Snakes, fairies, coconut monkeys....

Whats wrong with the people that have bought them (coco is as free as he is lame), I cannot even begin to speculate.

What about a king kong, godzilla, al bundy, bart simpson, south park characters, vader, voltron, megatron, a girl with big knockers... something, something "cool". Heck maybe a race car or a tank. Maybe spawn, or the vindicator. Something!

Come on. Seriously, who thinks this stuff up.

I can just hear them at the PGI board meetings....

"And their actually buying it, lol lol lol lol lol."

Is this the best you can come up with!!!!!?!!!!!!!?!!!!!!!!!!?

Ending my rant, and starting the game.

K... Chill out they'll add more. I think they wanted to stick to the core before the novelty.

I dont see the point to any of them thus think it's all silly.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder, This is all personal opinion. Just because it's not cool to your standards doesn't mean others don't like it.

HEHEHEH.

Ok, look at that list. Now pull off all the ones that are trademark or copyright violations. (Not interested in seeing this game join the Unseen, thanks.)

Now we're down to Girl with Big Knockers (Hula-girl anyone?), a race-car and a tank. Big list and not as thematic as, oh, say, a FRR holo or a Liao holo.

Shrug. Not my thing regardless, but keep in mind IP rights because the programmers certainly have to.

My main mechs have the Urbane Mech on their dashboard.

It's like having Winston Churchill by your side, bobby away, making biting remarks about my enemies.

...

In my mind, Winnie's holding a glass of scotch in that AC10.

Well I am not sure what a tape worm looks like, but I think theyre trying to sell one, but calling it a snake. And yes trademark infringement abounds in my suggestions, but its just to get the pont across, in the wide world of ideas, more appealling ones exist than tape worms and fairies.

And for those who have bought the fairy, absent the .0000!% female mech population....

How do you justify that? Are you a little.... you know.

I think D. Parton and P. Anderson share the copyright in the B. Knockers. They're out too.

My coconut monkey would bite you in the face and give you monkey ****. Plus most of those things are copyrighted. Bart Simpson? What is this 1991? e a t my s h o r ts dude.

edit: PGI, fix your profanity filter. ************* is not offensive to anyone. Neither is a i d s.

I use the coconut monkey because we all know the team with the most monkeys wins.

You do realize she's less dressed than the hulagirl? Girls who live in the bottoms of gardens and wear lingerie are easy.

Well most of those characters you said like Godzilla,Bart simpson and vader are all copyrighted and if PGI blindly decided to put these characters into the game (And at same time kill the games style/theme) we may not have Mech Warrior anymore due to them being under lawsuits from left to right. And a girl with big knockers....Nope. My Hula girl is cute enough for me :3

I've only bought one item so far (free Coco Monkey and Nvidia Dawn don't count) and that was the Gentleman Urbie bobblehead with some of my founders package MC. Darn PGI, I still think that item was a low blow... :)

Fairy was free, it is the nVidia Dawn fairy... I have an older Shuttle XPC SN45 Dusk & Dawn edition with both Dawn & Dusk on the case. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.
