The movie is finally here and ‘New Moon’ Mania is now officially in full force! With the legions of devoted fans, it’s no surprise that ‘The Twilight Saga’ has inspired such a massive merchandising blitz. Here are a few fun ways to show your team (Edward or Jacob) spirit!
WHAT A DOLL!
“Taylor’s would make a good toilet brush,” joked Robert Pattinson when we showed him the Barbie ‘Twilight’ Doll Collection at the Los Angeles premiere of ‘New Moon’. The Jacob Black doll, which will be available in February, even features Taylor Lautner’s signature sculpted abs! The Edward and Bella dolls are available now for $24.95 each.
SUPERSIZE ME!
Want your hot vampire or werewolf a little more true to size? Life size cardboard cutouts of Jacob and Edward are just part of Nordstrom’s ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon for BP’ collection. $33 at www.nordstrom.com
SLEEP WITH A VAMPIRE
Sorta, courtesy of pillowcases and fleece throws featuring pix of Edward and the gang, which are available at Hot Topic. In addition to your typical movie posters, lunch boxes, puzzles and key chains, there are a couple of things that had me scratching my head though… The Twilight Saga: New Moon Bandages… and even packing tape? Huh? www.hottopic.com
EAT, DRINK AND BE SCARY!
My weekly cupcake habit at Crumbs Bake Shop just got a little more dangerous… they are featuring a yummy chocolate cupcake decorated with fangs and bats called “Love at First Bite” to celebrate ‘New Moon’. The special edition cupcake is available at all Crumbs locations and online at www.crumbs.com through November.
Quench your ‘Twilight’ thirst with a bit of movie themed gear that’s actually very practical… eco-friendly water bottles featuring Edward and Jacob. Ashley Tisdale and Katharine McPhee were spotted toting their one-liter aluminum Team Edward bottles. The Kardashians are Team Jacob! $10 at www.NewMoonBottles.com
’NEW MOON’ MUSIC
Wouldn’t be caught dead wearing a movie tee? You can still get in on the ‘New Moon’ action with the film’s soundtrack, which features Death Cab for Cutie, The Killers, Muse, Editors and Thom Yorke. www.newmoonthesoundtrack.com
