Breakfast Topic: Wonderful toys

What other toys would you like to see in-game? I mean, Upper Deck's next expansion, the Blood of Gladiators, has a bunch of new stuff for us to play with. Foam swords and a sandbox spectral tiger (just in case you never lucked out or could afford the real one). I particularly like the ball I use to play fetch with my pets. There's just a lot of room to be silly and playful, I can't imagine Blizzard or the clever guys at Upper Deck running out of ideas. What do you think should be next? Gnome boxing balloons? Throwing pies? I dunno. You guys can probably get more creative.

i need a train wrecker for when they put the train toy in the AH while i'm scanning
Malkia Mar 4th 2009 8:40AM
And then everyone in AH will love you because you are their hero and saved the day!

Come over here and let me flick your ear!
Wyred Mar 4th 2009 8:11AM
I know you asked for suggestions, but I only just heard about the trainwrecker. This makes me so happy! Imo getting this is a higher priority than raiding Ulduar

all the kiddie stuff from wow are Rtarded ... and i wonder why PUGs are so bad nowadays ... things like this attract kids .. i hate kids .. especially those that plays wow

As an adult I respond: And I hate people with your attitude good sir. Perhaps an mmo is not where you should be if you hate Kids so much?
I raided Kara with an 8 year old who did better than some adults i've met...

YOU KIDS GET OFF MY DAMN LAWN!

That's funny, seeing as how your grammar, spelling, and sentence structure make you seem like a kid, I'd think you'd feel right at home with them.
Malkia Mar 4th 2009 8:37AM
I'm an adult and sometimes throwing around a lw made ball is a great amusement when we're waiting for a raid to get together.
Or have you seen the videos of raids playing musical chairs in Moroes room in Karazhan?
At it's core WoW is a game to have fun. Sometimes being a little silly is fun. Try it sometime.
Train Wrecker is the best addition to 3.1. Hands down. (I'm only partially joking there too.)

who thought that in wow are so many kiddie lovers :)
second .. i speak a second language ... how about u ?
Tumleren Mar 4th 2009 9:17AM
If your spelling and grammer doesn't make you seem like a complete baby, your attitude and behaviour certainly will.
Grow up
Desworks Mar 4th 2009 9:23AM
A second language? So you speak English as well as Stupid?
Thustra Mar 4th 2009 9:27AM
Well dunno speaking a second language is not that hard of an accomplishment. Here in Belgium most of us know three languages good enough to express ourselves. And a big part of highschool students even get the basics of a fourth (German).
That being said 'hurray for toys' as long as you do not use them while raiding or in auction houses. Also more remote controlled stuff like an eye of killrog with the ability to put a little tag on someones back "nuke me!" :p
Veliaf Mar 4th 2009 11:20AM
Well tbh, I can speak three languages decently, Donnie, and you'd probably class me as a 'kid'...
Most 'kids' who play WoW are mature, sensible and play well. What you're doing is stereotyping and assuming that anyone who messes around occasionally or maybe doesn't speak - well, type - with perfect grammar and spelling is a child.
Stop with the prejudice and discrimination already, and learn to have some fun.
Neyssa Mar 4th 2009 8:21AM
I loved paper airplanes and the Onyxia balloon - never had it but always stopped to watch if someone had it.
Dear Santa, sry, Blizz, give me a drawing board for Xmas, sry for Patch 3.1 and I would be very happy. It would be like a simple paint, and you could send your drawing in-game mail. Great for drawing up tacticts too for your party :)

I replaced the audio-files for this dumb Train-set with blank ones. Ah, the relief!

I think a neat idea for a new toy would be something along the lines of a stink bomb. You could have it work like this. The stink bomb is thrown, and has a 5 or 10 yard radius of effect, basically working like a fear effect, only slightly different. From the epicenter to 1/3 of the distance of the radius, any players in there double over and dry heave. From 1/3 - 2/3 distance from the epicenter, they cover their mouth and nose and run away from the epicenter, and from 2/3 - max distance they wave their hand in front of their face in a "fanning" fashion as the walk away from the epicenter. It may sound kind of cheesey, but no more so than any of the other toys.
Another funny idea (that would never be implimented for obvious reasons) is to have more "adult" oriented toys. I mean, really, how funny would it be to see a rouge dual wielding vibrators. This idea I stole from GTA San Andres. There wasn't much funnier in that game than being dressed in the gimp outfit beating cops and passers by with a double headed...well...you know.
donnie Mar 4th 2009 8:38AM
dual wield dildos ! dont they do that already with Dirge ? :)
Malkia Mar 4th 2009 8:39AM
I have a friend that wants flowers to be dual wield-able for the reason of "how funny it would be" ...Wouldn't that be interesting too?
pietrex Mar 4th 2009 8:47AM
This is WIN! I'm buying it as soon as 3.1 goes live! I hate these trains!
