The Neopies Awards


The Eleventh Annual(ish) Neopies - 2023

The Neopies have returned once again, with voting running from February 1, 2023 through February 24, 2023 (with the last new category posted on the 22nd). As in the past, Neopians will determine the best (and worst) from the previous Neopian year. The 21 categories this year are selected by TNT, and the Neopies Host will present you with the finalists in each category.

To close out the Neopies celebration, the VIP Raffle for NC items returns starting on February 7th.

Voting

You have 3 days to vote in each category before the winner is announced, and there are 21 categories in total. Visit the official Neopies FAQ for the voting rules. Voting on the first day of each of the 21 categories being available will qualify you for a bonus final prize. 'Day One' will run for two days, from the 1st through the 2nd of February.

The Finalists and Winners

Here is a list of the finalists in each category, with the winner highlighted as they are announced.


February 1st/2nd - Best Advent Comic


Day 4

What better way to introduce a new, snowy friend than to wrap them up for a fun surprise?!

Winner!


Day 5

Disciplining a cheater can be hard, so sometimes parents have to get creative!

Day 23-25

An emotion-packed love letter to Neopia in comic form that offers us a glimpse of how the various Heroes of Neopia are spending their holidays.


February 3rd - Best New NP Item


Detective Kari Charm

We can all feel safe with this item on the case! Perhaps if you partner up with the charming detective Kari you may win the Neopies someday, too!


Flan

Everyone loves the custardy goodness of a wiggly-jiggly flan!

Winner!


Nuria Faerie Snowglobe

This hot snowglobe, besides being a bit of an oxymoron, has really heated up this competition! Good thing Nuria isn't the kind of faerie to back away from a challenge!


Twisted Roses Fan Usuki Bobblehead

One can't help but headbang alongside this item to some of the best music in Neopia!


February 4th - Best NP Wearable


Corner Creature

This creature may look scary, but if you vote for it, it may want to be your friend...or at the very least, it won't attack you!


Illusens Nature Lanterns

It can't get much better than light-up mushrooms in cute little jars! Illusen really said, "Give them cottagecore" this year!


Pirate Hat with Trinkets

Dozens if not hundreds of Neopians almost immediately set sail for the high seas once this little beauty hit the market!


Progress Pride Flag Tapestry

This lovely item and many like it should have been available long ago, but now that it's here, we can all shed a tear of happiness! Love is love, and all love is beautiful!

Winner!


February 5th - Best Advent Prize Wearable


Gothic Christmas Tree

Rocking around the Gothic Christmas Tree caused so many Neopets' to have a happy holiday!

NeoQuest Board Game FG

With this item, many Neopians enjoyed some of their favourite pastimes: board games and going on quests!


Snow Frosted Winter Garland

The design on the garland sure was something different. While the pine needles, pinecones, berries, and snow are fake decorations, there was something just so lifelike about them!

Talia [sic] and Snowbunny (Day 2)

A peaceful moment in the snow to prove that joy can be found even in the coldest of places!

Winner!

Snow Talpidat (Day 15)

There isn't a soul alive that could look at that adorable face and not melt instantly!


Avalanche (Day 27)

Running straight away from your problems won't fix anything. But maybe running left or right could've helped here...


February 7th - Best Advent Prize


Beelzebug

This little buddy may be a bit bigger than most Petpetpets, but there is definitely enough room in our hearts for it!

Winner!


Charybdis Seashell

They say if you put your ears up to it, you can hear the sound of a strange creature lurking in the ocean, waiting to devour you whole...and if not, it will at least make a pretty addition to your album!


Christmas Pizza

Why bother with a complicated holiday meal when you can just order a pizza?!


French Toast Horn

Everyone loves a pun you can eat, but this one you can also play a delicious tune on!

There are two types of friends when it comes to sleepovers. The kind who keeps things quiet when someone falls asleep...and the kind who doesn't!


April - 1457

The Cybunny was a bit shocked when she walked into her living room, but in the end, the true prank was on the Bori himself when he realised how expensive it was to pay for all the plushies!


August - 1461

Everyone thought it was a little odd when Maraqua opened up a new laundry mat, but it turned out to be a lot of fun!


November - 1464

Slorgs in Space! It was supposed to be the top-ranking film of the year. Unfortunately, the Slorgs didn't realise they could just use CGI for the whole 'Space' part!

Winner!


February 9th - Best Site Event


Advent Calendar

Heralded by Neopians as one of the greatest Advent Calendars of all time, the Y24 AC came with some big changes! Prizes reintroduced rare and retired items into the economy and included more new wearables and Battledome weapons than previous Advent Calendars had seen in years. The daily content of the Advent Calendar was also tweaked, now consisting of a blend of animated comics and gifs as well as colouring pages and wallpapers.

Winner!


Altador Cup XVII

This year's Altador Cup saw two new players added to the roster who immediately became fan favourites despite their opposing personalities! The tournament itself was highly competitive, with Darigan Citadel taking home the gold for the first time since Altador Cup II.


April Fools

The DungDash delivery service had citizens across Neopia splitting their sides as they read through the promotional copy for the mobile app and restaurant reviews. With this comical take on contemporary exploitation consumerism, one has to wonder how in the world TNT will top itself next year!


Festival of Neggs

After the previous year's exhilarating events, we didn't think the Festival of Neggs could get more exciting, but boy were we wrong! The Y24 Festival of Neggs saw a change of scenery and even involved a mystery that culminated in the discovery of a brand new petpet, the Talpidat!


February 10th - Best Petpet Colour


Christmas Cofferling

While this Cofferling may not have any treasure to protect, it will still most certainly try and chomp down on anyone who attempts to unwrap it!


Mutant Xepru

With their terrifying new look, Mutant Xeprus were thought to possibly have a drastic change in personality, but they seemed to remain as cheerful and elegant as ever!


Spring Talpidat

Just when we all thought the newest little Petpet couldn't get any cute they went and put a flower crown on them!

Candy Hissi

While this Hissi might look soft and gummy on the outside, we can guarantee that there is nothing but the strong and loving heart of a true friend on the inside!

Winner!


Steampunk Grundo

With a bit of an alien spin on Steampunk this Grundo showed up in style! Ready for both deep space and deep water exploration, there is nothing this Grundo cant do!


Wraith Nimmo

Shine bright like a crystal with this magnificent outfit! This outfit not only looks great by itself, but it leaves room for so much fun customisation around the crystals!

Dip & Bob Neggs

The NC component of the Festival of Neggs took a turn this year as it shifted from Dip & Dye Neggs to Dip & Bob Neggs with Vandebart Biggsby taking over the event.

Blumaroo in a Pool Gift Box Mystery Capsule

The Blumaroo in a Pool Gift Box Mystery Capsule made waves across Neopia as it proved that even while swimming, Blumaroos never stop bouncing!

This GBMC wasn't just popular with Neopians, as members of TNT were thrilled to see Meepits chewing on something other than our processors!


Springtime Baby Lupe Gift Box Mystery Capsule

This GBMC featured an adorable baby Lupe enjoying a nap in a freshly grown field! Might as well throw them a bone and vote for it!

Winner!
