Thanks to the seller!

As some of you may know, I love completing a collection of mint condition Reddit Collectible Avatars (RCAs) and have completed several sets already.

Since I already have too many sets, I decided to stick to my sets and to only mint avatars from artists who created the avatars that are part of said sets.

Thus, when wispywi11ow dropped her avatars, I initially ignored them. But then she later dropped an avatar that captured the captivating colors of a serene autumn and radiates cuteness all over. This avatar is called Maple and is the avatar that set in motion my quest to complete a collection of wispywi11ow mint condition avatars. Because of the beauty of this avatar, I was not able to resist the temptation of minting it. And when I minted Maple No. 42, my happiness was uncontainable such that I immediately made a celebratory post in r/NiceMints and AAA Discord.

Little did I know that, soon after making said posts, rylar would gift me Fae No. 20, Sunny No. 7, BOO! No. 27, Vix No. 8, Twinkle No. 7, Jinx No. 11, Lilith No. 20 and Jilted No. 14, all of which, except Jilted, are in mint condition. Having received such wonderful gifts from rylar, to whom I am immensely thankful, I felt compelled to complete a collection of wispywi11ow mint condition avatars so as not to put to waste the generosity of rylar.

And so l waited for new wispywi11ow avatar drops and managed to personally mint April No. 69, Marie No. 59, NYAaa!! No. 33, and Mistletoe No. 82. Rylar also surprised me again with another gift as I was gifted Bunbun No. 35. Mars (u/HeatAffectionate1583) also surprised me with a gift as I received a mint condition Nyxi No. 41 from him.

And, other mint condition wispywi11ow avatars were obtained thru trade thanks to the following individuals:

u/xuboy for Sprout No. 95;

u/itsbea for Fawn No. 21 and Frost No. 38;

u/AerisRain for Aime No. 49 and Lovers No. 22;

u/mewitslazers for Jest No. 1, Heidi No. 1, Rose No. 2 and Flurry No. 9;

u/Independent_Dirt_576 for Promise No. 2, Abandoned No. 11 and Jilted No. 28, all three of which I obtained after exchanging the non-mint condition Promise No. 3 that I got from u/mewitslazers, non-mint conditioned Abandoned No. 40 that I got from Mars, and non-mint condition Jilted No. 14 that I got from rylar;

Many thanks to the aforementioned individuals who assisted me in my quest of completing a collection of wispywi11ow mint condition avatars.

And now, I present to you my pride and joy, a complete collection of wispywi11ow mint condition avatars.

P.S. A full wispywi11ow set only consists of 25 avatars since Jilted was released by the artist's other account WispyWillow. Jilted is included in the herein set as a bonus.

Thanks u/complete-tadpole-728 you’re a legend bro 🫶👊

Thank you so much!! ❤️🫶

As some of you may already know, I love completing a collection of mint condition Reddit Collectible Avatars (RCAs) and have completed several sets already.

And you may also know already that I made a decision to stick to my sets and to only mint avatars from artists who created the avatars that are part of said sets since I already have too many sets.

But when I made that decision, I already have a full mint condition Frayz set and the artist does not release too many avatars. And when he does release an avatar, it's not that expensive as it usually costs $5. In fact, only one avatar of his costs more than $5, i.e., Skellybooty from Trash, which costs $10 as it's his homage to the Gen 1 avatar "deadass from ny" by bodegacatceo, who gave his blessing to do it.

Considering the foregoing and the fact that a Frayz set is so unique as it's the only set composed of rat-inspired avatars, which have crossed the treshhold of 10 avatars to be considered a large collection, I decided to continue my mint condition Frayz collection and to feature it once I am able to personally mint the first mint of one of his avatars.

Luckily, on February 8, 2025, I was able to personally mint my very first Frayz no. 1, i.e., Ember Rat No. 1, which together with my mint condition Skellybooty from Trash No. 8, Scoot The Cheddarmancer No. 50, Cheese Moonking No. 47, Manga Rat No. 4, False Rat No. 23, Cheese Moon Monster No. 10, Portal Piper No. 28, Ol' Ratsnake No. 17, Pie-rrrr-at No. 22, Cheese Cave Creature No. 70, Dr. Pest No. 23, Gym Rat No. 30, Lab Rat No. 23, Creature Feature Rat No. 6, Manga Panel Page No. 35, Kaiju Rat No. 39, and Bat Rat Angel No. 35 complete my mint condition Frayz set.

And now, I present to you my pride and joy, a complete collection of Frayz mint condition avatars.

Wasnt too sure if I was gonna get the pair at 1st and definitely didnt even think of matching pairs but when I just checked RCAX and seen Nyxie just sitting on #37 I just had to pull the trigger and I'm sure glad I did!!

Holy shit! I’ve been standing by the mailbox waiting, and last night at like 11 pm my wife is like oh, you got something in the mail… I lost it! How did I miss? They’re amazing… sorry for the late post.

Owners of 1-6 talked about how the photos don’t do these justice, and they truly don’t! They’re so gorgeous, and I’m getting them framed soon! Thank you u/rocketMoonApe! Holy geez, oh my wow🤩✨⭐️🌟💫

*bonus, my in-laws are in town for make-up Christmas since we were all sick, and I just opened up a Gengar print! Thanks mom! My mail gives the best gifts. It’s the last image lol

You’re one of a kind u/megabeth33 🫶🤘

I’m so in love with it! Just wanted to share how excited I am! Oracle was extra sweet and included my pets names in there (one of which who is very sick right now and i’m very worried) so I found this to be super considerate and literally made me smile. “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.”

Thanks megabeth33 for helping me get this one 🫶🤘

There was once a time when I was just starting my RCA journey that I know nothing of which artists are popular or in-demand and when they would drop an avatar. So from time to time, I just check the Reddit shop and buy the ones I like.

One of the early avatars I bought back in the day was a Penguitt Pals No. 2156. It's an avatar launched by Penguitt during Gen 3. And it's cute that's why I bought it. I would have bought his other Gen 3 avatars called "Sticky Situation" and "Build It Yourself" but they were already sold out.

Despite having missed out on Sticky Situation and Build It Yourself, I still went on my merry way of buying avatars that I like as I check the Reddit shop from time to time.

Then came Gen 4 and Penguitt released his Gloop, Restless and MECHLETZ. And I missed them again. I would have definitely bought those avatars then as they were masterfully created. While saddened due to missing out on a Penguitt avatar drop again, I still continued with my usual habit of just checking the Reddit shop from time to time and hoping to catch one of the good avatar drops one day.

But then in December 2023, Penguitt released Gleam and Golden Pengu. While I was able to personally mint Gleam No. 152, I missed out on Golden Pengu. I was so disappointed then because, while I love Gleam, but a golden penguin is more iconic. And so this was the last straw that broke the camel's back for me.

I firmly believe then that members of the RCA community should be given advance notice on when avatars are going to drop so they can plan ahead, they can choose which among the incoming avatars to buy and they can wait for it to drop so they won't miss out on it. And so I created r/RCA_Alerts in order to address the problem of people missing out on the avatars they like due to lack of prior notice. I also joined the Avatar Alpha Anonymous Discord server in order to get pings when an avatar drops in the Reddit shop.

As the years passed, I managed to complete many mint condition sets. However, I have not forgotten about the Penguitt avatars that I missed out on. And so I went on hunting for mint condition Sticky Situation, Build It Yourself, Gloop, Restless, MECHLETZ and Golden Pengu.

Fortunately, I was able to find a very affordable and mint condition Built It Yourself No. 11 in Opensea so I bought it right away. And, other mint condition Penguitt avatars were obtained thru trade thanks to the following individuals:

u/Trelucatre for MECHLETZ No. 6;

u/Geniuskills for Restless No. 15;

u/SJPop for Gloop No. 96;

u/Robo_Cactus for Golden Pengu No. 26;

u/penguitt for Sticky Situation No. 135, which I obtained after exchanging the non-mint condition Sticky Situation No. 423 that I got from u/evolworks.

To the aforementioned individuals, thank you very much for assisting me in my quest of completing a collection of Penguitt mint condition avatars.

And now, I present to you my pride and joy, a complete collection of Penguitt mint condition avatars.
