!  TOYS  - Plushes created by Neca in two versions (8 and 12 inches). Five plushes are available : Arthur, Zaphod, Marvin, Trillian, Ford. Between 12-20 euros or 15-30 dollars. They are not very easy to find anymore. The 12 inches versions are quite rare. The Marvin plush is very sought after.  - 7 inches action figures made by Neca : Zaphod, Arthur, Marvin, Kwaltz and Jenz. Between 10 and 15 euros/dollars each. There are two versions of the Zaphod figure. One with one head, and a rare one with two heads. The quality of these action figures is average. Kwaltz and Jenz are great. Arthur looks constipated, and Zapod is just a little better. Marvin's acton figure is ok (but the best version is obviously the 10 inches one).  - 3 inches action figures. Two figures per pack. Three different packs. Arthur/Marvin, Zaphod/Jeltz, Kwaltz/Marvin. Neca. Betwen 5 and 9 euros/dollars per pack.  - 10 inches Marvin with green light up eyes. A great item. Neca. Between 15 and 20 euros/dollars.  - Marvin head knocker (Neca). 15 euros.  - Marvin's gun (Neca). This toy can send some rubber darts and make some noise. Funny but fragile and very noisy. 20 euros. REPLICAS  - Replica version of Marvin's gun (Neca. 60 euros/dollars)  - Replica of Zaphod's gun (Neca). 60 euros/dollars.  - The Hitchhiker’s survival kit (Neca). Great pack including a towel, a babel fish and an electronic thumb (50 euros/dollars). But, despite the fact that it was officially announced by Neca, it was never released.  - The Point of View Gun. Replica created in 250 pieces by Neca. Between 150 and 200 euros/ dollars. Quite difficult to find even if it was not a best seller.  - Vogon objects replicas : the pen, the mug and the stappler. Made in hand paint resin. Limited to 1000 pieces each. Hand numbered and come with a certificate signed by filmmarkers Nick Goldsmith and Garth Jennings (50 euros/dollars each). OTHERS  - Several products have been released for the national premieres of the movie. We can find them on ebay sometimes. Towels are now avalaible from 30 euros. The Marvin key ring (above) is also sought after. You can also find some promotional postcards. - You can buy some H2G2 movie press kits from US, UK, France,... - The making of book. Great book written by executive producer Robbie Stamp & Paul Simpson. Lot of pics and infos about the movie. You can find this book on ebay or in bookshops. - Official promotional movie towels were released but most of them were rather poor (even the one made in UK). The only quality towel released for the movie was the one made in France (a huge blue & white towel with the french logo and the tittle of the movie). - The H2G2 movie soundtrack by Joby Talbot. Great. Hollywood/EMI. - Some other products are quite rare. When I went to the Science Museum during the H2G2 movie exhibition, I found some exclusive stuff I haven't seen anywhere else since : mugs, pencils, sugar mice, badges, t-shirt.... - You can find different T-shirts. But It's not very easy to say if they are genuine or not. Disney made some t-shirts available in their stores, there were also promotional t-shirts, and some more diffuclt special t-shirts (like the red one with the logo "Vote for Beeblebrox" or the grey one used by the people working at the H2G2 movie exhibition).... - The launching of the H2G2 movie DVD in UK and US was also the opportunity for new stuff : in England, WHSmith have offered an exclusive mug for everybody who bought the DVD, and in US there was a special plastic glass for Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters. SOME USEFUL PLACES ONLINE WHERE YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIND SOME OF THE STUFF :
