Gearbox Software's Randy Pitchford updated his .plan with a little pre-order sales pitch for Gearbox' upcoming Half-Life add-on Opposing Force. Here's a chunk of the update that talks of the cool in store displays they've got:

Gearbox is within days (hours?) of "Release Candidate 1" for Half-Life: Opposing Force. But, that's not the cool news. The cool news is that Brian's been working with the Sierra marketing and art dudes on a Corporal Adrian Shephard stand-up/cut-out display for the stores.

It's planned to have an animated Pipe Wrench that he brandishes... The whole thing is supposed to run off of solar power. It sounds very cool.

I'm going to try to get a dozen of them or so to set up in the hallway to disturb the neighbors in the building (we're going to need their office space soon). If you're a vendor who's going to get one for your OpFor sales display, don't promise it out to your cousin, I'll buy the damn thing from ya!
