BlizzCon online store now open

Everything is available for the next 48 hours to be purchased through the Blizzard Store. If you have a ticket, the original ticket buyer with the Battle.net account must go into the store and order the items. If you don't have a ticket or are not the holder of the Battle.net account which purchased the ticket, you're probably going to have a hard time seeing them, so we've made a gallery of the item listing for your enjoyment.
While there's a few things that are unique to BlizzCon in the store, there's nothing really amazing, in my opinion. What I really want is a poster or shirt of the next expansion, and I'm not surprised it isn't in there. So maybe there'll be a little line-standing time after all (assuming they announce it, of course).
If the gallery images are too small, click the "High Res" button located in the upper right-hand corner of the image page and they'll appear at their normal size.
Lovely Black Dress also has a nice listing of some of the items, including a collage.

Could you make the images a little smaller, please? I can almost actually tell what they are. Thanks.

You should have bought a ticket to Blizzcon and you could have went to the store and seen them all just fine. Also, try actually CLICKING AND OPENING the gallery, because I did just to see if your QQ was warranted and guess what, THEY CAN BE VIEWED PERFECTLY FINE.

This not being the Blizzard store, the images are fine as they merely represent small snippets of what's been added. If you're truly interested to read the fine print, use the link that WoW.com provided.

When viewing the gallery here: http://www.wow.com/gallery/blizzcon-2009-online-store/
Click each image, and then click the "High Res" button for a larger view.

No, buzzard breaths, the Blizzcon store is not available for general public viewing - "To access BlizzCon 2009 merchandise, you must sign in with a Battle.net account that has been used to purchase BlizzCon 2009 tickets."
And I have tried to click the individual images, it just browses to the next set of images, it doesn't enlarge it.
And I guess if my mommy was buying the ticket I too could board a cattle car and fly across the country, stay in an overpriced hotel, eat overpriced hotel food and ... mingle with the likes of you.

Well, since you're going to be a troll, you can take yourself someplace else.

Since it appears you got banned I don't think you will be able to respond but nevertheless, we all know you have to have a Blizzcon ticket to browse, hence why I said, "You should have bought a ticket." Secondly, you don't click the individual image, you click the "High Res" link. Third, my "mommy" didn't buy me a ticket to Blizzcon so like Adam said, take your overly outdated "video-game-nerds-live-with-their-parents" stereotype somewhere else while we all enjoy Blizzcon.

i think its funny how when someone speaks truth or anything, the sheep and their watcher rush out to strike..
Sure, the stuff is available to blizzcon ticket holders...but not too many people outside of it care...its nothing extravagant.

Because of course, what with Adam stating that they grabbed them off the Blizzcon website, it didn't occur to you that the images are the size that Blizzard has put them onto their website, naturally.
Whiny stupid people found to be both stupid and whiny. Sport and Weather at 11!
(P.S. If you want them bigger, and with reduced image quality, you could just...save them yourself and open them in Photoshop/GIMP/MS Paint/whaddevahyagot. Or was that just *too* much trouble? Honestly. Kids today.)

Can you provide larger images of the tshirts? Those seem to be the only things I can't figure out what they look like. I know when you select an item to purchase, it's page has at least a slightly larger image.
Stephen Aug 5th 2009 1:46PM
That's the same size as on the Blizzard Store website. I was trying to get a closer look at the Goblin faction t-shirt they added, but you can't zoom in on it.
Adam Holisky Aug 5th 2009 1:47PM
Same size. The whole BlizzCon store is... underwhelming.
Stephen Aug 5th 2009 1:43PM
A lot of the stuff was there last year, like the art books, arthas helm, license plate cover, inflatables, pandaran bottle opener, stress balls, etc.
They've got some plush murlocs that I bet will be sold out pretty quickly. Murky (blue) & Lurky (white).
chipersoft Aug 5th 2009 3:19PM
Yeah, I'm kinda disappointed at the selection. There's not much here that's new over last year, although that Murky figurine is cool.
Kinman Aug 5th 2009 1:45PM
Where is the jumbo size special edition BlizzCon Febreze?
mirilene Aug 5th 2009 1:45PM
plush baby murlocs for 15 dollars seems pretty amazing to me, actually.

When I want to Blizzcon I had to actually physically purchase and carry all of my swag around, then figure out how to pack it to get it home. It really gave the con an epic feel.
Now the n00bs can just order off the site and have it sent to their house? OMG, Blizzard is caving to the casuals again! QQ!

thats exactly what I did last month at San Diego Comic Con, except I had to fly it back to the UK :D:D had to put my dvds in my backpack so UK customs wouldn't xray them and spot them *whistles*

Other than the messenger bag, I didn't see anything that appealed to me. I don't know if I will spend $60.00 on a bag.
