No matter how many times you restart Mass Effect, you will always end up romancing this set of guns. Just look at them: they’re so emotive, compassionate, and satisfying to go BLAM BLAM with while swinging them around your living room.

This auction begins NOW so come by the livestream to join in!

UPDATE (7:13pm PT): Going, going, gone to dostrow_ for a new record-setting $20k! With these guns you can save the universe just like you’ve already saved the day for countless sick children. Thanks also to our generous donor Sam Skunkworks who crafted these replicas!

This set of 1:1 scale replicas accurately recreate the look of the M8 Avenger and M77 Paladin weapons from the Mass Effect trilogy. They could be perfect as part of a cosplay, or as a display piece. The largest measures 79cm x 31cm x 8cm and the smaller one is 30cm x 18cm x 4cm. Both are 3D printed in a mix of PLA plastic and photopolymer resin (over 300 hours total printing time). Both items include functioning LEDs to imitate the look of these weapons in the game. They are shipped in a hardened rifle case decorated with N7 livery, so it should reach you safely and without being intercepted by the Reapers!

Going once, going twice, going NOW! The Live Auction has begun, so join us on stream if you want to put in your bid for Totoro and Friends – 3D Felted Wall Art!

The figures, background and leaves are sculpted from ethically sourced wool and natural fibres.

The claws, noses and whiskers are handmade from apoxie clay and a tiny sculpted acorn is bursting from a hole in little Chu’s bag.

Measurements : 48cm (L) x 38cm (W) x 9cm (D)
Totoro stands at 24cm

Update (7:20pm PT): And gone! Congratulations to abjectadvect for giving Totoro and Friends a special new home, and thank you for helping us set us a new Desert Bus high watermark donation of $16,384! For the children!

We’re forty-five minutes away from a live auction here on Night Watch! This 3D felted Totoro and Friends wall art is already waiting at the bus stop, which historically we are really very super good at stopping at and totally not missing our stops at all. Yep.

Make sure you come by the Desert Bus stream at 7pm PT for a chance to save these sweet munchkin creatures from the rain!

COMING UP AT 10AM PST!!

The Road Quest Framed Cross Stitch by Sarah Serinde

LoadingReadyRun’s Road Quest series is full of gorgeous scenery, goofy shenanigans, and a lot of good good friendship. What better way to remember the show than with embroidered art of the iconic title graphic? Adorn your wall with this 15×11-inch cross stitch piece framed in masterwork acrylic, which is lightweight, shatterproof, and protected from UV rays. This project took about 220 hours to stitch, along with many more hours to perfect the pattern. That’s a lot of Road Quest rewatches!

Need a kick to get moving? Some hope when things are getting dark? Never fear, Space Mom is here!

This beautiful hand embroidered cross-stitch tribute to General Organa (which took over 200 hours to sew!) is up for our next live auction at 4PM PST!

To bid on this incredible item, please sign up for a donor account with a public username (make sure you also put your address in there so we know where to send it if you win), and link it to your Twitch username in the Desert Bus donor account sign-up!

All live auction bids happen in the chat, and you must bid at least $5.00 more than the previous bid.

Earlier this year, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild captured the hearts of the gaming community with a breathtaking adventure across the land of Hyrule. Inspired by the iconic cover of the game, this beautiful handcrafted cross-stitch was graciously donated to us by Sarah Overall and can be yours if you win tonight’s live auction!
