Welcome to the new and improved merchandising section!

Aardman characters are so colourful, so full of life, that they make the perfect gifts – or the perfect collectable for yourself. But what to buy when there’s so much out there? Well this section sets out on the mad task of reviewing all Aardman products – though this will take us a long time of course.

We have split this area up into sections to create a more understandable layout. At the bottom of this page is a complete ‘map’ of the Merchandise area.

Wallace and Gromit
Wallace and Gromit are over 20 years old now, and in that time there has been more merchandise released than you can shake a stick at. It’s understandable really though, they’re such fun to look at - who wouldn’t want them in their home?!

Because of the sheer volume of Wallace and Gromit items we have split them up into three sections – ‘1989-2006’, ‘Were-Rabbit’ and ‘2007 - 2010’. The ‘1989-2006’ and ‘Were-Rabbit’ sections hold reviews on items from those periods and will be added to over time. They may, or may not, eventually become databases of every product from those periods of time. These areas are developed with the help of a number of long-term collectors, and if you fall into that category and would also like to be involved then please get in touch!

The ‘2007 - 2010’ (which will become ‘2007-2011’ next year and so on) does, however, intend to be a complete database of products in those periods – with reviews of every piece wherever possible.

These sections will further be split up into ‘books’, ‘toys’, ‘comics’ etc. Some ranges have their own section, such as the Robert Harrop line of figurines.

Shaun the Sheep, Timmy Time, Morph and ‘Other Aardman Productions’
These sections are coming soon...

To allow the databases to be added to even when reviews can’t be written, we have developed a ‘traffic light’ system. Under each section of products (e.g. ‘books’ etc.) you will find a list of the items with traffic lights next to them. A green traffic light means ‘a review is written’, an orange one means ‘a review is coming’ and a red one means ‘we can’t review it (can you? Get in touch!)’

Some companies also have their own pages linking to all their merchandise too. There are also opportunities to add your own comments on different products and to rate them as well.

If this project seems exciting to you, and you want to get involved, please do drop me an email.

So keep checking back for merchandising madness!
