# Beijing Olympic Kitsch Tacky BJ2008 Souvenirs By Going Like Sixty | Published 2008-08-11 | Marketing Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olympic-kitsch-souvenirs-you-can-order-online References: [bj2008eshop](https://www.bj2008eshop.com/) Despite the rather risque URL that starts *bj2008*, the official Olympic online shopping has some pretty cool AND some pretty lame souvenirs. I love the replica of the torch. It's about half the size of the original, but appears to be very detailed. A pen/pencil holder is made of ceramic and looks to be very pretty, but the rest of the stuff is just "stuff." Olympic glasses that don't have five rings? Did they just recycle the 2008 New Year's glasses? C'mon, this is China! Where are the wind-up drummers and pop-up boxers? ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 77% | Activity: 24% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Marketing](https://www.trendhunter.com/marketing) > [Branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/branding) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Olympic Souvenir Kitsch:** Opportunity for innovative and unique Olympic souvenirs that go beyond typical merchandise. - **Replica Collectibles:** Market for highly detailed and accurate replicas of Olympic torches and other significant items. - **Ceramic Home Decor:** Demand for attractive and high-quality ceramic products for everyday use. ### Sectors Adopting This - **E-commerce:** Opportunity for online retailers to offer a wide range of Olympic-themed souvenirs. - **Collectibles:** Market for collectors and enthusiasts seeking authentic and well-crafted replicas of Olympic memorabilia. - **Home Decor:** Opportunity for ceramic manufacturers and retailers to capitalize on the demand for attractive and functional home decor items. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Slick Steel Torches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2024-olympic-and-paralympic.md) - [Olympic Medal-Inspired Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bg-859-bronze-gold-edition.md) - [Olympic-Inspired Dining Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olympic-ring-menu.md) - [Time-Keeper Olympics Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omega-paris-2024-project.md) - [Exclusive Olympic Viewing Events](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airbnb-musee-dorsay.md) - [Paris Olympics Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paris-2024-collection.md) - [Olympics-Themed Tech Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-2024-summer-olympics.md) - [Performance-Driven Olympic Athlete Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/team-canada-kits.md) - [Bright Celebratory Olympic Posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paris-2024-1.md)
