Diablo 3 Invaded by Unicorns and Marshmallows

First it was the rainbows...then the Carebears...now this?

I know what you're thinking – the title doesn't make any sense, but this is very serious business. Fantasy is the theme of Diablo, so why can't the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man make an appearance, or a Unicorn that “dispenses” rainbows as a weapon? These are the "fantasies" of geeks and gamers around the world all rolled in to one! Okay, maybe the Unicorns are pushing it, but I hear if you drink their blood you live forever. Look forward to some awesome bonuses by wiping out armies of baddies with a rainbow burst death-ray, and roast some marshmallows while you're at it!

It may be a farce, but it's pretty amusing. I guess Blizzard finally cracked after all the "too colorful" jokes? Ghostbusters have been a big thing this year, and Unicorns...well, I believe in them, so why can't Blizzard? Blizzards very own representative “Bashiok” put together these (unofficial) images for us, so who knows – an easter egg or two may be hidden within the game, and we like delicious, hilarious, easter eggs.

You can never assume things like this are a joke with Blizzard.

Well, the unicorn using silent but colorful rainbows is a bit further than I'd expect them to go, but I wouldn't be surprised to see the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man.

Let's not forget about the Secret Cow Level. Maybe there'll be an achievement (or whatever they'll call them when they inevitably cave and implement something similar) called "Cross the Streams"
