I'm never going to be highly enthusiastic about an Anyu other than the reborn one. This one is all right. The face bugs me, but that is a feature of the new Anyu's face. I hope the reborn revamp doesn't get that face too.
The velosotor I almost love. I wish the stripes weren't blue. Actually, what I wish is that it had gold swirls in the approximate shape of its stripes and no real stripes at all.
I think I'm in love with that Velosotor, it looks so unbelievably elegant, it's face especially, it's really gorgeous.
The Chai is alright, the markings are nice and it looks nice and fluffy, just not a pet I'm too fussed about. There's nothing wrong with it, it just doesn't really appeal to me.
EDIT: Lol, Anyu not Chai

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who thought that the Anyu was a Chai at first I wish that this Anyu looked a tad more - oh I don't know, regal? Serious? Less like a happy widdle bear like the Chai and more like a grizzly or polar? I really like the grey bits though, especially around the eyes.
The Velosotor is simply fantastic. It's nicely slender and sly-looking, although the gold spines distract a bit from it. I love how its showing off its killing-claw. I wanted to wait to see how the Darkmatter and Bloodred revamps were going to be, but I'm very, very tempted to make one into my Dinobot!
My computer is connected to the internet and the internet contains everything in the whole wide world ever. I don't know about you but I sometimes find everything in the whole wide world ever a bit distracting.
Why did they release the Galactic Velosotor *after* I'd decided on a good colour for my male one? Anyways it looks really very elegant, but like others have said, I wish they'd done away with those light blue stripes, you can't really see the gold swirls that are in them very clearly. The killing claw thing is wonderful though, I love Dino-raptors and this Velosotor actually looks more like one than the non-redraw colours.
I like the Anyu though, the silver around its eyes and muzzle are gorgeous but it does look a bit like the Chai. Maybe it's the position of the body? anyways a really nicely done colour for a beautifully revamped pet.
Ohh I adore the Anyu. I didn't see it as a Chai (mainly cause I forget that species exists half the time heh) until it was pointed out, but I guess I can see the resemblance. Its really lovely though and I'm glad that sky blue color was only kept on the anklets. He's just so big and fluffy, and look at the bear paws!
Though I'm waiting for the complaints to come in saying how much they hate it since it doesn't have a tail @@
The Velosotor is lovely as well! I love the expression and the way the limbs are posed. Probably one of the only Velosotors I'd ever consider owning. Nicely done.
Edit:
Iltallo raises the gems into the air over Shardae and and a light engulfs the entire surrounding area! When the light fades, you notice that Shardae is now Galactic!.
The Anyu's pose looks rather... odd to me. Like it's standing. But you can't really stand on anything in the vacuum of space, so it just looks... odd, standing there to me. Also, aren't pets mostly supposed to look at the user? I know there's a few exceptions to the rule but I'm not sure an exception had to be made this time. I do like the swirls though - pretty without being overwhelming.
The Velosotor is absolutely -gorgeous-, and I never thought I'd be saying that about the velosotor because it's not my kind of pet. The pose is wonderful however. My only complaint about it is how -pale- the gold swirls are. You can barely see them at all. i agree with twofold, I think it'd look pretty without the stripes, and just the swirls to replace them.
What is the Anyu doing, pulling an invisible rope? The pose doesn't make sense - Galactic pets are supposed to be suspended in mid-air. It looks like it's standing on something, and I'm not too sure what it's doing. Plus, aren't they supposed to be looking at the viewer?
I do like that it's facial markings are silver though, and the circle-y gold markings are nice, too.
Now, the Velosotor I LOVE. I wish the spines were silver instead of gold, but that's pretty much my only bitch. I'm going to wait and see what the Glacier Anyu looks like before I make a decision on my final pet, though. :3
edit: I replied before reading, and it turns out Jessibean pretty much said everything I did. Oops. XD
I am very unemotional about Velosotors. They exist, yay for the people who want them, I personally don't care for them or any of their colours. The Galactic one is okay. The left (our left) foot seems weirdly posed and I can't tell which claws belong on which limbs. I agree with Mr. Black about the stripe things.
I quite like the Anyu, actually - my first impression was that it was catching stars. Or tossing them. Or something. Very nice job with the swirlies. I have no space, so I wouldn't get one. Actually, even if I did have space, I wouldn't get one; something about it bugs me. Maybe it's the color of the leg/arm-wings? I get that that blue is one of the shades in a Galactic pet, but a grey or gold would've looked much better.
I like the Anyu quite a bit. It is just the right amount of swirly and pretty without being overdone. I have never really liked the Velosotor, so I am neutral on it.
