Several '''merchandising''' based on characters and items from the [[Rabbids (series)|''Raving Rabbids'' series]] have been produced.

=="Bunny Gonzales" figurine==

This figurine was once available to buy from the now defunct Ubi Art store as a means to promote the release of ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' in 2006, until 2009 when it became unavailable before the store disappeared - at least two statues are known to be owned by members of the fanbase. It is a resin figurine that depicts [[Rayman]] riding on the back of a large [[Rabbid]], while wearing the Goth costume from said game. It was the last figuring based on [[Rayman]] himself to have been manufactured until ~~2025’s ''[[Rayman: The Board Game]]''~~; in the meantime, a large amount of Rabbids merchandise became available.

==[[Plunger]] gun Wii remote holder==

To promote the release of ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'', Mad Catz released a collector's edition [[plunger]] gun made to hold the Wii Remote (or Wiimote for short) and Nunchuck. It was primarily meant for use in the shooting minigames in the Wii versions of ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' and [[Rayman Raving Rabbids 2|its sequel]], with a working trigger that functions the same as the Wii Zapper. They can still be found on online stores like eBay.

In 2009, Mad Catz released a [[Rabbid]]-themed dual charger for the Wii Remote to promote the release of ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]''. When plugged in and charging, the [[Rabbid]]'s eyes even turn red.

==Super [[Plunger]] Blaster==

In September 2014, McFarlane Toys released the "Rabbids Super Plunger Blaster" to promote ''[[Rabbids Invasion (TV series)|Rabbids Invasion]]''. It is a [[plunger]] gun from ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'', albeit with a slightly different design and with a [[Rabbid]]'s head sticking out of the front and a small one peeking out of the back. ~~Pulling the trigger~~ makes the [[Rabbid]] play one of 15 different sounds, ~~including~~ bwahs, burps, farts, and toilet flushes.
