You find 279 Neopoints!!!

You find a Snow Bowling Set!!!

The art quality on the animation is actually pretty decent this time... but I don't think those poor bruces think it's all that funny.

[Jessi]

...I'm cruel, and the animation made me giggle xD It really is well-done.

I love the bowling set, so cute!

Hey, whoever posts what the calendar is each day - can you please post the images, too? I often come here before I go to Neopets and I like to see the items along with the names, heh.

On the one hand, it's great that new players can now paint their pets with a clothing colour for gratis. On the other, the Xmas PB was always the easiest for anyone to get - if you refresh daily at the advent calendar you'll find one within a fortnight, generally.

I suggested elsewhere that a great thing for Neo to do would be to come out with a new clothed colour (since customisation, more clothed brushes to take advantage of the system seems like a plan) and then give it out via advent. Then it wouldn't be horrifically expensive to start with, like most new PBs, but would gradually inflate.

My problem with the giving out of cheap coloured PBs via Tarla, KQ, Advent etc is that these are not the PBs that need deflating. Having a Xmas uni is unlikely to stop someone wanting to paint it island. And the people who lose out, financially, are those with very little NP, but who were trying to sell their Xmas PB for 90k, or whatever they usually go for.

Still, I'm sure it will be back up there within the year.

Squee, squee! A Paintbrush ^_^ I wouldn't have minded a Biscuit one instead of a Christmas one, since Neo do seem to associate biscuits with Giving Day-type things, but hey, who complains about such a spiffy free gift?

As for me, I hate when Paintbrushes are given out, especially paintbrush with flat, ugly artwork, and I can't even sell it for something decent to make my gallery bigger. Forgettable day. Will throw my PB at the money tree. At least, I will make someone happy.

I don't like PB deflation. My pets are pretty much done, so are pretty much everyone's I know. So, when I do win a paintbrush from a contest or such, I'd like to sell it for more than 100K, you know. Chistmas will suck o resell for at least another year. And, it pisses me off, espcially since the Faerie PPPB is well over 300K, now. And, I need ten of these.

Hell, there shouldn't be a single PPPB over 100K!

And it's back to short stiff humorless animations again :S For pity's sake, there are fun images better animated than this.

Poor Chomby How rude!

[Madge]

Is anyone really so intent on being surprised by the advent prizes that they must be spoilered? I mean, if nothing else, you can abstain from reading this thread until you've visited the calender on your own.

I am just a grumpy old man who doesn't like having to click the spoiler open link to read posts.

[Jessi]

Personally, I'm tired of clicking the spoiler links too, heh. I think they're a bit silly.
