    Hehe...actually, I'd never seen Coil's thread...I was just thinking how much fun it'd be to have gorge pillow, and to snuggle up with a skulk before going to sleep. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Ahh this reminds me of the crazy for other plushys before like the fabled Leet Dolls of Anarchy-Online(They acutal did a vote on that, over 2k People said they would buy one, At 10$ each thats a definate Profit for a small run of them and more people would buy them


    Skulk and Gourge dolls would be a great way to suplement the Dev's staggeringly low Income level <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I would buy a Skulk/Gorge/ maybe a Fade and a Marine.

    I'll probably take the Skulk or the Marine to a rave and hold it on my back, hahaha. Stick glowsticks on 'em. =o

    yes I am a raver <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I'd buy some in a second, great for christmas, LAN parties, any occasion.

    Just get some skulks, a couple turrets, and a few marines and play commander.

    Come to think of it I'd love some Turrets to toss around my Desk at work(Esciplly motorised ones which beep and shoot little nerf pellets <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> )

    I'd be very partial to two plush Gorges complete with stackable walls-of-lame. I'd put one in the TA lab in the Georgia Tech College of Computing to keep all the annoying students away, and keep the other one in my room to impress the lady-folk.

    I'd totally order a Gorge if it was cute, or a Skulk. They'd have to be sorta big though.

    Hehe, Para, we need to email Homestar about the Cheat plushies.

    I'll laugh my a.. off if I ever see a gorge in the TA lab. Screw the chambers, I just want a lerk to perch on top of my monitor. Plush toys are fun for all ages!

    Ok, so its not really a vibrating broom, it has sound effects.

    When you said "vibrating broom" I immediatly thought of all the nasty Witch jokes I've heard <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Although a siege turret with an air-compression pellet firing action...

    Many people said they would buy t-shirts if we offered those, too. So far, there have barely been enough sales to make it worth the large amount of time we invested in it.

    Until we start to see people actually buying some of the merchandise we do offer, we aren't in much of a mood to spend a ton of money up front to have plush toys made for the people who SAY they are going to buy one.

    Sorry, I'd love a plush skulk as much as the next guy, but it takes a lot of time and money to do that, both of which none of the dev team have. Right now most of Flayra's money is going towards paying the obsene bandwidth charges that result from running the ns.org site, so the last thing he'll want to do his drop a lot of cash into toys which people may or may not even buy.

    Plus ALiens would be cool as long as they had the following:

    Skulk: Must have stickys on claws, to hang form windows, and mirrors and walls and stuff in dark cornors.

    Gorge: has to have a silly string thingy in its head, so when u push its belly it spits "webbing" out

    Lerk: i dont want a lerk doll

    fade: life sized with razor sharp steel-cutting-crystal claws, oh yeah

    onos: LIFE FREAKIN SIZED, thats all i gotta say... my rooms gotta be 2 things, half bed, half onos. !

    There is a precedent for people irrationally buying plush versions of evil monsters... Can anyone say "Cuddly Cthulhu?" I have two!

    Me wuvs my kewt evil old one... Him and gorge could be friends...

    But I have to look into buying a shirt now... Stupid me, I spent so much time playing the game, I forget to look for merchandise...

    Well, it'd help if you had the merchandise on the main page, or a store link. ;/

    I searched all over the site, and couldn't find a link except in the forums.
