Mr T has teamed up with Blizzard Entertainment to promote World of Warcraft once more, this time advertising an in-game "Mohawk Grenade".
"You gotta choice, Jack. You can watch Mr. T's new TV commercial???or you can HURT." Mr. T, outraged that any fools would doubt his hacking skills, has returned to World of Warcraft to show off his latest invention in a series of nationally televised ads. Watch them here first at Blizzard's YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/worldofwarcraft) or click to Learn more ( http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/faq/mohawkgrenade.xml ) about the mohawk grenade and how you can claim your own in-game.
Mr T appears in the advert, wearing a Jinx Murloc T-Shirt, to promote his 'latest invention'. The grenades are collected from new NPCs stationed outside starter zones in WoW. When thrown at another player's character, a Night Elf Mohawk head appears on that character.
The Night Elf Mohawk is a hairstyle that was added to the game by popular demand after the first Mr T TV advertisement in 2007. William Shatner appeared in a WoW advert around the same time, with Verne Troyer and Ozzy Osbourne joining the list of celebrities to back WoW later on. Ads in other languages were also made; Jean Claude Van Damme, Willy Toledo and Alexandre Astier starred in French and Spanish ones, respectively.
The grenades, which will be free to pick up, are available in North America immediately. Players in Europe and Korea will see the special NPCs appear from 24 November.
The advert, seen below, will only show in North America. You can read the FAQ here.
Q. What is the Mohawk Grenade?
A. The Mohawk Grenade is Mr. T's latest invention: an in-game item that, when hurled at another character, gives everyone within the blast radius an instant T-riffic haircut. Don't worry, you and your friends will look gooooood.
Q. Where do I get it?
A. Quit your jibber-jabber and claim your Mohawk Grenades from any of the Night Elf Mohawk NPCs camped outside every starting zone.
Q. What regions are eligible to claim the Mohawk Grenade?
A. North America, Europe and Korea.
Q. Is this a permanent item?
A. Each Mohawk Grenade has five charges before exhausting its power, and you're welcome to claim another once the charges are gone.
Q. How long will the Mohawk Grenade be available in-game?
A. Claim Mohawk Grenades starting November 16th in North America and November 24th in Europe and Korea. They'll be available until... well, until the Night Elf Mohawk decides his work is done.
