^That almost makes this uni cool.

Not quite, though.

I didn't get a chance to comment on this pre-move, but I can't believe how close they came to making a kick-ass, awesome mutant Uni -- and yet, they didn't.

Image

Why in the name of all that is holy isn't that tail a stinger dripping with poison? And why aren't the snakes of the mane, ya know, actual snakes? With open, hissing mouths and long snakey tongues and fangs dripping venom.

WHY, TNT, WHY? It could have been So.Cool. I like the convex head and I don't mind the colors and while the lines are thick it's hardly the only pet suffering under that fate.

But the snakes and the stinger tail would make this the coolest Uni ever -- except for the part where now they won't. Because it doesn't have them -- it just looks like it really wanted to have them but Santa decided it had been a bad Uni that year and so gave it the cheap, sold-on-the-street corner designer knockoffs.

Dur, no? The Halloween uni was made to look like the Nightsteed, not the other way round. The same goes for the Halloween yurble and blumaroo. You know, dress up as you're favorite hero or villain?

Yeah, I'm also hopeful that the fact they haven't released this yet means they're realising how god awful it is and wanna redo it first. Not that there's a precedent or anything for that, but I'm hopeful.

WTF!? The desert plot enemies were not "halloween". They were undead desert mummies. The halloween Uni was just based off them.

It was already said, but that post was so "WTF" it had to be corrected twice.

And the mutant grarrl pertains to this because it's equally shitty.

But there are lots of horridly drawn pets that they never released... like the old Tyrannian Uni. Of course, there are also horrid pets that they do release, and really good ones that sit around forever, but there's some hope. :wink:

It is pretty awful. Unis have the potentional to be really cool as mutants so lets hope they rethink this design.

Geeze it looks like something from The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. And that's no compliement because the art in that cartoon looks cheap and rushed. >_< I guess that crappy style of cartooning has finally gained a foothold in Neopets.

Cons:
too simple
looks like old Neopet artwork (nothing personal to that artwork of course-- we've just moved in quality, you know?)
doesn't look mutated
the mane doesn't look right... even for these
has the chomby's spot! (I don't mind that, but last time I was here people were making a big deal about pets having that :P)

Pros:
It's hard to believe there's anything nice about this pet, but I do like the colours they used for it.

I hate to tute my own horn, but I prob. could draw a better mutant uni than this. And I can't even draw evil or gross characters!
