DT & Band Members’ Product Launches

[TheBarstoolWarrior]

I figured we could have a dedicated thread for the band and its members' product releases. It feels like we're getting more of them over the years so maybe it's a big enough topic to deserve its own thread. It probably doesn't make sense for new album releases or anything that's going to command a massive response but maybe for everything else including ancillary products.

Here are a couple very recent ones:

I thought we'll be getting Majesty pajamas. 

[Zydar]

Those headphones looks nice, too bad I got some new ones only a few months ago. I might have ordered them otherwise. Reasonable price too.

How are these headphones?  Are they wireless or wired?

it's just covers for their brand of headphones, you're not buying the full headphones for 40,- ;-)

Well damn! I thought they were suspiciously cheap  

[hefdaddy42]

The bundle comes with the covers and the actual headphones for $299.00.  I was asking about the headphones, if anyone knows.

You can easily desing whatever you like with AI or designer tool and print it.

I don't know how quality this thin plastic cover but whatever it is it's way too expensive. The thing is (I guess) to support the band. So it's your deal.

I don't know anyone who has Heavys but the reviews I've read on the internet were not bad.

Thanks!

I gather these claim to be designed to be ideal for listening to "heavy" music, rather than just be all-purpose good?

[DoctorAction]

As I don't buy CDs or vinyl anymore (I mean to get a record *music* player this year) I went looking for the DT online EU/UK merch store to contribute fiscally to the machine.

3 designs of t shirt, basic IAW, Awake and PS cover art. Each priced at £40 + £4.60 postage.

By comparison, Maiden's latest shirts on their official site are £35 or £30 but most are at £25.

I didn't buy.

You can't be serious.

Wow. You really are.

Wow. You really are.

I'm somewhat intrigued by how it smells 

I would have purchased the signature bourbon if it were more reasonably priced but I'll probably avoid the cologne for now.

[nobloodyname]

Much like the Metallica one, I'd have given it a go if it was available and sensibly priced in the UK. I can't imagine either were much good, honestly, but yeah, I'd have thrown them a bit of cash.

The cologne/EDT/perfume/aftershave, however, I just imagine it smells like JP's sweaty armpit after a show. Not a smell I'd personally fancy rocking. Now if it infused me with 27% of his guitar playing ability, that'd be a different story.

[hefdaddy42]

Haven't watched the video or tried the cologne (I don't use cologne), but I use JP's beard oil.  I like it a lot.
