Some thoughts on 2017 VIP

Ganis
Not sure how many skilled gani artists classic has, but It would be neat to see some one-time VIP gani items spread out here and there. People really seem to love funny little animations like the butt shake, jiggle, etc.
some ideas:
- october: holding a glowing pumpkin
- holding a flapping chicken pet above your head (like zelda - I think that would be fine considering the first VIP item was navi)
- moonwalk dance
- jumping jacks
- sitting down eating spaghetti

Juggles
Shouldnt be a common VIP item, that way people will still buy juggles from nexus, but might be a nice way to spice things up.

Jump ropes
Special jump ropes are rarely sold, so it would be cool to see a some as VIP items.

Morphs
- Water Morphs. These morphs would work on land and in water. That includes flying or water animation. This would give them special value.
- Glowing morphs. It was done for Navi, and I think modern players would be really into it.
- Costumes. Sure, I hated costumes back when they were a regular for VIP, but now that the GAT is packed with amazing pixel artists, I think its a great opportunity for some less realistic, for fun items.

Temporary Items
These items would only be in the players inventory when subscribed, they are the same for every VIP member. If the temp item was released in February, and someone buys VIP in march, that item would still appear in the temp folder.
- Sign item only available while subscribed. It could say VIP on it and could be held like an umbrella (able to move and sit while holding it)

Furniture
A treat for those house enthusiasts. An uncommon VIP reward could be a furniture set.
This would include a unique couch, table, chair and maybe a small decorative item. Since it would be a pretty good deal I think alot of players would go for it.

oh yeah, and the items would sell for 0 gralats since they were free.

Subcategory: Pets
Decorative item could be replaced by a pet.

VIP Shop
VIP subscribed only shop that could be located outside Graal City. In this store there could be special items for sale. The shop would act more like a themed shop (nexus, crypt, rev) and only be open a handful of times a year. The items would be priced at below average.
- Hats
Animated?
- Food
The food could give a special status effect, so players would be more likely to buy alot and collectors will kill for it after a year or so.
- Heads for 8k
- Indexed Bodies?

Accessories
Ol' West recently introduced a new item type called accessories. I haven't played Ol' West since they came out but they looked pretty cool. I think adding accessories to the VIP shop or as an item for the month is a nice idea. Tbh I think accessories should just be added to the game in general, it adds alot more opportunity to create new things and adds another layer of customization to the player.
