I know the Devs have to maintain some costume items as "signature NPC only" and that's understandable. But the thing I've always thought was ironic about those awesome fashion show costume items (like the boots and belt from the pic above) was that they were technically generic FASHION SHOW items. Wouldn't the whole idea behind them be that they were always INTENDED to be available to the general public of Paragon City (a.k.a. the players)?

Oh what I would do for this costume.
That costume, but don't forget Lady Gray's SHIRT. Her skirt and boots don't go with anything else.


Loyalist, Resistance, Hero, Villain. All boring, Rogue is where the fun is.
40+ month veteran, and only one 50(+3)
My input/requests is just as good as your as I spend $15 Just like you do.

lol
So very true. I never used that boots. I like them, even the foot is too damn big, but I never know what can I use to combine them.

I just realised we're missing something else:

The Reptillian skin for gloves under Monster gloves under Robotic Arm 3. I checked, and it's there everywhere else, including:

Robotic Arm 1 -> Monstrous gloves -> Reptilian (and Monstrous Fur) exit
Robotic Arm 2 -> Monstrous gloves -> Reptilian (and Monstrous Fur) exit
Robotic Arm 3 -> Smooth/Bare gloves -> Reptilian (and Monstrous Fur) exit

Robotic Arm 3 -> Monstrous gloves -> Reptilian (and Monstrous Fur) DO NOT EXIST. And they should

Now that the NDA has been lifted, I'd like the 'old' versions of the Alpha and Omega auras to return somehow, even if it's under a new name. They were awesome

For comparison...

Warrior Pants!

They were gone, they were back for a couple months, and now they're gone again.

I would be happy just to see a couple of the mouth pieces on the full helmet options show up under half helmet options, like the vanguard one and anouther that I can't remember its name but it looked like the mouthpieces you see on the faces of those gundam mecha.

Female Arachnos minions, please. That should be one of the easier groups to add in female options for, t'be honest.

There was something else I was gonna add...but its gone and skipped my mind now...

Did you by chance happen to get this from the CoH/V art collection book? If so (mine isn't in reaching distance) can you scan a pic of the robotics and insect costume design?
I was looking at it and said to myself thats not in game. The robot set looks kinda similar to the new "clockwork" design. The insect drawing has some rather cool pieces also.


p.s. and yes the female Arachnos boots are sweet! must have!

Me: From a certain point of view?
Prometheus: You're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on your point of view.
Me: You're right about that. Power Blast is very pretty from a certain point of view. But that point of view is not head-on. <Kaboom> - Arcanaville.

Do you have shots of the men outfits?

There was a combo with I think Malaise top pattern, sleeveless trench with tattered sleeves that gave you the armless option. Please bring that back?

Please bring back the old faces. I was going to make a Praetorian version of an old character today and there's no getting close.

Old Face #1:



New Face #1:



Yikes No wonder I keep using the same small handful of faces these days.

Syndicate costume pieces.

I'm pretty sure most if not all the old faces are in there, just with a different number now.

Nope, most of the faces were replaced with more stern or hostile versions of their old selves. The closest I can come to my original face is this one (Face 11) which isn't very close at all:



That one at least has sort of the same mouth although the eyes are different in both shape and color. Most mouths don't have any smile to them at all any more unless it's some huge toothy grin.

The one you are looking for is Young Face 9:

Going back to actual 'lost' items again, I've been wanting the original Pointy Ears of the old 'Heads with Pointy Ears' head back ever since they replaced them with the new ear system. If you could make some 'Pointy Ears' for the new ear system that are shaped like the old Pointy Ears, I'd be grateful. (They might stand a -little- refinement -- the old ones really did have a very sharp point that made them look a bit low-poly, but very small tweaks only!)

I did see one other post earlier in this thread about them, but the ears in the shots were mostly covered by hair. Here's a shot showing the original 'Pointy Ears' as well as one showing the current 'Elf Ears' for comparison. Looking at them from the side, with the head in profile, is the way to really see the differences that make the Elf Ears unappealing, as a substitute. (To me, anyway.)

First, the old, original Pointy Ears:


Then the new, current Elf Ears:


And don't you DARE take away the ability to use this hairstyle and the tiara together! I can accept the slight clip, really. I'd be really, REALLY unhappy to suddenly not be able to use these to create this look anymore.

Hey, you seem to be correct. I had looked through the young faces before but didn't catch it for whatever reason. I guess because I usually associate the female Young Faces choices with being either wide-eyed or Asian looking.

Thanks for the correction.

...WANT!!!!

Along with practially everything else in this thread.

A costume piece that could GET lost, if you ask me: the new Omega hairstyle. I swear I nearly snorted my drink out of my nose when I saw that. Its just seriously, seriously bad.

Giving us these high-heeled Arachnos boots for women would be a nice way to atone for the crimes my eyes suffered while viewing the Omega hair, tho. [hint hint]

In CoV Beta there was a puffy pirate shirt that I loved. I'm not sure if it didn't make it to live or if it was removed thereafter, but its been gone for a long time now. If it is still in the database, bring it back!

Yes, that is the one. Its not too bad from the front, but you omitted the funniest view: from the side. No offense, but I think they could have come up with something a tidge less cumbersome.

Oh well, cant' win 'em all. I don't care for this, but we got a lot of other sweet costumes - Alpha may well be the most beautiful armor in the game so far - so I am not gonna complain.
