Now don't get me wrong, I'm alright with the new LPS and I think the bodies are adorable and they have some great pet ideas. I just can't seem to get past their eyes though, I think they're so creepy and make the pets look stoned! Am I the only one who thinks this?  |

Hehe, I think they're adorable. XD The chihuahua kinda scares me though (but I still want him!), and the ferret looks like he's either stoned or hasn't slept in a month. XDDD

I don't like the eyes so much either. It was the first thing about them that I noticed and didn't like. Everything else is cute. Some of the newer models have better eyes, imo.

What I wasn't crazy about was the lower eyelid thing going on, for example, on the first single pack bunny. He looks like he either has a black eye or is really... um.... chem friendly.
But it does seem like the eyes are getting much, much better. If you look at the cockatoo compared to the canaries (blue or pink), there is a HUGE improvement. *fingers cross*

Actually at first the eyes is what I didn't like about them and then after my daughter got her first one they really grew on me and now I think they are all just adorable. I do care for some of them more than others, like Silver said, the newer ones have way better eyes but I can't help myself, I want them all! LOL!

Just a little reply to mention that I'm slowly being converted thanks to you all XD
Some of the eyes on some of the pets still look weird to me (especially the older new pets) but I'm starting to really like some of the newer ones, especially the huskies and the collie. ^^

Mwahahaha, that is our evil plan, to get everyone addicted to them. LOL. I am glad that you are starting to like them.

Oh gosh, I love the eyes! I don't know if everyone knows this, but they are supposed to be a reference to the sad-eyed dog paintings by Keane and the like, from back in the 1960s. Those were getting popular again, and I think that's why the LPS eyes were made to look this way. Here's an example of a Keane-style bank from eBay, in case anyone wants comparison:  Add in a dash of Keane, a dash of The Dog, and a dash of bobbleheads, and LPS becomes one of the most charming collectibles in years!!  |
