The ray is fired at SweetCoCoNuTtY...
 
 
... and he changes colour to Swamp Gas!!
oh noooooooo she's all stinky!!

Oooo these are all amazing! I still have my heart set on a mutant hissi, but that rainbow outfit is really making me second guess that. I wonder what it looks like on other colours? Because it looks like overlay is individual scales...

The artists do tend to go through 'phases' with certain colours. I guess they're just in a gem phase? Not really a fan, and I'm mainly just annoyed that the relic PB is probably going to increase in price again, sigh
And it does look copied and pasted ^ although at least the back claws are different from the front claws.

They need to find a more reliable way of introducing PB's into the system than solely though nerks. With Premium memberships dropping off, they're even thinner on the ground than usual!

I just got a gathow for my pet and I was planning on painting it tyrannian, but honestly I think I might go for elderly now?

that's 400 NC! One more win and I can get another pet slot (Or maybe I'll wait and see if the slots do actually go on sale!)

That's for the base pets anyway. There are almost always a few exceptions where specific colours appeal to me though. So grundo's do very little for me but I like the Halloween and Marshmallow ones. Burlap Meerca's are cool, the Woodland Techo was nicely done, And often the Mara/Mutant versions are cool, although again species dependant.

My brain says I know vikings didn't have horned helmets, but my heart says they look cool, so I choose to ignore it when it comes to fantasy. Call them ceremonial or something
The fur on the jacket reads more 'aviator' to me, like a bomber jacket, especially with the helmet (take off the horns, it looks like one of those early pilot's helmets), which definitely fits the steampunk theme. I kinda like it, and I don't have a shoyru get so it's definitely going on the 'maybe' list
And that's a neat fact about the samurai helmets! Honestly that's probably one of the only good reasons to have horns on your helmet, they've got to be pretty inconvenient for actual fighting, not to mention a grabbing hazard, lol

Yay! I've been trying to get this for ages... when I remember at least!

Yeah, this is more or less where my brain is. I may hold onto it until April 27th to see if inspiration strikes in terms of a new name. If I can think of an awesome killer bunny name before then, I may have the best of both worlds! 
I've done quite well out of this Vandy zapping though. I got a Desert zap a while back and moved the clothes across to my Toy Vandy (re-painting the Desert one a base colour before moving back) for a cross paint that cost me zero!

Yeah, my thinking was save the cost of the morphing potion as even the base colours are 1.8mil-2mil odd. Then paint baby myself. Made sense in my head but I didn't think through the chances of getting really cool zaps!
Yep, exactly!
That's a good idea! Deadline of April 27th to come up with another name or this one turns back into a zapper!

It doesn't, but the cybunny morphing potions are like 2M each, so getting the zap would save a lot of money!

Love how he's aged 20 years in the past three years. The truth is heavy, man.
The avatar's pretty cool BUT be careful about flipping through the theories if you go to redeem the avatar on your sides cause it also gives out an item.

*sniff* MY BABY'S GROWING UP
She'll eventually wear the body 'shrooms, but I'm loving the ivy markings too much right now to swap them out. Plus, it's a gradual thing, you know? An ancient, undiscovered deific relic doesn't just sprout mushrooms everywhere OVERNIGHT, of course.
 

While I'm tempted to take the side of keep as is because stealthy vandas are A++... if you really have your heart set on the baby cybunny, I think you should keep zapping. Even if it takes a while, it'll be so worth it when you finally get that zap!

Well, my good luck continues!
Just won a Cloud Paintbrush at the Fruit Machine!
I got 2 mill for mine within a day of putting it on the TP, so worth it!
My highest fishing level is 230. I have five pets between level 100 and 200 and three pets over level 200. I mostly get junk that I save for a possible return of Charity Corner. The only other decent things I've fished up are Shiny Shoal Shell Shield (sold for 12k at the time, now worth 1k), several Bag of Broken Neopoints (worth about 2k) and 2-6 point items for Charity Corner. This was by far my nicest haul!!
It's worth keeping the stuff though. Values range from 1-6 points and they add up to prizes if Charity Corner ever comes around again.

My eldest pets have horrible names as well as I was just a teenager and let Neopets "help" with suggestions:
luckje2000: Eventide Kacheek with Robot housing (My battle pet)
_roll_over_: Cloud jubjub because when I created it I watched the little "movie" and they were rolling over the hills making me think of "Roll over Beethoven"
aapke_2000: Halloween Mynci (Guess I really had no inspiration for names back then)
__xian__: Fire Shoyru (I just really like Xian a lot as a name)
wudahS: Shadow backwards and misspelled is a Baby Xweetok
Later I created more pets thinking of better names:
RyujinShin: Mutant Draik (Ryujin is a dragon in Japanese mythology, Shin is part of shinrin yoku which means forest bathing)
Vinyama: One of my lab rats, at the moment Blue Kacheek means Animal in Swahili
Kyanwa: Spotted kougra (means Cat in Hausa)
Peresan: Second labrat, at the moment a blue flotsam (I think it meant something or is derived of something meaning organism or animal or something like that but I can't remember)
Zenmiya: Candy Zafara (As far as I remember didn't had a meaning, just a name I came up with)
Noctate: Shadow Korbat (Noctus means the night in latin)
Ostcar: adopted this one, Stealth Hissi
Servivu: Third labrat, at the moment a water Grundo (Ser Vivu Means organism in Spanish)
I still want a UC Faerie draik as that is my dream pet, but I don't have a name yet (Or maybe in the future RyujinShin will be turned into the UC faerie Draik. Who knows. It will most certainly be named something Japanese as I'm learning Japanese right now and I really like the language. Also, whenever I think of Dragons I think of Japan.
 
 
 

Update: I did not win. I'm sure you are all shocked by this revelation.

Well I managed to spend all my points without any leftovers. Got the snowglobe, stamp, and bomb, plus the history of faerieland, neophite's notes, journal, buzz charm and a sparklecake. Still need to get a second sparklecake and the nimmo book, but the journal didn't disappear when I read it, so I was able to swap it for two of the employment handbooks!
Oh yeah I need the horn and the gummies too but those should be super cheap in a couple weeks.

Yeah, not having a 1.5 day was a real blow to people in certain time zones. I guess they just forgot? It's been really glitchy too, apparently, some people are getting more shards and some less than five. But what else is new with this site lol?
Yeah at least it's bringing down the paint brush prices, the faerie PPPB in particular was just grossly inflated. Hopefully everything will settle back at its pre-inflation prices like what happened with the Halloween PB!
I am worrying that I may have goofed with buying the snowglobe right off the bat, though. 🥲 I was assuming everyone would be so focused on the PBs that it wouldn't drop that much, but it's already nearing 1M, which at that point I would have just bought it myself. Oh well, live and learn I guess.
