In a spontaneous outpouring of appreciation, we’re introducing some of our favorite officially licensed Gremlins™ goods. Available in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products through our Gremlins store, this high-quality merchandise is now spreading across our customer base like the anarchic green creatures themselves!
If, like a certain inventor, you believe in “fantastic ideas for a fantastic world,” then you’re about to witness something special. These are our top 10 picks to celebrate Halloween or Christmas with the help of Gizmo, Stripe, and an assortment of other characters from the 1984 and 1990 movies. Just please remember the three rules. Okay?
Trucker Hats
Trucker hats are cool, breathable pieces of headwear, ideal for when you’re listening to Rockin’ Ricky Rialto on the drive to Dorry’s Tavern. While they’re probably too big for a Mogwai to wear, you’ll be pleased with our Gremlins trucker hats, which are casual, colorful, and can even shield you from the sun. If you’re of the “nocturnal persuasion,” that is (the first of the three rules is that Gremlins and Mogwai can’t tolerate bright lights).
Shower Curtains
The second of Mr. Wing’s rules is never to get a Mogwai or Gremlin wet: water causes them to multiply, spawning enough malevolent monsters to take over your nearest movie theater or TV network. Another good practice – though unrelated to Gremlin care – is to make sure the bathroom stays dry while you’re in the shower. Consider a Gremlin-themed shower curtain to be your newest Bathroom Buddy, thereby preventing any ill-advised leaks, sprays, or spills.
Wallets
Even if slim card holders are becoming increasingly popular, you can’t beat an old-school wallet. Not only does a wallet conveniently store your cards, change, and keepsakes, but it makes a stylish fashion accessory. The fanged, batlike visage of Stripe on our Gremlins wallets is bound to keep your cash safe, too!
Lunch Boxes
Remember those three rules we mentioned earlier? Well, the most crucial of these is the third: don’t feed a Mogwai after midnight, as that late-night snack will cause him to mutate into a fully fledged Gremlin. Lunch, on the other hand – and particularly when stored in our Gremlins lunch boxes – is no problem at all. Pack everything up in these stainless steel containers and personalize it with your details!
Hoodies and Sweatshirts
Whether it’s a wedding dress, a seedy trench coat, or even 1980s-style leg-warmers, Gremlins have been known to wear clothes on occasion. Perhaps they’d even consider wearing one of our Gremlin-themed hoodies, available in a variety of styles, sizes, and themes. But even if Stripe and Greta wouldn’t deign to order these sweatshirts, you still can, and sport a custom design.
Tote Bags
Ever wanted to transport a stuffed Mogwai from one place to another? Or to carry all of your Gremlin-slaying equipment in one handy accessory? Then a reusable grocery bag could be just what you need! These Gremlins tote bags are far more sustainable than single-use carrier bags, too, even if we doubt that the creatures themselves are known for their eco-friendliness.
Laptop Sleeves
Gremlins typically display a propensity for disrupting gadgets and machinery – they’re often to blame if your air conditioner goes on the fritz, and they used to cause video recorders to conk out, too. At the very least, then, protect your own tech with our Gremlins-themed laptop sleeves. They’re lightweight to carry and are even water-resistant, which could come in handy.
Stickers and Labels
Gremlins and Mogwai alike have a big appetite for American pop culture, whether they’re dressing up as characters, watching TV, or heading to the movie theater. If you, in turn, want to declare yourself a fan of the franchise – to break the fourth wall for a moment – then how about some of our Gremlins stickers? They’re perfect for decorating notebooks, laptops, water bottles, and envelopes.
Table Lamps
While it’s bad form to expose a Mogwai to bright light, we heartily recommend that you give a Gremlin as much light and sunshine as you can, to prevent them from invading your home or place of work. These Gremlins-themed table lamps make a gorgeous piece of home décor, too.
Glasses
Glassware probably won’t appeal to most Gremlins with an appetite for destruction. With that said, a glass with Gremlins on it is far less dangerous. Choose a glass or tumbler bearing your favorite character or catchphrase, and enjoy an evening sipping a choice beverage.
Well, that’s the story. The Gremlins may be unpredictable and chaotic, but you can rely on Zazzle to deliver branded merchandise without any mishaps.
