more stuff at HT

Mac and Frankie have appeared two or three times in group tees, but as far as I know they've yet to be centre of Hot Topic's attention. I do find it somewhat surprising that, Cheese's immense popularity aside, there's been considerably more merchandise focussing upon Bloo's relationship with Cheese than there has his relationship with Mac (I mean, given that Mac and Bloo's friendship is kinda at the very core of the show). I can only assume that they have far greater interest in marketing stuff featuring the imaginary friends than in anything focussing particularly strongly upon their human co-stars, no matter how critical their role within the show itself...hence why Mac and Frankie have been given the cold shoulder thus far.

Initially, Bloo, Cheese and Eduardo pretty much ran the Hot Topic show, although Wilt, Coco and even Bendy and Berry appear to have been slowly making their way in in recent months. I picked up the Wilt t-shirt during my visit to Seattle in the summer, and I know there's also been a Wilt wristband since.
