I just ordered the vinyl figures from the G-Store, making that purchase the most money I have ever spent on a single item.

Combined spending on Gorillaz (in Australian Dollars):
Demon Days: $22
Gorillaz: $22
Come Home Laika: $15
G-Sides: $18
D-Sides: $18
Slowboat to Hades: $20 (I got this and the last three in Hong Kong for considerably cheaper than I would here)
Rise of the Ogre (book): $60
Rise of the Ogre (audio book): $7 (and how dare they say it's 'unabridged'!)
Original 'Dare' iTunes purchase that got me into it:
Celebrity Takedown (on order): $34
Vinyl Figures (CMYK Edition) (on order): $145 (includes postage)
Total: $361

That's $319 to you yankees. Making it an incredibly expensive obsession. I don't know why I do it... but THEY'RE ALL SO WONDERFUL! *clings to all her Gorillaz stuff*

To those people who I said I didn't like the vinyl figures: shut up. I was in denial. Plus, those creepy videos on Youtube kind of scared me.

Yup. It's pretty hard to get all the merchandise as well. That's why I never ask for any Gorillaz merchandise when my birthday/Christmas/ anything else comes up.

I just got the pink off-the-shoulder shirt.

^.^ Lucky you.

None of the shirts tickle my fancy, I'm afraid. I ended up buying the figures because they were going for $50 a piece on eBay - that comes to $200 + for the set. So it was cheaper this way. ^.^

I love a lot of the shirts, especially the one of Noodle standing on the back. It's that shirt with the clover on the front. But I already spent so much damn money on this shirt, there's no way my mum would allow it. Besides, she thinks the shirt is "weird".
