    Get your pocket Mammoth now before it's gone.
    For me it will be time to get a Kagouti!

    Yeah, I presume the removal of that stuff is just in time to be included in the next Crown Crate season.

    Jury is still out on the stuff they are adding, but the costumes look promising. Will have to see them in the game.

    Eh - I was kinda hoping Assistant updates might be offered this month. Guess not.

    Shame. I know they would have identical functionality, but Tythis is such an ugly dude to have on display in my house. Oh well.

    Dissapointed! No hairstyles at all. Now I can rest assured that the only hairstyle that I like will most likely be on the next crown crate season :sweat:

    I think you should be able to check them out on the PTS (well if you are in general). I seem to remember that I wasn't too impressed, think they look better in those pictures.

    Wow, great lineup this month!! I was strongly hoping for that particular Kagouti and here we have it!

    Some quick notes, though, having tested the stunning Argonian outfits already :
    • The two kilt options need to chill with the ballooning out in front. On my character it looks like he's hoisting a sail under his belt. The back is fine and seems to drape naturally, but the front comes out like the prow of a ship and needs to get adjusted!
    • All the outfits suffer from prominent undyeable spots and/or don't take dyes very well. For example, you can't get a vibrant red on any of them to save your life, and the canary-yellow fringe on the robe (which can't be dyed) clashes prominently with many different dye schemes.

    At the very least the ballooning on the kilts should be a priority to address. They're such incredible garments and I'd hate for people to pass them up over this issue!

    Kagouti are native to Vvardenfell. Morrowind was the first game we saw them in, in fact.

    Looks great!

    But the staff pictured in the Celesital Motif picture is not actually a celestial motif staff.
    So be warned if anyone is buying the style for that particular look.
    If you can be anything, be kind.

    Hmm... it appears to be the month of the oversized lizard. Nothing interesting for me.

    But why are they even removing stuff from their cash shop? As a company, wouldn't you want to expand your variety as much as possible to cover each and everyone's taste and get the most revenue?

    Hey. This Welwa is too small.

    It should be as big as the freckled guar.

    Normally, I wouldn't complain, I've had my share of small Welwas ;) , but this one... is rather more runty than I was hoping.

    Nice to see costumes for races other than Redguard, Imperial, or Breton. Yeah...we've had some female Bosmer and male Orc costumes, but those are the only races that have received costumes for both genders. Hopefully, the trend will continue so that we'll see costumes for other races. I'm guessing (hoping) we'll see Dunmer costumes with the release of Morrowind.

    Not that interested in anything else in the showcase, but I'll have to decide whether I'll pick up any of the items being removed - to make more space. It seems like with the costumes, the trend is to introduce three of a given race/gender and then only keep the cheap one in the store. Perhaps their eventual plan is to have one for each race/gender always in the store. I dunno...just a thought I had - I hope it's true, as this would ensure there was at least one thing in there that someone would want for their particular character. I'm tired of dressing my Dunmer in Breton/Imperial/Bosmer/Redguard outfits.

    The Kagouti mount is 4K crowns, and only available for 18 days... This is another overpriced pressure-sale that I will pass on. A horse is just as good. I know this is a vanity item, but it feels like Zenimax is taking advantage of some people's vanity. It is in no way worth the price.

    WTF?? I was looking forward to buying this one! Well nevermind, yet another mount I won't buy. I'm starting to feel really bored with the crown store. Either it's terrible design or overpriced...or both!
