If I want to spruce up an office or some other room with a few adventure game things, what nice adventure game-related decorations are there? (Posters, miniatures, props, papercraft, Lego models, dioramas, replicas, etc.) What would be really cool to have (even if it doesn't exist)?
- An animatronic Broom Alien from Zak McKraken.
- A Broken Sword
- A wooden cup with the words "I chose... WISELY!" on it
- A t-shirt that reads "My friends went to Daventry, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt that came with a free eternal curse on my family"
- A cactus named Chuck
- A plastic machine gun with a roll of empty lipstick holders next to it
- A purple megalomanic tentacle
- A rubber chicken with a pulley in it
Have you checked out these posters (http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=5328) Snarky? They're beautiful (if mostly Lucasarts based).
There may be some cool papercraft around you could print and fold up for some cheap decorative flair on the corner of a shelf or something.
Also, a rubber chicken that you've put a pulley in the middle of (I think Grundislav has one of these?)
Adventure horror set :D
- Sinister wooden idol!
- Human skull called Murray.
- A voodoo doll.
I have a voodoo doll that is actually a fridge magnet. It's a "regular" voodoo doll, but it has a magnet glued to the back. We don't keep it on the fridge though, it's kind of creepy.

A frame cover for the monitor in the style of a game with some of the famous characters to be seen (best, if a leg or arm reaches out in “real†to be able to hold a note or pen),
a big calendar with screenshots (quoting a running gag) from best games,
“edge-seaters†(don't know, if this is the term in english for those figurines that can be placed at every edge (http://www.elfenshop.ch/contents/media/l_kantensitzer_kobolde.jpg))
and of course the mousepad, the frame of the blotting pad and the notepads/post-it's could be used for decorating details of adventure games (laugh)
Well, not all of it at once - would be "a bit" too much - but some of those would be really (http://www.smileyvault.com/albums/userpics/12962/fantastic.gif)
Yeah, invest in some papercraft. It's a great hobby.

Thanks 304, those posters are neat!
We have a purple tentacle papercraft in the office, but I think he needs some friends.
The best thing of all would be some AGS-related stuff (beyond just a blue cup).

I think it would be an awesome idea to include something like this in a future AGS Bake sale. :)
I think it would be cool to take a game background, print it, then print copies of all the objects and sprites separately, mount them on foamcore or craft wood, and arrange them at different depths in a shadowbox, creating a 3D version of whatever game you choose.
