Talking Santa

This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion.
Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?

Talking Santa was the seventh app in the Talking Friends series. It features Santa Claus where you can talk to him, run him over with a large snowball, give him milk and cookies, and send postcards.

To do:
There is a lot to discuss and add.

  • Remaining postcards.
  • Other changed/removed features if any.

Revisional Differences#

The Christmas postcards have changed over time. In 18 November 2011, Roby was replaced by Ben and Gina, Lila and John were added to the picture. In 6 December 2013, Baby Hippo and Harry were replaced by Angela, Ginger, and Pierre, and John was removed.

First Postcard#

The first version of the postcard featured Tom, Santa, Roby, Harry, Hippo and Larry. The second version removed Roby and added Ben, Lila, Gina And John, with Larry, Santa, and Hippo supporting different poses. Tom's model also got revamped as well, resembling his Talking Tom 2 design more than the old TurboSquid model. The third version removed Hippo, John, and added Pierre, Ginger and Angela, and added a more cute-like frame. Tom's smile is more bigger, and the lighting is much brighter. The fourth version just added a skirt to Angela.
