Bigby's Tee: This one is a recent creation from a tee shirt contest a couple years past. I could not find it in time for GenCon which irked me but lo and behold its now on ThinkGeek's site. Well done guys. I can easily get this cool tee so let's move on to the rare stuff.
Olidammara's Dice: These are high on my wish list for Greyhawk related stuff. A pair of six-siders with the symbol of Olidammara god of rogues on one face. If you haven't heard of Olid's Dice they are an artifact only seen in 3E's Epic Handbook. There is still a Olid's dice utility on Wizard's archive that may still function too. I'm sure I can find this on Ebay someday, then I'll be able to tempt my friends who can't resist random stuff like the Deck of Many Things. Runner up here would be the Fist of Emirikol another cool D&D die that has some rules attached to it.
Mini World of Greyhawk Boxed Set: Any one remember these little gems? There was a whole slew of mini books and boxes that came out in the 90's. All I ever collected was the mini DMG. I'd love to know what kind of shrink ray they came up with to reduce everything perfectly including the maps. I'm sure I can acquire the mini boxed set. My best friend has one in fact...;)
Gord Novels: There is several titles of these alternate-Greyhawk Gygax novels floating out there and I already own a couple, but the ones I'm most keen on locating is Come Endless Darkness and Dance of Demons. The last two in the series which also have the most Graz'zt and Tharizdun action I hear. Those two novels shouldn't be too hard to get, but like comic books it's something I'd love to stumble upon and be surprised than chase it down. That's all for now. If anyone has other ideas or even has the items listed above, I'd love to hear about it.
Update 06/09/2021: I now own the Olid Dice and the Gord novels. Still need the mini box set and t-shirt though.
Update 04/07/2022: I got Dance of Demons at GaryCon XIV

I LOVE my tiny little Greyhawk boxed set. But I will be honest with you, I have found them hard to find lately.
Yeah, I'm sure I'll come across one some day at some convention. I'm just amazed they were made in the first place. Who thought up such a crazy novelty?
The mini books and box sets were part of the 25th/Silver anniversary products released by WOTC soon after the acquisition of TSR, IIRC. WOTC licensed them to 21st Century Games (and either they were printed in Italy or it was an Italian company, I don't recall which now).
