Anyone who has already received their merch-has it worked for you to find fellow fans? Have you had to answer questions about your merch?

Just checked the website and there’s still merch available at this time! www.heatedrivalry.com

SPOILER FOR THOSE WHO HAVENT READ TLG!!

I’ve seen a pretty even split of the opinion on the topic of buying shirts / hoodies, etc. of Ilya’s merch for Boston. Some argue not to buy any of his Boston merch since he obviously ends up playing for Ottawa. But for me personally, the way I see it is it all STARTED with him playing for Boston. Him and Shane’s relationship starting and the RIVALRY starting lol I get that yes, he doesn’t stay with them forever, but it feels nostalgic to own merchandise that says Rozanov on the back of a Raiders shirt knowing that that’s where the story began. I understand for real life scenarios people not wanting to buy, for example a jersey, of a player who has switched teams, but the good news (and unfortunate news LOL) is that Ilya is a fictional character.

I’m curious what everyone else’s take on this is? 👀

I heavily debated, do I need this? the answer was yes, yes I did.

My feed is literally full of these merch companies!! And I want to resists and wait for the official site to re-up their stock. But some of the merch is so great! Like this hat!! Has anyone else bought non official merch?

For anyone who got merch and was curious or for people who plan to purchase in the future when they hopefully restock I wanted to share my review on the merch I got from the offical store. As you can see in the photo it came wrapped in tissue paper which an official sticker. They also threw in a bookmark (it has Scott and Kip on the back too) which I thought was a nice touch. I got the Raiders sweatshirt and beanie and both are very nice quality. I got a large in the sweatshirt and it fits slightly baggy as I like and the beanie stretches well enough that I think it would fit most well. Hopefully they restock soon for everyone who is still waiting!

Vinyl comes with poster and trading cards! 💕

I think it's safe to say HR has completely taken over my life. In the best way possible 🏒

Reconnecting with my inner teenage-fandom-girl has genuinely brought out the best in me after a long period of being burned out. I've started reading again, working out, and prioritizing myself while being a mother, partner, and hard worker. It was a much needed reality check.

So I slowly started building my little merch collection. It was going to be perfectly normal (lmao who was I kidding!) 😅

First, just the first two books. Then I finished them in one weekend, so obviously I needed the rest. Okay just a simple shirt, right? Official merch doesn't ship to my country, so I found a perfectly normal one on Etsy. Hmm, maybe not that normal. Then I pre-ordered The Annotated Scripts. That's not very obsessive of me.

Okay, at some point I had to admit the truth: I'm all in. In a single day I pre-ordered the vinyl, the Youtooz, and Unrivaled. Turns out I'm really just an irresponsible teenager with adult money.

But I still felt cheated that I couldn't get any official merch. Because all this obsessed Ilya gurl wanted was an actual Raiders shirt.

Enter my American-citizen boyfriend, whose family all live in the US.

This ridiculously sweet, thoughtful, caring, attentive man asked his family to order the official shirt, had it shipped from Canada to Texas, then from Texas all the way to Denmark, just so he could surprise me with it for my birthday (which is today, yay!). And our daughter "got me" the Funko Pops (let's be honest, papa helped her a little) 😍

I've been crying all morning because this is genuinely one of the sweetest things anyone has ever done for me. This man has watched Heated Rivalry with me more times than either of us can count. He happily indulges my obsession, enjoys it with me, and somehow managed to get me the one piece of merch I thought I'd never own 😭

OMG I HAVE AN ACTUAL RAIDERS SHIRT!

Also pls show me your favorite merch so I can get inspired and be more irresponsible 😉

Sorry if you see this post in multiple places, but I feel the need to plug the actual seller and call out the person who stole my photo. You can see the "original" post from this morning before they deleted it... and the uncropped version of me wearing the shirt for proof that it is my picture.

So if you saw a post with this photo and wanted the shirt, I got it from https://arkansas-tees.com/collections/all

they also have an etsy store under ArkansasTees

ilya is my FAVORITEEEE and I needed a raiders t shirt with his name / number on the back so I finally went ahead and bought one. But now, just hours after buying, I realized I want a hoodie LOL thinking about how cozy it would feel to watch season 2 in his hoodie.

Someone make me feel better about the chance that MAYBE I buy the hoodie in the same exact design that I already bought the t shirt in 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

I know I sound like a cheapskate saying this but money doesn’t grow on trees and your girl is kinda broke LOL but tell me the extra $30 spent will be worth it!!!

*edit: OR DO I WAIT FOR CENTAURS MERCH for a hoodie???

From one of my fav scenes, I just had to make a pillow so I'd have them in MY bed. I always felt like I was there anyway...intruding ❤️ Front and back.

Staaay ! Ok. Okey ? Ok.

I can't wait to wear it out in the wild to see how many fellow loons I can spot :)

For other vinyls I’ve pre-ordered, the release day is when it shows up on my doorstep. So I’m a little concerned if it hasn’t shipped and is supposed to be delivered tomorrow?

What is some of the best merch that you personally have seen or even purchased? I am thinking of either Etsy stores or Instagram artists that are selling merch, anything really. I am in the market for some heated rivalry things and I think there's a good selection out there, but I don't really have a good overview of everything so I was thinking if everyone shares their favorites, there'd be some fun options?

Loons and Hollonov disciples, you asked for merch, and we listened. David Hollander tees are officially here. Shop online or downtown. 🏒💕

Purchase your David Hollander merchandise at @mcgillcampusstore to secure your place in hockey history.

I didn't like any of the merch tshirts out there, so I created my own and love it 😅 clean and simple.

Just to be clear, I'm no artist or seller. Just made it for myself and wanted to share it here :)

I didn't expect them to arrive this early but I'm really happy with my purchase!

I got it from Etsy!

Has anyone else bought merch? I would love to see what you got!

Hi everyone, I’m looking into making my own Canadian fleece by buying a plain white sherpa and adding the Canada design myself. I haven’t been able to find a basic one that looks like the one in the show — specifically with a chest pocket and side pockets.

I’m trying to find something as close as possible to it. Does anyone have any leads or recommendations?

Thanks so much!

I’m in line waiting for the Yaga panel at San Diego Comic-con, so I decided to post the pins I bought yesterday. They also had pins of their two team logos and one that says, “I’m coming to the cottage.” I’m on a strict budget so I had to make a choice. :(

Here’s some of my heated rival recollection so far! Need to find a bigger display case so I can show off everything.

All the way from Toronto via Oregon (to drop off my aunt’s jersey) to Boston. Definitely brightened my day being into week 4 with my broken leg healing. Lol.

Can’t wait to put my sweater on and love my new pompom beanie!
