There's my two takes.

I think it's OK, but I don't like Zafaras and will probably never own one so my opinion doesn't count for much. I think that the sock ears should've ended more like rat tails. In fact, I think the whole thing should've been a mangy, drooling, deformed rat with rabies.
I like the green one, it looks like puke...green pea puke..xD

Y'know, if it were any color other than BRIGHT HAPPY CARTOONY BLUE I'd probably like it a lot, but that color just... doesn't work for Mutant. At all. :? Should've been green or brown or SOMETHING. I do like the sorta crazed look it has in its eyes, and the stinger like tail is pretty win - I remember putting one of those on the Mutant Zafara design I doodled up years ago.

I gotta like the mutant hissi recolor for it there, Cyro. Guess you really can't be a true mutant with bright colors, eh?

I think if done right, this would work better if it wasn't so rushed and it's tail was always arched, ready to strike whoever touched it. RAWR!

I dunno. I dislike the battle poses, definitely. And the color is a problem. But I think other than that it's decent. I won't ever get one, because I'm really not a fan of mutant, but it doesn't seem too bad.

Bad: it doesn't look diseased, warty, slimy, or decrepit in any way. Color is boring.

Good: it's NOT a hulking, evil, muscular thing (which I absolutely despise in the mutant color), the stinger is an idea I would've done myself.

I think it looks quite good.. well.. I like the recolours on this post and they bring out the best in the design. The potential is definitely in it, if only they spent just a few more seconds drawing it and deciding on the colours for it >_< Such a shame to see good ideas brought down.

Meh. Not terrible, but it's still a major letdown for me. D: I was expecting so much more!

.. the worst thing about this is that EVERY other color that was made by the image-altering masters here looks better than the actual thing. I like Cyro's black one best, but the pukey green one, the red one, even the grey one that still uses multiple colors.. They all look better than that standard hulking mutant blue!
): Someone take that color off the possible mutant skin colors. It's become too much of a habit now.

I want to chop of its legs and give them to the Grarrl. The Grarrl deserves dinosaur feet like that, not the puny paws it has currently! *grumbles*

I dislike it as a whole, but am rather fond of its claws... because I just am. It's overall not 'icky' enough for my tastes, the blue color isn't a good choice, etc etc. I always did have an odd feeling that the Mutant Zafara would be quite a let down, so I'm not all that disappointed as much as I'm sure many of you are.

Oh hey- and it does have a stinger tail; pretty cool, didn't notice that at first :P

Bwuh? I agree with all that's been said about the color being wrong and the details being silly. I wish they'd had gone further along the scorpion route as that would have been interesting to see. I'm still dying for a scorpion pet.

Huh. The ears don't seem to go with the rest of the body at all. Granted, it's a mutant but... I think they could have come up with something better.

A different color would have improved it a bit.

I like this recoloring the best. Sweeeet... the black and green contrast makes it look really mutated and almost radioactive. :D I'd love this Zafara much better if was like Cyro's. I like the way it's drawn, but the blue is just a little bright and not too pleasant.
