Adding redraw would make them entirely new powersets. It's not just an animation then. So... no on that.
However, I'm sure that eventually most if not all powersets will come with options like SS and MA do in I16.

Now that the technology needed to create alternative animations and change colors on powers is finally here we can perhaps start reskinning powersets. Let me give an example:
Assault Rifle:
The idea here is to take all the powers in Assault Rifle and give them a new animation, similar to how Super-strength and Martial Arts now have alternate animations to choose from. The new animations should ideally turn AR from a weapon-based set into a non-weapons set. Yes, that's right: bullets, flames and grenades shoot from your hands (or cleverly disguised guns inside your arms - work with me here), a shoulder cannon, a back-mounted grenade launcher, or whatever. Imagine AR without redraw - a dream for many of us. The best part? With power customization we can choose to use a gun for some of the powers, and the alternate hands-free version for others.
Fire Blast:
"Whoa, why does fire blast need new animations?", you ask. Well of course it doesn't really need them, but how many times have we not wanted to be able to shoot these and other elemental powers from a staff or a wand like a wizard or classical Kirby threat? This would of course turn these sets into weapon-based sets which would demand redraw, but that's the price you have to pay for getting your own sweet fully customizable power focus. Other options would include crystal spheres, gems, strange devices, freaking rifles, a sci-fi handgun, etc etc.
I'm sure we can all think of other ways to make our good old powersets seem like brand new sets just by adding more options to customize them. Let's hear your ideas.
