Neat stuff!
I'll probably need to get Ylanas Blaster (IDB says it probably does a fair amount of icons, and more important, it belongs to an Acara, LOL). Not sure what else I'll do, except I'll buy the Ylana action figure with NP when it gets a bit cheaper. Honestly, I hoard plot points so they'll probably just sit around for a long time...

There's some cute prizes in there. I got 6000 points, which is fine by me as I didn't get very far into the plot. I'll probably end up buying one of the wearable items that I have enough for. The Resistance Headquarters Background isn't bad, none of my pets are spacey though so I'm not sure it'd be of much use. The Resistance Honor Badge looks like it'd be pretty small, not sure about that one. The Miniature Gorix Spaceship is super cute but it'll probably be a boring trinket. I think I'll wait on previews before I grab one =)
Oh! And if somebody owns one of the following could they please confirm the item type? The database is currently going by what the prize page said but things like those Plushies shouldn't be Toys!

I think I'm going to get all the wearables (but I'm going to wait and see if they go buyable). That will still leave me with 21350 points.
Pity there is no furniture/gardening.

I'm gonna have to hold off buying anything again! I have enough points to buy a Robot zapper, but only just, and since it's non-tradeable I have to get it this way. One day I'm sure I'll want a Robot, so I'll have to get everything else with NP.
I must say I think they did brilliantly to make this Robot zapper, best idea yet! Here's hoping it's not an April Fool's day joke

I can't decide what to buy with my 6,360 points. What would you reccomend? I also got this Something has happened!

I'm very pleased at the fast turnover of plot-end to prizes. Well done TNT 
I'm debating between the blaster + some miscellaneous clothing, or the robot zapper, hmmm.

I can't speak for the future, but if you want wearables and have enough plot points to buy Ylanas Blaster, I believe you can buy the Blaster and sell it for enough NP to buy all the wearables and change. I know it would've worked last night, and Ylanas Blaster's price is flat from where it was 14 hours ago, while the wearables have gone down, I believe.
Long-term, some expect Ylanas Blaster to go down in value, but most expect it to inflate, perhaps beyond realistic expectations. Until TNT comes out with a new, cheaper, better weapon, though, 800K doesn't seem an unreasonable price (I think they went up to 750K late last night though they appear to be back down in the 600Ks now).
Sorry you can't get the uber prize, Gooly. I'm a bit miffed that I didn't fight a BIT more to be able to afford a Ylanas Blaster for investment purposes (instead of just to use as my own weapon), but that's how it goes I suppose.

I LOVE how fast these came out! 
I have enough for the One-Use Robotification Zappermajig, but I don't think I'd use is. I'd buy it in a second if it was tradeable, I love to hoard my prizes and plot points. That would be one super expensive item if that were the case. 
I bought the Buzzler (love petpets) and a laser cannon already for a good price on the shop wiz. I'll want all the plushies, and maybe some wearables too. But I always buy some, and wait a long time to spend my points. I'll probably end up spending my plot points on the blaster, and buying whatever else I want.

Ah, Nynaeve710, a fellow hoarder!
But you reminded me--the Buzzler is just a REGULAR space petpet (I think)--please don't shell out plot points for it. Yesterday I saw it for only 10K Neopoints. O_O

It went down to 10k!  The reason prices were so low was because last night there was a glitch. When you clicked on someone's store through their lookup or show wiz, you were taken to your store. People were able to price and put things in their stores, but no one could buy anything. So the prices went to rock bottom.
It's very disappointing that the petpet isn't a retired one, it's just a regular petpet? 
Yay for a fellow hoarder! I'm a really bad hoarder, but prizes and neopoints are the worst for me. My husband likes to look through my gallery and SDB and ask me where I got the things, and how much they're worth. I usually have no idea!

How odd; it was well before midnight that I saw some for 10K NP. O_O (I thought the Shop Wiz problems were due to the April Fool's thing but I guess I really wasn't buying anything yesterday evening...)
At any rate, they are still quite buyable and can be painted already, so I'm pretty sure they're just normal petpets. (Someone on the NeoBoards said they were normal too, LOL.) I wouldn't bother getting one with plot points when for 5K more points you can get a weapon that is currently 700K+ NP.
I still have all my Tale of Woe points, LOL, and 50 LDP points for no good reason. Still have some of my Lost Isle plot points too. I have issues, I suppose. My SDB is MOSTLY items I actually like, but that's only because I finally got the packrat avvie and tried to clean it out. Now it has just over 1K items.

Wow, Maraquan? I thought I took a long time, I still am sitting on my Lost Ilse and Altador Cup 2 points. I should get them figured out and into my gallery.
Wow Taradith, you cleaned it out? I need to make myself do that too. I just keep random things. Things I think are cute, weapons I get, Tarla prizes, random food. And I have no plans to do anything with it. 
Anyway, I'll probably get 2 blasters. The only problem is that everyone seems to be buying them. So I'll wait about a year and see what happens.

Oh dear; I forgot all about the Altador Cup II--yeah, I have my meager point collection for that too, LOL. I'm pretty sure I already wasted all my Maraqua points though (literally wasted; I bought a weapon that wasn't worth much, I think, and then sold low ).
And my SDB still has quite a bit in it, no worries--I just got rid of the things I didn't love. Hence why I still have many pages of items, LOL.

Hey, the One-Use Robotification Zappermajig seems to be 45000 points, not 1000.
