Word to the wise BTW, if you sit down with some friends to play with one of these and you keep pushing the thing to freak people out it's crucial to know when to stop cos if and when they find out it was you all along, you WILL get punched. Trust me on this ;).
(I know it's nearly a week later but I suppose there's no chance this could've been up since April 1st ?)

Eh, it may be a tenuous connection...but it fits the attitude of the show for me, at least. I must have this.

*thinks about all the other places her money could go...*
*wonders how you get a job thinking up stuff like this.*
*remembers that it's probably a marketing job and decides to skip it this go 'round...*

BWAHAHAHAHA! Brilliant.

For ultra dorks (I can say that as I do have the scythe among other ultra dork pieces of my own.)
As far as ouija bords go, they do creep me out but then I just think of Morrissey in the woods singing and then everything isn't quite so bad.
It kinda reminds me of Darth Potato; it has nothing actually to do with the property but its still some how perfectly appropriate.
I approve.

The licensing people at 20th Century Fox if she had any sense :p. I mean bloody hell, I've seen some weird and wonderful merchandising in my time (chocolate bars, Spike panties) but this really does take the biscuit.

Spike panties
Oh, I wish I thought you were joking there.
Sunfire | April 07, 16:44 CET
There should have been Spike chocolate edible panties. I think.

I'd buy it, but since it IS a 'Conversations with Dead People' board, I hold grave fears that the First will try to use it to convince me to top myself. Or possibly, take over the world.
And he'll use the form of my dead, lesbian, witchy lover to make it more convincing.

Also, I'm pretty certain there should be an image of Giles, looking over his glasses and clucking like a chicken to voice his disappointment in any ouiji dabbling.

If I need an excuse, well, I'm saving them in case I run out of bookmarks.
The Willow bar had the nicest flavour, as I recall...
Furball | April 07, 17:33 CET
Chocolate-wise...did Willow taste like strawberries, or was Rack lying?
GreatMuppetyOdin | April 07, 18:17 CET
A Rack candy bar would have tasted like lies and licorice.

Since the Ouija time of my life segued nicely into the Buffy side, I would ADORE one of these boards for just about a bajillion reasons. I've actually been in the market for a nice, wood, handmade "spirit board" and I'm not even at all one of those occulty people. I just have very fond memories of the days I spent at eleven whittling stakes, stringing up garlic, and sending my sleepover friends screaming from the room by moving the dial.
I have to have this, naturally. I love it. I think the design kicks ass. And dark horse released a really nice "hellboy" ouija awhile back (solid wood WITH case) that had all the ouija collectors' attention. If only they would have gone all out for the Buffy board... However my old PB board has long since lost its dial, so consider this board definitely mine. I need it.

And more importantly, who wrote it? And who drew-ded it?
I see it now, tucked away under the board, and a comic instruction sheet could be amusant - but what does it all mean?
I'm already entertained by it.

I wonder if this is going to turn a bunch of Buffy fans into Dark Willows.

Even more pressing though - Darth Potato? Spike panties? How did I miss these things? Were they his or hers?

When will they market the Innocence Rocket Launcher?
malcolm | April 08, 14:31 CET
Why are they even associated "Conversations with Dead People" to a ouija board? Alright, I get the title, but wouldn't be more appropriate to just say "Buffy" in general? They didn't use ouija boards in CWDP... ?
