I'd be willing to bet those costumes will make their way to the market again, but not so sure that it'd be some time not part of the Halloween season. The Think Tank piece is pretty awesome. I bought the pack for that alone.
Yeah, I hope that isn't the case. I'd love to see them available year-round or more frequently at the least, even if they were available at a higher price during other times of years or not sold as a bundle.

I would guess it will come back every Halloween, but that's just a guess. Would be nice if they added to it every Halloween as well, though that would make it complicated for people who already bought it. Maybe add new packs each year. Next Halloween have Pack I and Pack II for sale, with Pack II having more fishman parts and a mummy set and invisible head and gloves (like the invisible man). Then next year add Halloween Pack III, with a full costume set of a skeleton, complete with see through ribcage. Every year, come up with something new. I'd love that.

Also guessing next (and every) Halloween, only time I've ever bought points for an item (just for the Think tank to be honest)

Here's hoping that Paragon will listen to the community about releasing restricted sales on themed costumes because at the moment, they're sticking to the original plan of cycling limited availability ones.|

Paragon Studios' marketing department should instead consider offering the so-called holiday-themed items at a reduced price during the event and then keep them available at full price for the rest of the year.
In the real world, holiday items are offered to coincide with the event, produced in the carefully estimated amounts to meet demand, and then greatly reduced afterward to clear whatever remaining stock in time for the next holiday. None of that matters with virtual goods since production and inventory aren't concerns at all and marketing/advertising is only a nominal cost.
Instead of coming up with new sales tactics (*cough*SuperPacks*cough*), Paragon should first sort out the best ways to sell its regular items, e.g. year-round.

I really loved that bundle, but missed the chance to get it by a few days and would love to have that opportunity again. They were such great pieces with so much potential, and so many of them, its a shame to see them be so limited in their availability!
