After spending a crapton of money on stupid FFXI in-game items with generally sucky RL items, I vowed to never spend RL money on an in-game item again.

Then I saw this:


That's just too darned cute, plus it comes with a really, really cute in-game pet.

$25 isn't that that that bad, right? Unfortunately shipping and tax added another $15 on to it, blah.

Only reason I'm giving in on this point is because the RL item is so cute. And the in-game pet is too cute, too!

Weak! Weak!

Although I would totally buy one as well if I had the money...

No! Resist, must...resist!

I can see how that would go with my parents right now:

*package arrives*
Dad: What's that?
Me: Stuff from the internet.
*opens package revealing plushie from WoW*
Dad: Shouldn't you be off killing bores in the forest?
Me: *sigh*

My Mom would probably try to steal it or something.

Give it to your mom as a gift, keep the in-game pet for yourself! There, now you have reason to buy it~!

And I was just reminded of this unofficial, but well-made one.

Yeah, that one does nothing for me. If anything, it looks more freaky than cute... except the little paws eeeee!

Dev 1: Alliance need a flightpath mount still...
Dev 2: Damn that's right. Any ideas?
Dev 1: Ya...I'm tapped after making the Horde one though, no ideas left.
Dev 3: Are you guys coming for lunch or what?!
Dev 1: We still need to make an alliance mount for flightpaths before we can go!
Dev 3: Just slap an eagle head and wings on a cat and call it majestic! Lets go, burgers and fries await!

Yeah, turns out I'm 100% weak to cute too. I got one and one for a friend's kid. The parents can take the pet code, the kid can squeeze the toy. I'm a lazy gift giver that way! :P

That's a good idea! While I do like the RL plushie, it's currently facedown in a pile of clutter next to my desk.
