Are you ready for your weekly dose of awesomesauce from Megan and the team from Lockwood? Of course you are. Here’s what they have on tap this week to tide us all over until the New Year.
Those of you who have been in Home for a few years now know, this will be the last weekly update for 2011. It’s been a pretty wild ride, and let’s be honest here; what could have been a tragedy for Sony and the PlayStation community this spring has turned into quite a triumph – at least for us Home users – in terms of development and release of features we’ve long wanted to see.
This week from Lockwood:
- Book a tour aboard the Dream Yacht
- Decadent new designer wear from Figment
- Free mince pies and New Year cake in the Gift Machine
- The ShowOff: New Year Party is on!
Dream Yacht
Forget snow and ice, mittens and scarves, and being able to see your own breath. Board Figment’s Dream Yacht and get away from all that. Spend your holidays basking in the sun on the deck of your private yacht, or sooth your cares away in one of the two on-board hot tubs. It’s the perfect place to entertain, with several lounge areas and exquisite views of your own private tropical hideaway.
The yacht comes with some beautiful furnishings already in place, but if you spend some time exploring its expansive three floors you may find more things to add that special finishing touch.
Do the opulent surroundings justice and dress to impress – gain access to Lockwood’s Exclusive Store only available on the Dream Yacht, for elegant fashions that will assure you’re styled head and shoulders above the rest!
Start living the dream with Figment.
When I had heard of the Dream Yacht’s development quite a few weeks back, I thought to myself, “We already have two yachts personal spaces in Home; why add a third?” So in search of some answers, I emailed Megan about it, and this is what she replied with:
“One of our most popular collections is Figment, which launched in February 2011. Decadence and luxury lifestyle are key to this set and we wanted to create an experience that really reflected that by making more than just a clothing collection. With the increase in furniture limits for personal spaces it’s the perfect time to release a yacht on a grand scale. Thirty furniture items are included as rewards, giving yacht owners and their friends an opportunity to explore and decorate a large and beautiful setting, that offers more options than previous yachts. We are really pleased with how the latest Figment clothing and the Dream Yacht complement each other, and we hope the overall experience is all the more enjoyable as a result.”
Lots of people – particularly on the team here at HSM – like the Figment line. A lot. In fact it wasn’t too long ago that we were wondering just when we were going to see Lockwood update this line, as there is a demand for fashionable, classy evening wear in Home that would likely be considered haute couture in the real world. It’s fair to say wish granted in this case. And how better to crown your best fashion line than to compliment it with your own yacht?
Book a Tour!
Lockwood have teamed up with some leading PlayStation®Home community sites to give you a chance to preview The Dream Yacht, this is your chance to get some of the hidden furniture items and browse the exclusive store point only available on the Dream Yacht.

I bought the yacht and love it! The fact that you get so many free items included as you collect the floating Lockwood symbols makes this the buy of the year! And you can gift your friends as well, that is even better!
