I hope Ubisoft can sell "Everyday Items" with logos of their games (I'd really want to get some Driver stuff). Think about it, Driver: Parallel Lines the Lunchbox, Driver: Parallel Lines the Coloring Book, Driver: Parallel Lines the Breakfast Cereal, Driver: Parallel Lines the FLAME THROWER! (oh yeah, the kids will love that one!). But seriously, they should make mugs, shirts, pens, mousepads, etc with logos and/or pictures from the Driver series. They'll make a $#!+ load of money doing this, it'll help them out for sure. So what do you think? Is this a good idea? What everyday items would you buy from Ubisoft with the Driver logos on them?

For all those car nerds they could release special edition scale model cars of the game's cars and even make a figure set with T.K. in a shootout with the cops and call it "Game Moments"
With the new Driver, I'd like to see new merchandise, yes. But more than that, some major marketing of the new Driver game, much like a game like Assassin's Creed or GRAW gets.
-------------- Next Driver: Interior DASH view, Free Roam TAG MODE chases, Miles of Backroads, Intense Speed-Edge of your seat Action, MAJOR Crash Impacts, day/night cycle, tons of customizable options, lots of stunts, ON FOOT in FPS view/overthe shoulder RE4 style, sportbikes, more car camera views, "Drop a RAMP" Cheat, fun vehicle chases where THE CAR is the Weapon, not a gun...

Oh I see. It's like a parody of those "Precious Moments" figurines. Yeah, scale models of vehicles from D:PL would be great, as well as a figure set too. I'd collect 'em all!
They should have bobbleheads of the Driver characters with phrases (both "G" and "R" rated phrases). You can buy a Riley Martin bobblehead with either "G" or "R" rated phrases.
They should also sell the comic book from Driver 76. In Driver 76, all of the cutscenes are in an unfolding comic book. I'd like to have my own that I can read any time!

Kind of reminds me about that fmv where your planning the kidnap with Candy moving those figures.
I wonder if Ubisoft could get the models made by real model companies like Ertl, Mike's Train House (MTH), Lego, Hot Wheels, Matchbox, and others. You know, it's not like the Ubisoft headquaters has a model-making factory.

A late Happy Birthday, but better late than never =D
I just noticed the title of this thread and thought I'll point out this post Coyote made on Driver Madness. It includes almost all of the Merchandise created for the Driver Series.
Holy $#!+!!!!!!!!! I want to have all of that stuff. Where did all of that stuff come from, Drivermadness? Ebay? Because I want to have all of those Driver models, clothing, posters, etc (OK, maybe the real cars are out of my ball game). I must have them all!!!

HOLY FREAKING ****! I want all that stuff! Even better then an articulated bus, a flipped dump truck with its load spilled all over the road, a Lotus Elise, a flipped Jeep Cherokee and a Dodge Charger Police car all put together! Yes I have seen all of those. No not on the same day.
The real D:PL train? The only train in D:PL was a New York City Subway (from the 70s, and still runs today). But it would be cool if some NYC subways and buses had D:PL ads on them. I remember seeing GTA:SA ads on NYC buses back in 2004 (when GTA:SA was a popular title).
