 Those look pretty cool, too bad 9/10ths are women's clothes, and the few men's look a bit trash other than the dragon sweater.  I don't really want or need the & on the sleeve and can probably find better dragon shirts if I look around though.

 Battle Royale computer game.  I think those are starting to wane in popularity and that looks like a cash grab, of course so does all this crap that's not D&D itself.  I seem to remember TSR doing dumb shit like this before both downfalls.
 

meh, I am interested in neither, but I just find it interesting how WotC/Hasbro right now is trying to push the brand Dungeons and Dragons so badly. I think they are just signing up for any licensing deal they can find, and most of this stuff is stupid. The main generic fantasy aesthetic of DnD is just not interesting enough to really make this a viable lifestyle brand.
