Radical Shining
★★★★✩
It's a pretty good item. I like the forehead jewel, earring, Chinese characters, skirt, and arms poses. The fact that the arms come in blue could be useful for making an avatar based on a Hindu god or such. The colors are also nice overall.

Year of the Horse
★★★★✩
I absolutely love the horse/unicorn! I also like how many different versions there are. I expected there to be like three, so that was a really nice surprise. As for the rest of the item, I think it goes well with the cowboy/cowgirl theme. I'm not sure if I would use most of the poses much outside of a cowboy/cowgirl themed avatar however, except for the horse/unicorn and belt poses. On the other hand, I do like it when an item is made with a similar theme to a past item. For example, I think this item could go well with Rootin' Tootin' due to the similar themes.

Year of the Snake
★★★✩✩
I feel like this item is somewhat underwhelming. I appreciate the smaller accessories and the fact that it would probably pair well with the Snake Charmer item, but I feel like maybe it could have used one more pose to kind of tie it all together, if that makes sense. Maybe one larger pose or a pose around the middle of the body could have helped.

Year of the Pig
★★★★★
I feel like this is a pretty solid item, so I don't really have anything negative to say about it. It has a good variety of poses, and I like the fact that the bow from the pig suit is also available to be worn on its own. The poses are nice, and I love the little pig emoji bubbles.

Year of the Monkey
★★★★✩
I like this item a lot. To me it seems like it could be based on Sun Wukong, the monkey king, but I could be wrong. The only reason I really know about that story is because of the Korean show New Journey to the West after all. It would make sense though given the fact that it's a Chinese story and the theme for the orbs this time is the Chinese zodiac. I kind of wish it had at least one more pose since I like the them and it only has three poses, but I like the poses that it does have. I'm not sure if I'll find much use for the hat, but I can definitely see myself using the skirt and staff. Also, having items based on things from different cultures/countries and historical/traditional clothing in general is something that I like. Although, I saw some people mention that they would have liked a pose with a monkey, and I do agree that that would have been nice. You can never go wrong with more animals.

Year of the Rooster
★★★★★
Like the Year of the Pig, this is another one that I feel is pretty solid. I feel like it's definitely a good representation of a rooster. You have a rooster's legs, the wings, the tail feathers, the face in the form of a mask, and the rooster itself. The color combos are all pretty nice as well.

Year of the Goat
★★★★✩
First of all, I love items that give you the bottom half of an animal, so I'm definitely a fan of the half-goat pose. The legs look kind of weird to me though, especially after looking at some pictures of goats on Google. Actually, even compared to the legs of the goat pose from the item they seem odd. Speaking of which, I really like the goat pose. Like I said in my Year of the Monkey review, you can never go wrong with more animals. My favorite pose is probably the patch of grass and flowers on the ground. I really like scenery items and such. The little leaves on the head pose is a cute touch as well.

x5 uniquely recolored/patterned commons
★★★★★
I always love seeing which commons get recolored, and the ones from this batch are all great. I don't really have much to critique here.

Year of the Rabbit
★★★★★
This is one of the items I was the most excited for after seeing the preview in the announcement. The reason I was excited for it was because I loved the eye pose. Then I found out that the eye pose was actually a facial pose complete with a colorful nose and mouth. That was disappointing. Very disappointing. Generally speaking, I don't like when an item has a pose that has all the facial features combined, unless there are also poses with them separated. In this case, the fact that the noses and mouths are the colors that they are makes it even worse. If they were at least default skin tones then maybe it wouldn't be so bad, but they aren't. Now, moving on to the sweater pose. All three colors of the sweater pose seem to use the same skin tone for the hand. I think it would be better if each color came with a different skin tone, like, for example, the legs of the Quinn item, or if it was like, for example, the Radical Shining, where each color comes with a few different skin tones. Other than those two things, the item is cute, and it will probably go well with the other rabbit themed items on the site~ With the new changes to the item I think it's perfect. Not only was a pose added that has the eyes separated from the face, but there are even poses with the left and right eyes separated as well. The ears were also separated from the hair and each other, which will make them much easier to use. It's also great that more skin tones were added for the hand!

Year of the Dragon
★★★★✩
I'll start with the hair. I like the fact that the hair and ponytail are separate poses, and I like the gradient coloring of the hair. I kind of wish the hair came without the ears though, and the ears have the same problem that the Year of the Rabbit had originally where the ears are the same skin tone for every hair color. The coat is nice. I like how it flares out at the bottom. The leg mods pose is also pretty good. I always enjoy leg mods. I love the sword as well, and the tail and top pose seem fine.

Year of the Ox
★★★★✩
The jacket is my favorite pose from this item. Other than that, the other poses are definitely very representative of an ox, and I'm sure I can get some use out of them.

Year of the Rat
★★★★★
I like this item a lot. The jacket pose with the hands in the pockets is particularly nice, and I also like the base, hat, and ears. I think all of the poses fit the item well, and the choice of colors is nice.

Year of the Tiger
★★★★★
This might be my favorite orb item from this batch. I love the colors, anything using the rainbow color schemes automatically gains bonus points in my book, and all of the poses. I also love gradients. The ears, tail, legs, shirt, hair, and mouth are all great! Also, I love cats, so there's a good chance that I'm going to like any item based on any type of cat~

Year of the Dog
★★★★✩
It's cute for sure, but like some others said it does seem a bit simple. I like the tail, ears, and furry flames poses the most.

Sightless Monk
★★★★★
I don't actually own this item yet, but it looks pretty good from what I've seen of it. Looking at the preview image in the OP, the bag pose is probably my favorite~
