The "Just Shut Up and Take My Money!" Merch Addict Award

[on:]

This award is for PEELers who have trouble getting out of their house because there is so much Futurama stuff clogging up the hallways. It’s for PEELers who trawl the internet for that special piece of memorabilia that some less dedicated person just asked Billy West to sign “to eBay” so they could sell it to you. It’s for PEELers who can’t stop looking at Futurama bobble heads in shops even though they already own ten of each character. It may also be for PEELers who just have a lot of merchandise, Futurama or otherwise, and whom we are all jealous of because we don’t have the money to support such habits. I know personally for me it’s difficult enough just to afford the electricity bill with my jacking on problem.

Now go ahead and use this thread to discuss PEELers who fit the profile of Merch Addict. DO IT. And then later maybe we can jack on together. Or you could email your 3 nominations to us at the PEELies email address.

Update: You can now start emailing your nominations! Please use the template provided and send it to the email address found in the linked thread.

ProfessorZoidy (who is quite the merch addict based on her posts in the Stockroom), MuchAdo (links us to every new product secondary sites have to offer), CitizenSnips (who's so hardcore they collect scripts!)...these are just a few great possible candidates for this category.

Your wife?

Nah, I'm just kidding.  Yes, futurefreak is pretty hardcore in the merch department, along with the folks the mentioned.  Also, apexxx and SolidSnake are pretty into the collectible thing.

Jabalong and TheAnvil can often be seen posting much info related to the merch as well.

Hey guys

Just a reminder that everyone should use this template when emailing in their nominations, as it makes it easier for us when tallying, and also if you don't want to nominate anybody for a category it helps us know that rather than you just forgot to nominate for that category.

Cheers!

There can be only one.

The polls this year have just shown me that apparently I have an addictive personality
