EPE has entered a licensing agreement with WMF for the production of Elvis kitchen equipment, such as water boilers, coffee machines, toasters, wall decoration and a portable radio. All with a fifties image of Elvis and his...

Yet another wasted licensing agreement by EPE!!! $65 for a toaster just because it is "officially sanctioned" by EPE??? RIDICULOUS!!!!
Just another example of how EPE has absolutely NO grasp of the economic downturn that so many of the fans are currently experiencing!! If they did, perhaps they would do something to help out the fans that have kept them in business all these years instead of proudly announcing $65 Elvis toasters!!!
TCB!

You ask how long I love you, I'll tell you true,
until the Twelfth of Never, I'll still be loving you

When I read about the crap they license and then read that they don't want to release the last tv special because they only want to show Elvis at his best.........

It's carnival time again.......
Lets look at it this way,a certain segment of Elvis fans-loves this stuff.
"If you build it-they will come!" (to steal a phrase from the film Field of Dreams)
To these fans it is an addition to the hobby they love adding to with pride-anything connected to Elvis.
I myself am not one of those-but as long as some people are-more and more things will be marketed that some will not like.
I would love more music-but realise they do not own it nor even get artist royaltees for most of it, and I love the films and live appearance videos which they also do not own most of.
Not sure how to stop this type of marketing-as long as someone buys, it will be made.
Work in Progress!
connected with Elvis
that's the problem - anything you can slap a name or image on, isn't connected
there's no Elvis kitchen appliance connection - Elvis music players - sure: iElvis
but that's the part of the problem that the fans contributed to - we collectively buy anything with Elvis name or image on it
we get the products we deserve
