The Most Excellent Bill and Ted Holiday Gift Guide
The holidays are quickly approaching, and that means the pressure to find the perfect gift is on. If you have a Bill and Ted fan in your life, but you’re not sure where to begin, we hear you, but don’t fret because Nerds and Beyond has you covered. Check out some of the merchandise that makes for great stocking stuffers and general gifts for the most excellent holiday season below!
Bill & Ted 3 Film Collection
Are you looking for copies of all three films for a steal? Look no further than the three film collection set. Just like the name states, all three movies (Excellent Adventure, Bogus Journey, and Face the Music) are included in the package. Whether you want to sit down with a bowl of popcorn and have a movie night watching all three or simply have them as part of your collection, this is definitely something every Bill and Ted fan needs. The collection is also available on Blu-ray.
How’s it Going, Royal Figurine Dudes?
Were you looking for something that is more of a collectible? Entertainment Earth sells these two separately, but who would they be if they weren’t together as the Wyld Stallyns? Dressed in their 80s best from Excellent Adventure, they even come with their guitars and a detachable cardboard phone booth that you can set up yourself!
Bill & Ted’s Most Excellent Movie Book
As a companion to Bill & Ted Face the Music, it features hundreds of photographs, script excerpts, and quotes from the 31-year journey of the series. The book also features a foreword by Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon, who wrote and co-created the movie series. The book is a hardcover written by Laura Shapiro.
Bill & Ted in Style
What do you get for someone who has everything? Well, Mondo is one of the frontrunners when it comes to cool pop culture memorabilia, and they have a whole collection of excellent Bill and Ted merchandise! While a good amount of it is sold out at this time, these one-of-a-kind designed shirts by Matt Ryan Tobin are perfect for any fan of the franchise! The shirts run from sizes XS-4XL. To pull the look together, Adidas just released a collaboration with Kid Cudi (Bill & Ted Face the Music) to bring the Wyld Stallyns to sneakers in a retro high top design!
Bill & Ted Omnibus
A book to end all books — the Omnibus. Written by Brian Joines and Bryan Lynch with illustrations by Bachan and Jerry Gaylord, it features three incredible stories collected in one place: Bill & Ted’s Most Triumphant Return, Bill & Ted Go to Hell, and Bill & Ted Save the Universe.
Those Are Some Historical … Pins.
Incendium is another site that you can rely on for one-of-a-kind merchandise falling under the categories of animation, video games, toys, comic books, and of course, heavy metal. The enamel pins make for a perfect stocking stuffer to spice up your bags, outfits, jackets, and more. Along with the Excellent Adventure collection, which features Bill and Ted, the princesses, Joanna and Elizabeth, and Rufus, there is also a Bogus Journey line that has robot Bill and Ted, Death, and normal Bill and Ted.
The Most Triumphant Artwork
There are tons of unique and beautiful pieces of artwork of the characters online, but Incendium offers silk screen printed prints that are perfect for spicing up your space so that it’s totally not bogus. There are variants of both posters, so no matter what, you’ll find something perfect. As an added bonus, you’ll be supporting independent artists in the process!
Stickers? No Way.
Yes, Way! Continuing the theme of art, stickers are a great addition to any gift, and there are tons of designs online. Whether it’s a sticker pack (who doesn’t love that?) or individual stickers, you’ll find no shortage on the internet, specifically Etsy and Redbubble, where artists make and sell their art for fandoms alike to enjoy. You might find a shortage of space to stick them to after buying so many, though (I may be speaking from personal experience.)
Bill & Ted’s Most Excellent Adult Coloring Book
Have an artist in your life? Bill & Ted’s Most Excellent Adult Coloring Book is perfect for them. Who said coloring was only for kids? The coloring book features beloved characters from the franchise that have traveled through space and time to be part of this non-non-non-non (non) heinous book.
