Star Wars nerds will want to save up some Microsoft Points for all the excellent dolly avatar clothes inspired by The Empire Strikes Back. Arriving on May 20th, the eve of the 30th anniversary of Empire, there are tons of avatar duds that will please your inner geek. Here’s the word from StarWars.com:
In total, look out for the following: Imperial snowtrooper (male and female), Boba Fett (male and female), Lando costume with cape (male), Chewbacca (male and female), Rebel snowspeeder pilot (male and female), Han Solo Hoth outfit (male), Leia Hoth outfit (female), Bossk (male and female), C-3PO (male and female), AT-AT pilot (male and female), and props like a tauntaun pet, a ballcap with Yoda ears (male and female), and a lightsaber!
I’m not big on premium avatar goods, but some of these costumes are pretty cool. Right now my avatar has the Modern Warfare 2 goggles and chocobo accessory, which were both free. I’m probably not going to buy any, but these Empire costumes are awfully tempting.
Any of you going to pick these up?
What, no Vader?
Gypped!
uuuuh a ton ton, is it avatar rideable though?
@Insomniacswaltz I think it just does laps around your avatar, similar to the chocobo fluttering around your avatar. In my head the taun taun runs laps around me, similar to HBK running laps around Triple H.
Lol so thats how you spell gypped, thanks for the scrabble word N8R!
@Big Blak I was actually thinking Scrabble when I saw that word too. Ha!
Is it funny that I was thinking of Scrabble when I spelled it?
Yes it is N8R, yes it is.
Can you use slang words in Scrabble? Gypped is an American slang term.
@ Slicky
Yes and no. You can spell a word like undy (underwear) but not undies.
Can't wait to get a green lightsaber!
