JCapps Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Remember the spycrab? Well the same person made all of these other great stuffz: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197982405877/myworkshopfiles/?section=merchandise Look! You can have a max head like Puddington!These of course are not for sale yet as there they are not accepted merchandise. You can help change that though! Every like/favorite helps these items move 1 step closer to the valve store! Why are you endorsing this person? How did you even find out about this? Besides the fact that having IRL game goodies is awesome, there is another reason. If you took a look at the list of items already, you probably know exactly what I'm talking about already. Indeed, the same person that made all this great stuff made the same houwar that you see in my profile picture, so I have no reason not to support her. c: Since Valve is...Valve...they will most likely have a promo item to go with these. So then, you can have a Genuine Max head or a Genuine Houwar! ..... ..... ..... Uh oh...For those who are on the same page with me, you'll know the reason for the "Uh oh." This is the only issue. To those who understand, is there a better solution? Leave a suggestion if you have any. It would be much appreciated. Side notes: -I didn't know which forum to put this in, since it has to do with tf2/dota 2 and actual merchandise. -That is not me in the houwar picture. I believe that is her husband. -Saving spycrabs still helps the cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedarium Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 thanks for giving me early notice of dis topic. Also, genuine max heads and genuine houwars are what made me go O_0. Valve will probrably do something else, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gent♥ Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 I believe this person has an Etsy store, while we're waiting for them to go official?I know I've seen that max online before somewhere, and not just in Karam's old avatar :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All right, list em now. strange Grenade launcher Headshot kills Killstreak kits. EQUALIZER PAIN TRAIN SYDNEY SLEEPER Valve decides on whether or not they are going to re-release an item, not the virtual economy. Besides, all they would need to do is make them non tradeable and non giftable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, all they would need to do is make them non tradeable and non giftable. None of those are promos. Even if they make it untradable/ungiftwrappable, why pay $110 for a max head when you can just buy a real one and a virtual one for, let's say, $40? For those who want a max head just for looks, then this is a much cheaper alternative, putting a good chunk of max head sellers at risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gent♥ Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Valve has never redistributed promos, they appear to understand quite what a crime against the economy that would be.My guess would be that these won't come with promos. Contributors are designing their own, from what I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That pretty much made the luger and big kill not "pure" anymore. Not including a promo would seem to be the best idea, but with things like the action figures getting promos, not giving a promo with these items seems a bit odd.

The Lugermorph is the ONLY exception to the rule. The action figures weren't community submitted, they're inherently Valve's merchandise, so Valve has no issue putting MORE of their own merchandise with it. But with community submissions, they're likely to be a little more protective of their property, I would think. But, as you say, it remains to be seen. I hope for you and your HOUWAR's sake I'm right XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCapps Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 I hope they would be protective. If more exceptions were made, who knows what might come next... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
