I don't mean getting outed on
Guildwatch for ninja'ing that T7 staff (no, it's still not a Hunter weapon) or cybering the guild masters girlfriend by mistake. I mean the new little beauty in the movie above that we've heard rumors of since
Patch 3.1 hit the PTR late Monday night. And fresh from the
Dalaran toy store, here it is, the Wind Up Train Wrecker. Just place down a train set, summon your little buddy and watch him go to work. This may very well replace the
Crashin' Thrashin' Racer for miniature motorized fun.
What other fun goodies await us in the coming patch, you say? How about a
Spectral Tiger child's ride. Or an
Argent Squire. Or consider the
giant mechanical gnome head that you can fly. It's not all Titan killing in 3.1, you know.
Patch 3.1 brings us Ulduar, dual specs, significant changes to all the classes, and more! We've got you covered from top to bottom with our Guide to Patch 3.1.Tags: dalaran-toys, patch-3.1, ptr, ptr-3, public-test-realm, toy-train-set, wind-up-train-wrecker, wow-patch-3.1, wow-ptr

Oh Noes! That little terrorist just bombed the rail car!!!!
Varteras Feb 26th 2009 1:07PM
I LoL'd at this. Does this mean I can destroy someone else's annoying train set when I'm in the AH?
LS Feb 26th 2009 1:08PM
Something to counter the annoying trainsets in AH or raids

oh thank Gawd!
Reinard Feb 26th 2009 1:09PM
That's an absolutely brilliant way to deal with people griefing the AH/banks XD
Carrie Feb 26th 2009 1:13PM
I guess they thought the train set was OP and so it had to be nerfed. Violently xD
Sorro Feb 26th 2009 1:16PM
Thank the maker! I hate that damn train set!

First thing I am getting when 3.1 comes out.
Gnosh Feb 26th 2009 1:20PM
All feral staves are hunter weapons.
Except those crappy ones with dodge.
If a cat can roll on Wraith Spear... etc etc

I just opened firefox, navigated to Y! mail, and waited for this page to load
All so I could read that
Sit in your corner and think about what you did

No cookies for smcn huh?
I got the staff at the end of Violet Hold the other day on my hunter. Druid with me cracked up when I asked if he wanted it. I offered not because I think it's a druid only weapon, but because he's an awesome tank and I would give it to him first and get mine on a later run.

this.... is.... awesome....

Let me guess, the new Train Wrecker costs 5k gold, right?
Narlic Feb 26th 2009 1:37PM
No no, it's only 1K for the toy. Now the newly added "Play With Toys" skill that you need to get to level 350, that's what will cost you 5K.
Malkia Feb 26th 2009 1:39PM
Forget all the other changes. This one is the best addition to 3.1. Stupid trains.
Balgair Feb 26th 2009 1:41PM
Oh wow I am SO buying this :-D
justlikehoneybaby Feb 26th 2009 1:56PM
Train sets "griefing the AH"? Some folks need to gain a sense of humor and remember the game is about having FUN. Also, you have the ability to mute sound if it is too annoying for you, in case you didn't know that.
PopeJamal Feb 26th 2009 2:55PM
Just because YOU think it's "fun" to have 65 people all yelling "Choo! Choo!" while you're trying to look for mats in the AH, doesn't mean everyone else does. I happen to think it's rather fucking annoying. It might be cute if it didn't happen every 5 minutes...
EVERY time I've seen the train dropped in the AH, the asshole that dropped it runs out the door, which clearly demonstrates that he's doing it to be a dick.
I'll be farming up some gold SPECIFICALLY to buy some of these to "ruin" peoples "fun".
