November Monthly Collectables at Their Best

Every 15th, when the new collectable's come out (once known as Donation Items), I like to see the different uses for them. Last month when the shadow and pixie came out, I came up with what I thought to be a pretty unique idea and ended up placing 10th in the Arena on week 42.

So every month I will post here what I feel are some great takes on the new items. By the way, the glitch has been fixed.

Here are some great examples I found today:


In order: Jabay, Honey Loops, Shaun Holder and Vanko.

Jabay's matching of the baby Zurg diaper and her outfit is adorable. They really look like a little family. The addition of the robo dog is an excellent choice.

Honey Loops monkey bashing made me LOL. Is she preparing a meal for her little one? I think it's safe to say that sitting on the monkey is a huge hit.

Shaun Holder's eye for color and matching is excellent. I have seen the green long john's paired with the UFO hat a few times now but this is by far the best over all look I've seen. Especially with mini Zurg in tow. The question, however, would be is this a reluctant father out for a walk with his child or an evil doer teaching the baby Zurg to harnass his powers.

Vanko displays the monkeys in a way I haven't seen yet. Over monkey'd? I think not! The ninja headband goes suprisingly well with the multiple chimps. I wonder, does each one have a name?

November Monthy Collectables are Out (of control!)


Well folks, the MCs are out and already causing riots over the mega glitch the UFO is creating! I LOVE the glitch and hope it sticks around for a day or two of pure enjoyment.

I put on my UFO bottom and ran around towns for some screenshots! Here's what I came up with!



So as you can see, not only are the UFO options not showing up at all...but they're deleting parts of our bodies! Oh my!!! Here you can see the legless, hairless and completley invisible glitches. Oh, and you can also see the monkey on my back. (Damnit, now I have George Michael's stuck in my head!)

So yes! Win for Gaia! The new donation items are a huge hit on opening day, not just because of the glitchs. We all look forward to seeing the UFOs in all their pixelated glory!
