Back in November of 2011, Cartman had a tea party that featured a shirtless Marc Jacobs doll called “Muscle Man Marc,” whom he called upon to help find his favorite doll, Clyde the Frog. This appearance on South Park marked the first of a fashion designer on the show, and since then Mr. Jacobs has immortalized that appearance with T-shirts supporting the show and now a real-life version of that same doll.
The 12″ plush “Muscle Man Marc” Jacobs doll is limited to 500 pieces and is now available online for purchase.

In conjuction with the DJ Food & Henry Flint exhibition at Factoryroad, the ‘house-that-got-turned-into-a-gallery’, they have produced that most domestic of items, a souvenir tea towel.
Only this one has slightly different qualities in that it can, of course, be used to polish your space helmet, visor or instrument panel, as well as being an excellent tool for removing excess water from recently-washed dishes.
Printed in chocolate brown and coppery gold, it bears the date of the show and comes wrapped in a band showing a monochrome Skullstronaut. Screen printed in Factory Road and hand-sewn.
Also available limited edition ‘Skullstronaut’ giclee print and locally sourced chocolate bars, cleverly playing on the outer space theme and packaged like freeze-dried astronaut food.
