Fun Fact
Kazakhstan’s Minister of Communications and Informatics has blocked the Tumblr site because it contained 60 sites of terrorism, extremism, and pornography in 2015.
Ok ok so, the other day I skateboarded to the grocery store and it made me think Tim Drake would have absolutely had a skateboard with himself as Robin on it. Cities and towns LOVE to capitalize on their cryptids and urban legends (from someone who grew up in a cryptid centric city) so ofc as soon as The Bat hit the streets there would be unregulated merch of him, bc who’s gonna stop them??? The anonymous vigilante??? Absolutely no shot.
Anyways. Back to my point- young teenager Tim was known as the Robin with a skateboard (it’s a hobby, a way around after he lost Redbird privileges, he loves it) and even designed his Redboard specifically with the Robin logo, so ofc when he sees the shitty little Gotham City Sk8s store by the park has a board with HIS Robin on it, he has to have it. Look me in the eyes and show me a teenage boy with enough money who wouldn’t buy themselves on usable merch.
The headcanon brain worm got to me and I ended up designing and doing a 3D mockup of the thing (complete with the badly designed freebie sticker that came from the store with purchase), if it continues to munch away at my focus I might even write a fic abt it later kdjfkmdkdks (also tumblr said my gif file was too big </3 so y’all get a lil mp4 instead Ou<)
