Oh My Various Heathen Gods. Your Millennium Items. :O Can I Just Trade A Kidney For A Set? XD. Seriously,

Oh my various heathen gods. Your Millennium Items. :O Can I just trade a kidney for a set? XD. Seriously, incredible work. You really brought them to life, without murdering 99 people in a black magic ritual and melting their bodies into gold.

Ahh, thank you, Anon! Unfortunately, I cannot currently accept organs as payment.  ):

I work hard to make only certified cruelty-free 3D-printed props and I’m glad you appreciate my efforts!

#genocide free millennium items because you shouldn’t have to slaughter a village for some nice bling.

I’m glad you like it~! Everyone could use some Blue Eyes White Swag in their life~

Thank you http://vaguelygenius.tumblr.com for the vinyl blue eyes sticker, I found a good spot for it :)

I 3D-printed the first prototype of the Millennium Ring back in early 2013, so collecting the Items has taken me around two years. Not bad at all!

Find out more at my Millennium Items page, where you can see cool rotatable 3D models and find out how to paint your own Items!

You can always buy your own Millennium Items at my Shapeways shop, and they’ll ship it to you even if you live in Antartica! (8

That’s not an Easter egg!

Yooooo, so I was thinking about Cofagrigus and Yamask and how Cofagrigus eat gold and punish tombrobbers and worldwide cultural phenomena involving burying gold and precious metals and I came up with an interesting little theory.

So the Pokedex tells us that Yamask are spirits of the dead who remember their past lives and reminisce while looking at their eponymous masks. But where do they get these masks? There’s no evidence in canon that people bury their dead with golden masks of their faces, and, since the cultures and traditions of the people in Pokemon are largely based on real life, it is unlikely that people do so. So Yamask must either spontaneously create their own masks or perhaps get one from somewhere.

Now, have you heard of a title="Ooh, Wikipedia, how I crave your lover's embrace~!

Charon’s obol? It’s the coin the Ancient Greeks would bury with their dead so that the ferryman would give them a ride to the afterlife. Except the practice of people burying coins and other valuable goods with the dead existed before the myth was created and exists in almost every culture.

SO… what if the gold buried with their corpses was what the masks are made out of? A Cofagrigus might use their Mummify ability to transform and coat the skulls after eating enough gold. The golden mask features a closer resemblance to the Yamask’s original human form and makes an excellent shield when compared to a skull. If it requires crushing the skull into a more amenable shape… well, sacrifices must be made.

And so the coin would allow safe passage into the afterlife since it would serve as a coating for the shield Yamask will use during its new life.

And actually, wild Yamask sometimes carry Spell Tags that could be the remains of the cotton cocoon their mask was made in!
