Several months after Portal came out they finally started to come out with some merchandise. There was a coffee mug, a t-shirt, some stickers, and a parking decal for your car.
It was not till almost a year after the game came out that there were finally plush Weighted Companion Cubes, they even came out with a dice version for the car.
Still for some reason Valve has not exploded with merchandise for Portal. There are only seven different shirts, a mug, a plushie, and a bunch of decals, and a few posters.
I commend Valve for not starting a flood of merchandise. They never anticipated the popularity of Portal but they are expecting it with Portal 2. They already have some t-shirts out and some of the Portal merchandise is on sale in preparation for the new games arrival.
