There were some talk about a 'Beast Booster' which would most likely contain animal parts you're talking about. But when that booster will come out, if at all, and if with anything people are looking for, we don't know.
Also expect a bunch of p****s to shoot your suggestion down for being remotely connected to anything furry, even if you're not one. And people shouting "City of furries". Even though some of us have legitimate character concepts that would work amazingly well with animal costume pieces but have to contend with such labels.
The monstrous heads are a bit limited I must agree, I believe the lizard/dragon head is about the best one out of the bunch but none of them are as customisable as the human-shaped heads.

See my thread here 
Feel free to comment on it.
And if anyone flames it and calls you a furry, there's a report abuse button for a reason. That is all ^_^
There was a time when we were promised more animal parts in the Mutant / Mutation Booster; when they revealed the actual booster, enough people called foul that they threw in the wolf-tail last second. It would still be nice to get these parts, or at least access to the animal parts that already exist on NPCs.
Still hoping the promised animal/anthro pack is in the works, somewhere...
Given it was pretty clearly talked about, until the posts in question mysteriously vanished overnight.

Maybe because people so often use it in the same vein as an insult?

If you consider calling people names like that as anything less than abuse... that's all that needs to be said indeed.

Precisely. What a term means is often less important than how the use of a term is meant, and that particular one has become an insult. Most people who ascribe to that will simply know better than to use it, which only leaves people seeking to offend.

To be exact, a fair chunk of the anthro art based fandom still use 'Furry' to refer to anthropormorphic art and its fans. For the most part, however, people use it as an insult and derogartory comment.
In the same way that g*y people simply used to be the life and sould of parties, happy and generally easy going, its now used as a term with only sexual connotations.
This is also the reason I refere exclusively to my own art as anthro art, because thats what it is and that is the extent of what I do; artwork. Anyone suggesting otherwise can man up and say it to my face.
They can also pay for flying to the UK to do so, giving me the added bonus of laughing at them

I've seen quite a lack of animal characters in our super hero world when there are many in DC and Marvel (Killer Croc, Beast etc)
I was trying to make an wild animal character for my claws brute. I realise that the body parts that can be used to create an animal or a beast looking character is quite limited.
It would be nice to have some more animal heads, say a lion head or some sort of wolf heads. Rabbit or kitten heads would be fun too. It is not possible to add any head gear on those Monster Heads at the moment. I think changing that would be good. Good to see an armoured beast.
There is no paw at the moment. The monstrous feet options are again quite limited. Feline and Canine ones would be a nice addition.
Hedgehog and dinosaur costumes are fun too.
