No, I came just around the time he joined up actually.
And no, I'm not saying one shouldn't spend their money if they have it, but this is a close-knit community and I would have been gracious enough to atleast left some stuff for my friends as opposed to devouring everything in my wake.

Materialism in general is bad, but is one movie poster, one vile of gabbit juice too much to fuckin ask? Couldn't you have at least left that much behind, Cullen? You fucking locust.

I got a movie poster!

For what it's worth, I've met Lorne and I have no merch other than what I was able to outbid Cullen (and FG) for. Didn't even end up with an autograph.

And, yes, I've got no issues with Cullen.

So basically Nate what you're saying is you have met Lorne and do have merchandise...
Great defense!

Cullen bought all my shit for the tune of around $1100. Movie posters, stickers, patches, stacks of what was left of OWI's Christmas cards and envelopes which I ended up with, T shirts, English and French promotional folders for AO and AE with slides, and on and on.

This was before I came back to OWF, and had things been different, I'd have rather given the stuff away to my friends here that wanted it.

I have no problem with Cullen. I spoke with him on the phone for a good two and a half hours one day; he'd asked if he could call me once he found out who I was. He's a very passionate fan indeed. Certainly not unworthy of the merchandise. He was very modest and certainly likeable.

This is just how the world works guys- the big bucks get what they want. If you don't like it, then change it, and stop complaining.

1,100? That kid must have been born in segments.

Once again I'm inadvertently made to look like a fool for being passionate.

No, my point was that correlation does not imply causation.

In the awards thread, where you have to vote for some one who would make a good mod, I recall voting for Cullen (2007). At the time I was a yougen and wasn't buying stuff off ebay and he was quite nice to me. I wasn't aware of he's lust for (Oddworld) treasure.

I take it there was a lot of stuff back then? The only things left on eBay are a Abe's Exoddus Drawing and a clearly fake Soul Storm Brewery hat.

Anyway, Cullen does sound like a bit of a ass, but if we had that amount of money, i'm sure we would do the same.

He seemed very nice. I don't remember that much of him, but he added me on MSN, I'm not sure whether he's still on there, I'll have to check.

I wondered why there was hardly any Oddworld merch on eBay. I don't agree with what he did, sounds a little selfish to me. It may sound like I'm being jealous, but I wish he'd have just left some for other people.

I recall him outbidding me on an AE whoopee cushion.

That's horrible. What sort of smug son of a bitch would do such a thing?

While I got my games autographed, I got no merch from Lorne. The reason I didn't point this out is because, after reading SS's post carefully, he didn't actually say there was a causal relationship. Virtually all my merch was bought on eBay, and I lost loads of stuff to Cullen.

I don't get it.

And the drawing isn't clearly fake?

EDIT: fuck sake. didn't see the second page.

Yeah Josh, that drawing is just a figment of your insane imagination. Causation correlation, and... something.

Erm, as in he must have multiple birthdays giving him extra money/gifts. It was a really bad attempt at humor.

I got it.

But only because you and I tend to like the same terrible jokes.

:tard:

Cullen tricked me into liking him, he has send me stickers of GTA3 and a Rayman earring he got in a whole E3 swag package just to get a AE bottle opener. :p

So the guy likes to share, just not when it comes to Oddworld Stuff.

Seriously I'm not sure I'd let the occasion pass if I knew I could afford to buy as much Oddworld stuff as him.

Wow, so now that's two "Cullens" that are hated by the Oddworld Forum crew (Including the one from Twilight). I can't see much merchandise on ebay now besides a personalized Abe mug (which is probably by a guy who keeps making them).

So from what I read I'm the only one on here that would have left some merchandise behind?
Jeez, you're all a bunch of selfish bastards. :p

If I got a bunch of oddworld merchandise, I'd be sure to share them (for a small price!) ;)

Well I wouldn't buy all the Gabbit juice and MO cans I could find, but if there's an item I don't have yet I'm not sure I'd let it there...

I certainly wouldn't buy multiple copies of the same item, I'd be just as happy with one.

This^

I would only take what I wanted. Sculptures (depends what creature, and probably only a couple), clothing, another poster, maybe one of those fancy cards.

Eh, all I want is a life-size Gabbit. Or a real life Lorne.

The only life-sized Gabbit that wasn't a cardstock promotional stand was that hideous fiberglass atrocity Cullen bought, and I'm pretty sure they only made a handful of those.

Really though, if anyone has Gabbit juice, I will gladly pay over 20 bucks for it. I have an affinity for it's label.

What is this Gabbit juice? Is it tasty?

From what I've heard, its absolutely not tasty. But I like the label and the concept, and I certainly have no intention of breaking the seal.

I was expecting cans of Zap! or some shit like that. Not some small tube.

I find the test-tube look much cooler than if it was a can. They already had promotional MO cans that, I think, held hard candy.

Eh, drinking it would be pointless anyway. That stuff expired LONG AGO.

Can anyone tell me what it did taste like when it was still edible?

All the Gabbit Juice was sour watermelon. It's not that it tasted bad, it was just like an over-done Jolly Rancher.

For the record I don't have any MO can or Gabbit juice either, so if anyone has them multiple times I'd be interested in buying one of each.

I actually had to go check my drawer on seeing that photo to see whether I own a vial of gabbit juice. I don't - but I do have pretty much everything else in that photo (t-shirt and magazine excluded). I suspect that my haul might have come from Sapphire's photographed collection there.

It'd be strongly apreciated if some one poted a picture of the Munch Can. I think OANST has one. Or did he sell it to Cullen?

Yes to both questions.

Someone hasn't been paying attention.
