This is the stuff you can only get at Microsoft's campus gift shop (MSFT)

Matt Weinberger/Business Insider

Microsoft's main campus in Redmond, Washington is big. Like, eight million square feet big. 

The good news is, you don't have to worry about seeing it all if you make the visit. The bad news is that it's because almost every single one of its 80 buildings is closed off to non-employees.

But there's one building open to everybody: the Microsoft Visitor Center. It's home to the Microsoft Company Store, which is a gift shop that carries exclusive merchandise that you can only get on the campus.

Some of it's weird, some of it's silly, some of it's actually pretty cool, but you can only get it if you make it to Microsoft's campus (though a very limited selection is available online). Check it out.

There's not much to see on the Microsoft campus for non-employees, apart from a few basketball courts, soccer fields, and tourist photo opportunities. That's me being a tourist, by the way.Matt Weinberger/Business Insider

But there's one building you can get inside: the Microsoft Visitor's Center. It's guarded by Master Chief and Spartan Locke, the heroes of Microsoft's "Halo 5: Guardians." They don't look happy to see me.Matt Weinberger/Business Insider

... plus some stations where you can mess around with Microsoft's games and technology. Somehow, every kid in the joint had figured out how to get Minecraft running on all of the demo computers sitting around.Matt Weinberger/Business Insider

But the best part is probably the Microsoft Company Store, which is the only place to get a lot of exclusive Microsoft-branded merchandise.
