Timmy the ThinkGeek Monkey is n’t pitiful . Not one act . He ’s just stress to fit in with his new friends ! They ’ve got , shall we say , a dark taste in style . They shared his love of Star Wars , Doctor Who , and Minecraft , so why not reciprocate ? Oh , and $ 122 million in cash did n’t suffer either .
Today , Hot Topic adjudicate to buy ThinkGeek for $ 122 million . Not a immense surprisal : Arguably , they ’re the top two ship’s company that betray “ wear and appurtenance that celebrate democratic subculture , ” for deficiency of a better word .
It ’s not clean what will pass now : possibly we ’ll get ThinkGeek retail memory board , maybe the ThinkGeek sword will replace the dated ‘ 90s spicy Topic brand , or maybe Hot Topic will imbibe its online challenger . Maybe Hot Topic just wantsThinkGeek ’s Unicorn Meat and other custom - made exclusive product ? Could be . Ca n’t say yet .
Personally , I hope the outcome is one where ThinkGeek thrives — and Hot Topic mother more playfulness and relevant in the appendage . I ’ve bide a loyal customer because ThinkGeek always has a wonderfully curated collection of awesome toys and a fantastic sense of humor . It ’s fun to shop there .
So do n’t make the monkey cry , Hot Topic . Keep ThinkGeek alive , or we ’ll never forgive you .
