I think that it would be a good idea to have physical ROBLOX Merchandise. One reason I am suggesting this is because many games have licenced their name and characters to big name toy manufacturers, and ROBLOX should do the same to compete. Another reason ROBLOX should do so, is so that they should get some brand exposure. Some good toy manufacturers that ROBLOX should licence to are: Hasbro, LEGO, MEGA Brands, Mattel, Bandai, K'nex and many others that I have not named. The toys could also come with codes that unlock, hats, shirts, pants, gear, t-shirts, or packages. So hear me out and support! |

It would be rather useless as you can do that with LEGO bricks anyway. Its not like the Gears will work in brick form.

@DrDrRoblox
You could do that with LEGO bricks, but if you look at a lot of LEGO creations that were based on an actual licence LEGO has done later, you can see a shift of quality, because of the new molds and parts. This also holds for any ROBLOX, creations(if any exist). If ROBLOX was to release a licences product we would get new molds for everything even gears. And the gears may not actually work in toy form, but the point of a toy is to either collect, or use your IMAGINATION to play with. |

Here are some ideas and descriptions for sets:
Crossroads: Fight in this classic ROBLOX place, comes with 2 robloxians and classic brick battle weapons.
The Heights: Duel with ROBLOX swords. Based on Sword Fights on the Heights. Comes with two robloxians and swords.
Happy Home: Begin your ROBLOX toy collection with this house, comes with a robloxian. |

for a roblox toy, they should allow us to post a picture of our character, and when we put a picture into a "character printer", we would get a 3d model of our own roblox character! |
|

@Kevin7704
I don't think that would be possible for a number of reasons, the main reason is that most kids don't own a 3D printer to do so. Yes, you can use a 3D printer to print your ROBLOX character, but I'd doubt many kids could. Most kids do have a colored paper printer, so I guess they could print paper decals of their shirts and faces and what not, so I guess a better concept would be this: you already have a blank ROBLOX figure, so you print the decals, cut them out, and put them behind a window on their figure so that their figure would end up looking like them. For hats and gear, they could buy those from blind packs or some similar concept. |

Support. This sounds like a good way for Roblox to advertise, and I wouldn't mind playing with them, even though I am of an older generation

Support this sounds pretty cool. |

Thanks for all your support, guys. Now we need more replies to get this in the admin's attention for something like a LEGO CUUSOO project or toy licence. |

Used to have stuff avalibe in the catalog, but I can't find it. |

You can print out fold-up "3D-ish" characters that you can fold yourself, without the need of a 3D printer, but it would print out a ROBLOXian 1.0 version of yourself. |

@Baseball02a
You have a very good point there, but it wouldn't be sturdy enough for rigorous play as plastic is, and most people with BC have body meshes which would be hard to fold. |

LEGO, and anything similar to it is a competitor of ROBLOX.
Wouldn't be good if they advertised with someone who sued ROBLOX anyways. |
|
|
@CjGame
They never sued ROBLOX, ROBLOX just changed the stud design so that they wouldn't get sued by LEGO. If you know LEGO, they are very protective of their building brick design. That, and we got that HERO FACTORY level, which was licensed by LEGO. |

Just a question for anybody replying, if you were to buy a ROBLOX toy, which brand would you buy from and why? |

Yes, like Clubpenguin have merchandise selling at stores and by buying it you get to recieve special items. With ROBLOX it would be interesting if you could recieve special gears or hats, this would be appealing to the younger players too. |
