Gaia Shop NPCs - Looks from past and present

Hello, here you can see all the past and present looks of the shop NPCs I was able to find. 3nodding If there are any mistakes or addable missing infos about the years they had a given look at or made their debut at, feel free to help 3nodding

Unsure about (need infos!):
- times of Ian looks (from when did he get black hair? 2006 or 2007? From 2007 Halloween?
- appearance year of Sam (no infos found, not even in the Gaiapedia archives )

The old Halloween pictures (2003, 2004, 2005, 2006-2008 ) were found in this very good, but unfortunately outdated thread (you can't reply there anymore), so a big-big thank you for Arlecchina biggrin For the full images I use her links since it would be long to upload each again, but if it would violate any rules, I will change the links sweatdrop

UPDATE! All 2003-2005 full shop+NPC pictures now can be reached via clicking the specific pictures in the Older looks section! So if you see the sentence above the images about the redirection, click the specifically mentioned images wink (Not all of them have uploaded full version)

Quick links (could open on new tab), good for sharing/linking also smile :

1. Older looks (2003 - 2009)
2. Newer looks (2009 - present)

Which change do you mean, when? Did he look more like the other Logan in the beginning?
Well, I heard they took (or kept?) some stuff from him, yeah, it's kinda obvious (hair, usage of word "bub" and the name). I find it funny and yet unique in a way and these are the only things that remind us of that character about him now, I think.

Finally! xd Thank you for making this guide!

Hehe you're welcome smile I always loved these periodically changing normal/event looks. Any helps/infos are welcomed regarding the years (I'm not sure when Sam, Devin and Natasha appeared on Gaia, the Gaia wiki doesn't mention them, not even in the archives - there are some other NPC deput dates in the archives).
Now I wonder if they would have the same Christmas look as in the past two years... But there are some new NPCs plus Louie's and Logan's looks are changed so there will be some new ones 3nodding

Before this thread, the hardest part was finding references to the Halloween costumes. I had almost gave up searching older costumes but then.... whee

I'll do my best to help out! Again, thank you! crying

Actually I found most of them in an "outdated" forum where replies can't be posted anymore. Plus I found some other full images via Google (very first Ian, very first Logan and very first Meredith). I have the full images and I cropped them for the guide (I hope it's ok sweatdrop )
Here are the links if interested:
Old thread - this is where I found most of the old full Halloween pictures, found them at 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006-2008 smile

And here are the others found via Google (but in Gaia forums just via Google xd ):

Ian and Rufus (2003), Meredith (2003) and Logan (2004) (I deleted the update question at Meredith's bubble though, it was linked in an older Ask the Admin rofl )

Okay smile You're very welcome 4laugh

[Obi Aoi]

Added direct image links to the reference texts of the costumes. 3nodding All should be working fine.

[Obi Aoi]

Added new Christmas looks of Louie, Mintaka & Rigel, Stein and Murasaki 3nodding
Also corrected the Christmas date datas at the newer looks.
Merry Christmas heart cheese_whine
