Thank you for telling me about the merch. I too find They I Would Bleed For Lestat onesie tasteless.

You’re welcome!

Maybe that person was inspired by the part in book!IWTV, in which a young vampire (some kind of nurse?) brings a baby to Lestat as a victim but you can tell Lestat doesn’t want it: “‘You might have brought me something else!’ said Lestat bitterly.” (And he didn’t try to take it back when Louis takes the baby away.)

^Lestat @ being offered a baby for dinner & also us @ being offered that gross onesie.

(I think that younger vampire was just trying to bring him the easiest and most portable snack, and babies don’t fight back like dogs or cats do when they’re carried around by a stranger? IDK.)

I have a bunch of fanmade merch collected up in #the merch we deserve tag, if anything strikes you as smtg you want, you should buy it if you can, bc you never know when/if it might be taken down.

for the anon asking about merch: there actually were t shirts made for the iwtv film. I’ve seen a couple on etsy. they’re basically just the poster w/ the huge photo of Tom Cruise superimposed on it

[Follow up to this post] Oh for sure, there is an AVALANCHE of fanmade VC merch on Etsy and elsewhere online. AR probably doesn’t pursue it bc there’s just SO MUCH.

IDK about that movie!IWTV shirt you mentioned, whether that was official VC merch. It would be pretty easy to have such a shirt made.

Some of the fanmade merch is pretty good! Like this cute locket w/ the IWTV cover: (no longer for sale but it would probably be easy to find a similar one on Etsy)

Or you can get an adult replica of Claudia’s dress:

Some of it’s really horrendous tho… I find this really tasteless:

^Thankfully, looks like the link I had for that horrible onesie is broken, idk if it’s still for sale, but this was the price and other product options, too:
