Premium Transfers Fixed

After the addition of the 6th pet slot, Premium users found they were unable to transfer that 6th pet via the pound. This morning, hardtotame has posted on the Premium Neoboards to announce that the glitch has been fixed!
We recently fixed the bug preventing you from using your 6th pet slot for transfers, so this should be working fine for you now.(Some users have not been granted their monthly Premium collectable cards, for reference.)
Kakarot has been working on the bug with the premium cards. We'll let you know once it's fixed.
Mosaic and Burlap Activated

Mosaic and Burlap have now been activated and are available for the Gelert and Lenny respectively!
Despite a "Burlap Paint Brush" showing up as searchable on the Shop Wizard a few weeks back, it seems that these two new colours will only be available at the Lab Ray for now. It is currently unknown if a dip in the Rainbow Fountain will allow you to paint your Gelert Mosaic or your Lenny Burlap. (If you have a Gelert or Lenny and can verify if Mosaic or Burlap show up as options for you, please let us know in the comments!)
Which Neopet species are you most hoping will receive the option to paint themselves in these new colour options? Let us know in the comments!

Charity Corner Perks Shop Closing + Festival of Neggs Coming Soon
- Posted by Dave
- Posted on April 4, 2019, 5:48 pm NST
Two event-related announcements were made in the news update today!
Firstly, if you wish to spend any of your 2018 Charity Corner points on the 2018 perks, TNT is recommending you do so now. Although the news announcement doesn't mention this, TNT has stated multiple times that your 2018 points will rollover and be usable in the 2019 Charity Corner perks shop.
We suspect that the 2018 perks shop "closing" means that some perks may not make their return in the next version of the shop. Or, certain perk redemption limits may be "reset", allowing Neopians to redeem the perk for a second time in the 2019 version of the shop.
Long story short, if you've had your eye on something and want to ensure you receive it, redeem it sooner than later!
For a full guide to the 2018 perks, visit our perks guide:
Secondly, the Festival of Neggs has been announced to be making a return as well! Easter is April 21st this year, so we expect that event to begin within the next two weeks. No official dates are known yet—so stay tuned!

The annual Festival of Neggs has launched today! The event will run through April 23rd.
To begin, you must register at the Festival of Neggs hub. Then, Day 1's clue leads to the Snowager.
Mysterious Magic Neggs also makes a return as this year's Neocash component.
The event FAQ confirms that there will be a "day and a half" for Day 1. So, you have until April 9th at 11:59 PM NST to find the first Negg.

TNT Comic Con Update
- Posted by Herdy
- Posted on April 19, 2019, 2:02 pm NST
This week's editorial has been released, and features a special message from Scrappy about this year's San Diego Comic Con in July:
We'll give you any updates when they are available, but as a reminder last year's tickets sold out very fast. The Neopets Party is unlikely to require a Comic Con pass, but attending the booth itself will need a valid Comic Con pass, which are not available on the day of the convention. For those attending, the last two times Neopets has attended, they have been marked under a different name on the official maps -- we will give more information closer to the time.
Hi Neopians! Very exciting announcement here, Neopets is coming back to San Diego Comic Con for the second year in a row! Along with our booth inside Comic Con, we are going to have a Neopets Party on Friday, July 19th to celebrate our upcoming 20th Anniversary of Neopets! More details will be coming very soon but wanted to give everyone a heads up in case you are planning on being there or around there during that time. There will be lots of exclusive content, fun Neopian activities and of course, some of the members of TNT! We hope to be able to see you there!!
