When Stranger Things debuted this past summer on Netflix, it instantly became a national obsession, prthspd even qualifying as THE pop culture event of 2016. But although there have been tons of parodies of and homages to the retro sci-fi series, what we haven’t had is any real official Stranger Things merch. Well, that’s all about to change big time. Just in time for the holiday season, Hot Topic and BoxLunch have partnered with Netflix to announce the first-ever line of officially licensed merchandise from Stranger Things.
Incorporating elements of the showâs best-loved characters and iconic costuming, Hot Topic and BoxLunch will carry Stranger Things apparel for girls and guysâitems including tees, raglans, and tanksâwith styles unique to each brand. For instance: The iconic pink âElevenâ dress, emblematic of everyoneâs favorite telekinetic waffle-lover, which will be available at Hot Topic only.
Additionally, both Hot Topic and BoxLunch will carry their own assortment of novelty-inspired pins, patches, accessories and other collectibles, including a âFriends Donât Lieâ lapel pin and an embroidered âHawkins High Schoolâ patch. Staring December 1st, fans of the hit show can purchase official Stranger Things merchandise at all Hot Topic and BoxLunch stores and online.
Among the goodies are Christmas light necklaces that spell out messages (for when you want to channel your inner Joyce Byers) a Dungeons and Dragons style die patch, a “Coffee and Contemplation” key chain, and a metric ton of t-shirts of all different kinds. You can check out the entire intitial Stranger Things line of products from Hot Topic and BoxLunch down below in our gallery.
