holy poo poo I was kinda rolling my eyes at the design and name of it, but then the tagline completely killed me, I'm dead

edit: lol drat, it's fake, and a stealth thing at target by Cards Against Humanity apparently, no less. still, the tagline is incredible, and the knockoff nature perfectly encapsulates store-brand styles, like Crispy Hexagons, Square-Shaped Corn, and what have you

I mean, outside of them being a household name in a lot of college campuses and lots of folks up through late 20's/early 30s, yeah, nobody remembers they exist

Like every party I've been to in the last three years has had at least one or more games going throughout. They're a lot bigger than you might realize.

I wasn't saying people don't know who they are. But how else do you categorize raising the price on black Friday, selling a literal box of poo poo, selling literally nothing, and digging a hole? Sounds to me like they're just doing things to say "Hey we exist!"
Those are way more interesting ways of advertising than most.

Also I made $300 off the Bullshit boxes. At one point they were selling for 30ish bucks a pop.

Dash Rendar's death is amazing. "whoops, flew into an asteroid, that's the end of me!"

Can we have a thread to talk about the stupidity of the Star Wars EU? Not that I hate this derail, quite the contrary, but there's not a whole lot of bootleg discussion amidst it.

They likely don't have reliable molds for the more specialized pieces and replaced them with more generic ones, or pieces that wouldn't hold together in the garbage plastic they make them in.

Like not hold together not in the typical way knockoff legos disintegrate, but not be able to get them out of the mold without breaking lovely, like the bat wings and such.

Just to say, it's worth downloading doki doki literature club on steam, it's free and absolutely fantastic for its three hour run. It's definitely not what you think it is at first glance, and maybe not even what you think it is when you think you've figured it out. Great experience. Also it's got a 97% positive rating on steam with over 80,000 reviews, which is almost unheard of.

The unofficial Final Fantasy VII strategy guide was fantastic, if only because it gave you the strategy for fighting the boss following Aerith's death in vague terms without referencing the event itself, whereas Square's official guide gave you a full-page spread of clips of the death cutscene on the right-side page with absolutely no warning. It also includes a random debug enemy that was only in the JP version of the game, which opened up a whole new realm of speculation back in the day.
For a second I thought you said Final Fantasy 6, which at the time was 3, and had this loving thing:



It was at least an inch thick. It had an obscene amount of items and things listed that never existed in the game, with absurd stats. I spent so much time trying to find those things that weren't actually there.

edit: man, that sword would be really uncomfortable to hold

Man, it's perfect, Disney could totally do this sort of crossover.

They've already had a handful of various transformers already. These are, as far as I know, all official though. Still...weird.

Oh come on, that has to be a joke.
you'd think so, but consider "Quattro Vagina" is the actual name(well, undercover name) of a dude in Gundam, like, one of the most famous characters in the entire franchise, to boot

sometimes when someone not familiar with a foreign language tries to make a name similar to that foreign language, the results are unfortunate/hilarious. In this case, it's someone trying to make a similar name to "johnny walker red label" with amazing results
