Journey of Stardust NFT Comic

Price: TBA
No. of Tokens: 100 pages

Away from the usual profile picture avatar NFTs, Journey of Stardust is bringing something fresh to the scenes. Authored by Georgianna-Rada Sleam, this 100-page NFT comic tells the story of a young wizard character called Stardust.

Stardust is on an adventure to explore his homeworld but he soon discovers that there is an ongoing conflict between humans and wizards. Even more worrisome is the fact that someone was threatening the existence of both humans and wizards. Will Stardust prevail in his quest to restore peace and bring the culprit to book?

It is worth mentioning that this series taps on the success of another NFT collection. The collection’s names and colors used were obtained from BitColors, a collection of 1,000 NFT colors.

According to the artists, the first 10 pages of the comics will be released for free in order to create some buzz around the project.

The Message "Poop" NFT

Price: Auction
No. of Tokens: 1

In March, a New York man cashed out from the NFT craze when he sold his fart for $85. To be honest, the industry has had its fair share of seemingly weird sales. However, this NFT is taking the context to a whole new level.

The Message is an NFT of “poop.” Yes, you heard that right. While this may not be able to stand side by side with popular collections like CryptoPunks or Bored Apes, you’d have to agree that it is unique. The creator of this NFT argues that the current landscape is filled with “dull collections of avatars, created by marketers posing as artists […] These NFTs have so little art value, and the marketers have to artificially predetermine rarity of items to create fake scarcity.”

The NFT is a photo of a poop taken in the public toilet of a bus station in Rybinsk in 2004. According to the creator, the photo was taken with a Nokia 3660 and has a resolution of 640 by 480 pixels. He goes on to confidently state that the “photo contains more art and value than all artificially generated NFT avatar collections combined.”

The Message is up for auction on the OpenSea NFT marketplace, and interestingly, someone is already offering 0.1 ETH ($443) for the poop photo. The auction runs from Nov. 29, 2021 to Jan. 1, 2022.

Pixel Racers NFTs

Price: 0.1 SOL
No. of Tokens: 10,000

Who doesn’t love race cars? If you’d like to hop on a pixelated race car and battle other players for a prize then Pixel Racers may be just for you.

“The Pixel Racers game is a simple drag racing game that requires the player to press the spacebar at checkpoints along the racing strip. The player must land the moving needle in the perfect zone of the game bar for best performance while landing in the close, so-so, and denied zones produce less desirable results. Cross the finish line first to claim your prize and honor.”

Pixel Racers is a PvP racing game where racers battle for the top spot. The game rollout has been divided into five phases. After minting, a game demo will be released. This will be followed by Pixel Engine NFT minting and then an official game release.

Players will have to mint an NFT car and an engine before they can access the game.

Ape Kids Club NFTs

Price: 0.05 ETH
No. of Tokens: 9,999

Finally, there is an NFT series that appears to be tilted towards kids. Ape Kids Club is a collection of 9,999 baby apes that “were sprouted from our thousand-year-old magical tree. Victorior, the beloved and talented art teacher, will take care of all Kid Apes in our Club with many planned activities and surprises.”

This NFT collection has a striking resemblance with an American computer-animated children's television series from 2019, Tiny Ones Transport Service (T.O.T.S). T.O.T.S. is about the hilarious adventures of a penguin and a flamingo who deliver newborn baby animals and birds to their parents.

From some context, here’s the lore of the Ape Kids Club:

“In a magical world where apes ruled the metaverse, a magical thousand-year-old tree sprouted cute baby apes. A flock of storks were the loyal companions of the thousand-year-old tree. One sunny day, a total of 9999 baby apes were born. Storks followed their inner call and delivered all the baby apes.”

The artist behind this NFT series has worked for EmberLab studio for Coca-Cola (USA), KFC, Bridge of Spirits (Sony Playstation game), PSYOP for Disney's game, Clash and Clans, Clash of Royales and several other related projects.

Owning one of the Kid Ape grants access to a Discord community where members can take part in “Back to School” activities, a kids merchandise store (Lemonade Stand), charity donations, the dance party, and other planned surprises.

No. of Tokens: 10,028

10,028 hand-drawn gorilla NFTs will become a key element in a “Gangster Gorilla Play 2 Earn first-person mobile shooter game that will run on the Jungle token.”

Pixlr Genesis NFTs

Price: 0.3 ETH
No. of Tokens: 10,000

It is no longer new that several big players like Ubisoft and Google are stepping into the blockchain scenes. The sector has continued to attract corporate behemoths and Pixlr is one of the latest to join the party.

Pixlr, one of the world’s most popular design and photo editing platforms, has stepped into the NFT scene and is looking to build the world’s art-based metaverse, a 100% decentralized art museum to rival the likes of the Louvre, MOMA, and National Gallery. It hopes to achieve this dream through Pixlr Genesis.

Pixlr Genesis is a collection of 10,000 exclusive NFT artwork. Each piece of token will serve as a museum pass that will allow one artwork to be displayed within the metaverse. It also doubles as a “seed” for anyone to freely build on for derivative work.

“2000 NFT art pieces will be sold in each phase over five phases to ensure the galleries are refreshed with new curations. Your art piece also represents your choice on what to display within the museum, how to invest secondary royalty funds, participate in fractional bids, and where to focus the community's attention.”

The Last Raptor NFTs

Price: 0.09 ETH
No. of Tokens: 1,923

While most NFT projects today focus on play-to-earn gaming and the bragging rights that come with owning a piece of an alluring profile picture, The Last Raptor is actually packed with a lot of utility. For one, there are plans to build a “cutting edge NFT portfolio optimizer that will give special privileges to The Last Raptor holders.”

The tool, which is intended to help NFT traders maximize their profits, will remain free to all raptor holders. According to the team, the tool will help collectors to evaluate their NFT portfolios, spot undervalued collections, estimate the market’s greed and fear, as well as generate P&L reports based on trades.

Further down the line, there are plans to launch a community online store, a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), and a secret collection.

9tales NFTs

Price: 0.049 ETH
No. of Tokens: 9,999

9tales is an NFT play-to-earn project. 9999 uniquely generated hand-drawn characters have been created to kickstart the project.

“The goal of the 9Tales project is to develop a blockchain-based play-to-earn card game, with the same name. This game will tell the story of a fantasy world we have imagined. A world shared by 9 characters, 9 races, and 9 realms. A story of adventures, mystery and thrill, told in 9 tales.”

NFT holders will enjoy free card pack drops, early access to the project’s NIT gaming token at a discounted price, and higher chances of receiving rare card drops.

Cold Blooded Creepz NFTs

Price: 0.03 ETH
No. of Tokens: 6,666

You’ve probably heard rumors on how the world is being run by the Illuminati or any other group of elite individuals. However, in the case of the Cold Blooded Creepz, the world is being run by a bunch of lizards, including one that looks like former US President Donald Trump.

Although there are a lot of items on this project’s roadmap, its $1 million DAO stands out. The funds will be used to buy land on the metaverse for token holders and for creating a launchpad for other artists.

Alpha Gorillas NFTs

Price: 1.5 SOL
No. of Tokens: 5,000

Alpha Gorillas touts itself as the “first deflationary NFT.” It consists of 5000 unique 3D gorillas drawn from more than 100 different traits.

As expected, a significant aspect of this project is dedicated to supporting endangered gorillas. Moreover, one lucky owner will win a trip to the Safari.

Speaking about its deflationary property, the team writes:

“A new type of breeding and fusion system is steadily decreasing the total number of Alphas, while the existing ones are becoming rarer and rarer. How much the total number of alphas decreases is completely in the hands of the holders. Thus, it is a system that cannot be manipulated from the outside, which makes NFTs deflationary for the first time.”

BoredMafia Club

Price: 0.079 ETH
No. of Tokens: 5,000

This mafia-themed NFT collection features 5,000 male characters equally spread across 5 gangs. Owners will be able to participate in an NFT game and enjoy exclusive merch.

“Each Gang will have 1 Boss, 50 Underboss, 300 Lieutenant, and 649 Soldiers. The boss will obviously have rare traits, but the soldiers are the ones that are required for the dirty work.”

In 2022, the project will debut its SheMafia NFT and existing owners will automatically be whitelisted for the presale. Meanwhile, the Mafia Game Beta launch is expected to happen in Q3 2022.
