-==History==
+==His==
-The Turtle Hat went through multiple iterations before reaching its current state as a turtle hat. This was to avoid copyright issues, as alluded by the item description.
-[[File:Nyancathat.jpg|thumb|left|100px|A player wearing the '''Nyan Hat''' and [[Angel Wings]]]]
-The first version of the item was the '''Nyan Hat''', released March 7th, 2013. The hat was based on the popular ''Nyan Cat'' Internet meme, a video featuring a flying cat with the body of a Pop-Tart and trailing a rainbow behind it. When worn by a player, the hat would make a rainbow trail behind the player, much like in the video.
-In May 2013, Christopher Torres, the copyright owner of Nyan Cat, sued Warner Bros. for the unauthorized usage of the character. In light of this, the item design was changed on a whim to avoid a lawsuit for copyright infringement.
-The second design was the '''Taco Dog''', resembling a dog in a taco. The hat trailed the flag pattern of Mexico when worn by players, replacing the rainbow of the previous version. The item was fan-suggested, and while it seemed like a good replacement, it was soon discovered that the Taco Dog was also a character owned by Torres.
-A poll was posted on the RTsoft Forums by Hamumu, asking the community what they wanted the hat to resemble[http://www.rtsoft.com/forums/showthread.php?14907-Taco-Dog-is-leaving-us-what-do-you-want-to-see-replace-him]. The possible choices were Yerfdog, Piggy Bank, Turtle, Kitty, and Puppy. The poll closed on May 13th, with Turtle winning with 45.12% of the votes, and the new design was rolled out on May 16.
