Yup, saw that and what might be new dragon feet. I want to see a new Wolf head before I get too excited, though.

Yeah pocket D on virtue is going to become even scarier.

When something good happens to me, I can never enjoy it....
I am always too busy looking for the inevitable punchline...

BEHOLD THE POWER OF CHEESE!

Maybe don't go, then?

Or, if it bugs everyone that much, either petition players who are being 'creepy' or /ignore them. Or get everyone to tell them to kindly take whatever they are doing elsewhere.

A new pack won't stop people being as creepy as they already have potential to be.

Imagine a "lost world" styled land (kind of a staple of the superhero genre) just outside of Praetoria. Its a place where Hamidon has begun the process of reverting the earth back to what it was before man... where perhaps captive humans are mutated into part-animal forms to take the place of creatures previously driven to near extinction.

Of course, Hamidon seems to like more of a "devoured" look for human captives... so maybe this is the work of a twisted scientist that believes he's "saving" humanity by distorting them into forms that Hamidon doesn't see as a threat to the earth...
THAT would be way cool. Where's the like button??


OH... and total ditto with needing to have the ability to put hair styles on an animal head. I concur.

I hope we can put hairstyles on those animal heads...
Maybe not all but some, or even some wild oriented new ones.
The eagle head may not fit with hairstyles but the cheetah head is crying for hair. I love Thundercats, a Cheetarah homage would be nice.
Also, we need to have different skin for the new animal skin. I mean, not as tight but as skin itself.
That way we can put some clothes on them.

And I also want animated hair, but we will never see it, I agree with Techbot Alpha.

To be honest, I think we're going to see the most requested pieces. The ones that come to mind are:

Feline head/feet/pattern - which we've seen (head, pattern)
Eagle head/feet/pattern - which we've seen (head, feet)
Canine head/feet/pattern
Lizard head/feet/pattern - which we've seen (feet)

Deathbird would be an example of that from comics. Or Firehawk.

My question is whats the bonus power going to be? Here's hoping for it not being "getting fleas..."

Some speculate that it might be a beast run, something similar to the Ninja run power.

If they add something like that, it might mean that they're working on similar animations for enemy mobs.

I do recall a link to a job posting on their site ages ago... something about an animator with experience in animating non-biped movement or something like that.... Figured that might have been part of the new "demon mastermind" animation too....
