Seriously, what are we up to now? Nekola, Nekolita, Mewkola, Kikila, Rawrela, Purrela, Mikola, Bunilla, French Bunilla, Strawberry Bunilla, ItSeemsWeRanOutOfIdeas-la.... Are they really THAT popular?

And are there any plans for new items that aren't -la based? (Or any other recolors, for that matter. D: They're getting old, guys. Come on.)

chances are it's less that they're popular and more that if Gaia can do something without using any creativity or effort, they will. They cut corners wherever possible and expect everyone to just take it.

Q2k

I wish that weren't the case. D:

And I get that recolors are easy and they're probably just looking for something people will pay for, but I can't help wondering why this item got like 5 billion recolors in particular. It doesn't seem that great to me.

They will stop when they have made 18,000,753 of the damned things.

These items remind me of my visit in Southeast Asia.

Most of what Gaia has been releasing the last week has been recolours or rereleases with very few new items in the mix =/. Is this what the artists are forced to do, because I wouldn't call recolouring artistic personally.

Do you remember those March items? I hated them with a passion,
Gaia just seems to choose items to massively recolor and reproduce.
The (whatever)las are kind of adorable but I'm not going to feed bad behavior.

I'm glad that I've caught myself relatively early before getting into this la la business.

Well on the plus side, recolors are usually cheaper than the original sometimes.

They can use 721616, 661717, 461111 html color codes when they run out of primary, secondary colors and probably every other named color in the color wheel.

I don't mind. I don't know why someone who isn't into the series should. I also didn't like the march one and well, here I am x ox; still not caring, and it's not like they don't release original items every day D: they do.

I think people pay too much attention to the CS stuff x ox you are not supposed to like every single thing, that's the point of releasing so many things every day.

Also, they are really popular XD;;; Kikila and Diabolos' Annihilation were released today at the same time (I believe, someone correct me if I'm wrong) and while Kikila has sold a GC amount of 83.832, Diabolos' Annihilation has only sold 67.116, it's worth to note Kikila's like the fifth recolor and that there are other recolors selling at the same time x ox; it's not even a particularly popular color scheme... so yes, they are selling well XD
