Hero Form Appearance: A combination of a cowboy’s gear and YuYuYu’s Hero Form outfits. The undersuit is a solid cream color to ensure the Rich burgundy red color can stand out. The main outfit is indeed a vibrant wine red, but on the inside, it’s a gorgeous pink to help add to the overall feel. Accent colors include light pink, white, gray, black, violet, red, gold, and silver. The boots, gloves, bandana, and hat all have patterns of the Winecup flower- and the only other accessory is a Winecup flower on Showdown Bandit’s left breast. The flower’s petal shape can be seen in the collar, sleeves, and tailcoat.

The Wine Cup of Emperor Jahangir

Northern India; Mughal, 1607–8 (dated AH 1016)

Jade, H. 5.5cm; W. 7.4cm.

This wine cup is the earliest dated jade artefact that can be linked without doubt to any Mughal emperor. It has three bands of calligraphy – the central band, carved in monumental sols script, has a royal dedication announcing that the cup was made for Jahangir; the upper border, in nasta’liq script, confirms that it was the personal cup of the emperor and was made in the second year of his reign, therefore between April 1607 and March 1608.

Persian verses ornament the cup, including some contemporary 17th-century poetry, and it is suggested that the poet responsible was the maker of the cup itself. The superintendent of the royal goldsmiths at the time was also rewarded by Jahangir for his skills as a poet.

It was around this time of year when you first found your way into my life, i am forever greatful our paths intertwined, wishing you the best forever and always

Love, Ace and I
