While the vast majority are from Star Wars expanded universe stuff, d3v is correct in that he also makes up many of his own designs. Like his “AT-SW,” which is similar to something like the AT-PT from the EU, but is 100% a fan creation.

What a perfect hybrid of classical and chiptune music. Legit sounds like a composition from ~1800.

Oh, the medium on average can still be bad, I won’t dispute that.

There are some amazing comics out there (Saga anyone?). Don’t think free video game tie-in comics are representative of an entire medium!

controller “chords?”

Damnit, she used the vespene line on a WH40K space marine instead of a Starcraft one).
(why’s a warhammer marine at Blizzcon, hmm?)

Since when is the Draenei homeworld not Draenor? I know I’ve been out of the WoW loop, but the names and everything...

I’ve been a huge Warcraft fan since WC: Orcs and Humans, and it was a terrible movie. Just some really, really poor decisions in there. Medivh’s plot was ridiculously uncompelling. I guarantee no one who wasn’t already a fan would be able to tell you most of the main character’s names— they do things like have King…

“Hence the name Canal City; they’re named after the Panama Canal.”

Think it’s an electric violin but yeah totally agree

“pop’s in”

Uh, that’s not what ‘cherry popping’ means, at all.

The main basic reference is, one episode they introduce a character named “Mr. Poopybutthole” who all the characters act like they know, and then when it cuts to the opening credits, all the scenes in the opening montage have been redone to feature Mr. Poopybutthole in them as well.

“Man Vs. Snake Document’s One Man’s Obsession With NibblerIf anything though”

It’s bizarre that you trace this particular Aussie stereotype only back to the 1980s. It almost makes me think you haven’t seen the Monty Python Bruce sketch, which is from 1970.

Quick question, is that League artwork up top official or fan art? Where did you get it? A reverse image search doesn’t reveal anything higher res.

“Blizzard announced it would 45 cards from the game’s arena mode”

I’m sure a big part of it was that they no longer felt the animations were awesome. Keep in mind, this got cancelled in 1998. In 1999 they released this teaser for WC3:

“Guess adjectives derived from proper nouns were fair game.”

Yeah, that’s true, but the two reasons I said that are the way his tunic is blowing to the side and also that they have a version of that piece of concept art as the packaging. I was commenting on the packaging as much as the amiibo, I wonder if they edited it to have his eyes open in 2016, or if they had a version…
