On the heels of our last batch of randomness, here’s some more stuff cluttering the place up that I thought people might get kick out of:

A “threadless”-style Bionic Commando tee that features our hero doing what he loves best–leaping from a tall building. Probably he’s about to dramatically grapple his way to somewhere awesome (or perhaps the disappointments of his post-apocalyptic lifestyle have finally caught up with him and these are his last moments).

Totally sweet Saturday Night Slammasters water bottle. It may have been bad 90s music addling my brain, but I thought Slammasters was really fun. Later in life I had a chance to play against the guys that won the US national Slammasters championships (yes, Capcom had a national tournament for Slammasters, for no readily apparent reason). They squished me like a bug, but I can still enjoy this water bottle.

Capcom Fighting Jam fan. The Japanese text and the fact that the western market doesn’t seem as into fanning themselves generally (it’s called air-conditioning technology, and the rest of the world should look into it) suggests this was a Capcom Japan promo item only.

My trusty Capcom mug. Usually filled with our special blend of grade-D Capcom Coffee, the mug today contains Harvey Birdman, who has his own, tinier coffee mug.

And, to end on a substantially more baffling note, we have a what appears to be a Mega Man radio. When the promo product’s initial design was deemed “awesome, but not awesome enough” by our exacting Marketing department, the developer went back to the drawing board and produced exactly the same item, only this time with suction-cup feet. And the rest, my friends, is history.
