Can you review the mega barnacle boy
(Doing a Pokemon review as there are no Neopet requests in the inbox right now.)
I've always liked Barbaracle, so I'm glad that A) it got a mega and B) its mega doesn't suck.
In fact, not only does its mega Not Suck, but it's actually really good. Barbacle's always had some very funky anatomy on account of being multiple Binacle (true to real-life barnacle colonies), so the mega cranks that up by giving it EIGHT (8) arms, in addition to its already-existing hand-head and legs. It gives it almost a biblical angel kind of vibe, makes it look cool, makes it distinct from regular Babaracle, and also looks cool. Did I mention it looks cool?
On top of that, the design has also been altered more to further make it feel more "mega" compared to regular Barbacle's design. The brown accents have been replaced with black, which increases the contrast greatly and makes the orange accents stand out more. The rock bases are thinner and it now has a bit of a "neck", making it subtly look more human. The bases also have cracks and spikes coming out of them, and all of its eyes have red pupils.
And the pièce de résistance—the hand-head is now making the horns sign, which seems to be a subtle pun on rock-and-roll (if that wordplay even works in Japanese) and just fits with the sheer insanity going on with this design. Honestly, I have no complaints with this one.
