Merch concepts?

I'm more and more into making more physical goods of my art, I had a few ideas and was curious how "into these" people would be? I'd hate to go into production of any of this and it not sell well if at all!

Here's the merch types I was thinking of:

Enamel Pins
Stickers
Shirts
Prints
Physical books (art books, SFW comics, not lewds)
acrylic standee and Charms


Not sure what designs i'd do (probably mostly original or maybe a few "takes" on popular media, but i don't wanna start designing unless people were actually interested.

What do you guys think? is there anything not listed here that you'd want? feel free to suggest anything!

it all depends on wha the final image is and my budget at the moment of when I run across from it. tshirts are always practical and neat unless its lewd  stickers are a cool inexpensive impulse buy when at cons or soething to add to an online order  prints have to be  something that really blows me away for me to buy them but if its rule 34 of a fave character  I can sometimes buy it acrylic stands are mildly expensive but not a bad value if you like the image.I own several of Mike Vegas characters that hes made stands  of. physical books are nice but vanity printings most anthro books get that I see at cons are pretty damn expensive compared to a comic youd see  at a comic book shop and those are over priced to begin with.but if you have a web comic thats run for awhile a print collections of a well writes story can be really nice

I think the issue with books is they're expensive as hell to self-print (i considered printing my comic which is like 120 pages? and for like 50 copies it'd be like 600 dollars) i'd have to price them pretty high to make a profit! thats part of why i haven't done that.

I'd avoid lewd art for that exact reason, you'd have to kinda hide it? I'd def do some "furry esqe" design ie. (a cool wolf, or an aesthetic fashion dog)
