    Well, I believe they've been 250k+ since Aug.3 , according to Jellyneo, so they've been inflated (if they were) for about a month now.

    For some reason I only just noticed they inflated. I can't see it being supply and demand since there would be no reason for people to randomly start painting all their pets Tyrannian...So im guessing some ladydog decided to buy 371593 of them and inflate them!

    I got one from KQ a few months ago, in june I think, but im not sure if they still give it out.

    I think a lot of people are starting to like corss painting their pets with tyrannian. And the tyrannian gelert is pretty popular for some reason. (To me it looks fugly)

    Ty paint brushes have been cheap for ages. Since they're usually hovering in the 100k-250k zone, they're actually only inflating a deflating by 100k or so at the most. It just seems like a lot because the PB is cheap. If you look at the faerie paint brush, it's gone down by at least 2 million within months and the plushie pb's gone up by millions.

    Still, there is a huge percentage increase by the Tyrannian paintbrush, even though i can't think of a reason why. Maybe TNT increased rarity of the Tyrannian paintbrush?
