I'm looking for things to add to my pet Tak's treasure chest and need some ideas! Tak is from King's books Desperation and the Regulators. Right now, his treasure has items related to those books, to his minion Blaine (also a King character), and to King in general. His current treasure can be seen on his profile here: http://subeta.net/petinfo.php?petid=3367958 (Sorry the profile is a mess; Subeta apparently changed the font used for the pet's name, so I need to redo the profile -X-; )

I have these King-related items on my wishlist:

Are there other King tribute items, or items that would suit a fanpet (or Tak based on his story on his profile or on the books)?

pinging you of course :D

The (carrie) is the only one that's coming to mind at the moment, but I'll keep digging! I could've sworn we had some Pet Sematary things, but I might just be thinking of unrelated tomstone-y stuff :P Tak is awesome, it's a shame we don't have more SK specific stuff for you to work with!

Ooh thanks for that recommendation! I didn't know about that item :D Tak can feel pretty when he wears it XD I'll poke around with the cemetery type items and see if I can find some that would fit too.

@ LoftyBalloon Glad I could help you beautify him a bit xD here's some graveyardy stuff that might be fitting, I'll be able to have a better look later when I've got some more free time ^^ * * *also comes in serpent, rat and fish!

for general Tak stuff, maybe: et al, because they kind of remind me of the can tahs? especially the turtle, but that's more of a Father Callahan thing than a Tak thing. OTL

See the turtle of enormous girth, on his shell he holds the earth..

I'm going to have to get that turtle.

@ LoftyBalloon Omg you found a billy bumbler! Oy!! That's way more than I've come across. Of course, when I do a google search, I usually get side-tracked in pics and references and fan art on the web. I'm working towards making a Dark Tower picture for my profile background.

[edit] Just found these: and my personal favorite -->

Ooh thanks! The Skeletal Serpent and Rat would be good since those are can tah animals... and I love those little figurines! And yeah, the turtle is such a big part of IT and the DT series, Tak probably needs it too.

TAK: *grumbles something about not serving the $&%ing Beam

Shush, dear.

Yes I NEED Oy!! I wish I knew which staff member added all the DT items ❤️ You know about this, right? Tak already has the revolver.

Ooh I just thought about mining items to represent the China Pit! runs off to search

Nope, didn't see the revolver. :( I picked up the set of twin pistols on a quest which reminded me of the Gunslinger in the beginning, and never thought to search for more.

I found this thread, which has some really neat reference items to so many things, but very little related to SK.

I don't remember much at all about Desperation since it's been well over a decade since I read it. Actually, I remember more about IT since it scared the crap out of me (for 3 nights I had to leave my light on, lol), but I know it's one I'm going to re-read. :D I'm almost finished (again) w/ the 7th DT book, and then I'm reading the latest of the DT books, then on to re-reading Insomnia (b/c it's heavily referenced in the last DT book), and then back to Desperation.

This thread is making me add so many more items to my WL. 😸

oooh, I didn't know about the carved items! I should keep an eye out for one of those turtles for my Roland pet :o

gosh, let's see...people have covered all the direct King tribute items that I know of. What about some kind of action figure to represent Seth's toys in The Regulators? might work. As for mining items, perhaps ?

THAT SIGNATURE ❤ You know, I can't decide if the Gunslingers Revolver is actually a DT item or not. I thought so, but when it was released someone said they thought it was inspired by "Rango". Haha.

@ Sitar OMG your Roland fan pet is awesome! Love his treasure :D If you want another King friend for him, he can be friends with Tak... but then, I can understand if that would mess things up. I really don't think those two would get along if they were in the same book!

I didn't think about action figures for the Regulators toys! Also toy cars would work. I'm working on a fanfic about Tak and Blaine, so more ideas will probably come to me ❤️

Ha, I just assumed the Gunslingers Revolver was DT based. I figured it was a book drive item like the other DT things, but now I see it's not. There was a Rango plushie released with that collection, so... oh well. To me, it's Roland's XD Tak can just laugh at me if it's really Rango's.

EDIT: Hahaha I just added this:

That creepy bear bobblehead in Collie's cop car...

Ooh ! I just now got around to looking at The Gunslinger. LOVE it! <3 You and have excellent SK tribute pets.

I can't wait to get around to my Ka-tet which is going to be 3 of my pets. The third one I adopted out awhile back and have just been waiting for the right time to add the last one.

Looks like you've been doing pretty well finding items that match. 😸 And b/c of you and , I've found some great items to add to my WL.

thank you! I want him to be kind of a magnum opus fanpet. Haha. Looking specifically for Dark Tower pet friends, I'm afraid, but I'll keep Tak in mind for any future King tributes. Love the idea, by the way :D And loool good call on the creepy bear.

thanks so much!! I must say, I'm hella proud of his TC. He's almost done, need to find an overlay artist. Honestly I'm not 100% sold on the story I wrote him, but we'll see :P oooh, can Gunslinger be "friends" with your pets? It's dang hard to find relevant ones scattered about the site. I found him a Jake and an Cuthbert, but nobody else so far.

@ Sitar I noticed Jake's owner's account is up for grabs on November 11, so you could snag that name for your own pet if you wanted. That person also had Gunslinger, Lady of the Shadows, and The Prisoner. (I'm sort of tempted with Lady of the Shadows since my real name is Susanna... hehe.)

Also, The Gunslinger's background image and overlay art gets blocked by AdBlock Plus for me. I'm not sure why, but AdBlock may block stuff hosted on imgur?

EDIT: Okay, I finished fixing up Tak's profile and added a bunch of the items ^X^ Now I just have to wait until I can buy more MKBs and get the sP for the pricier wishlist items! Thanks for the help, y'all! Now I just have... all my other pets to finish -X-;
