They aren't on the doll, but that's understandable because they'd be hard to make at that scale. And they aren't in the comic panel...idk, I was both amused and surprised XD
Part of me really wants to like this, because I love the designs (though I'm not a fan of Bloom's little pigtail things), and they even have some cool-looking weapons, but at the same time...just just doesn't seem very Winx-like.

On the Darkwinx does not make sence. As if you think about the episode I forget which one that went to cloud tower and the trix tried to get to its heart. They explained faries are light and witches dark. With the winx having to go back to Alfea to recover better as they were not really compatable with the dark.

I kind of thought that Dark Winx is what happened to Bloom in the second season. Turning a fairy dark doesn't give them a nifty new transformation, it makes them evil.

Chill. They're quite obviously not on the finished product.
Hopefully, I must say I do like Flora's outfit/attitude... it's so non-Flora-ish
The description said that "dark winx"/Hallowinx is their new power to enter in the witches' world. Or something like that. I quite like the idea, just as long as it doesn't last longer than the specials.

Er.... wasn't it pretty obvious these were DISGUISES for a WITCH PARTY? Where's all this talk of Evil Fairies coming from?
In the first information post it said something about them getting a new transformation called "Dark Winx", didn't it? Or am I totally hallucinating?

Dark? ...Well, they're trying, at least. Edgy? 99% sure they aren't there yet, wkw.

Yup! The transformation is "given" (eh, we'll have to find out how they receive it) to the Winx to enter a party hosted by the Trix. Atleast that's what the text for the dolls line said. In the comics the dark winx transformation is used to battle Halloween-style monsters.
I wouldn't consider it a real transformation like Enchantix ^^

Hmm...I guess it just feels like a lack of continuity to me, since Dark Bloom is evil but now Dark Winx is just a new outfit to get into a party. Then again, it's not the biggest continuity problem Winx has ever had.
The outfits have grown on me, even if they still don't feel exactly Winx-like, and I still don't like Bloom's pigtail things. I guess now that the initial "U: wat?" factor is dying down, I'm getting used to it.

Yeah...I'm pretty sure it's the Dark Bloom thing that's still bugging me. But for all I know, that wasn't even what it was called in the RAI version and it was a 4kids thing *shrug*

I think the Dark Bloom thing should be called "An-evil-skeleton-knight-is-controlling-my-body-and-mind-for-his-own-evil-purposesix"
This looks more like emo-style, which isn't evil, it is just dark and gloomy.

^Best transformation name
I was actually thinking that they all look sort of punk lolita. Which, again, is a fashion I love, it's just pretty different than what I'm used to seeing on the girls.
