Oh look, a Market question (re: costumes)

Wanted to ask a little question about the costume packs now available on the Paragon Market; specifically, what they contain. Is it only the costume pieces - with other parts that were previously part of the Boosters sold separately - or does the 400-point pack contain the entire set?

If the latter applies, has there been any word on a bundle of the previous booster sets being put together?

I suspected as much what with the lower price of the set. Thanks for the answer.

Guess it gives me chance to pick and choose which parts I'd like to go with the clothes. (Although it would be nice to have the option for a bulk purchase of the entire pack)

I was wondering this as well although that makes the origins pack really overpriced since it was mostly auras....

I made the mistake of buying the Origins bundle. I figured the auras likely wouldn't be included, but I guess I was feeling impulsive. Honestly, I don't think I'll bother with costume bundles in the future. The individual pieces are pretty cheap, and I doubt I'll ever make use of an entire set. Since all pieces are available to play with in the costume creator, I can easily pick them up as needed.

They did try and make sure that buying the costume bundles were cheaper than actually buying the same pieces one by one. But recreating the entire booster packs now will be more expensive than if you had bought them before, even with the costume bundle discount.

Actually, it will be more expensive in terms of points used. The VIP 400 and bulk discounts for large purchases of points can probably bring it back to about the same price overall. But still nice to have the option of just buying what you want, when you want.

Any word on whether or not the Martial Arts costume set will be a bundle available in the future? I didn't buy that booster specifically because all I wanted was the the costume set.
