Finally got settled back in with my new keychain coming in the mail from @grunklejam 😁 I'm starting to have a lovely little keychain collection, and adore anything Mystery Shack related. Every little thing from his Etsy store is extra grunkly and wonderful.
NEVER fails to shock me how much shit rc9gn got away with 😭😭 “tripping balls” “conkin balls” “swampy seconds” “let’s skip the roarplay and get to the good bit” ⁉️⁉️⁉️ THIS WAS A DISNEY SHOW
The question of 'how did they get away with this', is extra fun when it comes to Gravity Falls, because we know what some of those discussions looked like.
as a society we breezed wayyyyy too fast past Bill bringing Ford to a penthouse suite with a cracking fire, making him a drink, singing and playing him a love song on piano, then putting a chain around his neck. but then again it did air on disneyXD when we were 13. so.
The Mystery Shack Mini Shack Standee - available to preorder now at Not S&P Approved!
[ PREORDER PERIOD ENDS ON JULY 1ST 2024 - ITEMS WILL THEN TAKE 2 WEEKS TO MANUFACTURE TO ORDER ]
A 6-component, single-sided 10cm-wide Standee of Gravity Falls' most iconic location, peppered with Easter eggs and presented in a luxury foil-stamped gift box, complete with a miniature linen-effect art print.
"It's no secret that The Shack is just about the most important place in Gravity Falls, as well as the most distinctive bit of triangular architecture in town (at least since Pertinent Pete's Pyramid of Pampered Poodles closed back in '87.) So I'm never too surprised that people want to take a physical manifestation of the place home with 'em. I decided to answer those prayers properly with this - the Mini Shack!
Standing at 10cm tall and about 10cm wide, this might be a Mini Shack, but it's a huge Standee - with 6 different die-cut, matte-printed components involving the shack, the golf cart, a gnome, my wax statue's head and a pigeon called Nigel.
Nobody else does this stuff as big and complex as we've done with our Mini Shack, and we think it's guaranteed to be the best multi-layered portrayal of Oregon A-Frame architecture on the market. According to Ford, at least. I just think it looks neat on my shelf. More power to ya, Sixer.
To make it even sweeter than Mabel Juice, it also comes packed in a luxury black gift box, which is stamped with a gold foil shack design, and will be packed with a unique art print, too - which also acts as the assembly instructions. It's like flat-pack furniture, but it's actually a miniature version of a world-leading museum of curiosities! Wow!"

Kept on going back and forth on wearing this, but decided to just be myself, and be okay with my weird. Gravity Falls is the show that is meant to celebrate the weird kids, the outcasts, and the oddities of the world.
I love my shirt. It's a unique piece, from a show that's weird, made by a guy that wants to bring joy to the wearer. It's a familiar hug from a place that doesn't exist, but is a state of mind we all can share. It's home for everyone that seeks adventure, acceptance, and a family that they didn't know existed until they truly needed them.
Mid life crisis be damned. You're never too old to be yourself.
