALKING COUNT OLAF STANDEE!!!!!!!!!
I HAVE PURCHASED TWO (2) COUNT OLAF STANDEES. I AM KEEPING ONE FOR MY COLLECTION OF ASOUE MERCHANDISE, BUT I AM WILLING TO SELL ONE, OR TRADE IT FOR OTHER MERCHANDISE. I PAID A REASONABLE PRICE FOR IT, CONSIDERING IT'S LIMITED, IT'S PROMOTIONAL, HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE, AND VERY SOUGHT AFTER. IF YOU HAVE PRICE OFFERS, OR OFFERS TO TRADE THINGS WITH ME, PLEASE PM ME WITH YOUR OFFER, OR PM ME AND ASK FOR MY EMAIL, BECAUSE WE CAN'T DO THAT KIND OF STUFF ON THE BOARDS.
