Macro for Gnomish Gearworks items

The Gnomish Gearworks building in my WoD garrison has a daily "invention" that you can pickup and use.

I'd like a macro that contains all possible items and uses whichever one you have for today. Is this possible?

http://www.wowhead.com/building=162#rel-items gives a list of the items.

Here's a macro that works, but the tooltip is only shown when I have a "Sticky Grenade Launcher". If I only have a "Sentry Turret Dispenser", then the macro "uses" the item, but the tooltip is "?".

Since I normally have at most two items from the gearworks, this macro plus another in the opposite order can be put on two action buttons and cover whatever two I have, but it would sure be nice to have them display the correct icon.

Anyone have any ideas?

Code:
#showtooltip
/use Sticky Grenade Launcher
/use Sentry Turret Dispenser
/use Pneumatic Power Gauntlet
/use XD-57 "Bullseye" Guided Rocket Kit
/use Prototype Mekgineer's Chopper
/use "Skyterror" Personal Delivery System

I think castsequence is what you're after. Read through this thread to see if it helps shed some light.

I use it for both Kill Command and Bestial Wrath and it works quite well to show the correct icons.

No, because he wants to use whatever's available, not go through each item one-by-one.

bsmorgan: what you want isn't possible within the restrictions of a macro. It will only look at the first line of what you have there for the icon. You'll need to pick an icon to use for the macro as a whole.

I misunderstood. I use both spells in one macro, and it shows both icons.
