TL;DR I'm looking for cool and classy gaming items that can fit in square 12"X12" shelves.
Here's the deal:
The company that I write for is growing very rapidly. I hope you'll forgive me for not wanting to disclose which website it is, but there's a chance many of you have stopped by. Pretty soon we'll be competing with GameSpot and IGN in terms of Facebook engagement and audience.
We have a studio that we use for filming. Interviews, shows, breaking news, podcast style chit-chat, you name it. It's currently used for the bigger site which owns us, but since the gaming side is expanding, we're setting up a separate set to start filming. We have several shelves to fill behind where we'll sit on camera, simple square shelves about a foot high. I'm not sure of the exact dimensions, but let's say 12" X 12".
My boss has asked me to send him a bunch of gaming related stuff to fit into those shelves that would be cool and classy. Stuff that the community would recognize, but not just a bunch of toys. I was so excited to basically get an excuse to go shopping for cool gaming shit, but the more I look, the more difficult it seems to actually find cool and classy stuff.
What kind of cool gaming loot do you have around your house GAF? What do you have on display that isn't childish? Would you mind telling me about some of your favorite things and helping us create an awesome studio backdrop? Once everything comes together I'll gladly revisit the thread to show off the final result and, who knows, you may see it online some time soon!
For reference: This is the first thing that came to mind for me, but I figure you guys probably own or know of much cooler stuff than I can even think of.
