INTRO
Ever since the first Rare Week appearance in 2013, the community has always had different opinions about it. While some love it due to being able to buy beautiful or nostalgic items without spending real money or having to trade for other valuable items, some are very against it. Some of the rares were very expensive, making players spend a huge amount of real money on them, which lost their value after being added to the store. But what does the community think about this year's Rare Week? Let's find out today!

A BIT ABOUT RARE WEEKS
Rare Week, as the name suggests, is a special week during which items normally unavailable in the store become available for a limited time. The first one took place in November 2013. While it didn't look like the Rare Weeks we know today due to lack of any particularly valuable items, the theme that was introduced then (Rockin' Retro) disappeared from the store after a week. Today, the theme is named MSP Retro and lacks some of its original items.
Since then, Rare Week has become an annual event, sometimes happening more than once a year. Some Rare Weeks have been boring, while others have been full of controversy. For example, the introduction of Astra hair during the Spring Rares of 2018 angered a part of the community due to how much people paid for it before. Another notable one was Rares 2020, which featured Val Corset, MSP Beta clothes, and other items that the community found exclusive earlier, although personally, I didn't see as much controversy around it.

RARE WEEK 2026
This year's Rare week features eight pages of clothing for females and six for males, blending newer items with old ones. As usual, the items section doesn't seem to attract many people, however, the animations are good - simple and remind me of the old MSP style.

OPINIONS
To know opinions about this year's Rare Week, I have decided to ask a few MovieStars about their feelings about it. Here are questions and answers from MotherFeral, Astronomy boo, muralist, and peacherons.
1. What is your opinion about this Rare Week?
MotherFeral: My opinion's on it are that there were a lot of items that I liked but also a lot that didn't really catch my eye. Overall I think it's decent but I agree when people say they could've included some better items. I'm always happy to see the goldies back tho
Astronomy boo: I would rate it a 6/10 it's got more items than last rare week that's for sure and some good items!
muralist: I think this rare week was really weak and disappointing, but there are some decent items
peacherons: Most disappointing rare week I've ever experienced tbh
2. Is there any item you're the most disappointed in? What is the item you're happy about?
MotherFeral: Half of the items I like and the other half not so much but my favourite is the classic miss goldie and crazy 'bout you
Astronomy boo: I am disappointed in the last of shoes and accs tbh I wish there were more variety for the men! My fav item has been the bat wings for sure thought they're so good
muralist: In regards to the girls fashion I'm disappointed with the clown outfit, but I also dislike the fact that they put some of the same rares in both boys and girls fashion instead of all different items and letting people go to the other store for the other items. And I'm most happy with the crazy 'bout you dress and the platina horror hair because I think they are beautiful
peacherons: I don't like most of the hairs tbh. I love fem hair, princess toes and the tats though!
3. If you could add any rare to this Rare Week, would you do it? If yes, what would it be?
MotherFeral: I can't remember what it's called but it's that hair that's mid length wavy hair with the same texture as the miss goldie (if anyone knows the hair lmk in the comment or on msp)
Astronomy boo: DUCKIES. I NEED MSP TO BRING BACK DUCKIES. I need like 15 pages of duckies on my account because I just love them so much. Top 3 fav rares.
muralist: I wish they would add back the kiss top too because I think it's a beautiful piece and could be used for many different outfits and aesthetics
peacherons: I would 100% add the mom tat, yin yang and heart tat!! and vip hair

MY LOOKS AND OPINION
For me, this Rare Week is quite good. Although I can't speak about the value of the items since I haven't played this game regularly since 2019, I really love the aesthetics of these items. My favourites are the Beach Glow hair, Lacy Nightmares wings, So Kawaii dress, and Crazy 'Bout You corset. I agree with peacherons - they could have included more old tattoos, especially the heart leg tattoo. I also really love the Beating Heart animation - it brings a feeling of nostalgia I can't fully explain.

My looks don't vary much, but I really love combining this corset, wings, hair, and bottoms. I also bought a few Kawaii dresses, and I hope to match them nicely with other items to make more looks I will love.
That's it in this post! Hope you all enjoyed it, I love you all!
