City of Heroes Memorabilia

[Arbiter]

I have a fair collection of City of Heroes memorabilia that I collected while working at Paragon Studio and I am interested in selling some of the extra items that I have on eBay.  Would it be acceptable to post links to items that I am selling here?  Are there other places that City of Heroes players would look if they are interested in items from the game?

Thanks so much and it is so exciting to see so much interest in the game even after so long!

I'd say former members of Paragon Studios are about as official a source of City of Heroes swag as it gets, so I'll allow it.

I've never met anyone in Titan Network in real life, so I'm stuck with Mills Lane as my mental image of eabrace now.

Miles Lane had quite the interesting career.  If you're bored, check him out on Wikipedia.

There are pictures of me in various threads around here wearing my mod hat.

But we're off topic here.  Go!  Hunt!  Bid on merch!

Looking forward to seeing what else you have, Arbiter !

I don't suppose you have any code that enables us to make the old Hero Registration cards, hmmm?  :-)

Today's item is somewhat unique.  A Paragon Studios Original iPad 1 Silicone Rubber Cover

These covers were originally given to members of the Paragon Studios team and were not available to the general public.  This rubber cover for the original iPad 1 has the Paragon Studio Star logo on the back side in white on a black back ground.   The logo is made from embedded white rubber and is not a sticker or printed on.  The soft cover protects the back and sides of the device but does not cover the front screen.  This item is still in the original plastic wrapping and has never been used.

Two more items up for sale today:

A set of four City of Heroes Bumper Stickers originally printed to advertise the game City of Heroes at various conventions.  These items are from before the split of Cryptic Studios and NCSoft and the formation of Paragon Studios and before the release of City of Villains.  This set contains four different slogans as well as the CityOfHeroes.com url and the logos for both Cryptic Studios and NCSoft.

Paragon Studios City of Heroes License Plate Frame metal frame with custom Paragon Studios and City of Heroes / City of Villains heavy plastic stickers customizing this item.  The frame is still in the original plastic bag that it came in, although the bag is open at one end.   The stickers appear to still be strongly adhered to the metal, but in some places the edges of the stickers are lifting off of the metal backing.

New item for today:

A rare collector's item, the City of Villains 8oz Zippo Hip Flask is a solid metal hip flask customized with the Arachnos spider logo and the name City of Villains etched into the surface.  These flasks were originally released as promotional items at the City of Villains press launch event on Alcatraz island in San Francisco bay.  The press kits from that event each contained one of these items, so they were never sold as official items, but were available to members of the media who attended the launch party.

Inside, the first section are several sets of calendars including a year calendar, a month by month calendar and a week by week calendar.

City of Villains Black and Maroon Short Arachnos Cape

City of Villains Black and Maroon Short Arachnos Cape is made from 100% polyester and dyed black with a maroon Arachnos symbol on the back. Its size is intended to be comparable to the short cape length found in-game.

The Arachnos cape was available to players through conventions and a few contests. Some advertisement kits given out to promote the upcoming release of City of Villains contained the cape, as well. The kits were given mostly to press and certain stores, but players were able to sign up on the marketing company's web site in limited quantities to receive the promotional kits in an attempt to promote viral advertising for the game.

I bought this when it came out and still have it.

Its a great book to have to remember the early game before all the changes and even Icon. Half the zones were not in the game yet, powersets had some quite different powers and level order of getting them.

Great nostalgia.
