The StarShop is a place where the player can go to purchase Rare Monsters and exclusive decorations with Starpower. It was introduced in the 1.3.6 update.

Availability
Different rare monsters are available for purchase at different times. Check news to find out if any are currently available. The one exception is the Rare Wubbox which is available all the time.

Cost
Monsters can only be purchased for an island if they can exist on that island. For example, you can buy a Rare Noggin on Plant Island, but not on Cold Island. Monsters bought from the StarShop are eggs and must be incubated just like normal eggs before they can be placed on an island. The Nursery must be empty to purchase an egg.

There also used to be frequent "Rares Duet" offers where two Rares of opposite elements in the StarShop are on sale, which lasts a week. When such Rares are offered they become available for that duration (or discounted by half in pre-2.0.0.).

Unfortunately, since one day after the 2.0.0 update, released in September 2016, the Rares will only be in the StarShop when there are certain limited events, or only available on a rotational basis, making the Rares more "rare". However, due to the multitude of complaints by the My Singing Monsters fans, it had been announced that the Rares would become all-year-round available from 23rd September 2016 to the end of September, at the time also decreasing their cost by 75%. Also fortunately, in the same post they announce rotational basis of a Rares Duet every Wednesday (in Canadian Time) from October 5th 2016, to balance against the "Rare Monster crisis" which would otherwise mean no Rares after September 2016.

From November 2017, the Rares Duets discontinued. This is replaced with Rares Solos in 5th February 2018, starting with Rare Furcorn. Each Rare will be available for one week, every two weeks. It will be 50% discounted in the first 48 hours. On 19th February 2018, the Rare Entbrat was released to the StarShop for the week, but now the cost of purchasing Rare Naturals through the StarShop has doubled, making them cost exactly the same amount for the first 48 hours of the release.

Decorations
The following decorations are available from the StarShop. These are available all-year and all-day.

Rare Duet History
From October 2016 to November 15th 2017, Rares Duets appeared every week for a full week. It started every Wednesday, on precisely 19:00 UTC (except for the first week, which was every Tuesday). They provided two Rares of opposite elements and make them available in the StarShop for that week.

For more info, see Rares Duets.

Rare Solo History
Rare Solos supersede Rare Duets after almost three months of no StarShop deals at all. Instead of two Rares of opposite elements releasing weekly, one Rare is rereleased and last for 5 days starting from Sunday 20:00 UTC and ending at Friday 20:00 UTC biweekly. They later doubled the price of the Rares.
