What do you guys think of the new collectables? I like them, personally. The mermaid is not that great, though.

I like them, the eyes will do wonders for my comic. The mermaid is alright, but I can't think of what it blends well with. The Scythe is the oppisite of the Sun Staff which came out a year ago, I believe.

Yeah, I was thinking that too. I really think the "boy" version is bad. The top part especially looks like they just drew a block.

I like those. I don't quite like the tail but I like the other poses. Espesially those little fishies. I'm getting the scythe mostly as an investment. I'm pretty sure it will inflate within a year. There's been so many petitions for it that I'm sure it's going to be popular. Now I'm exited how my MC buying goes. Me and my friend decided to do joined mail order since that's pretty much the easiest way for us. whee

I'm still sort of making up my mind about them confused The eyes are the most versitile and are probably worth investing in. The scythe is kinda cool, but battle type ava specific. The mermaid sets... well... visually I like them, but I have a feeling they're going to be a pain to match other things with.

Try again in about a week. The price is going down now that the initial craze is ending.

Im a bit iffy on the eyes, but if you look in my journal, i used three scythes and a aquatica, those i like.

I personally don't care for the eyes that much. They just don't have a lot of appeal to me. I do however like the aquatica and the scythe. I don't think they're that hard to match, especially if you play around in tektek.

I love the fact that they have a mermaid tail because there has been a petition for long while now asking for those things and it makes me feel all warm knowing that the admins have taken that into account. It makes me realise how much they do to please us - and ask us what we want.

For investments, I'm thinking the scythe will probably do best. I might just buy one when the "newness" of it wears off, for that reason.
In general, though, I don't like any of the items incredibly... But I like the tiara sort of thing for the Aquatica. I can see it being incorporated with the Angelic items. Other than that, though, I don't see many practical uses for the Aquatica beyond making an avi designed with that item specifically as it's theme.
The eyes seem about 50-50 to me in terms of investments. Depends on how much people like it. I'm sure there are people who like the style with fire pouring out, even though I find it incredibly goofy. And there's the style with eyeliner in the item's icon- fairly certain that this style is meant to look like some anime character. The only other one I've seen looks like some of the regular eye styles but with unrealistically thick eyelashes. I'm sure that one will become (or is already) obsolete due to that similarity. The others might fuel demand, though. Not sure.

Maybe it's best to just invest in unopened letters? Who knows which one will be in the shortest supply later on. Letters usually have the highest value anyway.

I think that the Aquatica is an okay thing, it's good because the bubbles around it are cool to me, the bad thing is that it is not really drawn well like a model of a mermaid. The Scythe is not bad but I think it's a version of a sunstaff. I mean it looks like one and it looks like an ax... oh wait I think it is one.

Aww, am I the only that loves the Aquatica the best? sad I thought the jewels and bubbles were awesome. >w< I don't like the Lunar Scythe, though. >>v It might rise in value, since I see way too much people with the "demonic" theme. >.>
