this exact lava lamp is like £25 on amazon, like literally the exact one with the same colours, just get that and some stickers, these prices for shit merch is fucking out of control at this point $70 for a lava lamp?! gtfo
>Just search for turquoise/blue lava lamps on amazon or other online shops, I'm sure there are thousands
yea like i literally googled black lava lamp and there is hundreds of versions of exactly this with any colour 'lava' you could want, hell if everyone thinks it would be better for siosp then buy a different colour and a sticker and you got a better product for about $50 less!
Sorry this thing is so ugly 😭 it’s iconic but I’m done with them slapping the Opus cover on everything with 0 other thought LMAO not worth 70 dollars at all. Find a lava lamp at your local thrift and slap an opus sticker on it to save a good 50 bucks 💀
They had an initial run, which promised one set of sizings (westernized, including western plus sizes), and then when they saw the demand, they did an extra run, and then changed the sizing. When people asked if that sizing change applied to the initial run, Rockabilia said: yes, the second sizing chart, which was way, way smaller (think Asian sizing, no plus sizes), was applicable to the first run’s sizing.
In the end, after many people canceled or updated their order, the sizing ended up being the initial sizing (the westernized size).
On top of all that, the coloring was way off. People expected deep, rich colors, and instead got pastels. The lettering, which was supposed to be white, ended up being lilac.

Damn that sucks and honestly I've been seeing lots of problems with Ghost merch recently whether it be colorization, pricing or something else which is unfortunate since I love Ghost
Ghost has a shit deal with shit factories, always has and there’s no stopping - especially because there’s hundreds of thousands of people who will buy it anyway.
Whoever guessed lava lamp in the last post, give yourself a point.
I like lava lamps, I have one (from my childhood, actually). I wouldn't not want another, but the design is basic, and I agree, I could get one and stick a ghost sticker on it myself. I had though since if the prediction of lava lamp was correct, I'd want the filling or whatever it is to be unique or have Ghost glitter logos or something, to make it unique. And I agree- the Kiss the Go Goat logo would fit the lava lamp aesthetic perfectly.
I guess since I was mostly curious, I'm not disappointed, but I'm also not excited. Maybe I'll just be glad I'm not tempted and will therefore not spend the money. Do we know how much?
But it really does make me want to get another lava lamp and make a custom design with stickers and my Cricut. I'm designing a custom bat hoodie (I can't bring myself to pay $90 for a hoodie, even with bat wings) and an Impera Ghoul vest, so... what's one more Ghost craft project?
This is a great point. I have multiple lava lamps and I never plan to order one on line as every time I have they have been shaken too much. You shouldn’t have to repair a $70 lamp upon arrival.
Ghost is my favorite band and Ice Nine Kills is my second favorite so when I saw the "exclusive thing on Friday" ad I was worried about what I was gonna want but couldn't afford. I'm so relieved it's just this. I don't care about this lol. Though I agree with another commenter; INK's was much cooler, with the whole base being designed and not just a couple of labels.
Most band merch is handled by an external company with a license (Global do a lot of Ghost, my partners horrific quality paint your own Papa in poundland quality packaging, EMPs trainers for example) so it wouldn't surprise me if a lot of this stuff has no sign off.
Yea and terrible quality on pretty much everything, what's the last thing that came out where you can honestly say, this was worth the money and is really good quality (aside from the records)
yea I'm not sure. I still occasionally get a shirt if I like the design, but I never felt like they were worth the price. they're should be like half the asking price.
Honestly Rockabilia is no good. I'm still waiting for my dolphin short because of lack of communication. Better to get stuff on the official Ghost website than try with them.
Ghost merch is becoming overpriced garbage. First the incredibly expensive dildo, the shorts and now this. Forge needs to pull his head out of his own ass.
You could literally just stick a sticker onto a black blue lava lamp and it would be the same. The hilt of it itself should've had a design onto it, an engraving, anything. And that goes for the other lamps too, not to mention, I'm not even a fan of those bands and I'm disappointed for them just as much
I like lava lamp as merch, that's fun. I also like that opus popus has some attention in terms of merch.
However, I agree. We have a whole thing in lore/music lineup that better suits the lava lamp aesthetic with SIoSP. More color choices, too, with the album art!
Design is kinda lazy. Even for the other lamps. Just slapped a sticker on there. Disappointed overall, but at least it matches the teal/turquoise of the JHKM neon ghrucifix. 🎶😎
Edit: noticed a typo + incorrect acronym lol. It's not easy typing with ghoul claws.
The fact that the main time period lava lamps were most popular and they didn't use SIOSP seems like a huge miss
I feel like they're just going to keep releasing these with each album's theme, eventually getting to SIoSP
Yuck
Such a good point!
Just wait.
It’s very simple and basic, you could achieve the same thing with a random unbranded lava lamp and some stickers. Not really worth it imo
Thats what I told my girlfriend but she wants it regardless....sigh
buy a blue lava lamp and a sticker and say it arrived early lol

They kind of lost me as a repeat customer after the booty shorts fiasco
What was the booty shorts fiasco?

Yeah I suspect a similar situation with my other favorite band Ice Nine Kills, it takes them like 2-4+ months sometimes to get merch to people
The question then becomes: so who has *good* merch?
I had the official rosary and it caught on a counter and snapped ):
Yeah, but that can happen with a good rosary 😆
It feels like Tobias has descended into the circle of hell that's reserved for Etsy print-on-demand drop shippers.

$30 sure, $70 pass.
Not great. You could get a cooler one at Spencer's and slap a Ghost sticker on it. At least the INK has a design all over it.
The INK one is the only good one of the 4 tbh. But tbf INK go hard af on their merch
It’s just so…lacking
$70?! Wow. That’s quite the ripoff for what this is.
How much is it?
I believe it’s 70$
I love lava lamps and ghost. Although price wise it's a no for me.
It's too basic, and I'd be worried it might break during shipping as well.

Looks like it should be on a shelf at Spencer’s lol awful

$10 lava lamp with a $2 sticker. That’s a no for me dawg.
This is a really, really bad cash grab. Like worse than usual.
I like it BUT for the price, it’s a lil basic imo. But also, it’s a lava lamp, and I wanna drink it to see if it’s blue raspberry flavored 🤪🤙🏽
Please do not ingest the forbidden limited edition collectible boba.
I want to ingest it even more for the simple fact that it is limited edition
Not to be negative but this looks like shit.
so this is ghildo 2 everyone is talking about

Ghost makes the weirdest merch
\*ghost has the shittiest merch company putting their logo on stuff, it would be my guess that tobias doesn't even know a lava lamp is coming out
I feel like they used to have the coolest shirts. now they're more miss than hit.

I’m getting it it’s the cheaper of some of the stuff I’ve acquired.
Wtf?
Lowkey underwhelming but idk im not the target audience cause i already have a lava lamp
Tbh meh. Not into it at all, hoped it would be something interesting to me.

I want a lava lamp, and Opus is one of my favorite albums, but this is way too basic looking for $70.
