TKesseli Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 This reminds me of Friends, when Chandler and Monica agreed to make their own presents for their anniversary, and then they forgot they had to make it, and in the end they came up with crappy presents. Thats what these merchs are. Crappy!!!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themadcaplaughs Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 No beef with them celebrating an album anniversary with new merchandise like any other band on the planet, but this stuff just looks atrocious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billie Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) https://gnrmerch.com/products/30th-anniversary-use-your-illusion-yellow-longsleeve It's worse than a joke, it's unprofessional. There is no knock off shop in the slums of Eastern Europe or China that could do worse than that. The letters aren't even straight, and the most generic font. Disgusting yellow It's Hideous and absurd Edited September 17, 2021 by billie 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allwaystired Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 It's a 'hell no' from me. Do people still buy this sort of thing in sufficient numbers to make it worthwhile producing? The child labour sweatshops of Bangladesh must be buckling under the weight of GNR clothing by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillionsOfSpiders Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Fucking hell that is atrocious. The Illusions are my favourite GnR albums and they deserve so much better. Fuck off with this shite. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay.Of.Execution Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 @Fernando is a great example of the fact that you in can't buy good taste even if you have all the money in the world. Wtf are you thinking with these? You should be ashamed. 25 minutes ago, TKesseli said: This reminds me of Friends, when Chandler and Monica agreed to make their own presents for their anniversary, and then they forgot they had to make it, and in the end they came up with crappy presents.

jimisbatman Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 My nana used to say "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all". That also applies to merch, "if you can't take the time to design proper merch, don't put out anything at all". They could of re-released the tour shirt designs, which were sooooooooo cool. What is this, amateur hour 😂 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powderfinger Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 There’s more chance of me slimming back into the medium shirt I bought in 92 than there is of me buying a large one of these ugly shirts. That yellow one is manky.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That yellow one is manky.... You should post it if you still have it. I'd love to see how it's held up after 29 years. You'd have to actively try to have merch this bad. Seems like someone messed around in a design program for a few minutes and called it a day. I could celebrate the UYI anniversary all the same by going to Kohl's and getting a UYI shirt for 12 bucks.

RocketTess Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 They have much nicer stuff at EMP, where I usually buy my merch. Some of the shirts and hoodies are really 👌🏼. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draguns Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I would probably get the coffee cup and maybe the hat. Everything else seems blah. I'm kinda surprised that they didn't put more effort into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattleyCrue Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Nothing like any of the original UYI tour shirts but I ended up buying the hat, the tee, the long sleeve and the sweat shirt. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a lot of money for dreadful merch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
