So THAT'S what Cherry Sugar Syrup is for . . .
For signing up with a sponsor, that is. All of the items posted last week are only available by signing up with a sponsor worth 3000 or more (which does include the new sponsor listed, RealArcade, it's only worth 550).
The breakdown, with a sample sponsor:
3000-4999 Cherry Sugar Syrup (NFO is the only one)
5000-5999 Rah Icecream (United Miles is the only one)
6000-14,000 TWO of the four music boxes (BMG)
over 14,000 Winged Collar (Netflix)

So other newsiness: the Plato Soul Sphere is new, and there should be soul spheres for the rest of the new pets soon (but I'm sure most of you out there would prefer them to be working on Battle Square stuff, right?) And speaking of Battle Square stuff, the pets with complete sets of battle poses up (as far as I can tell) are Fenrir, Feorag, Illuminaire, Kitsu, Mystoc, Stryker, Swifte, Theron, Treicho, and Trixy. It' kind of interesting that the first images they put up on the server are the ones that I would consider . . . .well, not the best Battle Square materials, sheerly from the looks of the species. Yes, it may be that the ultimate Battle Square champ at some point in the future may be a cute tiny little chipmunk looking thing that has more magic and weapons than it has hairs on it's bushy wushy tail . . . . .but I doubt it. And I'm sure that all the Rypher and Omnis owners out there are dying to know what their pets will look like when they bring it on (I mean if they can make a Treicho look cool and powerful, imagine what they can do with a Rypher!). But it seems that the next pet up for the battle makeover is the . . . .RAH, to continue the cuteness, unless of course, the Zeta team goes the Monty Python route, and gives them . . . GIANT teeth . . . can't you see the BONES, man?!?!? Sorry, but it's early, and I haven't had my coffee sludge yet . . .

So for those of you out there with REAL MONEY and who really love your zetapet, Tunafish is selling handscuplted, custom colored figurines for $25. After she backs out the shipping and cost of materials, the rest goes to zetapets . . . .way to go, Tuna! :) Oh, and way to go Halcyon for buying the first one Tuna advertised, a Dejaroo. I think it's going to be arctic . . .
