Attendees who ordered the <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/04/24/quakecon-2012-pre-registration-opens-wednesday-bonuses-announce/">QuakeCon Swag Pack</a> will receive a figurine featuring the iconic Quake logo.<br /><br />Symbiote has also announced that it has acquired the rights to produce toys based on Bethesda franchises, the first of which will be the Dragonborn from <a href="http://joystiq.com/game/skyrim"><em>Skyrim</em></a>. That is to say the dude on the <em>Skyrim</em> box (as seen in the art above), not <em>your</em> Dragonborn. The figure is available for pre-order now at $9.99 and will ship later this month. Pre-orders will also be taken during QuakeCon this week at Symbiote's booth.<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/symbiote-quakecon-and-bethesda-vinyl-toys/">Symbiote QuakeCon and Bethesda Vinyl Toys</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/symbiote-quakecon-and-bethesda-vinyl-toys/#5186777"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/08/quakecon-symbiote_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/symbiote-quakecon-and-bethesda-vinyl-toys/#5186776"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/08/dragonborn-symbiote-art_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/08/01/symbiote-studios-making-bethesda-figurines-bringing-them-to-qua/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Symbiote Studios making Bethesda figurines, bringing them to QuakeCon</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/08/01/symbiote-studios-making-bethesda-figurines-bringing-them-to-qua/">Symbiote Studios making Bethesda figurines, bringing them to QuakeCon</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Wed, 01 Aug 2012 20:00:00 EST.

We feel that the upcoming Activision web-slinging simulator, <em><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/search/?q=Spider-Man%3A%20Web%20of%20Shadows">Spider-Man: Web of Shadows</a></em>, depicts a much more accurate account of the side-effects of fusion with tar-like alien lifeforms: A widening of the eyes, an elongation of the teeth, and tendrils -- <em>oh, so very many tendrils</em>.<br /><br />The <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/Joystiq/videos/217/">launch trailer for the aforementioned title</a>, posted above, gives us a good sampling of the symbiotic adversaries we'll be pummeling come <em>Web of Shadows</em>' October 21 release date -- and with a classy touch of <em>Moonlight Sonata</em> to boot. We highly suggest checking it out -- perhaps you'll find some place in your heart that hasn't eternally sworn off games featuring the titular, charismatic wall-crawler.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/10/11/spider-man-web-of-shadows-launch-trailer-is-symbio-tastic/">Spider-Man: Web of Shadows launch trailer is symbio-tastic</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Sat, 11 Oct 2008 21:00:00 EST.
