So, they were Gauntlets.

No complaints about the Gauntlets from me.

The Head Case seems....a little...iffy. It seems like it would be better suited to be a Cash Shop item rather than a Donation item.  

[FogSage]

I just realized the Gauntlet would be excellent in a Quincy outfit.

Definitely going to buy one. <3

I hope they follow it up with a Depraved Gauntlet or something similar, with a Grim Aura that floats behind you.

Easily one of the better items we've seen this year.

Wow, no replies? First time this has happened. >>

No comments, no criticisms, no telling me I'm a huge whiner?

I'm commenting on your comment.
I criticize your pink hair.
I think you're a huge whiner.

STFU?

I see some potential costume ideas out of both the items, but what has caught my attention the most if the new pedant.  

[FogSage]

The pendant is indeed interesting. A nice alternative to the Angelic Pendant, especially for those who can't afford it.

SHINEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY

So sealed envelopes are only going to last a week. Going to make it harder for people to afford MC's since their cost will start going up sooner.

I don't see how that's going to work.

The collectibles have been at the same price for a while now, which is currently at about 20k. Why should making the opening date earlier affect the price of the collectibles? If anything, with the date moved back to the eight, there will be more MCs glutting the market which will decrease the value of the item.

Bumping this up for tomorrow. I was so happy that there was going to be both a letter opening AND a Evolution Report, but now that's not going to happen....

Why do you suppose they pushed the date back all the way to the 12th? Something to do with not having the evolution poses done on time, do you think?

uhm...possibly MC's and also Otakon keeping them busy.

Surely the person responsible for the announcements of the Evolving Item Report doesn't go to the cons, and even so, how hard would it be to just have someone else do it?

Doesn't make sense to me, but oh well, I'll have to wait either way.  

[Sunegami]

I miss the "hints" they used to do before they released the items. It was fun trying to guess what the items were. 3nodding

I miss that too, but maybe the hints were so leading (after all, there were a lot of them) that they decided it ruined the surprise of the items.

Now we have animated scenes to go off of. We have love, battlefields, Pat Benetar, war, and a pickernick in the middle of it all.

4+ hours til release!  

[FogSage]

We have another escort type-item and what appears to be something war-related. I haven't the foggiest what they look like, as there's been some kind of hiccup with opening the letters. Says they're still sealed even when they've been released and all that.

At least I can preview them in the Collectible's Museum now, although the front page is displaying the MC page from June for some reason. Dunno what's up with that.

I cannot believe how unimaginably BAD these items are. Well, actually, the War of the Warlords isn't all that bad, but the Lusty Scoundrel is terrible. Still, just coats and helmets? Why not weapons or even a shield, for God's sake? The Lusty Scoundrel is....cheesy. Excessively so. We get....vegetable spread as a pose. And a muffin. And what is supposed to be "breath" but looks more like smoke rings. And the skin is just awful. Even the Four Horsemen item is better than this piece of garbage.

Only redeeming poses in the Lusty Scoundrel are the petals and possibly the sunset, in my opinion. I spend 2.50 and I get....this? To quote the AVGN, what a ******** bunch of ******** does this happen? Why is the quality of MC's these days so hit and miss? We used to get excellent items only a year ago and now it's like they're scraping the bottom of the barrel for ideas.

They really, really need to get their s**t together. This is getting ridiculous.
