Valve's cool

With the store redesign all the old links are now broken. -- Nineaxis 02:42, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Links are now fixed! Valve is awesome! -- Brianfl1 7:41, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

New designs coming soon?

I was just on the forums in a thread, and a VALVe guy replied to a question of mine concerning new TF2 merch:

http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showpost.php?p=18984869&postcount=11

So, yeah, just a heads up. Feel free to put it in the article or something if this is worthy HuffCP 22:37, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Also, check out the rest of the thread. There is some coming up about some new GamingHeads statues. HuffCP 22:39, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. The new items will be added once they've been announced. -- En Ex _(talk) 23:07, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Encyclopedic?

Even though this is touted as official Team Fortress 2 merchandise, I don't really see where this article is encyclopedic; I am an inclusionist by nature, but even I think that this article smacks of advertising and doesn't really seem to me like it belongs.

The discontinued Soldier T-shirt

We need someone to find a picture of this shirt, I can't find a picture of it anywhere. They definitely exist because I own one, it's just changed from cream to white thanks to washing machines. Omnomnick 04:16, 19 July 2011 (PDT)

The discontinued Heavy T-shirt

Does anyone know if there is a place where it is still possible to buy the discontinued heavy tee? ViToos 11:44, 10 October 2011 (PDT)

I guess if you could still buy it, it wouldn't be discontinued. Sorry =(

Grenadier's Softcap - black

The merch page says the product doesn't exist, but I'm sure they used to have it there. Anyone confirm as the cap being discontinued? Tabs 09:23, 7 December 2011 (PST)

NECA figures

I notice that many figures of the classes are missing, such as the engineer and spy. Why can't you get them anymore? I see you can get the red spy and engineer from Amazon and such, but for some reason, no BLU versions are for sale, despite genuine hats for them claim they are only obtainable through buying them. Anybody have an explanation for this? Alcatrax (talk) 12:03, 2 January 2015 (PST)

Catalog update project? Or Delete List of merchandise section?

I was thinking of tagging at least the List of merchandise section for deletion (how out of date is this?). For one thing, I don't see a reason anymore to have anything here like a catalog, especially since a significant portion of the present listings are now discontinued and the current TF2 offerings is greatly expanded and frequently changing.

I find the gallery of Discontinued merchandise interesting, at least, but I would not want to see inclusion of every single discontinued item ever.

If the List of merchandise section is to be kept (not deleted), then there should be a project set up with at least guidance for what limited selection TF2 merchandise should be listed and a process for keeping it updated.

If there is no response here, then I may go ahead with the section delete tag. I would want to keep the article since there has been reason to refer to the Valve Store in the wiki. MIKADO282 oOOOOo oo oo 18:05, 21 April 2018 (UTC)

We should split the article into two groups: buyable, and unbuyable

The Fiend (talk) 15:34, 3 May 2021 (UTC) This is due to a lot of the items on here you get anymore, like the phone cases or most of the cups

Do the Funko POP vinyls belong here?

If you didn't know, there have been Heavy and Medic POP figures out for a while. I think they would belong here, but if so, what section would I put them in? I don't even know if they're discontinued, it's almost like they're in limbo. Bouncypear (talk) 15:13, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

Delete

Delete the List of Merchandise Section: (see also previous comments)

1. This section's content is much better provided by Valve's own store.
2. As demonstrated by the present content (all broken links, several prices out of date, discontinued products) attempting to duplicate Valve's catalog here is unmaintainable.

The links and prices of the List of Merchandise section could be deleted and the images merged with the Discontinued merchandise images (I am guessing that the much of the present listed merchandise is now discontinued). There is a HUGE amount of current TF2 merchandise in the Valve Store, but it would be no service to the wiki to add any of that to this page.

Complete Revamp

With the closure of the Valve store there is no longer any official merchandise of team fortress 2 for sale, should we consider completely renovating this page to show all merchandise valve created for team fortress 2 from 2007 up to the closure of the valve store? If so should we include all of the apparel as images as this could bloat the size of the page for little given information? Furthermore should we include the prices of the items? I'll try and gather some information for this page and I'll try and update it soon.

I think the price and "details" is unnecessary now that the store is shut down. I think the page looks fine as-is, just needs the merch history.
