Hey guys, I'm just wondering if anyone could recommend me some gaming related gift ideas. It's my best friends b'day in a couple of months and I want to get her something really good, game related. She is turning 21, and I had the idea of getting her a badass Ezio statue (Assassins Creed) but she just recently bought one! So i'm looking at official websites trying to find something, be it a statue, clothing (a bit iffy as most are made to shape dudes), poster or whatever. I'm posting here to see if i can get some ideas that I may not have considered yet.
The games she likes are
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Mass Effect series
Assassins Creed series (Particular Ezio)
Elder Scrolls series
Bioshock 1
She also likes the Game of Thrones novels and t.v series
I'd go with a simple Steam gift purchase, but this is a 21st and i want it to be something with a little effort.
The skyrim collector's edition comes with a dragon statue, might be able to snag one off ebay for cheap. There's also the assassin's creed jack in the boxes and a hand blade replica.

In the same vein, the Bioshock collectors edition came with a Big Daddy statue you might be able to find.
Alternatively, Bioware's got a pretty good selection of female apparel on their site. I think the N7 courier bag is pretty cool looking, personally. If your friend's in college or needs to carry stuff around, it might be an option.
Just to help us help you, what's your budget for this?
Also, is booze an option(I mean, it is 21st bday...)?

Maybe a Skyrim or GoT themed mug for quaffing ale with?
E.Coyote - Hey, the Skyrim statues not a bad idea. I know she is envious of one of her friends who has one.
KafkaAU / See317 - Mass Effect store is pretty cool. Some nice clothing. I may have to suss out in conversation things about Mass Effect she likes.
This is looking to be an option - shes fairly conservative in dressing. http://biowarestore.com/apparel/womens/ladies-n7-armour-stripe-black-tee-5.html
The bag is also rather epic too!
Budget: Going to say i'm willing to go up to $100
And she's not a drinker.
Ubi Workshop has a bunch of awesome Assassin's Creed swag, including hoodies just like Demond's.
I'm actually waiting on a Desmond hoodie of my own! I've just had too many problems with their service. Waiting 2 months and they still havn't shipped my hoodie (estimated early august), so I decided to avoid the store because I need the gifts by end of next month.
I decided to purchase two cool shirts from the Bioware store. I bought medium, just incase Small is... too small. Damn ladies sizes are confusing! She has a friend who alters clothing anyway so I should be safe with those.

Also with the games you list - if she does not know of STALKER (and even older NOLF) then make sure she get's to try them.
