Christmas Grarrl

Well, one can't say they didn't try to sly away from the "peppermint coloured stripes" this time...

Ewewew. If I had any love for the Grarrl, I'd be pretty PO'ed by this color. I know this is Neopets, where the word "natural" probably has no relevance, but those stripes just don't look natural. The least they could have done was add some smaller stripes to the arms; as it stands now, it looks like someone just ran a light green brush across a normal green grarrl a few times.

The hat's kind of cute, but that's really the only redeeming quality of this pet, IMO.

I love it - it makes me laugh. I'm for some reason strongly reminded of Robin Hood: Men in Tights (all those pretty greens, and the hat, and the goofy expression).
I can't take the species seriously since they installed that ridiculous grin on its face, so it might just as well look over the top - it suites it.

I think this is pretty awful in my opinion. The stripes just look silly, there is no real point to them, and doesn't really make me think of Christmas. The only reason I would want to paint a grarrl Christmas would be to get the hat. The basic red, or even green would look better with those clothes than the Christmas grarrl itself.

As soon as I saw this I said, "ew".

And that's all I have to say about it, really. I do second the dislike for the stripes.

I almost want to get one just to dress it up in other colours accessories. I think it'd make a lovely base for some funky accessories :P

Grarrl are one of my fave species, I kind of fell in love with them from the neglect they got over the whole BGC avatar, I used to own a Maraquan one and was saving for a Royal Girl, though sadly the revamps of the Grarrls have creeped me out and Maraquan is the only one I could own. BUT. This grarrl, I like it, the shoes and the hat are lovely, I like the colours and the creepy smile fits in with the costume, because elves are creepy. :D

"... weak" is the first thought that entered my mind. I guess it's not so bad, now that I've stared at it for a minute. Kind of amusing. Something about those shades of pastel and desaturated green combined with the green of the hat and accessories still puts me off, though. It would make an interesting base.

Personally I think it would have been better white with the accesories.

This is a colour younger players might enjoy, or someobdy who likes comical pets. I don't hate it, because it doesn't make that strong an impression on me. I'd have to say I'm indifferent.
If you're ever in doubt, throw a pepper in the air. If it fails to come down, you have gone mad, so don't trust in anything.

It's , huh .... strange. They should make stripes like Korbat's . And one Pet for five days is too little... I think at next X-mas or Xweetok Day they can make Christmas Xweetok.
