Many new items have come this fall, including Jinxi's Charm, Infernal Spirit, and the Changling Babies. Let's go over them one by one.

Jinxi's Charm 1st & 2nd Generations

To start off, Jinxi's charm was a great first generation. Sure, it was only two items, but the doll was cute and creepy at the same time, good for girls and boys. The poses were also super, as you could put the doll almost anywhere in any hand. And there was also a little heart you could sew on your shirt/jacket that was also creepy/cute.
The problem was the second generation. The doll part didn't even work for me, so I could only use the two handed poses (is it a glitch or is it?). True they had the heart but this time they had a little pin in it. Which took off the cute part and just put creepy. Same with the two handed dolls. It's worse enough that you can't hold it with one hand, but now they have pins so that they take out the cute part too stressed . The hat was good, but it didn't go with any apparent theme and eventually it got boring in my opinion. There was a funny blinded effect the hat had with another pose, but if you wanted to see your eyes you really would have one pose, which is good for a hat. Overall, stupendus 1st generation, stupid 2nd.

Infernal Spirit 1st Generation

This one has a thrilling backstory that does not give anything away like for instance Jinxi's Charm. It also has few items, as all 1st generations will. But MANY MANY MANY MANY poses xd . You can put the scroll or the little ball of fire in various places. The ball of fire we think is supposed to be the one handed and the scroll can either go one handed or can LOOK two handed. Because it's so wide it's one of those items which it looks like the other hand is gripping even though the other hand is not holding the paper, which is very clever. Kind of like the POPSTAR guitar that came out last month. A very good item, but will the 2nd generation be as good?

Changling Babies

This one came by two, boy and girl. Forgive my language, but these items are both very GAY. Sure, for girls it is a formidable item, but for boys? No. It probably looks way too weird. For almost all of elementary school I have been with a class of all boys. As the song goes, I know what boys like. They probably would not like this. The good points, however, are that this gives many items including an African-American baby and a wig/pin/IDK that removes almost all of your hair and makes you look bald sweatdrop . Okay, I didn't say the items were all good, but the babies come in a good amount of poses, including one-handed amd two-handed. I will say that some pictures give us a worthy hint of what's to come, a changling baby that's actually a changling. The baby was in all black in the picture with grey skin, pointed ears, and red eyes, making it less girly. There may be hope for this one yet.

Conclusion

There we have it, a cheesy voo-doo doll, a spirit who's made of fire, and a GAY *cough cough* set of babies. Let's see what's here next month, shall we?
