How to Get the New Pets: Gingerbread, Boxes, and Robux
Understanding the acquisition methods is key to planning your collection strategy.
The Angus Box: This is the annual Christmas pet box for 2024. It is purchased from the event area or main shop using Gingerbread, the event-specific currency earned by completing festive tasks and minigames. The box contains one of three pets: Angus Cow (Rare), Angus Calf (Ultra-Rare), or Angus Bull (Legendary). It is considered a safe investment because the lowest outcome is still a Rare pet.
Gingerbread Pets: Both the Cozy Mistle Troll and the Angus Box are bought with Gingerbread. Focus on daily event tasks to accumulate this currency efficiently.
Robux Pet: The Frost Phoenix is available for a limited time for 500 Robux in the game’s shop. This is a direct purchase and does not involve chance.
Rarities and Value Breakdown
Legendary (Highest Rarity): Frost Phoenix (Robux) and Angus Bull (from Angus Box).
Ultra-Rare: Cozy Mistle Troll (direct buy) and Angus Calf (from Angus Box).
Rare: Angus Cow (from Angus Box).
Expected Demand & Value: The Frost Phoenix and Angus Bull will likely hold the highest long-term trade value due to their legendary status and acquisition methods (Robux and chance-based). The Angus Calf and Cozy Mistle Troll will be solid ultra-rare adds for traders. The Angus Cow, while common from the box, is perfect for new collectors.
Which Pet is the Most Worth It?
The “best” pet depends on your player profile:
Free-to-Play Players: Prioritize earning Gingerbread for the Angus Box. It’s a fantastic value with no risk of getting a common or uncommon pet. The Cozy Mistle Troll is also a great direct target.
Collectors: You’ll want all five! Start grinding for Gingerbread and consider the Frost Phoenix if you complete the Mistle Troll set or love Phoenix variants.
Traders: Stock up on Angus Boxes to unbox and trade later, especially if you pull a Legendary Angus Bull. The Frost Phoenix is a guaranteed high-value legendary for trading post-event.
