Here is a list of what I think is some of the best movie merchandise out there! Its clear that producers will make anything to try and make money off the back of a film so here's a collection of some of the most iconic and interesting pieces of merch I could find!
Fight Club - Soap
This novelty soap was up for grabs from firebox.com, its a real bar of soap with the fight club logo carved onto it but unfortunately it is no longer available from this website and I could not find it anywhere else on the internet! However I was lucky enough to buy a genuine fight club soap prop which was created for the film off of ebay. You never know when one of these might pop up so keep searching!
Inception - Spinning Top Totem
This iconic prop used in the film Inception is available from all over the internet, luckily for as little as £1.99. It shapes up to be a pretty neat replica considering how cheap it is! The golden chess piece totem is also available online however it is much harder to come by and Im not certain of the quality as some of the images online do not look much like the one in the film.
Kill Bill - Pussy Wagon Keyring
This recognisable key ring is from Quentin Tarantino's film 'Kill Bill', its available from BMFWallets.com and other sites across the internet. Im not sure if this is an official piece of merchandise as Tarantino films usually only have action figures made after the films release however this is still a cool, instantly recognisable key ring for any Kill Bill fan!
Also available is Zed's 'Z' keyring from Pulp Fiction.
Dark Knight Rises - Gotham City Rogues Football Kit
Under Armour designed the iconic yellow and black football kit for Christopher Nolan's latest film 'The Dark Knight Rises'. They designed the whole range from jerseys to varsity jackets! These went viral over the internet and a T-shirt could be bought for a a staggering $100 on sites like ebay. Under Armour are currently not stocking any Rogues merchandise at the moment but unofficial T-shirts are still available from across the internet.
V For Vendetta - Mask
The V mask is seen everywhere not only on the internet but all over the world during protest movements. The mask was originally adopted by an activist hacker group named 'Anonymous' in 2008 during a protest against scientology. The mask has now become a symbol of the movement against corporate greed and is globally recognisable even if you have not seen the film!

The Shining - Overlook Hotel Hat
In December last year Casual Connoisseur released a special edition 'weir' based on the carpet from the Overlook Hotel from Stanley Kubrick's 'The Shining'. A set of about 30 went on sale from their website for £27, with there immense popularity people began selling them on ebay for up to £150 ! If you are a fan of The Shining keep posted, as the Casual Connoisseur have said they are going to be selling another batch sometime this month.
Pulp Fiction - Bad Mother Fucker Wallet
This bad ass wallet from Tarantino's 'Pulp Fiction' is a great novelty item to own! Its just like the one in the film and is available for under £20 from BMFwallets.com. It also comes in 5 different styles including a red purse design for girls, a great purchase for any Tarantino fan.
Childs Play - Chucky Doll
This Living Dead Doll (Chucky from the film Childs Play film series) is a good buy for any horror movie nut ! It has an incredible likeness to the real doll in the films, whether thats a good or bad thing im not sure...
Skyfall - Royal Doulton Bulldog
This limited edition china bulldog was made by Royal Doulton for the latest James Bond film - SkyFall. The dog can be spotted on Ms desk and went on sale for £50 after the release of the film. The bulldog was so popular it sold out almost instantly!
