Alright, looks like the RWBY panel will be starting soon!
If you’re able to watch, get to http://roosterteeth.com/live/rt-tv  NOW!
This thread will have a summary of points and reveals I thought were important so at least you’ll have the gist even if you couldn’t make it live.
Here we go!
Did- did someone just meow?
Merch announcement first. V7 blu-ray out Sept 22!

Apparel line got a mention- I saw some people talk about this. Apparently the denim top that recycles RWBYAA art is meant to be an RWBYAA merch top (meaning they claim it’s intentional)
Yoooooooo Yang jacket! Like an IRL version of Yang’s jacket from v7
Babs Tarr collab items go on sale Oct 30!
Aw, Arryn’s pupper!
Ah, Grimm campaign.!* gotta watch that.
V8 is 1/3 done animation!

Pre-production on V8 is almost done, they’ll continue to V9 soon
V8 and V9 are being treated as sort of being two halves of one season, as per Kerry.

Interesting.
V9 writing is almost done- a few weeks away, according to Kerry and Eddy.
What th— the feed just cut. Teaser trailer.....??
Yep, teaser clip! Also RWBY V8 starts airimg November 7! (Not a hard date necessarily but it is what they are shooting for)

Also apparently Blake’s hair will have more noticeable floof? Hmmm????

V8 officially has 14 eps.
“Partner stuff?”
Ohh, books and stuff. Fairy Tales of Remnant gets a mention first.

Manga update as well. JNPR is getting an anthology volume July 2021

RWBY manga art merch on Anthology (?) with discount code “Huntress”

Good Smile Ruby figurine pre-orders live
Weiss figurine! Pre-order is live!
RWBY Nendroids! OMG the Ruby one (pre-orders available) is so cute!
“Uhhhhh....GEEKY TIKIS!”

Smooth, Arryn. (all meant in fun)

RWBY Geeky Tikis are basically tiki-style RWBY character cups.
RWBY is even getting its on coffee line from Kings Coast Coffee Co. Whaaaat.
Kerry: “If you look under your chair, there’s a bag right now!”

Arryn, mock suspicious: “How did you get in my house??”
RWBY Combat Ready is getting a JNPR expansion pack!

(.......NGL, I totally forgot that game existed. My bad!)
RWBY is getting a new game!!WayForward and Arc System Works are involved! WHAAAAT? wonder what kind of game it’ll be.

- Original story

- Takes place concurrently with V7 (hey, remember that timespan they breezed through with a montage??)

- 2021 tentative release date
Question time!

- First question is a good one! What are the characters’ birthdays!

Neptune: May 1

Jaune: Feb 29? April 1? (Or is Sun’s April 1?)
I wasn’t looking at my screen- was it Arryn who thought Wattpad was WAP-pad?? 🤣
Weiss: May 15(Taurus)

Blake: Jan 19 (Capricorn?)

Yang: July 28 (Leo)

As per Eddy- mainly based on astrological signs/their characterization
Miles and Kerry seem to be surprised people care abt character birthdays.
Second question is basically asking whether we’ll see more defined muscle tone for the girls (👍)

Apparently it was harder to do early on, but by now they’re more willing to entertain the idea- however they want to do it in a way that doesn’t change the models too drastically.
Barb wants Yang to have a “16-pack”

Edddy says Yang should have more defined abs than Sun

Someone said Weiss’ sword arm should be jacked (lol)

Lindsay said Ruby’s legs could be more toned since she runs/is speedy.
Third question: “What would you do if you met your character IRL?”

- Lindsay: “I already have two kids, I need (Ruby) to calm down.” Other people mentioned Ruby and Lindsay could bake.

- Kara: “I’d have Weiss take me shopping.”

- Arryn: “Blake and I would be kind of awkward.”
