Merch Announcement! (Patreon)

The title says it all here, this Casey sticker is our first piece of physical TRW merchandise!
For years I've been wanting to set up a physical merch store, but found I only ever had the choice between two evils: either sign up with a print on demand service, where they take 90% of what I'd make and I'd have to charge $30 for a mouse pad to see any tangible profit from it, or I could print and ship the product myself, which requires space and, more to the point, time, that I have never had so far.
But that changed when we hit our last stretch goal! Thanks to your support, Kal has been able to slowly scale back on his day job and focus more on working with me to expand the world of TRW. He found us a guy in England with the printing equipment we need who's willing to work for hire, so we're off and running.
Though we're not ready to roll these out just yet, as there are still a few details to sort. Such as how we'll go about setting up a storefront to take orders, and how we'll go about taking payments....okay, maybe those are pretty big details. But we've got a means to produce and someone to handle shipping, and those feel like big steps.
So the question I'm asking today is: how interested are you guys in this kind of thing? Would you be inclined to buy a sticker with your favorite TRW character on it? Or would you be more interested in something like a mouse pad, pin, coffee mug or poster print? In addition to using my own OC's, I plan on doing some fan art stickers as well. (They don't come after you for selling those unless you sell like a zillion copies as I understand it.)
So at this early stage, feedback is crucial. if you have any opinions or input at all, we'd love to hear it in the comments.
