Now I know it isnt the coke shield if thats what your thinking, cause this is the coke shield:
Thanks to niZmo for the Screenshot of that.

Oh boy..it's prolly a prize for the tournament thing..i just hope that ANet doesnt get into more trouble with favoring the koreans than they did with the coke shield. I remember alot of people were mad about that.

I dunno, but I don't want one if it's going to impale my head on it like that. :)
Besides, it looks like he's carrying a giant cockroach.

I heard some observers saying that these where prizes in a coke or pepsi sponsored comp for the opening of the korean or japanise servers, dont know if this is true but i've seen them in PvP as well.

Well as long as they are balanced unlike the other shields there wont be a problem..but if they are overpowered then ANet will prolly face criticism for favoring korea again..they kind of do but you know :P

Looks like a spider to me, seeing as it has eight legs and some form of mandibles or fangs.

Yes that shield is a reward to that guild only. It is VERY VERY cool. Its not a pre-order or any other type of shield, just a unique shield that that guild gets to have.

Now now, the Koreans doesn't get good stuff. Granted the Coke shield does look bad ass, there is a reason they got it and we didn't. As the rest of the world has pre-order items, they did not. As that is why ANet and Coke Korea teamed up for the special promo item. Which I understand completely, and is totally fair in my opinion.

Well the reason that people got upset over the coke shield was because it was like a shield version of a perfect HoD sword. So combined with HoD swords it was pretty bad. I remember at one point even Gaile said that the shields were overpowered and appologized for it.

I'd like a promotional skill for the Dutch
Molten Cheese Blast (Elementalist elite):
You melt 2-4 pieces of Maaslander kaas and shoot it to target foe and all foe in the area. They all suffer from Dutchiness and Burning for 5-12 seconds.
Contest prize from Maaslander kaas.
Or whe could just have an European shield; with teh Stars on them n such.
Those Koreans are spoiled. Atleast whe can't make names that noone understands (Notice the Swastika symbol some koreans have in their names)

the Canthan Targe shield was a Best Buy pre-order shield. I like mine.
It looks like Captain America's shield.

This just as an FYI for anyone that doesn't know, so they don't get offended:
| QUOTE | | Referred to as manji gamae in Japanese, it is important to emphasize that this movement has nothing at all to do with the swastika symbol used by the German Nazi Party. First, the swastika kanji used to write the term in Japanese is reversed from that used by the Nazis. Second, the use of that particular kanji was well established in Japan in the centuries before the 1900s. That being said, I believe it should be recognized that this a sensitive issue. There is no need to use symbols or terms that will offend the vast majority of the population. With that in mind, this is one of the rare techniques that I do not use the commonly accepted English term. I simply refer to the posture using the Japanese term and explain that it is a high inside block to the rear combined with a low block to the front. |
That quote is from here.

Yes, Gaile has said the same thing in many of her recent visits.
