Today I went to get Guild Wars Eye of the North (yep a little too early but still) when I opened the package which contained the smell of newness, a handy dandy map, some advertisements and a Manuscript. Then I saw this little card saying Official Merchandise,

It seems that we will soon be able to buy Guild Wars merchandise from the PlayNC Store!

There's stuff like T-shirts for each profession, Razer Hardware, Statues of professions and a Guild Wars iPod Nano (I'm so going to buy the iPod!).

Honest to God, I'd buy a Monk shirt and wear it in a heartbeat.

Sure hope they won't be too expensive!

i wear a guildwars shirt on bought on ebay some times, it seems to be a gamestop/ebgames kinda shirt that was for advertisements or something. I only wish it didnt have the web address on the back.
If they do have a ritualist shirt i would buy it, which im hoping they do.

Where are the Charr Plush toys? or Char head hats?... I would wear that for sure.... Anet take this idea from Valve (Half Life2, Counter Strike, etc.)

Note that the Headcrab plush toys/hats are sold out....

I thought those were some pretty crappy items, then again merchandise usually is and all the diehard fans will buy the bland t-shirt with little detail, lol I love that part where it says the class profession in small font.

The shirts look a bit boring. I won't get the mouse because it's not wireless and the iPod because I already have one. An iPod cover would be cool tho. I'd also like to see a hat with the logo and hand painted figures of the mini's would be awesome.

mm still waiting on the final designs to see what they look like. The shirts and figures look like they might be cool, tho.

Now, if only I can buy them from Brazil (and receive them here, too!)...

I think the shirts are a little nice, but kinda summerish for winter rolling around soon. And I hope they have a wireless version of the mouse, it looks pretty boss. I also can't wait to see what that statue looks like...hope they bring in a warrior with FoW...

But yea charr plush plz.

they look fine for 1 color screened shirts to me.

The silhouttes of the professions would work nicely (ie: , )

Theres certain things you can do with t-shirt; iconography, patterns or eye-catching text.

I think summerish is fine, ill wear a long sleeve underarmour under it when i go snowboarding ;p

I hope they make the most popular armor (ie Warrior 15k glad, Necro tatoo or Fow) into those tuxedo shirts so that it looks like im wearing the armor but its a tshirt.

Like this:
http://www.amazon.com/SHOPZEUS-Tuxed.../dp/B000JFGGTK

but instead of a tux make me look like this:
http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Image:W...ay_ front.jpg
or this would probably be easier:
http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Image:A...ll_front .jpg
or
http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Image:M...gray_front.jpg

anyway, charr plush toys yes, and tux tshirts pwn!

ANet didn't take this idea from anyone. It's the PlayNC store selling them, and merchandising has been a moneymaker in the entertainment industry for many many years... long before even a PC was a twinkle in the eye of technology. NCSoft was just a tad slow hopping on this particular train of thought.

All you have to do is get a computer image of a rit, monk, warrior etc, go to a t-shirt shop, they blow it up, to the point where it doesnt look blurry, and wahla, only cost you 10 bux.

Especially that AFK t-shirt, to make something like that costs 10 bux max, sell it for 20 or so, nice profit.

Depending on how big the nano is (as in storage), I may buy it as a replacement for my broken video one purely because it looks amazing.

If they had the symbol on the Ranger shirt as a pin or a pendant, I'd totally buy that.

Aw man, why does the Ipod have to have Eve on the back? I want Nika :P

Oh, and the shirts look "normal" enough to be acceptable in the public eye. Hell, they might even become gaming fashion
