I am digging the dinosaurs. The aesthetics are great, the wearables inspired, and it feels like the dino Subetapets are more legitimized as an element in the world.
This is a lot of cool stuff, and honestly, I would love a full on plot or region or something like that sometime down the line.

I'm not really into dinosaurs so I've been feeling left out, but I like that other prehistoric creatures were included. I like the feathered challenger.
I was going to make a feedback thread asking if you could commit to monthly themes more often like you did with this one so other users with other interests have a chance to feel more involved, but I guess I can say it here instead. It doesn't have to be anything huge or that takes a lot of work like a plot or new challengers, just more themed items or re-releases of themed items or pet colours.
The reason we were able to get so many things done this month is that there were no holidays to work on (or rush to finish) or anything else outstanding. We were able to pay attention to specific parts of the site without juggling "how can we make this theme work but also survival" type thing. We've had a few other themes in the past that just had luck of the draw of being that sweet spot of artists having the downtime to get lots of things. If we make the monthly themes tied too closely to a holiday, then it's just an extension of a holiday and not like a fun little thing that gets at least quest shop items + collection.
Well, the feathered challenger is actually closer to how we currently believe most dinosaurs looked! Many are showing evidence of bone grooves that correlate to primary feather structures in modern birds, and we have a lot of imprints of feathers in fossils.
I really do like dinosaurs, so I'm a little biased, but what if other prehistoric creatures were involved, like giant sloths or saber toothed animals? Maybe ancient sea creatures and giant dragonflies? I think it could work.
But if this holiday-free downtime is important to staff, I get that, too. In fact, if its fun for the artists, then maybe Dealer's choice itself is worth prioritizing. Any theme with the excitement shown for dinosaurs here would surely be great.

Despite my very early childhood fixation on them, I feel the same.

Now that I think about it, that one month with all the Angel stuff (with new Angelic pets and revamps) was also an August. Maybe August is just a good month for themes.
Every dino that has been bestown upon us is lovely and amazing! Espeeeecially Ol' Many-Horns:

I love me some rhino dinos!
I barely know anything about dinosaurs, but I can appreciate all the new items and challengers all the same. Like, some of the individual pieces of the SBQ line are pretty cool.
I only returned to subeta recently so I'm a little sad I've missed a bunch of dino month already haha but I'm loving what I see!! Huge dinosaur enthusiast :> Some sort of prehistoric themed plot would be super cool!
I'm a dinosaur aficionado, and as the kids say, I am HERE. FOR. IT.

Dinos are cool, I'm not super into them or anything...but I'm enjoying the cool stuff staff's coming up with!
For the people feeling left out, maybe a thread can be started for suggestions for other themes people would like to see in the future?
I definitely had a blast with Dinosaur Month! 😄 All the new items and challengers are amazing! 🦖🦕
This was one of my favorite monthly themes ever, not only because dinosaurs are heckin' rad but because the staff obviously got super inspired by it and showered us with so many awesome things to go with the theme. It almost felt like a mini event during a time of year we don't really have much going on here (there was Neugarten I guess, but that paled in comparison to the dino extravaganza). I'm a little sad to see the month coming to an end (but not too sad because summer can bite me).
I'm glad they used this as a chance to make Bhakorus available to everyone (even if they had to delay it). I'm not desperate for one myself, but I'm sure people will be glad to not have to use an Essence Of Melody or ask another user to make one for them anymore.
Ditto! I just hope their aren't any glitches when the feature is finally released.
...with that said, I thought the Essence route was pretty easy to do? Provided the instructions aren't that expensive.

I mean, sure, it's easy but also kind of tedious and really shouldn't have to be done by this point. (Also you have to know it's a thing you can do, either by figuring it out yourself or asking, and not everyone has the time/resources/social energy) The plot where the bhakorus were first introduced was years ago, I just don't see the need to keep them exclusive anymore. So I'm glad to see that soon everyone will have the option to make one themselves, and yeah, it's a great way to wrap up the dino theme :D
Prehistoric ancient forms of Subeta pets WHEN. would make an awesome new redraw colour.
