hehe - I sorta figured the Pirates would be all over this perceived value for Ninjas being less than Pirates.
Admittedly, I was a little curious as to the rationale behind its level, but I also considered the fact that it would be far too early to release the next diamond. As well, this set will get wider (and quicker) distribution amongst all of IB. Looking at it that way, ninjas will be all over the place.
The chefs truly keep us on our toes around here and for all we know, there might also be something tied to the actual release of Sushinobi. I absolutely LOVE the fact that the name includes the word “shinobi.”
Now, if only the set had a kunoichi... :-) (Oh, all right, those outfits aren't particularly form-fitting; I can decide that one of them is a kunoichi if I like... I claim the one in silver is a kunoichi.) (Wanders off humming the opening theme to "Ni Nin ga Shinobuden" (aka "Ninja Nonsense" in the US.))
Pirates now completely REIGN SUPREME! We value twice as much as a ninja icon. hahaha....
To be nice, those icons do look nice. And now I want them as much as I want the Pirates set.
My prediction was correct! I got it!
(My prediction was posted to my box last night but with time zones, it's dated today so it doesn't seem too impressive - but I know!)
tamashii on May 21, 2007
HO-LY…
fuseunderground on May 21, 2007
Mint! I was expecting a longer wait and a diamond delivery for a ninja set. Chefs again exceed my expectations :-D
tamashii on May 21, 2007
How is this not at Rhodium level?
I can't stop looking at this set. The name is genius!!!
Stratification on May 21, 2007
Very nice set ... come on token refill!
Hoshichan on May 21, 2007
I'm in love with this set. I can't wait to put a shuriken on my avatar! :D
wotan on May 21, 2007
They are beautiful :-)
aaroncampbell on May 21, 2007
I agree! The set is awesome! The only problem is...it's harder to wait for the set now that I see it!
eury on May 21, 2007
awww...not a diamond delivery? Nice nonetheless
lparziale on May 21, 2007
WOW - the Shinobi Clan will have an extreme avatar makeover I predict....
Nice set indeed!
fuseunderground on May 21, 2007
That set is making me hungry!
Must..Stop..Looking...
I can't help it, they're so beautiful ;-)
davethegr8 on May 21, 2007
awesome.
khursten on May 21, 2007
*waves* who wants it!? I want it! Swapping with some cute little dogs! GAAAAH! SUSHI!!
heinzelman on May 21, 2007
oh baby me likey
Jen on May 21, 2007
Wow and OMG I must have this set! Token refill is far far away for me though... how to earn three more tokens...
MrDee on May 21, 2007
The chefs have spoken. Pirates (diamond) is of greater value than Ninja (gold). no room for argument allowed ;)
Jen on May 21, 2007
Ahh but see, the ninjas get a discount! -stealth-
dyar on May 21, 2007
ah MrDee, have you considered the perceived value should the chefs decide to provide that as a Free delivery to members of the IB Shinobi Clan.
jmnovak on May 21, 2007
Very nice! I want! If only I had tokens... :-p (If only it were out... :-)
spiffinghat on May 21, 2007
Oh yes! I'm holding out on spending my tokens until this one hits.

AVP8472 on May 21, 2007
Great set, I really like it. Good work!!
nintendude73 on May 21, 2007
One word: WANT
MobiTec on May 21, 2007
OMG!!! I'm as Excited as this Kid
...realizes my refill is 2 WEEKS away!!!
Iconmaster How could you do this to me!! Argh!! It's not fair!! hahahaha.. :o)
miklb on May 21, 2007
Glad I saved a few tokens now!
MrDee on May 21, 2007
Value is less as there are fewer icons - there is just not as much to say that is of interest.
Why Ninja are boring
MaskedJedi on May 21, 2007
I would like to say that i am officially going ninj4.
MaskedJedi on May 21, 2007
Can anyone send me this set when they get it?
hiyasaki on May 21, 2007
yeah, could some nice person send this my way?
heinzelman on May 22, 2007
good lord I need to buy VIP twice a month to keep up with the icon coolness :)
Nokiko on May 22, 2007

NatetheGreat on May 22, 2007
*can't wait to add a ninja star to his avatar* \:D/
FunkyMunky on May 22, 2007
Wow... I'm speechless. Thank you Chefs!
I will only accept this delivery from tamashii. Unfortunately that will not be for another 16 days! :(
MaskedJedi on May 22, 2007
Does anyone else think that the chefs should gift this to all the ninjas?
daveamun on May 22, 2007
Ok, we got Pirates in a set, ninja's are coming soon, lots of puppies and kittens ...
Can't wait to see what they come up with for the members of TP Overhand and TP Underhand!
tamashii on May 22, 2007
imagine the ones for IB Anonymous…
khursten on May 22, 2007
Or maybe for the clan of the "stuff that doesn't count" lol. I'm looking forward to the TP Series. XDD
ivanbrezakbrkan on May 23, 2007
Any good souls out there to send me Sushinobi? :) Cheers!
wmostrey on May 23, 2007
Isn't any set dedicated to the IB Anonymous people? :)
moebius on May 23, 2007
Nice 0nes. I want it :P
Stoic on May 23, 2007
I'd like Sushinobi too if anyone has it? None of my friends do :o(
heinzelman on May 23, 2007
The suspense is KILLING me, Chefs, use your power for good, release the hounds!
iconmaster on May 23, 2007
Maybe we already did, and the ninjas are standing right behind you. ;)
JBVisions on May 23, 2007
iconmaster, I think you should make them all wait for a least a couple of weeks. They'll appreciate it sooooo much more. ;-)
dyar on May 23, 2007
Nooooooo, need it before the weekend so all Ninja's can have new Avatars by Memorial Day.
heinzelman on May 23, 2007
Chefs, if I threaten to hold my breath, will that make you release it?
kmfnj on May 24, 2007
must...have...free...delivery...
aaroncampbell on May 24, 2007
I've heard rumor of people seeing shinobi in the wild...
iconmaniac on May 24, 2007
Looks like it just got released, and I have five shiny tokens earmarked for it. If you have it, please send it.
KatieK on May 24, 2007
I've got enough stamps for one more Sushinobi delivery! Who's got the 5 tokens for it?
webdezign on May 24, 2007
I just recieved it and WOOOW!
By the way, I have 150+ stamps so drop by if you have the tokens to accept it.
heinzelman on May 24, 2007
ditto
FunkyMunky on May 24, 2007
I received the set as well so if any Shinobi Clan members are without it, let me know.
mik on May 24, 2007
My prediction was correct! I got it!
(My prediction was posted to my box last night but with time zones, it's dated today so it doesn't seem too impressive - but I know!)
unedible on May 28, 2007
