I know what you mean by that, when I brought the new Martial Arts booster I was having trouble finding the pre-made set for it in the dropdowns. It took a little while but I found it near the end of the list.|

As we get more booster packs, and more specials, it would be great if we could get them easily identified in the creator - even if it's a separate drop down for each pack/special, not dissimilar to the Costume Sets option at the top of the creator. Maybe there should be a "Booster Sets" drop down in there too? Much as I love the character creator, it's getting a bit big and unwieldy now so anything that helps is gonna be good |
When you find the pre-made costume for the set all you need to do is look for the common name of the parts used, as well as the alternate styles. For instance Martial Arts has two common part names 'Warrior' and 'Tai', if you look for those names in the list you'll know they're part of the booster.
But they're not always as clear as that I admit, and not everybody is knowledgeable about the complexity of the character creator as well. It would help if they let players know the names and creator locations of all the pieces. Like how the Oni guard face piece is located as 'Detail 2' on the head. That was the hardest piece to find for me.

Don't get me started on the Skull Mask in the magic booster set. I was looking around for no less than 10 minutes trying to find it in the Mask section only to realize... It wasn't a mask! It was a mask that wasn't!
