If made this a real item in the store, you know you'd be rich, right?

Urbanmechenstein does exist. He is Classy Mech.

Don't believe me, just watch Young Frankenstein. Classy Mech is Urbanmechenstein "Putting on the Ritz"

if they had the rights to make these kinds of goodies, they probably make it, but they only have rights for digital stuff.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think Frankenstein is in public domain. Its copyright expired a LONG time ago.

I find "Stein" is a very funny word for the thing.
Didn't know that until I read it in MWO.

In German, they are called "Bierkrug" (beer mug), while Stein means stone.

So "Steiner" sounds in english like "beer muggers"?
Which is also funny, as Steiner has a big German influence and we're generally associated with beer / beer mugs / Oktoberfest.

Prost!

*Face palm slap*

I'm an idiot. I completely miss-read the title. I thought he meant a Frankenstein themed Urbanmech cockpit item, not a Stein themed Urbanmech IRL mug.

Anyway, I'd like a real Urbanmech stein. That would be pretty great.

Thank you for making me think of Young Frankensteen. My day at work will not proceed much more amusingly.

I would translate "Stein" more into "Humpen" because the beer mug is the Bierkrug, and Stein, is more the "Humpen" like slang.

25 (whatever currency) X 10,000 units = 250,000 does not qualify as rich in the 21st Century.
