Great Suggestions so far! Keep 'em coming and I will do my best to see what I can get made.

Thanks!

Two things:
1.) I purchased the box set and some of the DVDs are scratched. I obviously don't have enough time to view ALL 54 DVDs to see if the scratches will affect the playback quality. So what do I do about this?

2.) Since the box set offers so little protection for the DVD's how about releasing a DVD binder with the Stargate Logo on it to store them more securely? I would gladly buy one.

Where did you get the DVD Set?

Mini Desk Calenders, I mean come on, I see the wall calanders but not the mini ones I would so buy two fo those, Why are they not out there for purchase already??

[Darkdreams]

I'm not buying the big every-single SG1 episode DVD set out now as I already have them. I'd like to see the bonus disks made available to fans who already bought every single season.

Make the bow before you God shirt available in black the current color sucks, I mean it retracts from the impact "Bow Before your God", make all shirts available in all colors (white black ect)

ALso make Ipod video skins available with SG1 and Atlantis themes. SG1 and Atlantis notepads, pens and stationary.
Mousepads, cool drink coasters, Ill post more ideas later as I think of them.

Oh, how about a book with ancient writing, gou'ald writings, book with cool color photos of props walls costumes, ships, artwork, blueprints ect

I personally am not a huge fan of t-shirts, especially ones with peoples' faces emblazoned all over them. I'm from the midwest - where porn is easier to get than scifi and wearing the t-shirts automatically tosses you in the 'pathetic geek' category.

However, t-shirts with...oh the logo/name embroidered small in the upper left side, or fleece hoodies with the same could be cool (as long as they're not in the $75 dollar price range)

Some folks really enjoy the 'loud and proud' but others like things a bit more tame.

I second the Jackets. I've wanted one for years, but couldn't buy one when they were originally offered on the first site simply because i couldn't justify 150 dollars for a jacket.

i fifth, sixth or 7th the 'bonus disc' idea. I have to buy my dvd boxed sets used, so i sure can't handle full price to buy what i already have.

I have a question about the dialogue scripts you guys have up on your site. FOr the previous years, there are scripts for all sg1 and atlantis eps...but now, for season four, there is only a partial shooting script, some only a few pages long. Is that deliberate or an oops?

[Redhooks]

If you want an idea for the extra discs from the Complete Series Boxset that people want seperately, why not have a special edition of the Ark of Truth DVD with two of the discs and then do the same thing with the Continuum DVD? That way people who have the disks could just by the movie DVD and the other people who didn't buy the complete set could buy the special edition versions. There wouldn't have to be a special release then of the bonus discs.

[Skydiver]

that makes sense, at least to me.

I'd like to see camping gear such as tents, sleeping bags, etc.

Affordable weapons/props. Like zats, wraith stunners, staff weapons, stun grenades, ZPMs, GDOs, naquida generators and so on. Ships and model ship kits. Puppets from 200th episode of SG-1.

[Gate Geek]

Personally, I want to see more Atlantis merchandise. While I like Sg1, I like Atlantis a whole lot more and there is just nothing there to buy.

I agree with Skydiver. If there are T-shirts, keep it simple. Embroider the logo/name on the front left side and leave it at that. I don't mind advertising what I like, I just don't want to scream them out to everyone. And that's all I see in the current T-Shirt designs.

I would also like to see sweatshirts (regular pull-overs or pull over hoodies - not those full front zip kind). I live in the upper midwest. We only have about three weeks where its actually warm enough to wear t-shirts.
Thanks for listening.

Season 9 and 10 t-shirts including Vala, Mitchell and General Landry would be great idea (no O'Neill please!). I'm a huge fan of these seasons and would love to have one with my favourite characters. Or a shippy t-shirt with just Vala and Daniel

Something that a lot of people want, but it is impossibelto find, is a reissue or a replica of the glasses Jack O'Neill wears. I believe they are Bolle Crevasse Glacier sunglass and they aren't made anymore. If MGM could ask Bolle to maybe remake some for a Stargate themed run, I'm sure a lot of fans would buy them. I emailed Bolle's corporate contact us about suggestions on where to find some and they never wrote back.

Also, the patches are really cool. How about a polo or hoodie without a giant logo or nerdy looking text? Instead can we get some muted, grey, army green, or navy blue, clothing with small, respectable logos, like say the point of origin symbol or something. The Atlantis jackets are cool...

Oh and, I don't know if this is what you want to hear, but no one is going to buy those 12 inch figures. I'm going to be blunt. They look bad and are going to be peg warmers like most of the Marvel ones are. Maybe some people will buy a Jack or two, but beyond the main cast I doubt anyone wants one besides super hardcore collectors. This is coming from someone who has all the 6 in diamond releases so far.

Has there been any progress to stop scratches from occuring on the 'Stargate SG-1: The Complete Series' dvd's? I want to buy it, but every single review I had read says they all come with scratches due to bad packaging....

Unfortunately we don't sell the DVD's so not sure if this was corrected. I did find a number for the MGM Defective DVD Hotline though.

Sorry I could not be of more assistance.
