    plush figures and more posters plz before bibs

    nothing wrong with babies.. it's just that, IMO most of the NS player base is betting on a few more years of bachelorhood <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I never noticed the bibs before, but the teddy bear thing seems a bit pointless. I would just buy a shirt so I could wear it myself. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Plushy gorgies.... sigh, I don't see why we can get bibs and teddy bears with NS T-shirts but not gorge plushes. Is there some reason; like copyrights? Or is it just too damn expensive? Anyone know?

    The most likely reason is that their items are not custom made. They're just from those sites that do it for you. i.e, you provide the design, select the generic item (like a teddybear), then it's plastered on the item.

    Obviously, a company like that won't have any idea as to what you're talking about if you request a "Gorge plushee plz!".

    But I'm just guessing...

    Ahh, never thought about that. That would also explain that crazy NS bib....

    I'm hoping for a Kharaa poster. That would rock. Mmmm...Christmas....
  • GrimmGrimm Join Date: 2003-04-13 Member: 15448Members
    I would buy an Onos plush if there were any, would be pretty funny. But usually I go for the more practical stuff like t-shirts and posters and such. Soon, after I finish saving my money for HL2, I'll have to buy something from the NS store.

    No way, a plush gorge would be so cute. I'd give it to my gf and await the coming backhand. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Or maybe a plush skulk with suction cup feet so I can stick him on the back window of my truck <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Though they should just get a plush gorge first(since he seems to be most popular) and if he sells well, then perhaps make other alien plushes.

    I say lose the bib and add a Plushe Gorge.
    Like the chibi gorge or the cute gorge!
  • mousiehamstermousiehamster Join Date: 2003-03-15 Member: 14534Members
    LMAO this is funny.
    A gorge plush toy?
    This is the WORST business ever.
    Don't tell me the target market are NS players.
    How do you advertise it?
    How much will it cost? Is it overpriced, like 30 US BUCKS?
    THe market is VERY dispersed - NS PLAYERS are all over the world.
    And how many of 'em are there... a few thousand at most. Do you think anybody else would be interested in some ugly lookin' alien plush toy? No. So the potential sales is very, very low.
    Not to mention the fact that some people aren't willing to blow 30 bucks.

    Hey man at least there's no competition <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> You could go for a <i>skimming</i> pricing strategy. LOL 40 bucks per onos doll!

    Oops forgot hl is an old game... reason that some people play hl is because requirements are low... coz they're too poor to update their pc's... which means they COULDN'T pay for it. I say a maximum of one purchase....
  • MajinMajin Join Date: 2003-05-29 Member: 16829Members, Constellation
    Its a fad!
    Like bobble heads
    People would buy them because they are so cute.
    I know that almost everyone one in the artwork forum would buy one!
    I know tons of people who would love to have a PLUSHE CUTE GORGE!
    I would buy 3!
