Items are marked "no trade" - it's possible that will change after beta, but I don't really expect it to. All the items in the mall also have an expiration of 5 days, which seems really short - I hope that part is just beta. Maplestory is usually a month or so, isn't it?

No indication yet of how much Neocash will cost in real money, that I can see. If I click on "Get Neocash" I just get a popup saying "Coming Soon".

Umm... uhoh... I think I might of broken it. When the items first came out, they were not No Trade. There are two Neopians right now who didn't get selected for Beta with pairs of Altador Sandals, although I won't name names =D

Edit: Any items that I buy, I'll SS on my pets (I only have customisable Blumaroos on my main, sorry D=) so you can see what the items look like all big and nicelike.

Princess Niva takes the stage to start the Open Ceremony of the Altador Cup =D

Donalbain is showing off the Altadorian Sandals. Note that they are actually animated, with flappy wings that need to be slowed down D=

More Updates:

Trinkets such as the Faerie Dolls can be equipped to Neopets who, for whatever reason, cannot wear clothing (grandfathered pets and redraw pets)

Image
The Faerie dolls float like you'd expect Faeries to. They flap their wings, and bob up and down like they're actually working to keep up in the air.

Can mutant/baby neopets wear any of the clothes or accessories? The faerie dolls are nice, but actual clothes would be great.

So far, My mutants were not able to wear any of the clothing I had bought D=. That is just the Meepit Hat (picture coming soon!) The Dress and the Sandals though, so it may be something they impliment in the future.

Edit: Next up is the Meepit Hat =D

Image

Aww... cute!

Image

Wait, what was that?

Meepit hats are animated, with the eyes blinking and then looking around all sneaky like. Very cute =D

:shock:

wow.

Good thing I have job, bad I don't have paypal...

Are they expecting this to replace or lower the prices of paintbrushes? Illuen are they planning on having a lot of clothing for greater diversity? Will each area of neopia get a themed shop?

Sorry about all the questions but I am so pyched right now! :D

I have absolutely no idea. I'm not TNT, I'm just a lucky Beta tester. I have no idea what they want from this, or if they expect it to lower Paintbrush prices or what. I wish I could be more helpful, but I'm not psychic, unfortunately.

Slight error with accessories and grandfathered pets :)

Image

I'm getting other things to work, but the wings of flame still won't. I even bought another one in case that one item was somehow broken. *shrug*

The tiara and ruby slippers sparkle, a little blindingly. I somewhat dread seeing some future pet dressed up in zillions of animated items. The slorg is very cute, though, zooms back and forth happily.

Actually, if you read the FAQ, the real expiration dates will be 365 days.

So, do you guys think that this is the grand surprise they promised the day of introducing customization?

If so, I think I might finally sell my krawk trans. I was still hoping maybe they would let us get old pets back, but I suppose a Maraquan krawk will be forever out of my reach. I might have to get a pretty draik instead.
