Trivia
When the Justin Timberlake items were released, there was a preview of a avatar standing with a gift box, in this box was (what appeared to be) a white duck. Gaians who were able to catch this announcement - quickly made post in the SF and GCD, some found it hilarious and unofficially dubbed the item Duck in a Box, while others found it tasteless and also criticized Gaia about their rules and hypocrisy.

The item was meant to parody the SNL skit D***k in a Box, the announcement containing the image was taken down a replaced with a new image excluding the parody.
