I bought one and sold it the same day for a marginal profit. These things are going to depreciate in value once everyone and his uncle starts getting them. If you can bear to, sell them now. Quickly. Before you start getting attached.

*Fingers crossed for a Charr Shaman when my monk becomes a year old*

Question: Can they be destroyed using the bin in the inventory, salvaged or sold to the merchant? I bet no one's dared to try any of the above.

I want a Rurik badly.. Wish I had more then 62 Ectos and 50K left :/ Being broke sucks.. At least I got a Mini Charr Shaman I love that thing!

And does anyone know which Miniatures make sounds? Jungle Troll and Charr Shaman are the only ones I've heard so far (and I love when they make sounds ).. Anyone got some to add?

I just identified my Miniature Charr Shaman, and it worked, though nothing changed, except that the second time I tried, it said "This item is already identified", unlike the first time.

Everything can be put in the Bin, including stuff like the Christmas Hat, the Antlers, the Pumpkin, and most likely these Pets, but I'm not trying.

I nearly tried to Salvage my Charr.. But I'm too scared to try.

I wonder if in the future, these birthday miniatures can do different attacks or effects?

Anyone in need of a troll, willing to trade it for any of the other ones (my friend got 2, so he wants a different one).

PM me if interested.

Anyways, yeah, they're probably going to go down in price, but that's okay, it just means if you wait it out, you'll probably be able to get a lot of the ones you want^^

How could you be close when you're still missing half the set?

I've got 2 toons 11 months old, mirra and my W.

Very excited! I have to say from images - this is a super cool veteran reward!

Id like a turtle or a midget rurik naturally, but id take a little charr shaman anyday.

Wish me luck! ^_^

Okay, on my friend's char, his inventory is completely full, so it seems like the box couldn't fit or something.

Anyone know how to get a b-day present after the set date is past, because he's definately past the 12 month mark now =/

I have to say: THANK YOU ANET!

These things are so much fun, and man, they really are addictively collectable. My fav by far atm though is the char, he is the perfect combo of cute/macho - he just makes me smile.

Here's a few more pet pics for the collection.

Jungle troll.


Necrid Horseman.


Char Shaman.


I really hope anet give us a mini bladed aatxe, now that would be sweet.

Wait i have just one question. How do i know if my cahracters are 12 months? The /age only shows how old my character is. Also, what happens if my character turns one year old and he has no slots? Most of my characters dont have any slots left. I cant go on because my gaming computer crashed and is in for repairs. Can somebody please reply to this?

They can not be sold. Gold value 0.
They can not be dyed. Pity

No idea about salvage or trash binned. I'd guess they can be trashed but not salvaged.

just like green items, the prices will start dropping once more and more people start to get them. I got a siege turtle. The little guy is so cute with the canon on his back.

Damn. I thought you can still get a present if your account has been over a year old. Not the character you play is over a year. I too feel screwed deleting two of my one year characters, only to have them recreated a few months ago.

Oh the irony. Delete your characters if you want to try the other classes, they say. Then they reward you for not doing so.

Six more months on my oldest character.

Such a little thing has ignited such fervor amoungst Gw gamers. Very sneaky, ANet, very sneaky. Just when I was getting mad about no auction houses or in-town clothes you come waltzing in with mini-pets to distract me.

And it's worked too! I am enamored with the Charr Shaman. I really hope I get one! I have to wait until my birthday to get one, only three more weeks. Yes, I am just that lame, my character and I share a birthday.

Kudos, ANet.

(PS. If we have gotten auction houses or in-town clothes, I feel silly now. I haven't been able to play Factions much since the release.)
