I didn't actually get into the anime Naruto until after ACen, but nowt hat I think back to it I remember a vendor in the Dealers room selling what looked to be Naruto T-shirts and the like ^_^; Like Naruto's top and Sasuke's top with his clan symbol on the back.. can anyone confirm?

Oh, and if so does anyone know if they have an online site to buy things? ^_^;

I saw headbands but no shirts. Try ebay.

I'm actually fighting right now to get a Jounin vest and headband from Bandai (because they have them in Japan) and I'm trying to find somebody somewhere that'll import it for me! >.<
It's cheap too. Only like 5000 Yen. The cosplay place I wanted to commission one from wanted $180 to make it.

As far as Naruto merchandise, all I saw was the soft plastic forehead protectors packaged with a plastic kunai. Bandai Japan has better ones made from actual metal. Anne said you can find them on ebay. ( use keyword "naruto"). I wish I had thought of ebay before making my costume. ( I was Sasuke ). There were some shirts and also some Naruto doujin. I have a feeling that as the year progresses, you'll have an easier time finding Naruto merchandise as it will gain popularity due to it being in Jump USA.

They did in fact have the metal headbands but they sold out that morning as soon as they opened, and I heard from a friend of mine that they wanted $85 for them (And she actually bought them). On eBay they go for about $40 (Bandai sells them on their site for like 1200 Yen) and the Naruto/Sasuke/Jounin shirts go for like $150-300 when they're really supposed to go for like $40.

I'm going as Kakashi next year and unless I can find out if Bandai's Lalabit Market ships over here I'm gonna be paying a lot of $$$

That's funny, cause I'm going as Kakashi-sensei this year as well. I'm trying to find the jounin vest in my size....I actually bought a pair of contact lenses that are of the sharingan mirror wheel eye. I've been a fan since they fan subbed the very first episode, and have been reading the manga ever since the made the translation for it! if anyone knows where I can find a vest in a large size, e-mail me please.
