This creature is truly beautiful. Happy Chinese New Year.

Roosters are my favourite, I can't believe we've finally got a rooster creature! ❤ī¸ I want to collect ALL THE ROOSTERS!

elluwah • 28 Jan 2017, 7:00 AM

Okay, I've calmed down a bit. 😋 Just want to thrown in my appreciation for this beautiful creature, the artist did a great job. Happy CNY!

Finally got my fancy rooster from the cave ~ now to freeze or not to freeze?

silverserpent • 28 Jan 2017, 7:31 AM

@element I want to get two, raise an adult and freeze a chick. 😉

shirona • 28 Jan 2017, 7:36 AM

@silverserpent I might end up doing that, too lol

dafni • 28 Jan 2017, 7:47 AM

@silverserpent @element I was thinking the same, but also the egg stage is tempting me... This creature is too beautiful ❤ī¸

shirona • 28 Jan 2017, 7:48 AM

@dafni It might end up retiring instead of being seasonal so go all out imo xP

silverserpent • 28 Jan 2017, 7:48 AM

@dafni It truly is beautiful, yes. So detailed! And such lovely colours. I love how the art is immensely improved lately! ❤ī¸

dafni • 28 Jan 2017, 7:50 AM

@element yeah, maybe it will be seasonal having a Chinese new year critter, but I doubt it will be always this one...

dafni • 28 Jan 2017, 7:52 AM

@silverserpent exactly, this artist is great, I'm so curious about next CSPs... I'll hope for a red passion coloured theme for Valentine 😊

shirona • 28 Jan 2017, 7:54 AM

@dafni - yeah, the dog for next year and fingers crossed that it'll be back in 12 years from now rofl

silverserpent • 28 Jan 2017, 7:55 AM

@dafni I really, really hope for something red and not so much pink this February. I'd love that. 😃

dafni • 28 Jan 2017, 7:56 AM

@element ahahah, it will be cool! First thing I did was checking how long takes to reach my sign's year xD

shirona • 28 Jan 2017, 7:58 AM

@dafni Oh, what sign are you? The rooster is mine so was really happy seeing a creature for it ;P

dafni • 28 Jan 2017, 8:03 AM

@element Lucky you! If you look only the year I'm a rabbit, but if you properly check the lunar calendar I'm a tiger ^^

shirona • 28 Jan 2017, 8:05 AM

@dafni Tiger! Nice 😊 I'm probably monkey but noticed I have better luck on rooster years.

dafni • 28 Jan 2017, 8:11 AM

@element it goes on when you have the b'day, if it's January/February you need to control when it was celebrated... Rooster luck power xD

thursdays_dove • 28 Jan 2017, 9:18 AM

This creature is awesome! The detail is incredible. Great job on this one.

nine • 28 Jan 2017, 9:28 AM

Yes! Finally a creature for CNY, and for my zodiac as well! This creature is absolutely gorgeous. 😊

jello • 28 Jan 2017, 9:38 AM

And about ten more years for the goat. Ugh...

say • 28 Jan 2017, 10:05 AM

so regal!

shrimp • 28 Jan 2017, 10:09 AM

@jellifysh I would have to wait 12 for the horse XD

novrain62 • 28 Jan 2017, 10:29 AM

I am the Tiger and so is my son ❤ī¸

novrain62 • 28 Jan 2017, 10:32 AM

We have to wait til 2022 for it to be Year of the Tiger again. My 60th Year 😱

ethereality • 28 Jan 2017, 10:37 AM

NO PLEASE NOT SEASONAL ☚ī¸

sek • 28 Jan 2017, 10:48 AM

oh its so beautifully decorated i love it,(mines a horse) 😋

ethereality • 28 Jan 2017, 11:06 AM

It's so beautiful but please NO MORE seasonals. It doesn't even make sense because next year is the year of the dog...

polaroid • 28 Jan 2017, 11:16 AM

It's so pretty ❤ī¸ Love it ❤ī¸ I agree with @motivecat though, why re-release a rooster during the year of the dog? 😋

glados • 28 Jan 2017, 11:24 AM

happy lunar new year everyone. (:

firebreath5432 • 28 Jan 2017, 11:40 AM

Ah, gotta get one today. Happy lunar new year!

spiritkoi • 28 Jan 2017, 3:00 PM

ladybugheart • 28 Jan 2017, 3:02 PM

I still haven't gotten a Luryuken. I'm getting stressed out, here...

arvak • 28 Jan 2017, 11:05 PM

I know there is plenty of time, but the cave is so off for me lately. 70 attempts so far today & not 1 of these or Luryuken (today).
