    Honestly now, why, why, why, how can Blizzard think they are so bad ass that they honestly think they can get away with something like this.

    It's another way for them to make some cash, haven't you noticed how much they do this sort of thing? They are masters of marketing, I guarantee people are purchasing this kind of crap.

    Blizzard doesn't even make them, they just license them. 3Point makes them and clears the design with Blizzard so they can get the "Licensed by Blizzard" logo. This is definately a "if you make it someone will pay" thing. I can't imagine dropping a hard-earned C-note on that crap, personally. But hey, if someone's stupid enough to waste their cash (*cough* Nept*) then more power to 3point.

    Looks like a plastic toy out of a kids meal. I'm sorry if you actually bought that.

    ^This.

    I had a bittersweet trip to Deutschland at the end of a school trip to France - was too broke to buy any really nice souvenirs like steins, but I got to sample a bit of the countryside so I can't really complain ;) This is seriously a sick and sad imitation, though, lol XD

    On my most recent trip to Germany i picked up 3 of these 2 from Berlin and 1 from Hannover ... my family already has like 15 of em but it was nice to have some new ones and the price is actually a little cheaper(the WoW ones) then what i paid but they also look like cheap POS ones not gonna lie
