Real life final fantasy potions!? (cool promo)

This is a pretty neat tie-in idea that I'm surprised nobody thought of before. The "potions" are akin to energy drinks like "red bull" and "full throttle" except that they relax you. How about some "magic" brownies that relax you?

Now, now, we all know that Phoenix Down's don't raise people from the dead... just those that are too exhausted to fight.

I can't really tell from that picture... are those full sized bottles, or mini bottles that you might get in a candy store or something?

I hope they do a tie-in where they incorporate good gameply back in the series.

What the name of the potion that afflicts someone with everything (rage, blindness, confusion etc). Now that would be a cool real life potion to have (or was it a spell?).

I have tons of Ether in my lab, maybe I should market it as FF ether But if you can't use magic your esophagus will probably burn up and explode before it even hits your stomach.

but that is a pretty cool promotion, I'd buy it just for the bottle, the ones with the cool caps.

I think it's that good. The big thing to note is that it goes back to the old-school style of console RPGs where the main focus is battling monsters, exploration, getting items. I certainly can't say it'll be for everyone, especially anybody that has only played the modern Final Fantasy games and would be expecting the same style as far as characters and story involvement and light focus on the battles.
