Bones Merchandise Makes its Presence Known in Vegas

Ahh, Vegas. The city of sin. The city of fun. The city of...Bones fans???

Well, kinda.

This week, the annual Promotional Products Association International (PPAI) expo is going on in Vegas and because we are promo product pros, we've got a team out there covering all the action. I'm currently still cubicle dwelling, but with the advances in technology like twitter and aim, I'm not missing any of the action. In fact, I've been providing twitter tech support to Sarah E and Jenn as they roam the trade show aisles. And they reward me by sending me pictures of things I'd love, like for example: the coolest custom tumbler I think I have ever seen in my life.

The custom 3D design of the skull protruding right above the Bones logo is definitely eye catching, which is the point of all things branded, now isn't it? I love following Michael Ausiello and all the TV critics on twitter and checking their twitpics to see what awesome custom merchandise they get sent, but when I get to see an awesome example of it done by my favorite show at an a trade show for my industry? Well, that's just gravy.

And now comes the most important question. I'm not going to ask who designed it (already know) and I'm not going to talk about price point (found that out too). I would like to know when it got created (if I had to hazard a guess, I'd say Season 2) and I'd love to know what these were used for (ie, event, press kits, ect) but truly there really is a more important question that needs to be addressed.

Where the heck do I get mine?!

Props to Sarah E and Jenn for keeping their eyes out and texting me that lovely picture last night. It truly made my evening. And big props to Hart Hanson and the merchandising team over at Fox for knowing that eye catching promotional products are just what you need to remind people of the awesomeness of the most dynamic duo since Batman and Robin.
