Uhhhh........okay, I guess if people would buy it and that CE money I gave them doesn't go to waste, I'm fine with it. :P
Spiral knights Merchandise?
Wow someone revived this thread...
On behalf of the whole SK playerbase,
http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/70558
We would request plushies of devilites, snarbies, wolvers, chromalisks, gremlins, jelly cubes. Sadly, we can't "soften" the constructs, silkwings etc. D:
I would probably suggest a Snarbolax night lamp. Like a Snarbolax model, but you can plug it in and the eyes and thorns on its back glow. And maybe if you can have it on a platform make it little Snarby thorns sticking out the ground with it, make those light up too.
And yes. Snarbolax plushes and Mewcat plushes.
I would blow my life savings for these, really hope they happen. ^_^
Design your own plushy...Just upload your own template. I might make a separate thread if its sparks attention.
Yo! Btw, how do you make a picture with your forums post? :P
Shouldnt this be out by now?
I really like the gun puppy flash drive idea :)
BUT, THEN AGAIN, I WANT A WOLVER COAT :)

I have a List of items *shows long list*
First off, i would purchase a Vog/Snarb/Skolver coat.
A SK t shirt with assorted art, as in the snarbolax on the front and the Fruminous fang on the back, and so on.
Posters. Please Nick. POSTERS!
Gun puppy USB's kudos to you Treeant! :D
Maybe little figurines of our knights? :>
and everyone who said Plushies. I agree with y'all there! :D
But thats about it for my Winterfest list, Impostoclaus, can you send it to Nick for me? :)
I'd totally like some Merchandise.Expecially like some action figures.I think NECA or Hasbro should make the figures.It would be really cool if the players of the game got their own custom figure(Don't think you'd be able to get all players,but its worth a shot.).Also plushy Snipes and Snarbolax's would be really neat to,Also gun puppies/love puppy PEZ dispensers would be cool.
This comment was old and useless. Ignore it
OOO, go talk to these guys. What they already do for WoW, make it happen for SK. I was always tempted to get one of my WoW character but the price put me off. You couldn't stop me getting one of my SK character.
Awhole costume set so i can wear on the anime convention. Something like a whole snarby armor + helm + Plastic Barborous rapier. Would love to have that.
Would anyone be interested in small pendants (or otherwise keyrings or similar) of the various tokens, cast in aluminium with the pattern recessed and painted in enamels?
Miniature / keyring / lifesize* shields?
(*Defender range and possibly owlites for the time being; not available in metal)
I've got a few ideas on the above, and would like to attempt to make them myself should an agreement with OOO/Sega be possible, but I'd like to know how much interest there would be.
Details:
Pendants would be approximately 1-2cm long and supplied without chain. One side would have the recessed pattern of the token, which would then be painted with enamel-based paints and then sealed/varnished. Made from 100% recycled aluminium; hand-cast.
Keyrings/similar would be approximately the same size as dogtags. Same as above, but potential for Spiral Knights logo-name on the back, enamel paint by stencil/mask, varshined/sealed.
Designs for these would be the various tokens available ingame, and possibly the spiral knights horse-head.
Shields in miniature/keyring size would be dogtag or slightly larger in size. Either flat/painted or recessed/part-painted. Recycled aluminium again.
Lifesize shields would cost a fortune in postage, and would be made from foam matting. Cut, shaped and painted.
Useful details for all shields would need to be worked out later, as this is more a brainstorming and theoretical design stage, and without testing the processes involved it's hard to say how they'd end up being done.
All above would be reliant on OOO/Sega permission or license being granted, as well as interest in the products. If there is interest, I'll do my testing and contact them with the results.
Your main problem is delivery. I'd buy the smaller things if you were my neighbour :P
A lot of the little things are small and light enough to send by regular mail as packets. For larger items it'd be costly though =[
Also realised that I could try to mint some SK Crowns, but they don't really have much of a purpose...
However, I would also like to *try* to make Enchanted Candle candle-holders, both from some sort of plaster and from metal. However, I don't think my sculpting skills are up to that one yet. Would happily buy some of those if OOO had them made somewhere!
But due to Metacritic scores, companies decides to decline the idea of SK merchandise.
Metacritic is your source of problems.
It's impossible.
But i have an idea!
How about make a Mewkat plushies?
I want Konjuring Kat, dark ritual and all
A foam or plastic defender/aegis shield or Brandish/Leviathan blade. Think like the minecraft pick axe and sword toys.
Or a hoodie with "Spiral Knights" and a picture of Cradle from space or the gears of the clock works.
Shirts (what I want)
Key rings
Plushies
Shoes
Action Figures
Models (foam or otherwise)
Yeah?
Energy emblem keychain.
Trojan Keychain
Wisp Keychain
Kat Keychain
Trojan/Chroma/Wolver/AlphaWolver plush
Stickers of various mobs (including love puppy, Impostocube)
..theres SO MANY things you could market that I'd throw money for, personally. I'd love a trojan plush, or some kind of decal to put on some of my new sketchbooks.
...
Snarbolax plush also. Do it.
Is it just me, or the idea of the recent in-game Kat Hoods came from a post on this thread back from 2011 showing this: http://www.amazon.com/DeLux-Kitty-Black-Pilot-Animal/dp/B001QX7XB4
Anyways, I think T-Shirts and Stuffed Creatures would be the coolest and the most wanted "trinkets".
Rather tenuous connection I think; doubt it's related.
snipe plushie..... will definently buy it TOOO CUUUTE
Personally, I'd buy piggy-banks for a lot of the monsters. Like an impostocube bank, a gun/love puppy, Snarb. Though I suppose you could also make a nitronome shaped bank. or perhaps a Nitronome shaped lamp? Bouncy bombs? Though, Plush Snipe is a must.
i would so buy a vog/skolver hoodie with like wool or fur for the puffy look like the game coats and the hood could come all the way down your face with little holes like the cap and then matching sweatpants for the full on look!
also you should be able to buy and ship with ce since you already need to pay for it.(i'm thinking like 5k-10k per item). plus then you would have something to work for if your done with all the missions.
PS. this is like a great idea i would totally buy this stuff.
PPS. Also if they made wolver line pajamas would be wicked since i wear pajamas all over the house.
What should those piggy-banks be made of? How big should they be?
+1 on Figureprints.com, 3D printing is fantastic. If making your own character is too far-fetched, then perhaps a set of small 58mm characters, along with Vana or the Snarbolax? Perhaps a chess set, Knights as white and various mobs and bosses as black.
Other than that? I'm honestly not interested in standard merchandise.
I like the idea of a chess set... But which character is which piece? Would mechaknights be pawns, or would regular spiral knights be pawns? Which armours should they wear? Would it be better for the mob team to be themed?
Oh my goodness so many of these ideas are so perfect. The lovepuppy USB drive, the Snarbolax lamp, and oh gosh what I'd give for a mewkat/lovepuppy plush. <3
These need to happen!
I, Captainshockwave, have taken upon a large interest in this.. suggestion in the General Discussion.
Gremlin mender hoodies! Ironclaw and Darkfang mender hoodies would be pretty awesome, no?
Posters, personalized knight posters.. I would pay good money for one :o
@Tin-Foil-Hat
That can be arranged...
1) gremlin thongs would be the first thing I buy.
2) Any thing gremlin themed (necklase with gremlin smybole, shoes, ect) I would love imiditly
3) any thing funny or like a meme on a shirt. example, "The Core of the problem isn't wither or not it keeps the Clockworking, it is wither or not we should let it out." in an gremlin esk righting style.
4) wolver cap hat
5) wolver plushies and such.
6)ANY THING GREMLIN RELATED.
A lot of item/weapon descriptions are t-shirt-worthy, together with a stylised picture of said weapon/item, perhaps even with the basic stats displayed in an artsy manner...
Dude, this thread is dead.

Please remember to check da-.....wait....I like this thread....nevermind, good job! *thumbs up*
Ya, merchandise would be good, but I think the team needs to focus on more importand stuff now like bugfixes, and spend money (even if they must spend money) on better servers.

Ok, being perfectly serious, this game is perfect for merchandising. It features cute characters, has dedicated fans, and merchandising could spread this game life wildfire. I found Maplestory when I saw that adorable little mushroom on a poster in a comic book store, so why not have a devilite, knight, or one of the birds as a plush with a mist tank code? I think it's silly that this hasn't already happened....
P.S. I would TOTALLY wear a RL Stranger hat to Ohayocon, and probably school too
