I'm a huge fan of oriental stuff, but those doesn't look very royal too me.
That pose is so wrong, but if I have to choose, the boy is the less horrible.
I don't think I have a single good thing to say about them, other then I like their base colors.
The head dress on the boy is pretty nifty I guess, but overall the outfits just aren't doing a thing for me.
If it weren't for that WTF'stache on the male, I would be OK with them. They don't wow me at all, but seeing that 'stache REALLY puts me off. Ugh, the placement is terrible. I'd hate to have a long lock of hair growing out of each of my eyes like that.
I don't even like their base colors, let alone anything else about them. The Royalgirl is particularly horrible. She reminds me of Shampoo from Ranma 1/2, except that it's a Nimmo, and ugly, and fails. Quite possibly my least favorite royal pets ever.
You know, I don't think they're the *worst* royals, (Kois are the worst) but they're certainly not any good. I like the Royalboy's clothes, but that's it. The mustasche is terrible. The girl's base color is okay. But I haven't seen a single Royal post-revamp worth buying except peophins. I just chalk this up to "That's 2.0 for ya."
Thank you TCStarwind for the lovely signature! ^_^
I have to agree that they really aren't the best of the Royal pet colors. I like the oriental theme— The clothes are actually awesome, but the normal squatting position ruins it. It reminds me of the disappointment I felt when they changed the Halloween Nimmo's position to match the others. Sigh!
That, and Nimmos have big enough feet as it is. Do they really need to emphasize that with ridiculously pointy shoes?
Wow. Guess I'm the only one who liked these. I thought they were lovely! =) I think they're very nice. The detail on the outfits is brilliant, as well as the color coordination in the boy's wardrobe. I love the little white markings on the girl and her draping veils.
The pose is not great, but the artist did not a bad job with it anyway.
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love..." ♥
When I saw: 'royal Nimmos' I was all like NO WAI UGLY
But... I actually like these. As far as V2 pets goes, it's one of the best royal pets so far. (I'm still being haunted by the royal Pteris)
But... Shenkuu themed? Meh. Am I the only one who doesn't get impressed at al by those? Now there's only a few pets left and... No Baroque Royal Pet so far! This really bugs me... I mean, apart the wigs that noone seems to like except me (lol) who doesn't want an Marie Antoinette themed pet? I hope that, if those come... please please be the Lutari or at least the Xweetok. All good pets are taken. Blah.
So they are Chinese!
I think the girl's better than the boy. Her clothes are very detailed. But as the others mentioned, the pose's really awful. To be honest, I don't think there'll be anyone willing to spend 10 million for those!
I agree with you, Erstin. They don't look royal. The Myncis are doing better than the Nimmos.
