Valve’s online store is offering up an impressive array of goodies for dedicated gamers. Portal-themed merchandise is selling out the fastest, with “the cake is a lie” t-shirts and the “weighted companion cube” plush, both selling like hot-cakes at $24.95 and $29.95 respectively (all figures US).
Other eye-catching products in the featured item lineup include:
- Half-Life 2 “headcrab” hat for $29.95
- Aperture Science mug and parking permit, for $9.95 a piece
- The Orange Box Original Soundtrack for $9.95
Valve goes above and beyond in the merchandise department, although the goodies admittedly seem a little steep in price. Still, it’s a noble cause to bring smiles to the face of a gamer — props to any motorists who sport the Aperture Science parking permit in their windshield.

I would love to have the cake tee, headcrab hat, and companion cube, but they’re just too damn expensive!!

The Orange Box soundtrack is better acquired by purchasing AudioSurf!
