RPG Sodas

[Prak]

Jones soda has created a line of D&D sodas (http://www.toplessrobot.com/2009/09/dungeons_dragons_the_sodas.php), with flavours including:
Potion of Healing
Sneak Attack
Bigby's Crushing Thirst Destroyer
Dwarven Draught
Eldritch Blast
Illithid Brain Juice


If you order a case, you also get a Drow Assassin mini.

the Magic the Gathering sodas didn't particularly grab me by the wallet, but these... I may have to get a case of these...

[littlequietguy]

Give as tribute to DM?

[SurlySeraph]

OK, I think I love Jones Soda now, despite their pretentious tendencies.

[Alteran]

Although I'm not going to buy this, I'm very curious about what "Sneak Attack" would taste like.

Carbonated Death.

[Mando Knight]

I want a couple of cases of this stuff now. Not for the mini... but so I can offer a drink of Dwarven Draught and Illithid Brain juice.

what flavors are they actually?

[Cobra_Ikari]

what flavors are they actually?

Purple, brown, clear, green, and red.

Soda flavors are more colors than they are anything in the natural world. >.<

[Catch]

It's probably the same formula used for the Final Fantasy "potion."

Or the mega man drink.

Guessing based on the flavors list on their site
Purple - Illithid Brain Juice - Grape
brown - Bigby's - Cola
other brown - Dwarven - Root Beer or Cola
clear - Sneak Attack - Cream Soda
green - Eldritch - Green Apple (green apple soda? seriously?)
red - Healing - Strawberry lime (why they couldn't make it the black cherry, I don't know)

As for buying it, probably not. It looks like you can only get variety packs and I'm not a big fan of two of the flavors, meaning 1/3 of my order would be going to waste.

I've enjoyed their rather odd assortment of holiday offerings (Candy corn soda was actually quite tasty), so I may have to try these.

ugh... If I still had the remaining mini can of that stuff I'd offer to send it to you... it tasted like carbonated maple syrup...

[Player_Zero]

Make your own Nuka Cola bottles. (http://fc07.deviantart.com/fs41/f/2009/011/e/6/Nuka_Cola_Quantum_by_Whatpayne.jpg)

Get irradiated.

Profit.

[Tharivol123]

Awesome, I may have to find some of that stuff now.

[Prak]

I caution you, Thar, I'm a man who likes his maple syrup. This was not a good thing.

[Kobold-Bard]

Dear Sweet Pelor I want these. I have never heard of the company, but the second I get my Student Loan these are the first thing I'm buying (yes, I'm the kind of impulsive person these people make their living off).

Thank you for bringing these to my attention :smallbiggrin:

[Totally Guy]

This reminds me of a time I went to an anime convention with £400 in my pocket and one rule in my head. That rule was "Don't buy anything that isn't worthy of being owned by me".

I left that convention with £400 in my pocket.

Just geekifying something it doesn't mean it's good. In fact it makes me downright suspicious.

[Agamid]

It's probably the same formula used for the Final Fantasy "potion."

oh my lordy lord. i think my heart just stopped beating. i must own this.

[Trobby]

What, seriously? A Final Fantasy XII potion? I mean, I could see buying a Final Fantasy Potion, but slapping the XII on there just screams "Product Placement".

And while those DnD sodas look cool, they're probably going to be fairly generic flavors...not that I would reject one on principle, mind you. I'd probably go for the Dwarven Draught. Just not something I would jump to my wallet for.

[Froogleyboy]

I love Jones sodas! I must have these

[Gullara]

Sounds pretty cool now what are the chances I can find it in the town I live

[Pyrian]

I was really hoping RPG stood for "Rocket Powered Grenade". :smallannoyed:

[Eon]

that is awesome

[Erloas]

I was thinking that too. Shake them up and throw them and watch them explode. That is a soda I would buy.

Oh well... guess I'll have to just make some explode with a .44 magnum, that should be good enough. I'm purchasing one later today, the .44 Magnum

[Mystic Muse]

do they still make the mega man soda?

[littlebottom]

oh my lordy lord. i think my heart just stopped beating. i must own this.

same thing i said first time i saw it, then i saw that they were selling them in limited edition FF7 cans, with different characters on each, at that moment i passed out :smallbiggrin:

[littlequietguy]

do they still make the mega man soda?

I'm pretty sure it is only in Japan. :smallfrown:

[EleventhHour]

Yet again, Newfoundland retains the truely original flavours. Like Pineapple. :smallwink:

[SDF]

Reasons I would buy this:

This. Glug speaks wisdom. It is well known that fanbois will buy any old shoite with a logo on it (heck, Marvel, DC, Square/Enix and Disney live on this!).

Oh, and they all taste of pure brand extension mixed with a delicate infusion of marketing synergy.

D&D sneakers. D&D sodas. And I thought Uncle Gary had signed off on some crap.

[afroakuma]

what flavors are they actually?

Given that it's Jones, they probably went out of their way to make them taste like Exactly What It Says On The Bottle.

I've had some nasssssty Jones Soda before. :smallyuk:

[RabbitHoleLost]

You want to know what geeky thing is nasty, but effective to its purpose?

It literally smells like feet and tastes worst, but, damn, it has the energy content of three Redbulls in one mouthful (and that's all that's in that little bottle).

I would buy them because I generally like Jones soda anyway. It would just be fun to have, altho they are a bit expensive...

Not to mention that they cost, what, $5 a bottle?

If you mix one of these, and one of those blue mana potions...

...do you get a yellow rejuv? =D

[CMOTDibbler]

Wow... That's hilarious. I'll probably get some, just for the novelty.

That is awesomely cool I wish I had one:smallcool:

Rejuvenation potions are purple, Cobes, not yellow.

...we're talking Diablo, yes?

[Katana_Geldar]

They were yellow in the first Diablo game.

It would be loathe to have a topic like this and not bring up this soda. *Warning, link contents are NSFW, but still PG-13*

This. (http://www.tentaclegrape.com/)

I don't know whether to be proud, or ashamed to be a part of this culture. #<.<#
