Malfoy is a vile little Nazi with no apparent redeeming qualities.  
None of the marketing people would believe that the Draco of the 
first four HP books would have fans, or want to be identified with 
him in any way.

Actually, that's a really good point. And Voldemort (IMHO) is one of 
the most boring villains ever. Okay, I know it's just me, but every 
time he makes an appearance, and is not actually hacking off one of 
Harry's limbs at the time, I fall asleep. As villains go, he's 
completely unseductive. Why they make t-shirts of him is a mystery.
