The Geek Costume was first released in September 2008 in Account Upgrades and the costume has been retired and neglected ever since. It was never popular and our revamp has turned all Geek costumed pets into a new Fancy Costume. We have released a new version of the Fancy Account Upgrade with 8 new Fancy themed items and either a Fancy coloured Dakota or Equilor Enchanted Plushie. This AU will retire February 15th.
The Chibs, Dakota, Equilor and Walee can now wear the Fancy Costume.
The Geek Ercuw, Huthiq, Justin, Lati, Osafo, Rusty and Vixen have been updated. If you have one of these pets, they have now turned into Fancy pets.
I think maybe the reason Geek was never popular was because it was never drawn well. If it had been drawn like these with new art, more people would have wanted Geek pets. I don't even like these as much as say, the fat or the dragon pets, but I'm still absolutely in love with the art and am tempted to get one JUST because they look so dang pretty!
I Love them!!! Wow!!! My only concern is that photos don't get changed. When you think you are getting a new photo, you get its old one it was changed from. Something for your list Ian! HOWEVER: The rusty looks fat! Really Fat!!! That I don't care for! But it doesn't take away from the artistry.
These are great! Now I need some boy pets. I love this one.
Great job artists .. whomever you are! Your work is wonderful.
^The Fancy Rusty is drawn to look like a Pomeranian, It's not fat, it's fluffy.
edit: Everyone who says the "fancy" pets are steampunk, I'm not quite sure you know what steampunk actually IS. These pets are literally just wearing suits with monocle, cane and tophat. There is way, way more to steampunk style than that.
