New merchandise Item # Brainstorm time#

[Kirsty2520]

I wanted t try and get something that everyone would use and be happy to recieve.
Hence why I thought of pens.

But keep the ideas coming

[wagonist]

forgot to mention I think the windscreen shade is a good idea too. Though whether you'd get them for the price is another thing. (It'd be easier to spot the other Toymodders out there though )

[deviant]

I reckon car window shades would be good, either the big foil ones or the smaller gauze ones.

They are '1 size fits all'
We all need them and use them
They will be good to identify all 'our' cars at shows, meets etc.
There is nothing to go wrong with them....a cheap tyre pressure gauge or torch might break after 2 uses and then the club will be stuck with a box of the bloody things and no-one will want them!
They will be cheap to post

As you say though finding a printer might be hard...

The best option in my opinion is the beanie.

Cheapest setup costs, most economical MOQs, and cheap - see the link i posted up above.

[deviant]

Yeah but anything that is my idea is better

[PlacentaJuan]

i have a hong kong factory tradeshow guide thing its about the size of a phonebook but has a million different things you can get printed up, heaps of cool gadgets as well, otherwise

Are those E-Z-2-C calendars cheap to have made? Maybe one with a collage of member's cars or sumfink.

is an awesome idea, dont know what you mean by an E-Z-2-C but a calendar with someones car for each month would be cool, and could be sold also.

also the tyre pressure gauge is a good idea but it would have to be a resonably good quality and accurate gauge or it wouldnt be worth it...

[Kirsty2520]

E-Z-2-C = Easy to see I think
at least thats what I read it as

[rob-ae86]

vote for the coffee mugs

Awww Don't be like that.
I am taking all idea's into consideration.
And hell what we Don't get this year we can always look at for next year

[The Witzl]

Jesse - only problem with all those asian places is the MOQ.
Unless you are talking 1000pcs+, they dont want to know about you.

I joke I joke

Would it be possible to get something like oil filler caps with the Toymods logo on them? Looking at the cars people drive on here than you would only really be looking at a small number of engine types to have most people covered....4AGE/ZE, 3SGE/GTE, 18R etc etc...

Floor mats might be worth looking at....I saw on another forum a group buy was held for people wanting floor mats with the 'screaming eagle' from the badge on the AW11 MR2 on it, I seem to remember they were black rubber with the eagle in red. They were a little pricey, around $65 for the pair BUT everyone snapped them up super fast. Obviously that price was a price to the end user and not a bulk price....I just cant remember the company that did it for them

[Kirsty2520]

thats WAY out of out price bracket at that price

[Lambolica]

Some of the thing I have come accross...
All are based on order of 250 and 100 respectively

$10.98 - 250....... $14.00 - 100 $75 setup cost (1 Off )


$2.39 - 250 ........$3.49 - 100 $75 setup cost (1 Off )


$11.84 - 250........$13.06 - 100 $75 setup cost.


$4.69 - 250.........$5.04 -100 $75 setup cost


$5.20 - 144........ $5.10 - 288 $75 setup cost


Cheers

pens are no good coz people always pinch em.

beanies no good coz it to damn hot where i live. cheap ones stretch out of shape easy.

schooner glasses good coz it to damn hot where i live so we drink a lot of beer.

windscreen visors good coz it to damn hot here.

coffee mugs good even though i dont drink coffee

mouse pads good coz i dont have one.

tyre gauges good coz i dont have one.

i'm not really fussed what it is though, maybe start a poll with the best ideas.

How bout boxer shorts for the lads and G-bangers for the ladies (and Y-fronts for the bogans)

[Bananaman]

I vote the sun protector as well

Failing that of all the suggestions so far that i'd actually *use* would be the lanyard, schooner glass, i'd wear a bucket hat but i'm tipping you wouldn't get a size big enough for my head (yes, its big, hehe). Cheap mouse pads with plastic surface suck to use imho. If it was the cloth surface variety i'd use it, i've had my current mouse pad for 11 years

On the note of the travel mug, i got mine the other day and was pumped to use it so i did the next day while driving to work - after i'd been driving for about 25min i noticed a strange warmth on my stomach, so i look down to find my white shirt had coffee all over it
