You asked. You speculated. You didn't think it would happen. But get ready to roar, because here comes the Booster Pack you've been waiting for: the Animal Pack is on its way!
Unleash the savage beast you've always wanted with OVER 60 new costume parts and patterns! Prowl the streets of Paragon City as a ferocious cheetah, stalk your way through the Rogue Isles as a bestial wolf, soar the skies of Praetoria as an eagle or lumber your way around as a monstrous minotaur. With new customizable heads, details, patterns, legs, and tails, you can go wild with possibilities!
The Animal Booster also includes new emotes, new auras, four costume change emotes, and the Beast Run travel power, which will let your animal alter ego leap and bound through City of Heroes on all fours!
We'll be shedding more information soon, but for now check out our latest trailer that should get you howling with anticipation!

Does this mean we have to wait an extra 2 weeks for our Vanguard Packs?

We announced last week that the Seven Years of Super Rewards loyalty program would begin on February 1, and end on April 18. But then we thought, "Hey, what good are rewards if everyone can't get a shot at them?" So because some of you might not have seen Tuesday's announcement or received our City of Heroes newsletter, we've set up a grace period of two weeks--which means the loyalty program will officially start on FEBRUARY 14, 2011. Players who keep an unbroken subscription from February 14 (12:01 a.m. EST / 5:01 a.m. GMT) to April 18 (11:59 p.m. EST / 4:59 a.m. GMT) will now earn the Seven Years of Super Rewards...rewards!
So be sure to have an active subscription from February 14th, and enjoy the rewards come April 28th!

I'm hard-pressed to think of a single instance where an 80s cartoon property was rebooted and it wasn't handled with care--and, dare I say it, sometimes came out a lot better than the source material. The people who reboot these shows, thus far, obviously have a lot of love for these series and have done right by them.
I say, give 'em more. Reboot Centurions. Reboot Bravestarr. Reboot Bionic Six. Reboot M.A.S.K. Reboot Jem--well okay, no, don't reboot Jem. It's too fantastically 80s and it should be left preserved in all its glitz and glam awesomeness. -
I'm a bit wary of this quote:
Quote:It makes it sound as if Wilykit and Wilykat are going to look different than the rest of the Thunderians--if they even are Thunderians.MTV: Another thing everyone's asking about is the characters we don't see in the new image. What's up with Snarf, or WilyKit and WilyKat? Will we see them soon?
SPAULDING: Yeah, you'll see them. We're going to slowly reveal that stuff. Rest assured, they're in there, and they look great. They're redesigned in a little different way, though, and you'll see what I mean when it comes time to reveal them.
I'm also eager to see how Studio 4c does MUMM-RA, THE EVERRRRRRRRRR LIVIIIIIIIIING. -

Man, and I thought I had it rough on calorie-counting to get in shape.
With regards to the movie itself, I'm actually intrigued about the plot. Wolverine's had a long history with Japan, and this is something that (as far as I'm aware) hasn't been touched on in the movies. I'm curious who the love interest is going to be. Could be Mariko. Or Itsu. Or Atsuko. -
As City of Heroes enters its 7th year, we'd like to remind you all that players who continue their subscriptions from today, February 1st, 2011 (12:01 a.m. EST / 5:01 a.m. GMT / 6:01 CET), up to April 18th, 2011 (11:59 p.m. EST / 4:59 a.m. GMT / 5:59 CET), will receive our Seven Years of Super Rewards bonuses, which includes the Seven Stars chest emblem, "The Constant" badge, a Loyalty emote, and the Vanguard Booster Pack, which will unlock all the Vanguard costume pieces account-wide on all of your characters, and grants the Vanguard costume change emote and a unique, non-combat pet.

I'm really going to miss Wizard's ToyFare magazine. Although I admittedly haven't read the publication in awhile, I have fond memories of sitting cross-legged in the magazine aisle of my local bookstore, giggling like an idiot at the toy-related humor.
So long, Mego Spidey comics. -
