Atlantis we all know you love scythes but you gotta agree if they re-released turkeys which were set amount at the time they can well release scythes and wreaths again, only reason they didnt at the time was the price tag and probably merchers hoarding them.
Seems like they target re-release items based on concentration of said items, so the more you ppl hoard the more likely they gonna re-release them

Turkeys were a fun/troll item, which most ppl didn't care about. The big reward/item was always Scythe and Wreath, these were the jackpot items.

At the re-release of turkeys, scythe & wreath were pretty cheap, at like 100-400m? So the "price tag" doesn't make sense.

Jagex never called Scythe & Wreath "Limited items" or "Seasonal items". They said RARE, as in discontinued.

Jagex has said that they do NOT plan to re-release Scythe, Wreath, so why are people still making threads about it... like let it go lol

It has nothing to do with the market, manipulation OR price of the items. Le Me was just unlucky.

Rares have always been hoarded, yet none of the official rares have been re-released.

It's been almost 8 years since Scythe & Wreath were released, it's safe to say that they are not coming back.

Every year we see this thread pop up, even tho Krista and others have said that they have discussed it, and they are not brining holly wreath / scythe back.

Case closed

I have 0 vested interest in these items, so understand that I am not trolling or working with any intent to manip. There is just some truth that appears twisted in the above. I will take it for granted that what was said about Wreath not being planned on rerelease also covers the scythe, but I do not recall ever seeing this and it has not been cited in this thread.

The BSH was called a rare, and the way it was worded implied that it would not be rereleased. The Christmas Scythe was not called a rare during the time period that the 2014 promo was active and the scythe was obtainable in game. Strictly speaking, the Holly Wreath was also not called a rare. All that was said about the Holly Wreath is that there will never be more than 1,000 in game (or obtainable in game)... this implied (via logical deduction, not explicitly stated) that they could release again but only up to a maximum of 1,000 in game... which makes the item effectively permanently discontinued by its nature . By logical deduction, Holly Wreath is a rare not by declaration but by its nature.

If they do not plan to rerelease, then it is unlikely that any of the three items mentioned above will be rereleased unless or until plans change. The fact that an item is not currently planned on being rereleased does not guarantee that it will not be in a future year. Business plans are always subject to change in order to meet changing business needs, as businesses that do not adapt do not last.

Ethically, the BSH should never be rereleased, and rereleasing the Holly Wreath ethically would be near moot because of the 1k item cap. Only the Christmas Scythe has risk of rerelease, however low that risk is.

Fearless AFK please read the 3rd post on this thread....

Scythe AND wreath were called rares. Turkeys were in this category, but I don't think anyone considered them as a "rare" - I think people saw them as Fish Masks, and other troll items, and maybe that's why Jagex re-released them.

Jmods have also mention multiple times on Twitch and other places that they do not have any plans to re-release any rares.

Wreath and Scythe were the "big items" as I mentioned before, only 1k and 5k were planned to release, and that's what Jagex did.

And by your logic, any rare can be re-released omg panic!!

Imagine if someone made a thread like this about Partyhats every year, because a business changes all the time and they could get re-released any-time! - You see how stupid it looks and sounds?

They can if they had reasons to, just think it as a business perspective.
For now its highly unlikely they'd release any of the current marketed discontinued rares, but if they somehow became hoarded by a small group of people they probably would which is obviously highly unlikely. Unless the prices get out of hand and ppl start crying about it, there's no reason for concern

With that said, i believe any th item will probably be released in the future, unless stated otherwise.

Also there was 5k scythes and 12.5k turkeys (mh and oh, 25k total), released. So if you think a bit over double turkeys than scythes makes them junk then idk.
And yes i count them as set, wearing just either would be kinda dumb.

Basically just ignore his posts since he's spewing random stuff out with 0 proof, and with his replies he obviously is clueless on what is actually happening and why things get rereleased.


point in case just this small sentence tells how clueless he is

yeah not like him and 4-6 others controlled over 50%+ of the mht/oht market, no way that was the reason why they got rereleased. hurrr they were unlucky derrr








Now you're showing your 0/10 reading skills in the post below.
1. Mod Krista's post was talking specifically about that year and that year only.
2. Mod Krista in that posts if you can read says she can't promise what will or won't come back in future years.

So yeah just ignore all of Atlantis's posts on this thread. Don't trust any pc's listed, any advice or talks between posts on ID forums anymore , the Manips are let loose, especially the main one with 15+ accounts posting acting as different people.. do your own research

@200M Defence

It's literally on the first page of this thread, what Krista said, and then it was mentioned multiple times on Twitch that they do not plan on re-releasing ANY rares.

Give it up now and let this thread die already

@200m Defence you're pushing 30, please act ur age.

Rares have always been hoarded, there's someone with 2k+ pumpkins atm, that's probably more than 80% of active in-game. Will we expect a re-release of these classic rares now? No.

Why didn't Jagex step up when 3a items were being hoarded back in the days? when a single person hoarded 90%+ of the market? It's not discontinued items, but they messed with the market.

Le Me invested in a troll item and it was a unlucky move. Jagex did not stalk Le Me and decide on purpose to mess with him, trust me, they have other more important things to do. It doesn't matter if Le Me was the only person who hoarded Turkeys, or if 50 merchers hoarded them, and at that time Turkeys were still pretty cheap, like 13-38m if I remember correctly.


This whole thread is based on speculations, and none proof of re-release of these iconic rares. So what is your point, lmao
