OFFICIAL MERCHANDISE
Collecting official items for Moral Orel can be a real drag.
We are sad to report that, like with many other shows, Adult Swim really dropped the ball when it came to merchandise for Moral Orel.
Alongside two Kidrobot toys and two official T-shirts, Moral Orel Volume One on DVD was released in America.
Other than using Orel’s face on a few additional promotional items, that’s the extent of merchandise released in America.
Fans will be happy to learn that Madman Entertainment (Australia / New Zealand) bought the licensing rights to Moral Orel and released Volumes One, Two, and Three in Australia, alongside the insanely rare Complete Lessons Collection DVD. Although these releases get negative reviews due to some episodes being censored, these are the only official releases for Volumes Two and Three.
Below, we have an extensive list of (almost) every official Moral Orel piece of merchandise.
We categorize items in a 1 through 5 system.
We call it the Orel System.
PLEASE NOTE: The price ranges below are a reflection of what we have seen the items sell for online over the past few years.
These price ranges don’t always reflect on the items true value.

Beforel Orel DVD USA (Emmy Screener)
Name: Beforel Orel DVD USA (Emmy Screener)
Release Date: circa 2012
DVD INCLUDES: One DVD
Additional Collector Information: This release was created exclusively for registered Emmy voters. It is a rare Emmy screener that was intended only for Emmy voters in order for them to be able to watch Emmy nominees before they’re released to the public, and so they can vote for their favorites before the award season. Unfortunately, as is protocol with Emmy screeners, many were very likely either returned or destroyed after they were viewed, and even fewer people managed to hold onto theirs and lost them. There were only a handful of these made (there were 12,000 registered Emmy voters in 2012), so finding a single one of these can prove challenging.
