Chia and Tonu Days

[Ian Wolf-Park]

Chias get Silver, plus a new Chia exclusive colour, Sroom. Tonus get Elderly

Chia
Tonu

As for clothing, Chia is Gardener, Tonu is Ocean


I feel as if the Elderlies are more suited (no pun intended) for Royals.

Elderly Tonu:
A very strange set indeed. I wonder if originally these were made to be Royal Tonu... except they then realized too late that Tonu was already available in Royal! I'm also going to guess they made the Ocean Tonu clothing set as I would have then just made them the species clothing set. But not wanting to have to make two other Tonu Colour (and having 3 clothing sets), they checked what Colours the Tonu still needed and, lo and behold, Elderly was still needed. So they aged them up and here we are. Conspiracy aside, you can't complain about a nicely done pair of knight armor (though a bit odd they included a sword, I think the horn guard and shield is enough of an additional adornment). If I was a Tonu customizer I would definitely be considering painting my Tonu Elderly only if to get the armor.

Ocean Tonu:
Hey, what Colour is that Tonu? Is it made of sand?! Wait, this is a clothing set, right? Yeah, just a clothing set... OH, so the sea shells body cover also covers the Tonu entirely in a sand texture. Boy, JS  sure does like throwing away potential future Paint Bush ideas, don't they? Now I don't know how popular this Colour this would be, but I imagine some players would like the option to have a Neopet made of sand (with removable sea shells). It's not a bad clothing set, like what they did with the horn and mane, which makes me think Tonu customizers would use them separately from the body (I imagine they'd look quite good on the Maractite, Relic, and maybe Woodland Tonu).

Silver Chia:
It's a Silver Chia.

Sroom Chia:
A nice choice for the Food Chia. There's no normal mushroom Chia so this covers the basis of both a real food they haven't covered but a Neopian version of it. Still waiting on that Marrow Chia.

Gardener Chia:
I think all the flowers on the shirt and pants is a bit overdoing it, but otherwise alright. I think the hat and basket will probably be more popular and separately used than the clothes.

I LOVE the new elderly Tonu.

But I'm devastated the horn ornaments display behind the Darigan horn vs over. I'd have made this crosspaint in a second for my Dari Tonu otherwise. Some items play nice with the long horn, some don't, ho-hum.

Love the Sroom too, always happy to have more fruit Chias.

Wish the body shells for the Tonu outfit didn't have the sand, or that the sand was separate, but otherwise think its pretty cute too.
