Moreover, I'm not personally disappointed that the set lacked options for certain weapon types, both because I don't play those sets much and because I can't think of what they could have been given anyway within the theme. However, they undisputably did not receive weapon options from this pack, so I was just appending them to "only Axe is left out".
No, no, no. ZombieMinion, he wants a pistol made from MAGMA! No rocky substance there, just Magma. A Magma pistol that shoots out canary shaped bullets that soar into the enemy then *asplode* on contact, melting the opponent's upper body.
The new sets look pretty good in the photos given by Paragon. Here's what they look like on my system:
Guess I'll keep waiting for this known graphics issue to be fixed.
61866 - A Series of Unfortunate Kidnappings - More than a coincidence?
2260 - The Burning of Hearts - A green-eyed monster holds the match.
379248 - The Spider Without Fangs - NEW - Some lessons learned (more or less.)

Dare I say the one on the right looks more like ice than anything we got in this set...

I am a bit surprised that Claws were left out yet again. But I can see why there are no gund for the set.

Well, 'Fire and Snow' doesn't have quite the same ring to it, but I think they were trying to fill the hole in terms of style for the latter.

I was sitting on seven tokens, so it was a no-brainer to burn three of them for these nifty pieces.
Q. Just wondering Posi, where are the new dance emotes we were told would come with GR?

I'm a bit disappointed that the Phoenix wings (like the Celestial wings) don't flap when you fly. I suppose they couldn't animate the existing energy shimmer effect and also have them flap, but it would have been nice. As they are, they seem to lack - "life" is the only way I can think to describe it, but that's just my opinion.

I'll miss you all.
So, I have the choice between the Fire set or the Ice set (already picked up the baubles pack). Which one has all the crystalline options? Or do they both have them?

I have some similar tastes regarding what pieces I prefer. But Magnolia, I urge you to try the belt as well. Switch it to "ice" as a subsetting and then play with colors. I've found it makes a very nice "magical belt" pulsing with arcane energies.

My only real complaint is that there are no matching boot or glove options for the ice. The pretinting is screwy. To make a costume you need to find boots or gloves elsewhere, the ones from this set just do not match the ice.
And I want a waterfall cape without the ugly rock sticking out of my back. I tried, tried, tried but I could not make it work for me.
The wings are worth the token all on their own.
PS: If I hadn't been sitting on the tokens I wouldn't have paid money to get them to buy these. It wouldn't have been worth it to me. I'd have waited a month to pick up the wings+ token and foregone the rest.

Play with the elemental Titan Weapon for a while. That might make you feel a lot better if you are feeling disappointed with this set.

but at least one of them can play with it.
side note: set the phoenix wings to the darkest red, and they become very subtle. If you want a character to look like some sort of "angel in disguise" or something along those lines, do that. It's really awesome.

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

I still haven't played a stone tank because I think Granite is ugly. These driveway gravel looking pieces don't appeal to me at all. Someone will like them I'm sure, but not me. If I wanted to look like that I'd play a stone tank. They seem too limited in use to me to be worth it.
