FigurePets: A Croc, an Egg and a Willy?

For the readers out there who were fortunate enough to get their hands on a set of the original FigurePets then you can attest to how awesome they really are -- these little guys rock! I've got mine standing in formation around my Kungen FigurePrint letting everyone who comes near my computer know that I am a WoW player (or should that be "playa?" It does sound far more "gangsta" that way).
So it gives me great pleasure to inform you that FigurePets are back with a brand new limited series of three new non-combat pets. The line up this time is as follows:
Snarly – Crikey he's a beaut! If you weren't lucky enough to loot his bucket from the Bag of Fishing Treasures back in the Burning Crusade then now you'll have no worries in catching this little blighter and putting him on display – watch out though, he still bites!Egbert -- This little guy could never seem to stand still -- he runs like me when I really badly need to "go" just without the unfortunate wet patch at the end. It's like he's always trying to win that
age old question of which came first, the bird or the egg, though in the case I think we should call it a draw. This FigurePet is the only way I know to make him stand still long enough to appreciate how cute he is.
So that wraps up this set of FigurePets, a true dream team of non-combat pets. They are on sale from October 1st onwards and are retailing for the same price of $24.95 (€22,95) each in a set of three that also nets you with a 10% discount off of your next FigurePrint – not forgetting the new Classic Tier feature, lower cost for the EU and the sweepstakes for the Chicken Mount there's never been a better time to immortalize your WoW toon! Turpster the Gnome Warrior is going to look amazing in his full Might set and I'll make sure to show you on TurpsterVision when he arrives through the mail.

That sleepy willy looks...kinda...dying...
I totally would pay $25 to whip out my sleepy willy all over the place if it didn't look like it had a Soulbound Transfer Disease, but that one....

To each their own, but I don't see value in using a ZCorp printer to make generic figurines.

Agreed, what a complete waste of money, what's the point of wasting $25 on having something that just sits on a shelf getting dusty. Go take your girlfriend to the movies or out to dinner... instead.

Ahhhh they should make a Sinister Squashling one, I would buy that in a heart beat!!

Well I know that Ed and the guys who get to make the decisions on which pets are made next read the site, and I think it's a great idea, so fingers crossed for a Halloween cross over promotion! What are your top 5 non-combat pets that you'd like to see as a FigurePet? (Totally gone 'Breakfast Topic' with that last question)

2-Grunty
3-Hyacinth Macaw
4-Mini Tyrael
5-Mini Diablo
Chilly the penguin would be on there...if only Blizzard included him from beta... :-[

I'm gonna wait for Mr. Wiggles. :D He's my fav non-combat pet of all time. My character runs around all the time with him.
Gizmoduck Oct 1st 2009 1:58PM
Grunty is the best pet of all time. I would almost HAVE to buy him if he was a figurine.
ron Oct 1st 2009 3:20PM
$25 is a bit much me thinks.

Sad thing is, they look a lot better as figure prints. ^^;;

- Stinker
- Argent Squire
- Little Red Helper (hah!)
- Or, just the old humble Prairie Dog.

Well, generic figurines could be produced without the bother of a 3-D printer.
That said, I'd buy a murloc if they made one.

Just got mine..
Totally disappointed. While Egbert is really cute, its TINY. 15 bucks sure, but not 30bucks worth of cute.
