Egg Baskets: The New Halloween Gifts?

In the days approaching up to ROBLOX Egg Hunt 2014, some new egg basket gears have been released. Though, these are not just regular egg baskets like in previous years where the basket would give you some sort of in game benefit. These baskets are more like the Halloween gifts released every October; they're gifts in the sense that each one will give you an unknown item, but like Halloween gifts you must BUY every one. Now while I'm not too pleased that now there are three types of gifts, these new gifts/baskets are all like previous gifts and can be predicted as to what's in each one. Without further ado, here are the predictions for the previous four baskets. (note that theories have arisen that the baskets might not be like gifts and that they could just be powerup items for the egg hunt, for now we'll assume they are gifts until something happens with one of them)

Cool Egg Basket of Spring

This basket is basically the traditional egg basket with Easter-esque colors and a spring flower on the side. With an original price of 50 robux, I can only imagine that the only thing to come out of this is some cheap item relating to spring.

Pastel Basket of Danger

This 100 robux basket is sort of a mystery because it does not give any real inclination into what it means when it says the word "danger" in the title. Could it possibly be a dangerous overpowered sword? It's hard to tell. The words "pastel" and "danger" don't exactly go together well, which adds to the confusion of what could come from this. This mysterious basket is clearly the oddball out of all the baskets.

For this 250 robux basket, it can be assumed that whatever will come from it is some shade of purple and has to do with space. Besides that though, nothing much else can be assumed. Could it be a Sci-Fi themed item such as the Gravitron 3000 released 3 years ago? The answer: most likely yes.

Hazardous Basket of Major Oversight
Hazardous Basket of Major Oversight
At 500 robux, this basket is probably the most obvious out of all the baskets released so far. With a clear and distinct overseer theme to it, it's a no-brainer that the item will be themed around the overseer line of items. In addition, the basket's description mentions of an Overseer Major. This could likely mean that the item coming from this is going to be called something along the lines of "Overseer Major" or "Major Oversight". If you are inclined towards Overseer-items, definitely buy this before it goes offsale

So far I wouldn't say any of the baskets are extra-special, but the one that looks like the best deal so far is the overseer basket. In the continuing days there will be posts on future baskets and predictions as to what's in them. Looking back on Halloween gift trends, it can be expected for some baskets soon to start costing from 1000-5000 robux. It could even be possible that there might be a "mega basket" costing 20000 robux or more (20000 would make sense though since April 20th is Easter; however big gift prices have gone up a lot lately).

  1. Hmm, I agree with most of this, however I don't think any of them will really be worth it, unless you MUST collect all of them to satisfy your spring needs they don't really present anything special. Gear is especially useless since you can't use it in many games. As for hats, they usually are ridiculous and the classic hats are far better.
