What is the Melvins merchandise "Holy Grail"?

[buddy holiday]

Bump.

One positive of being furloughed and/or choosing to stay home during COVID is finding stuff online that you might not have otherwise looked for. Making up for not being able to see Melvins on tour this year has been discovering some rare shit that might be thought of as Holy Grail material. First up: original 1993 Houdini test pressing:

Your Dale Crover action figure can sit in the cab. Dress him as a truck driver first.

Highlighters.    It's an old toy truck I've had since I was a little kid.  Found it along with some of those stickers from when they were giving them away at shows in 2004 or so.

Around 2016, some guy(maybe more?) took a 3d scan of the melvins, with the supposed intent of auctioning them/selling them(?) I don't think they ever went up for sale.

I'm really surprised with all the action figures of bands coming out that they haven't done something like that yet. Maybe with no touring that's something they will be doing next year haha. That company super 7 has done a ton of musicians in the vintage style action figures on cool cards. Hell I'd buy a Houdini one with the two headed dog. Make the card look like the cover of Houdini. I imagine there are rights involved in all of that. But hey, I'd also buy Melvins figures that look like army men too 😅
