I will soon have my hands on an apparently rare piece of Randall merchandise- some kind of toy, that a friend of mine bought whilst on holiday in holland. The next time I see her, I'll be able to take a picture of it and scan it in. I'm so excited- this is my first official piece of Randall merchandise! ;D

Is this a newly-released piece, or something "left over"(I hate to put it that way, but couldn't think of any other way to state it)from when the movie was released? If it's new, it means that Disney is still making and releasing Randall merchandise after all, instead of just the occasional Sulley, Mike or Boo items. Trouble is, Disney often releases different items in different countries, so it probably won't be available except in Contenental Europe. Let us know what it is, and maybe I can be on the lookout for it here, IF it is a new release.

I really don't know- I haven't even seen it yet, but from what my friend said she was told, it's really very rare.

Well practically ALL Randall merchandise is rare wouldn't you think? Where's your friend hail from?

Hail? You mean live? In Oxford, though, as I said, she bought the toy whilst in Holland. ;D And by rare, I mean like a collector's item, though it is true what you said, Sean- pretty much all Randall merchanidise is rare. ;D

I don't even know if it's a soft toy or hard or what- just that it's quite small and it's a collector's.

I'll bet it's one of those talking Randall tag-along/joke books like the one I have. I really wish I'd bought more than one of those things when I had the chance. It's really the only Randall-related piece of merchandise that DOESN'T make him out to be "evil" or "mean", but puts the onus of blame right where it belongs-on Henry J. Waternoose!

Sounds cool ;D
Speakin' of merchandise- there's this put-together plastic toy of Ran they have on Ebay ... maybe I can get it sometime ...
And my mom bought me this Randall pin offline ... One of the Disney pins. I'm a villains collector ... but she got me that and Lumiere, Babette, and Cogsworth ;D
Funny thing is that the Randall pins in Disney world are all sold out, but there's always pins of Boo and the stupid-duo ^^ Makes you wonder ...

That's because they are still making pins with Boo and "the stupid duo"(good call!), but not of Randall. Disney never did really have a lot of smarts when it comes to picking which characters will be popular and sell well. It took FOREVER for them to really put out any Stitch merchandise, especially for adults, and compared to what's available in Japan, even that is very limited in North America and Europe. They really missed the boat when it came to Randall merchandise, though. I mean, who'd a thought that this big, bad REPTILIAN "villain" would EVER be popular, huh? pitbulllady

I would get something related to Randall, but sadly, my parents don't like me ordering online and the stores here have CRAP. NOT EVEN A SINGLE DIGIMON FIG- *gets slapped in the head* OW!!.....ok ok....but still. They'll sale pokemon crap, but not digimon stuff? Fufufufu....and No randall either..... That's cool though. I can't wait to see it!

Okay, I've got more info- Randall's in the pose we see in most ads; upper hands together, grinning, y'know. It might take a while for me to get it, because the person who bought it for me I only know over a forum. She's also the cousin of one of my friends, so the next time they see each other, she'll give it to her. Meanwhile, I'm gonna scan in the pictures I've taken of the Randall toy I made, which should be developed by Wednesday, along with some pictures of my cat. ;D
