sorry for the delay, these guys were deeper in my basement than expected...i present to you the minipix eggwalker, a newer model trying out a weird new direction. these guys are bigger than the classic model and can stand up on a desk, and don't have buttons- you interact with them by tapping the front and sides of the toy. they have backlit screens, which is why they look black in the pictures (they're not on), and when they have shred batteries in them, they light up with a unique solid color background! i don't feel like turning them on though, so that'll be a surprise. the characters are still just monochrome pixels, but they can be different colors too. it's fun.

these come in some really fancy shell designs, but all i was able to find in my collection were the basic ones. i hope that's okay...i'm sure i have some more down there, and if not, i can probably look for some used deals on auction sites and link them here for people interested (i'm not going to scalp them). a lot of these are used but don't have anything more than light scuffs, i'm really picky about that. 

so, here you go:



oh, and they're 35 cash a pop. i know that's kind of a high price, but the color screen ones are a lot more valuable, even if it's not super detailed. plus, they're highly desired for being more welcoming to newbies. 

as for questions...

@[SCOTT] i can send you a surprise color for sure! what's your MessiRoom account, so i can DM for address and such? [OOC: asking to make a thread y/n]

@[BUDDING_HORROR] i recommend looking into paints specifically meant for customizing toys...there's some special edition models that have removeable faceplates too, so you can just pop the front off and put in a custom paper insert. people do some wild stuff with those. what you can actually do with the pet varies based on model- the minipix classic is your basic care gameplay, with feeding, playing a minigame or two based on the model, and making sure it doesn't get sick and that it goes to bed on time. the character you get at the end is based on how well you do with care, so there's incentive to try and do the best you can (though honestly, i like some of the low care characters best...)

the eggwalker on the other hand has a lot more features. it has 5 minigames total, connection features with other eggwalkers (and some other models, i'll have to check my charts), as well as a lot more characters and even a step counter...while it's mainly meant as a desk pet, they wanted to make it so that you can "walk with your egg!" it's silly. i like them, but the fact that they're not super challenging kind of turns me off of using them too much- they're perfect for newbies, but i've played so many of these that i prefer ones with a little more depth. games are cute as hell, though. 

the hauntings like...they mostly just change the character designs to be a bit spooky sometimes, but not all the time. sometimes you'll just get normal characters, sometimes you'll get ones with like...big eyes, or wings, or ghost tails. i've seen some really weird ones, but it's really just a gamble. sometimes the beeps get kind of spooky, but they're not really distressing? it's kind of like stuff you'd find in a kid's horror special. sometimes you get spooky animations too, like a character baring their teeth at you in a big grin. 

as for plant characters, i have some special editions actually focused on raising plant and bug characters, but they're...kind of difficult. i'd recommend picking up a different one first, just to see if you like them in general.
