I don't think players should have access to enemies looks, but maybe that's just me... and there are reasons why they shouldn't (PvP comes to mind).
So, no from me.

I'd prefer enemy costume pieces, so I can stick my character's unique look in there.
But this is good! 
Maybe they could like, disable them in PvP zones, or something.

What about VEATs then Wabbit?
I like the idea, don't know if they could do the "can't de-toggle" bit though.
Basically the idea is this.
For the sum of a low amount for each pack there is a series of packs which offers permenant versions of the halloween/Con exclusive style costume temp powers.
What I'd like to see (both these AND the con exclusive ones) are that these are toggles but cost 0 Endurance and also cannot be detoggled by any means (means you never lose the costume unless you wish to switch it off, powers can be made to ignore effects without causing the effect to be resisted completely, such as new blaster defiance meaning tiers 1 and 2 powers can ignore mez but the blaster is still mezzed).
Packs as follows:
Council/5th Column:
Zenith Mech-man.
5th Column Mek-man
Mark II wolfpack.
Mark II Zenith Warcry.
(The robots are actually subtly different and more than just a colour swap)
Warwolf (brown Warwolf)
Warwolf Eclipse (Black and white warwolf)
Vampyri.
Raserei Unteroffizier.
Vortex Adjutant.
Freakshow
Freak Chopper.
Juicer Chief.
Tank Swiper (keeping the Tank Smasher from the con exclusive).
Noise Tank.
Carnival:
Harlequin.
Bronze Strongman.
Iron Strongman.
Steel Strongman.
Illusionist.
Seneschal.
Dark Ring Mistress.
Master Illusionist.
Crey:
Male Crey Agent.
Female Crey Agent.
Crey Scientist.
Power Tank.
Juggernaunt
Male Paragon Protector.
Female Paragon Protector.
Circle of Thorns:
Hordling Lasher.
Behemoth.
Possessed Scientist.
Hordling Beserker.
Behemoth Overlord.
Hellfrost.
Succubus.
(The problem of Robes clipping something awful with kicking powers means that the various Guardians and Mages would have to be left out).
Shivans
Shivan.
Shivan Smasher.
Shivan Destroyer.
Shivan Decimater.
..And that's all I'm going to list for now otherwise it would involve going through for now because otherwise it would require going through every single enemy list and making a list of costumes.
I see this as a workaround to the problem of not being able to get enemy costumes as actual costume pieces and personally I really do like the idea of various packs I could pick and choose from.
This packs would have to be cheap enough to make sense for having multiple packs, prices varying depending on how many costumes are in each pack and offer a special discounted rate if you choose to buy them all perhaps with a bonus excluse costume thrown in (or not).

A real showstopper!
