Merchandising Seen in the Cartoon
Here's the scenario: Sideshow Bob, for years the speechless, ignored sidekick, finally gets his chance in the limelight. He is the centre of attention; adored, admired and finally interesting. People love him. Is it any wonder that he goes merchandise mad? I think not. Below is a list of all the merchandise that our hero dreamed up in his commercial frenzy, patiently gathered by our humble reporter (me).
Sideshow Bob Brandy Glasses
Sideshow Bob Keyrings
Sideshow Bob Pens
Sideshow Bob Snowdomes
Sideshow Bob Limited Edition Prints
Sideshow Bob Commemorative Coins
Sideshow Bob Collectors' Plates
Sideshow Bob Posters
Sideshow Bob's Breakfast Options (cereal; voted number ten in a Top Twelve list of the worst cereals of all time by one Bart Simpson)
I wouldn't know how to get hold of any of this stuff even if I knew how to get to Springfield, so don't ask. Knowing the citizens of Springfield, it probably all got burnt when they found out that Bob was a criminal.
