Unconventional Toys - Recolorable and Interactive!

So now, many months later, I've decided to invest the time to do it right and add a fun "pet rock" version, "Sir Rocks-a-Lot." The meshes, of course, are EA's, one being a direct conversion of Sir Bricks-a-Lot, and the other adapted from a rock mesh from BV. The textures, however, have been recreated from scratch, since I wanted to keep the opacity of the face overlays, and there was no way of isolating them from the surrounding texture without sacrificing quality.
Each toy is interactive (can be played with and placed in the toy box), completely recolorable (with one channel), and comes in four different varieties, as shown below (all presets are represented).
"Sir Bricks-a-Lot" and "Sir Rocks-a-Lot" can be found in the catalog under function sort: kids/toys and room sort: kids' room/toys at a price of ยง5 each.
Thanks for downloading!

Polygon Counts:
(Same as originals.)
Brick: Polys - 54, Verts - 62
Rock: Polys - 186, Verts - 114
Additional Credits:
TSR Workshop, s3pe, Wings 3D, Milkshape 3D, Adobe PSE, and EA for the original meshes. (Textures based upon EA's.)
This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.

Install Instructions
1. Click the download button, or the filename, to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.
For Package files:
1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Fileswiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
For Sims3Pack files:
1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
