Speaking of which, Sister Psyche needs a unique hairstyle since her one seems to keep changing in the comics and official CGI artwork!But I do like the "Enemy Group Parts" idea. Each group has their own thing to contribute. Examples:
Carnies: Masks, ringmistress thigh-high boots and the gloves which go past elbow length
Cimerorans: He-Man chest armour (I dunno what it's called, but it looks great for barbarian types!)
Cimeroran Traitors: Minotaur and Cyclop heads
Crey: Paragon Protector outfits and helmet
Freakshow: Various Freakshow parts like the arms, for example
Wyvern: Boots (since their backpack parts are probably not doable yet)
Kheldians: The SASHES! Good god, why do we not have them yet? XD

I'd still like enemy costume parts to be unlocked after getting defeat badges from them. Take out enough Freakshow and you're bound to be able to rip off at least a couple of usable robo-arms, and so on.
Make it part of an issue, thus eliminating some of the complaints about us never getting any good cossies in the free updates.
Agree that we're unlikey to get signature characters' unique pieces. I would like it if we got similar parts though. I'm not all for Ms Liberty's belt and sword combo, but I'd be all for a few variations on the theme, this piece in particular IMO since we've got the similar police officer belt/nightstick combo.
@craggy see me on Union for TFs, SFs (please!) or just some good ol fashioned teaming.
how aobut one to allow you to story recipes in your base?
Fluffy Bunny 1 Person SG
Rabid Bunny 1 Person VG
Both on Pinnacle
Hobbit's Hole 1 Person SG
Spider's Web 1 Person VG
Both on Freedom
After the mutant booster, I expect to see a Weapons Booster pack.

There's even a decent name you could use for it, call the pack 'Enemy Mine'
I know that if they go through booster packs again, it might be interesting to go over national/continental flavors.
I'm mostly saying this since I would love a Shinsengumi coat or a haori.

Want faction stuff, very much so. Making a Column trooper or Nemesis character is damn hard. Things like the Column helmets and masks, maybe the chest, glove and boot plates. Nemesis helmets and armour-jacket. Malta and PPD/guards gun slings and webbing (the chest details)
And if it has to be unlockable, make it simple to get! 100 minions or something, not 100 kills of a Boss that only spawns at 41+ and barely ever unless you farm specific missions (I'm looking at YOU Fake Nemesis!)

Would Love Rikti and other Baddie type stuff, been wanting to make a 'Rikti' Char but nothing that looks remotely close to rikti armor means no rikti char.

Booster Pack: Boosters!
Costume jetpacks are here! Whether you're an old-style rocketeer or want that sleek high-tech look, there's a customizable flightpack to match your crimefighting style!
In this new booster we bring you six different backslot flight machine designs that you can color to match your costume, and you can choose the exhaust you want as well, or no exhaust at all! (And they'll also activate for leaping powers!)
But wait, there's more! Jetbelts! Flight helmets! And a special lifesaving parachute power!
All yours for just $10!!!
(Seriously, I've been waiting almost six years for costume jetpacks. Where the heck are they?)

While we're at it... I'd really like the Hellions logo as a chest icon. I've a few Hellions characters and I've had to make do with Magic 2.

I have been into RPG's and running old school pen and paper RP games since I was 11 years old (I'm 36 at the time of this post) but it is my belief that each booster pack should have its own "travel" togg wether it be fast(ninja run) or slow(Undead stagger),give you some kind of resistance(Mek walk) or effect(Magic). I think it would make us all happy in the end. Players would get more things to customize their toons and the Dev's can get paid... see it all would work itself out!
I come from infinity and travel to the void... my global is Grimm Brotherhood and I would be more than happy to put some of my endless ideas to some use.
As long as I know... well , that's good enough for me.
Oh yea and before I forget I think MM's should be able to customize their minions! I know its an unrelated request but WHO"S WITH ME! ....lol... no , but seriously...

While we're at it, if there's a Pet Customization option, that'll probably entail us being able to choose from various "styles" of pets (like for instance, choose between the Thugs we already have, Pirates, Cowboys/bounty hunters, and Bodyguards) - so why not combine this feature with the unlockable-NPC-costume-parts idea and have NPC pet styles? Once you get whichever defeat badge, you would unlock a style of pet with an appearance that corresponds to the defeat badge you just got - so still following the theme of the Thugs mastermind, you could make your pets look like Hellions, or Trolls, Family, or maybe even cops. They'd behave the same way mechanically, of course, but they would LOOK like the NPC groups, which I'm sure would make a lot of people very happy. Pretty much every MM powerset has something you could put here - Mech Men and Nemesis bots for the Robotics types, Banished Pantheon Chamners/Husks and (obviously) Vazhilok cadavers, abominations, and eidolons for the Necromancers, Nemesis/Council/Fifth Column/Whatever for the Soldiers, Tsoo for the Ninjas - this could work, I think.

I'd pay more than 10 bucks for that, flash. That hellions character I was talking about? He's a Thugs MM. Putting my Thugs in Hellions costumes would be a top priority for me. And MM is a villain class, so it'd make sense with the defeat badges. After defeating 50 Damned, you can opt to become a Hellions leader. That's pretty much how the Joker works: kill guys in charge until the underlings obey you.

Rikti booster please.
The Rikti have been a major part of the game story long enough to warrant an archetype made in their image IMHO, but giving us their costume parts would do just as well
MM Customiosation is already in the pipe. It just takes more time than regular customisation due to what it involves i.e.;
Minion models, LT models, Boss model, Minion with upgrade 1, LT wit upgrade 1, boss with upgrade 1, Minion with upgrade 2, LT with upgrade 2, Boss with upgrade 2, Minion with both upgrades, LT with both upgrades, Boss with both upgrades.
Now multiply that by however many styles there might be. It's a lot of work.
I want my bots customisable as much as the next guy. But I'd also rather have it look nice and work well than be plain suck. So, patience is required.

Does anyone know roughly what to expect in the Mutant Pack? Im lookin for more animal heads! I have some bull characters that I need heads for. Also the super serum and formula that I got with the Science Pack need animal forms to be able to change into.
Enemy Mine Booster would rock! We need some enemy pieces, not whole costumes, pieces would be nice.
SN0WJ0B: 50 ice/ice Blaster, InvulnerBull: 50 inv/ss Tanker, Death.Venom: 50 nec/poison MM
Check out my slideshow
Also, Sports Booster Pack!
Football helmet, shoulders, pants, cleats
Baseball jersey (since we have the bat and cap)
Basketball shorts
Hockey helmet, jersy, shoulders, stick for war mace
Cricket paddle for war mace
Fencing face shield
etc.
SN0WJ0B: 50 ice/ice Blaster, InvulnerBull: 50 inv/ss Tanker, Death.Venom: 50 nec/poison MM

I would love a science/tech booster that focused on the Rikti.
armour styles
weapons
Rikti Head options
Booster Pack Power:
Rikti teleporter power that had perhaps 3 locations it went to (predetermined anchors like say, PI at the Portal Corp, Atlas Park, RWZ or something.) and complete with the sound effect. Long recharge like normal.
not sure what emotes.
For other Boosters. I really hope the Mutant pack has some new animal heads, lion, bear, bull, eagle... that sort of thing.
