Talk:Miniature Gray Giant

Note: For all other mini-pets, we do not have individual articles for each one. I suspect the Grey Giant will be a new monster added to the Beastiary following the release of Nightfall. To me, links to it should remain red until we have images or some sort of actual data to include. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 13:41, 10 September 2006 (CDT)

I have the PC Gamer issue (no. 153) in my possession. On page 115 is the following: ''It's almost tempting not to tell you about our November issue, just to make you squirm a little it's going to be so bery juicy and delicious. Mmm, anyone hungry...for details on the next Guild Wars game? For the exclusive Guild Wars mini pet you can only get from us.'' Along with this is a picture of the Grey Giant, a mummy wearing what looks to be bronze armor. Half it's face is an armored mask, while the other half is a mummified skeleton with a huge tusk.--&mdash; xis10al   14:00, 10 September 2006 (CDT)


 * I have the same issue Xis10al, but I agree w/Barek. Also the picture in the magazine is of concept art, not an ingame image, so the actual render may be somewhat different from that.  --Rainith 22:51, 10 September 2006 (CDT)

Image of miniature
The picture in use, where did it originate? Is it in a press release, the GW gallery (can't access from work), or a magazine's website? Please specify source of pre-release images, due to copyright concerns. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 14:42, 13 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Left a message on Phoenix's talk page asking him to comment here about it. --Rainith 16:08, 13 September 2006 (CDT)

Gray
Moved to Grey, unless this is it's actual name, anyone have a link? &mdash; Skuld 14:48, 13 September 2006 (CDT)
 * The US spelling of the color is Gray. I would expect ArenaNet to likely use the US spelling as thats what they've done with other names.  Still, many Americans are sloppy and use both interchangeably, so who knows what we'll actually see once its released. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 14:52, 13 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Huh, and i'm clueless lol. &mdash; Skuld 14:56, 13 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Gray and Grey are both used to spell the color's name. It's like armor and armour or center and centre. As Barek stated, the spelling Gray is more American, as you can see the differences in Gray and Grey. The correct spelling should have been in the PC Gamer (no. 153) preview for the November edition, since it states the name. Maybe since Rainith has issue 153, he can shed some light on the name. -Gares 15:47, 13 September 2006 (CDT)
 * I'll check when I get home, 90% sure it was spelled "Grey" in the mag. --Rainith 16:06, 13 September 2006 (CDT)
 * You also spelt "color" american style :) &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by 219.89.209.197 (talk &bull; contribs) 15:54, September 13, 2006 (CDT).
