The Fallout series<\/a> is one of the most popular video game franchises of all time. Naturally, that means there’s a ton of Fallout merch. <\/p>\n

Like any product tied to a specific IP, you can always expect some sort of markup on officially licensed products. However, these recently announced Fallout bookends are taking that to a whole new level with a price tag of $325 at Sideshow<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

While $325 isn’t unheard of for a hand-painted collectible figure, it does seem like an excessive price to pay for a set of bookends. Just to put it in perspective, you can currently get a semi-functional Pip-Boy replica from the IGN Store<\/a> for only $300. Dark Horse also recently launched, in my opinion, a much cooler set of Fallout bookends for only $179.99<\/a>. <\/p>\n

So what exactly is making these bookends so expensive? In addition to the licensing fee to collaborate with Bethesda on the product, these bookends apparently weigh four pounds each. They’re “meticulously sculpted from polyresin” and individually hand-painted to achieve the antique metal effects the Fallout series is known for.<\/p>\n

The official Fallout bookends are available to preorder now with an estimated shipping window of November<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
