Comrades, it is time to make our final stand. Too long have we gone sleepless into the night, craving the warm embrace of a zergling plushy. Too long have we had to play with our GI Joes, when we know they wouldn’t stand a chance against marine and marauder action figures. Too long have we eaten with our families on our grandmother’s china, rather than mothership plates, with psi blade knives and pylon salt shakers. No my friends, it is time to end this famine once and for all. Blizzard must know that we wish to express our love of this wonderful game. Join me, put forth your best ideas for some awesome merchandise, and pray that the blues may see this thread. I’ll start you off:
-Void ray laserlight
-Baneling bath sponge with green soap
-Creep shampoo with overlord-shaped bottle
-Battlecruiser lego set
-Pylon lava lamps
-Creep comforter with creep tumor pillows (I would so buy this)
-Archon koosh balls
-Hellion lighters
-Viking transformers (come on, that’s what they are)
-Insulin stim-packs (for diabetics)
-Neural parasite headphones
-C-10 Canister Rifle nerf guns
-Greater spire lamps (retractable of course)
-Baneling water balloons (+green food coloring)
-Plushies Plushies Plushies!!!!
-Reversible plushies for:
-lings/blings
-overlords/overseers
-corruptors/broodlords
-Infestor plushy with infested terrans inside
-Actual arcade machine of Lost Viking
-Matt Horner’s watch
-Halloween costumes
-Spawning pool foot bath
-Spore crawler pencil holder
-Nexus tent
-Nydus worm sleeping bag
-SCV screwdriver
-Posters plzzz
-Mineral rock candy
-Vespene gas energy drink (or Chronoboost energy drink)
-Mothership frisbee
-Sensor tower coat hanger
-Leviathan bendy lamp (spine crawler lights)
-Starcraft chess set
-Plasma globe with high templar figurine inside
-Terran mech lego set
-Immortal snowglobe with goldfish (hardened shield)
-How about a phone app that lets you see whose online, check people's profiles, view all the stuff on the battlenet website (race overviews/unit stats), and chat with people on battlenet. It could add a new status: available, busy, away, mobile.

In all seriousness, I believe Blizzard is ignoring a very large and untapped resource. I'm not talking so much about the money they could make from merchandise but the value of the free advertising it would bring them.

Void ray laserlight, Ling plushies... T.T
all the way!

I actually hit up blizzard about licensing my BANGling plush with them, but got no response. =(
|
I need an Archon Pushy/ Ling Plushy come on blizzard, Spore crawler stationary holder is nice too
|
Lego Starcraft would be amazing.
But the sets would probably cost more than the game itself, and I can't afford it.

I would totally buy a creep comforter and tumor pillows.

Oh god I want a hellion lighter.
|

I would buy those.

-Spawning pool foot bath there should be a - Spawning pool jacuzzi so you can 4 pool with 3 hot chicks. 
|
Hell yes I'd buy some of these merchandises if they come out.
If it's with some quality of cos.
|
SC Chess would be the greatest invention in the world
|
Supply depot door mat...
lowers via some air pump mechanism when you open your door and inflates when you close it again?
|
I'd buy starcraft action figures if they made some. They had hydra, zealot, and firebat ones made at the beginning of sc1, but I wasn't able to get one so it'd be cool if they released some more for sc2. If I had a choice, infestor, templar, and ghost!

Haha.. Nice one.. Especially with sweedish chicks!
And the "stim-pack" insuline would be fucking awesome!
|
Pylon lava lamp still is deepest in my heart.
|
I think if you voted no, you should get banned
Hope about this, baneling inspired condoms?
|
A lot of these actually sound really creative and awesome. I'd definitely buy them. Blizzard you have 24 hours, go.
Edit:
Dark swarm fog machine
Brood lord pez dispenser with refillable broodlings
Lego sets in general, (none of that bionicle stuff I want real Legos).
Banshee nighttime eye cover
Limited edition Tycus cigars (rolled on the smoldering bodies of dead zerglings)
Water powered nuke rocket
+ Show Spoiler +See this? I want this, but with the marine's gauss rifle.
|
Holy shit I want a stuffed baneling so bad. Who made that? :O
|
The energy drink should be called Chronoboost 
|
baneling mouse would be badass
|
|
|
hydralisk/zergling bottle opener
SCV wielding machine
roach penholder
ghost academy juice maker - manual one
dragoon ashtray
command center fridge magnet

Ultralisk Ram set.
Target audience? SWAT teams looking to break down doors.
Let's hope ram works this time!
|
Things i would buy.
-A real Ghost Nuke with real atom splitting action
-A vial containing the real Zerg Virus.
-A life size samir duran robot.
-A lifesize Hyperion with actual yamato cannon.
|
These are very creative ideas. Kudos for coming up with them.

Plaguuu play-doh?
The kids would love it. The best part would be when they are trying to describe what it is it to their parents lol.

They'd be even more angry if their kids smushed this into the carpet because their house's hp would be reduced to 1.

Poster please -_-
Seriously Blizz. How hard are these to make?

How about a phone app that lets you see whose online, check people's profiles, view all the stuff on the battlenet website (race overviews/unit stats), and chat with people on battlenet. It could add a new status: available, busy, away, mobile.
It would also be cool if SC2ranks.com made an phone app.
|
Starcraft Gaming cards?
Make it a Yu-Gi-Oh set but with Starcraft Units ; )
Would so buy that.
|
overlord party balloons.
but the one thing i want more than anything is a model roach warren. sometimes i just like to watch the roach warren upgrade because of the roach that pops out and om nom noms. i want a model that can do that.
|
Planerary Fortress money box would be awesome!
|
House designed as a Command Center.
|
ebay has a lot of people with poster printing machines that are paking posters using official blizzard artwork. Admittedly official ones from blizzard would be nice but if you really wanted an sc2 poster they're not hard to get. The only official blizz sc2 posters would be the ghost one they gave out in blizzcon.

Baneling plushie ftw!
Besides that, did anyone post this on the official B.net as well? I remember bling plushies as threads on the EU forums, but not with this many epic ideas.
|
Photon Cannon coasters
Warp prism lamp
Overlord baby mobile?
Roach Soap Dispenser (green soap of course)
Full Body Larva Pillow
Mutalisk Ipod Dock

i know energy drink has been used but i think an energy drink shaped like a needle (somehow) called stim(pack).
special game mods that give you cool unit models like thor w/collectors ed.
ice chest, with a radioactive symbol on front, comes with stickers that say "thank god for cold fusion" and " I got your zerg right here."
(+1 if you get that)
U-238 bullets
U-238 bullet necklace(with hazardous material symbol and warning)
psi storm pepper spray
SC1 medic shield/SC2 marine shield.
tee shirt with clean CMC-400 power suit printed on it
tee shirt with scratched up CMC-300 power suit printed on it
tee shirt with clean CMC-230 XE "thuderstrike" armor complete with jets on back, with optional skull ski mask.(see cover of Heaven's devils)
for the last three, think of those tee's that have tux shirt printed on them.
Overmind playset: children 5+, "teach your gamer to be how to own n00bz and promote good/evil morality while your at it!"
ghost night vision goggles.
|
I really want an M&M Playset.
Don't leave me hangin!
|
-Starcraft chess set
That would be awesome.
|
Some of those ideas are sick - I've got a bunch of really cool action figures of a hydralisk, firebat, and zealot from the BW days. They hang out on my bookshelf.
Also, if you watch the goatshow (one of the featured streams here) we made shirts with a mashup of a baneling and goatrope's cat, carrots:
![[image loading]](http://www.teesey.com/shirts/images/90/)
You can google "baneling carrots" if you wanna see more.
|
We really do desperately need more SC2 merch. Just imagine the beauty of a viking flower t-shirt
|
|
|
I desperately want an ultralisk plushy since that "The Happy Ultralisk" thread. Not to mention that heart-rendering youtube vid.

You, sir, are a damn genius. I would buy that so fast. You can imagine what's going on when the "speed upgrade" is going down!! Haha.
|
omg pylon lava lamps? Hell yes.
|
I would for sure buy a Starcraft Chess Set. Only TvP though ;o
|
|
|
I want a baneling fleshlight.
Don't judge me.
|
Spore Crawler Fleshlight please
Edit: Wow person above me has an even sicker mind than me....
|

Well it would have to come with three sets of pieces. I'm thinking something like this:
Pawn: zergling/marine/zealot
Rook: roach/marauder/immortal
Knight: infestor/ghost/templar
Bishop: mutalisk/banshee/phoenix
Queen: queen/raven/mothership
King: ultralisk/thor/colossus
|
Was just looking on gmarket and found this:
![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/VSuDQ.png)
|
I would shell out some serious cash for some a GSL team shirts/jackets. OGS in particular.
|
If i get a baneling bunny i have too much fear that he explode during my sleep, so no

This.
Best idea I've seen in the thread so far (though I REALLY want a Baneling plush doll)
|
After coming from the Gundam modeling thread over in General I have to say
1/100 Thor model kit NOW
|
Since it's thanksgiving:
Potato baneling with gravy inside
Ultralisk turkey (use carrots for the claws)
Creep tumor biscuits (gravy creep)
Infested Terran egg stuffing (brusselsprouts?)

While I don't agree with your unit choices (King/Queen: should be hero units imo :D) I would definitely buy this as long as it wasn't stupidly priced ( IE: no greater than $120)
I can't wait for them to bring this stuff out, i'll be onto it straight away.
|
Pylon lava lamps
would buy
|
Even just totally noncreative high detail figurines and posters would be a step in the right direction, I mean, there were so many wow figurines over the years.

Probably the best forum post I've read this week.
I really want SC merchandise...I'm really surprised they aren't trying to tap the market given that SO MANY people would buy it..

Oh my god, this made me laugh so hard ^
But seriously, WTF is Blizz thinking. If Kotick was to get wind of this thread, I'm sure he'd make it happen with dollar signs in his eyes :D
I want my plushies so bad! And posters too.
|
What about Dark Swarm umbrellas? I'd have so much fun with it.
|
Various Units as key pendants
|
I always wondered why blizzard doesnt indulge themselves a bit more in merchandise sales when clearly there is such a huge demand for them. Makes sense because the sort of following blizzard games have generated over all these years are of the obsessive and sentimental type.
Id be happy with more varieties of what they have now; figurines other than the obvious Marine/Hydra/Zealot, posters other than the obvious Tychus/Raynor close ups. A mini-colossus on my desktop would be sweet, as would a neat little postcards of some of the concept art.

the archon koosh ball made me laugh so hard... id totallly get one

Since it is almost valentines day, I thought you all might be looking for some great ways to tell that special girl how you feel about her, while also letting her know how incredibly nerdy you are.
Start with some jewelry to win her heart over:
http://www.thisnext.com/item/05F55A93/91FB526F/Starcraft-Zerg-Hydralisk
http://www.thisnext.com/item/A46B4812/F3295047/Starcraft-Zerg-Mutalisk
Don't forget to include a card:
http://kotaku.com/5152941/starcraft-ii-valentines-cards
Maybe a new outfit too:
http://fashionablygeek.com/costumes/epic-starcraft-ghost-costume-spotted-at-blizzcon/
And if you are feeling really ballsy, try getting her some sexy lingerie:
http://www.cafepress.co.uk/ i_got_zerged_classic_thong,13881297
Trust me, deep down, every girl loves Starcraft and everything about it. Their biggest dream in life is to hook up with a Starcraft gamer. Yeah they may be like, "whats starcraft? who are the zergs?" but inside they are thinking, "oh my god his muta harass is so sensual, I can't wait to get a hold of that spine crawler, oh banelings banelings banelings!"
|
Oh man everything on that list is a fantastic idea. Genius!
|
|
|
queen of blade chopping block with
zerg exo shell themed bone handle knive
and ultralysk themed truck grill
a ghost themed tinted green googles
photon cannon plates with matching ball laser shaped cups
a comand center themed dart board
raven, science vessel overlord,or observer plug in motion activated night light
|
I would like a Tshirt with the Terran logo either under the left or right arm, or on the sleeve itself. That way, you dont look like too big of a nerd with a giant SC2 logo on the front. And only people who recognize the symbol know what it is.
Or Id like either one of the new Teamliquid shirts (I dont like the current one, baby blue doesnt appeal to me), or an EG shirt. Both are so sick.

Ghost Academy alarm clock / radio that does the 'nuclear launch detected'-SFX as wakeup sound.
Trasculent dark templar-statuette filled with that glow-in-the-dark-powder.
Chocolate-covered 'mineral' crackers - now YOU can be a drone, too!
Candiced sugar 'high yield mineral' snack.
Reactor addon-shaped sports drink container.
MnM chocolate snacks shaped as tiny marines and marauders.
Retro MnM chocolate snacks shaped as tiny marines and medics.
... I just realised most my suggestions are edible. Damn you, late night hunger.
