Hmmm. I'm a little disappointed. These are a tad generic. I was praying for Zombie and Jelly. Or Snow... Speckled is pretty average. I was hoping for blue eyes, like some of the others, but they're still okay. I like the ears, face, and wings, and painted Diana the second the New Features came out (I was refreshing at the rainbow pool with the brush in my inventory), so I now have the first speckled Draik in Neopia. Behold. Silver is too dark, too dull. Draiks deserve to be shinier. And the bright spot on the leg is too white for such a dark gray. The wings and ears don't look shiny at all. I thought this was grey, at a glance. Not fond of the clothes, either. But oh well. Opinions?

I say we lucked out. with the amount of bland zombies and pink jellies we've been getting, we were lucky that TNT didn't release a pink jelly zombie.

That's true, but still... TNT loves to put wearable clothes on draiks. And I just can't see a pink jelly draik. But yeah, I guess it's for the best that we didn't get a jelly draik when the bubblegum-chrome jelly fad was still going on.
The best zombies were when the PB first came out. But I'd die to see the shirt on a zombie draik. :<

Hmm.. the Speckled one is okay. Not really outstanding, but there's nothing wrong with it either. (lol Diana. xD First one in Neopia!)
I think the Silver is too dull. It should have more of a sheen, y'know?
And the wearables. The helmet and suit are a little strange, in my opinion, but the dress is pretty. ^^

Dull, uninspired and unimaginative.
Like many of the recent pet colors. Boo.
EDIT: Oh, as far as the clothes go, I think the red dress is pretty on it's own, but it's too long on the pet. It'd look better if it was a tad shorter.

HAHA YESSSSS SILVER DRAIK!!!!!!!11!11 @___@ About time. xD HAHA I LOVE IT I WANT ONE <3 I just wish they had red eyes. But whatever. Its simple but... Silver is a simple color. And the speckled looks nice. =3 The red eyes look a little off though... ... HAHA SILVER <3 And I don't know why everyone thinks they're dull. Okay, so they are. But so what? What were you hoping for? V2 of Faerie? The reason most pets are dull colors is because that's pretty much the only option left. Sure its nothing special, but you can't expect colors like silver or shadow to have special little details like pirate or desert or faerie. I mean, at least we got a color.

I think sponge, chocolate, grey, jelly, and snow could all look really cool on a draik, if done right. And part of me hopes they'll come out with an alien color for a species other than Aisha.
At least, on the bright side, they didn't attempt any of those colors when they're clearly not up to doing something more interesting.

Reve, look at the other silver pets. They're brighter and much shinier.

Maybe the artists are focusing on clothes more than fancy colors? *shurg* :3 Reve, look at the other silver pets. They're brighter and much shinier. T__T I KNOW. But maybe they're not as... shiny because they were made to resemble gargoyles? Or something?

Anyway, now there is finally a Silver Draik to make the Hatched Avatar appropriate, and isn't that most important? (Or, what most people were griping about?)

I really like how the speckling looks on the edges of the wings and ear-flap-thingies.
I don't think either color is bad, though I'll admit silver is kind of boring. Then again, I don't really think any of the silver pets look that interesting, so maybe that's just personal preference.

I remember, but taking more than just the very last pet color into consideration - most of the released colors have been kind of dull and/or poorly done.
If I recall correctly, you had quite a few gripes about the Peophin.
