Lutari Day Roundup; Tongi Beads Made Tradeable

Posted by Kenny on April 20, 2026, 4:05 pm NST

Happy Lutari Day! Here's what's new for our lutrine friends.



Strawberry


If you plan on creating a Strawberry Lutari, check out our Modeling page, as we'll need your help!

A Forest Mage outfit is stocking over at Cog's Togs.




A book is available at the Magical Bookshop.


Meanwhile, a loofah is available at the Grooming Parlour.


TNT have made the previously no-trade Tongi Beads for the Lutari Talisman tradeable...sort of! At the time of writing, they can be listed on the Trading Post, but cannot be placed into your Shop or listed on the Auction House.


TNT has also completed the HTML5 conversion on some previous pet day wearables as well, so they should now appear on your customisations again!


Lastly, a Pet Day mystery capsule is available at the NC Mall:

That Chill Surfer Lutari looks oddly familiar

I was hoping for Valentine or Void for a new color. :/ Always next year I guess....

"why yes i do surf directly on top of the sand"

That Smug Surfer Lutari
by kacheekfan96 on April 20, 2026 5:08 PM NST
I wonder if they made the Tongi Beads tradable because of Lutari Island possibly being opened soon?
by puffkins2000 on April 20, 2026 5:11 PM NST
The way they waited until lutari day to make Tongi beads tradeable 😭 kudos for the commitment (and yay tradeable tongi!!)
by bonju on April 20, 2026 5:27 PM NST
The cloak on the forest mage outfit looks very "1990's gradient" and not in a good way. The distortion on the mushrooms at the hem is also off-putting. The staff is odd, too.

Other than that everything for this pet day is quite good. I'm not a strawberry fan, but if I were that color is exceptionally well drawn here. Love several items from the cap. Really excited about the Tongi beads!!

Overall quite a successful Lutari Day.

I really like the forest mage outfit. And very happy they made tong beads tradeable!
by larimar on April 20, 2026 6:03 PM NST
wow, some actual clothing... too bad they're rendered so poorly... the cloak is so stiff like cardboard. and the staff is so weird... a spindly stick with two huge eggs just balancing on top? why even eggs? just make a normal staff...

the chill lutari is cool... but it also just makes me wish we got that wig and outfit and some green contacts like that for regular converted lutari...
but also why does he have teeth like that? XD i thought it was tyrannian at first.
by inkpot on April 20, 2026 6:05 PM NST
That Gigachad Lutari though. I'm howling lmbo

is it a reference to someone?
by neo111186 on April 20, 2026 6:18 PM NST
Oh, dang it... I really need that surfer Lutari. It fits my guy so well. The sunglasses, wig and mouth even line up with it correctly! WHAT?!

Also, YAY! I can finally get my last Tongi Bead eventually!
by powerwingamber on April 20, 2026 6:23 PM NST
despite never having met a Strawberry fan, i am happy for them that at least strawberry lutari looks kinda good.

yeah this is a dig at how bad strawberry ogrin was i will never let them forget it.
by graevyard on April 20, 2026 6:32 PM NST
It's a little busy but imo one of the better Strawberry coloured pets.
by andrew on April 20, 2026 6:38 PM NST
Still no Valentine otter
by rainbow_lutari_ on April 20, 2026 6:47 PM NST
There's an artist on Neopets that does their Lutaris in that specific chill beach style though I've seen it off-site too, I wonder if this was a reference?
by pixelpyramid on April 20, 2026 6:54 PM NST
Surfer boy wont get very far surfin on the sand
by sparky on April 20, 2026 6:57 PM NST
Seems like a pretty normal Lutaro Day. Kinda sad [proceeds to omit I mistyped Lutari cuz It sounds fun like that xD ]
by maninshi on April 20, 2026 7:14 PM NST
Love the forest mage outfit so much that I went and made a lil fella just to dress him up in it
by kellzthedwarf on April 20, 2026 7:18 PM NST
Ouch, that cape is brutal. Straight and stiff, plus it crashes through the screen-right hand.
by sakaarson on April 20, 2026 9:29 PM NST
I have a military surplus wool cloak from eastern europe. It does have slits you can stick your hand and arm through. So perhaps the yellow part would be visible in the way that it is if the hand was put through and curling around? But the shading under it would not be. It looks weird in any case.

Most of the strawberry flowers look like they are colorforms laid on top of a two-D image.

The artists think that lutaris are disney-chipmunks, apparently.
by solsticesprite on April 20, 2026 9:38 PM NST
An actual outfit for a pet day? Neat!
Execution? ...not so great. The cape has multiple issues, and I wish they'd split the shirt/pants/gloves into 3 separate items. It wouldn't be hard since it's species specific!

And copy-paste-ness of the flowers aside, Strawberry is well done! I kinda wish they'd retroactively give other strawberries the additional items. c:

Also yay tongi beads! They'll be incredibly expensive I'm sure, but a great start!
by goldennightfox on April 20, 2026 10:01 PM NST
To be honest, I kind of like the Lutari Forest Mage cloak. I don't mind its stiffness at all. What I wonder about though.. Why are the hands different? They're part of the outfit underneath, but.. why? The outfit doesn't change the head, feet or tail, so why change the hands? Was this borrowed from something else?

Strawberry is pretty alright. Not too busy (like some other fruit-flavoured pets). Could have done without the flowers, but at least the tail-accessory is removable.

That surfer.. Duuuude.. It must be based off of something or someone! Too bad the outfit doesn't really work without the surfboard and the surfboard (while non-species specific) doesn't really work on its own..

I'd call this a good Lutari day ^^

I can't believe Owen Wilson has a Neosona now /j
by solarboyaaron on April 21, 2026 2:39 AM NST
Oh, so we're doing NPCs now.
Why is it not just a token?
by nobody on April 21, 2026 3:06 AM NST
I'm so underwhelmed by both the color and the outfit. Just like last year... when are we going to get a mythical, eternal, or Studio Ghibli inspired outfit?! I'm starting to think Neopets hates Lutari's.
by dieavrildie on April 21, 2026 5:46 AM NST
I think the nc lutadi looks great!
by azrulen on April 21, 2026 7:37 AM NST
Love the color, I kinda don't mind the outfit? I don't understand why the pieces can't be separate (maybe they only commit to a certain number of pieces per pet day but I swear this hasn't been incredibly consistent)
I usually don't really care about capsule prizes/the species outfit in the capsule but the art is kinda cute ;;
by mercy_graves on April 21, 2026 7:48 AM NST
Completely unrelated but is anyone else suddenly unable to move gift boxes into SDB?
by samistarsyou on April 21, 2026 8:22 AM NST
@samistarsyou: Hmm, seems to work fine for me.
by apophis324 on April 21, 2026 9:21 AM NST
mfw the line weight on the tail bauble makes it incredibly clear that the assets are just reused and resized instead of matching the rest of the drawn pb items
by purrmeister on April 21, 2026 9:34 AM NST
@apophis324 - Thanks for checking on your end! Maybe mine is glitchy today. When I click on a gift box, it just tells me that I have nothing to send. There's no option to move it. I also tried with the quickstock option and it doesn't even show up on there. Oh well - another day, another glitch Not a big deal!
by samistarsyou on April 21, 2026 9:38 AM NST
What is that nc lutari?? Its so ugly
by marduk on April 21, 2026 2:36 PM NST
Pretty solid pet day.
by 101monica101 on April 21, 2026 3:36 PM NST
Lmao, Lutari outfits already offering them for a million neopoints or over. Geez
by maninshi on April 21, 2026 9:21 PM NST
Loving the colors on the outfit but the hair and teeth ruined it for me..
by stuffie on April 22, 2026 6:33 AM NST
@samistarsyou just checking, did you toggle to the NC section of your quickstock? there's now a toggle there just like in the inventory.
by kenny on April 22, 2026 7:28 AM NST JN Staff
WELP that might have been my problem! I didn't realize we had a toggle now! Thanks @Kenny!
by samistarsyou on April 22, 2026 9:30 AM NST
The Chill Surfer Lutari looks great!
by gbfernitz on April 22, 2026 10:36 AM NST
I raised an eyebrow at first, but now I think it was a great idea to make the pet day cap outfit into a limited edition pet style istead. See: pet styles are species specific and nc items by default, and besides that, I think I've never seen someone actually use the previous, regular, outfits. Since they cover the whole body and don't leave much space to further customization, it's much better to make them straight out tokens with more personality.
I liked this surfer guy overall, just would prefer if the color of the claws was a bit lighter.
Happy for the beads too. It would be cool, though, if they were part of the stamp album instead of the talisman, which is useless in my opinion.
by kirisame on April 22, 2026 12:42 PM NST
@purrmeister Lol, I noticed that too!
