The future of Red Dwarf merch
Seb thats an AMAZING List.
Ben - an original Red Dwarf model with light bulb In It’s ass would be - I think we all agree - the most wanted item In Dwarf history.
I’ve got the Skutter that came with the series VIII DVD, but I’ve never actually opened it. I’d like a skutter I can pway with, as well.
I would pay really good money for a GOOD Red Dwarf physical model, and a life sized remote controlled Skutter.
A cheaper version of the Starbug playset and an RC Skutter please.

Oh, I’ve got one of them. I want a full size jobby.
Red Dwarf Snowglobe.
Talking Toaster
Singing Tie Pins
Buyable versions of Lister’s Leather jackets.
Artificial Gold fish.
Actually this is just a wish list of stuff I wish was real…
Decent replicas of Lister’s tshirts (London Jets, Mugs Murphy etc.).
New calendars supplied by the man.
#dwarffacts I was approached to pitch a Red Dwarf Calendar that ended up falling through.
(That is actually true, btw)
Krytie TV Starter Kit. Includes an eyeball camera, an Ethics Bypass Processor, and fake beard.

And a box of antiemetics to allow one to utter shit like ‘You’ve been Krytered’ without vomiting.

A calender designed by Danny and P2P would be made of WIN!
Seeing as I’m getting married next year some Starbug cufflinks would go down a treat.
Put my name down for a skutter too and an reproduction of Rimmer’s uniform badge.

Yes, yes, yes.
Ooh, a life-size Skutter? That’s be marvellous.
The new job is great, by the way. You should see the stuff surrounding my desk.

My new job (Yes, I know! Go me!) is working for a high-end collectibles and memorabilia company here in the US called Quantum Mechanix. I went into work today for a couple of hours to chat with my new boss, and being huge geeks the subject of Red Dwarf came up. Naturally it got me thinking about the potential for brand-new Red Dwarf merch.
I’m not talking about talking keyrings or reprints of old tee-shirts. I’m talking brand-spanking new merch. Figurines, models, maquettes, that sort of thing. Something a little more high-end. One of the things QMx makes is a film-quality model of the refit Enterprise circa The Motion Picture - wouldn’t it be great (if incredibly unlikely) to see something like that become available?
I don’t think QMx are likely to go after the license - they’re an American company, and I reckon the market for, say, a large Red Dwarf model or a range of statuettes is probably very, very small - but assuming somebody UK-bound picks up the license, what sort of thing would you guys like to see?
