What Kind Of Bands Merchandise That You Collect?

[LIDL 692]

I mostly collects CDs. I got some tour merch, such as tees and tote bags, and towels, and phamplets too. And that is it.

 

I would love for the bands to do more jewelleries and fragrances, but I guess that is not common for Japan?

 

While I know what Cheki is, I have never collected them. So that is the only merch item that I left out.

 

WBU?

anything i can get my hands on. 

i have cd, dvd, cheki, sticker, cheki file and shirts. 

[Total Saikou 735]

I buy mostly CDs and the occasional DVD but I do have a few official books/photo books in my collection as well. Though tapes make my collector parts tingle I'm too afraid of getting my hands on one because 1. I don't want to bother buying a good quality cassette player and 2. Fuck me sideways they can be expensive.

 

I plan on getting some band shirts and posters in the future to replace my western ones which feel outdated to me (except my Queen one, they're truly timeless). I especially need to tear down my ancient Drake poster (and maybe throw away my CD if it wasn't a +1 to the collection)  I would only buy cheki and flyers if I was there in person at the live event as a memento, though.

Basically anything that contains music - CDs, tapes, DVDs, VHSes etc. 

 

I occasionally buy T-shirts as well but I don't care at all about stuff like cheki, towels, etc.

It depends on the band, but my limit is somewhere before T-shirts, fragrances, and entire magazines.

Music supports apart  (CD, DVD, VHS etc.) and photobooks/pamphlets, I go crazy also for almost all you can put into a clear file (and that tells the band story) like flyers, postcards, bromides, trading cards etc.

I only like merch that I can put to use, so towels, tote bags and T-shirts if they have a cool design. 

[少女椿 343]

Mostly cds, but it's not a rule, because my bangya shopping routine is always be like "I NEED THIS" and it can be literally anything.

And yes, tote bags!

I envy you because I tryed it a few times, but every time I get caught in a memento-mori esistential horror and I never use them.
(the alternative would be to buy one for collection and one to wear/use, but I'm not too keen to use my money that way and fill my wardrobe of unused  VK stuff)

Just basically whatever wouldnt look embarrassing to wear in public but I will say one type of merch I wish vk bands would actually make is beanies lol

[nikuman 32]

Shirts and posters are my favorite tbh. I like stuff I can show off 😅 I think more bands should get into badges/pins/keychains because I love decorating my bags. Tap into that itabag market already, bandomen.

I mostly buy CDs, sometimes DVDs. Other than that i have few t-shirts i bought during concerts and some posters(never bought one though, the ones i have are from preorder bonuses). I also have a photobook verwelktes gedicht from the gazette but i only bought it for the CD with Kareuta, don’t really care about the photobook.

 

And my laptop has some band stickers that were bonuses  that came with CDs

I mostly tend to buy stupid merch pieces, or stuff that's small enough that would be easy to add to an outfit, like buttons, wristbands, and that sort of thing. Although I have a bad habit of buying pretty much anything from the bands I like, so that falls into the generic misc amounts of collectibles, such as cds, dvds, and that sorta thing. 

[monkeybanana4 1732]

I mostly tend to buy CDs, DVDs, and keychains/pins. At lives, I purchase chekis, pamphlets, and/or live-limited items for the memories. I also have a habit of getting posters since I like decorating the wall.

Posters are the death of me

[Komorebi 2193]

Mostly CDs, cheki, photobooks and jewlery-like items (D has a bunch). I didn't really care for T-shirts until JLK, I now buy pretty much everything since I love their designs.

Music, Live distribution while I'm there (especially for a smaller indie band)>DVDs>Clothing>Magazine>The rest and goodies. I would rather buy music, and there is always more music to buy
