I like it a lot, looks like it's flaking away, almost as if it's undead. I like the change to the arm length between versions, too. I like both versions, but the old one looks a little more generic with those longer arms; in the new art the arms look less useful, or more vestigial, which just adds to the idea of being a mutant, really.

Sorry if I'm just turning this into a mutant thread! I don't mean to derail, honest!
Big agree. It's a shame because Draiks have a lot of potential to be creepy or intimidating.

I love Godori - it's fun and mindless and I got the avatar in the couple of days when it came out because I COULD.
Hanafuda for the WIN.
This is actually kind of unpopular: Some UC designs were definitely improved upon in the conversion, or the difference is too marginal for their value.
- Mara gelert
- mara grarrl (the version right before the UC version was tight, tho)
- baby eyrie
- most of the robots
Also? I just DO NOT get the fascination with sponge pets, converted or otherwise. They're so ugly and boring! And the UC ones take an insane amount of effort to get, and it's not worth it. Literally any other pet is better.
My most unpopular opinion is that Ogrins are CUTE I used to love them as a kid. Their big feet and big eyes are so endearing to me, idek. I feel like they lost all their potential cuteness from conversion, other than babies.
I used to love this in particular
Also I agree on generally disliking Blumaroos - their noses always weirded me out. Their charm point was their heart feet, and you don't see them anymore

Usuls are really freaking ugly.
Also, I hate the Faeries. Not the color, that's fine, but just the Faeries of Neopia. They all seem like stuck-up, haughty bitches and I've loathed them ever since I was a kid. I reject almost every faerie quest I'm given because I don't want to help them.
^^ Thanks to Menine for the icon & Gremlin for this userbar!
See what I meant about all the post-customization Mutants being badass? :p
There's a lot of great ones from before it happened (my very first pet was a Mutant Techo, I love the pre-revamp weird gnarly gecko), I actually like the Xweetok because it went from "fluffy chipmunk" to "weird neon gnarly rat" and that's awesome, but.. yeah. The Shoyru is just a slightly lumpier Shoyru, the Zafara is just kind of scaly and segmented now, the Lupe has... weird metal parts?? At least the Eyrie got to be cool too.
The concept art + older art for Mutant Grundos is p neat though, I wish they could be more like that.
and yeah Usuls /are/ kind of ugly, they're just... generic soft "feminine" squirrel things. Barbie-doll-face-lookin-ass.
Xweetoks are way more visually-interesting in comparison and actually look like fantasy rodent things; I feel they're kind of underrated and have a lot of design potential? Everyone fawns over Lupes and Kougras and stereotypical charismatic animal pets, but, like, Xweetoks (and Eyries, best species 10/10) are slept on.
I have no particular opinion on Sponge pets but the fact that they made them UCs in generic poses is really hilarious to me + they're... sapient sponge pets.
Like, yeah, nowadays that isn't weird with stuff like Toy and Oil Paint and all the other "artificial material" pet colors, but back when Sponge was first a thing, it was hilarious. Imagine just being a freaking sponge.
