Von Roo? Who's he? The Tax Beast? Never heard of him. Ice hissi looks like what? MSP what? If you're not into Neopets enough to remember a few main characters from plots, especially some as wonderful as the Night Steed, then you wouldn't care enough in the first place. Really, they're there as little goodies for dare I say it, fans of Neopets. There's no need to go out of the way and make a THIS IS A NEOPETS CHARACTER RESEMBLENCE BRUSH, when they can toss a few in Halloween. Half the Halloween pets are awful anyway and most are sorely lacking the frightening/scary/spooky factor.

How come people always complain about halloween neopets and other colored that are based off of characters? It just sickens me. :x

TWW, haven't you ever dressed up as a character from a movie or tv show at Halloween? I know I have, I've been Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz, and Raggedy Ann, and Rapunzel, and heck, tonight I'm going to a Halloween Party dressed as Lois Griffin from Family Guy. :lol:

Our pets are just having fun dressing up as famous Neopians. There's no harm in it. ;)

If I didn't know what the nightsteed was I would've just taken the uni as an undead/demon thing like countless other evil fantasy horses.

well, im seeing as it being not very creative...

like, its something dressing up as itself.

The uni is dressing up as another uni. The blumaroo is just another blumaroo.... instead of trying to be something else, which is really the point of halloween, its being something that... it... allready is.

its kind of hard for me to explain my point of view, but for example, if i Saw a specie dress up as a different villian, i would probably like it more ... well, depending on the character, and the original specie. If they used a gelert to dress up as Scarblade, i wouldnt like it, because it would be too close.... or Zafaras and Kyriis are pretty close... jetsams/flotsams, etc.
And obviously, some mixes just plain would work. A flotsam would make a horrid Scarblade. I dont think a Lenny would look very nice dressed up as Hubrid Nox.

But, if they were creative, and used a kiko as the pant devil, or an usul as Jhudora, or a shoyru as Galem Darkhand.... that'd be neato. :)

Sometimes I don't get you anymore TWW. :roll: Sure the Halloween Uni looks like the Nightsteed, but it is dressing up as another uni so, it like dressing up like another person.

The uni as Nightstead was a great idea, with rather lackluster execution. Something about it just looks...plain? I don't know. I can't put my finger on it, but it definitely does look rushed.

Anyway, I don't really want one.

However! Those plushies/action figures/dolls/etc totally make up for it in their awesomeness! They're all probably insanely expensive and totally beyond my (small) price range, but I feel pleased that they're going to be around Neopia.

umm... is this really new?

I happend to spot that they used to exact same flame that they use on the baby fireball :)

see this?

turn the flame 90* clockwise.

Sun Oct 30, 2005 7:10 am

Yeah, not sure I get you there. How would a gelert go about being the nightsteed? I suppose you could have a flaming zombie gelert, but it's kinda missing the point entirely. I actually hate the halloween pets, like the bruce, korbat, and jetsam that are merely dressed up as something rather than being it. You can always go out and buy your pet a vampire costume, if that's your thing, but I'd prefer having a pet that is one.

I noticed the flaming pumpkin thing too. It's like a temporary reversion back to year two. Let's copy and paste because it's fun! I bet the pumpkin art is from something else too.

Actually I don't think it's "new." That and the "Spooky Sword" have a Last modified date that corresponds to whenever they changed the image server in January. The rest of the items listed in that item post were uploaded last week (Tuesday for the lamp, Thursday for the Haunted Weaponry)
