These packs are indeed fun and with quite good pricings !
And if anybody wants to check them out beforehand, I've set up a few videos showing the emotes, costume changes and auras from both packs.
Winter Holiday
- Snowflakes and Gift Emotes
- Naughty and Nice Halos Auras
- Present Costume Change
New Year
- Firework Emotes
- Firework Aura
- Confetti Costume Change
My YouTube videos of auras, emotes and other stuff from special promotions, incarnate purchaseables, etc...
VERY enticing indeed. I may have to pick this up for both accounts as well. And I suddenly got an idea for a toon, like I need any more than I already have. lol

Shouldn't this information be easily and readily available? Why should anyone need to ask? I'm sure it is noted someplace accessible to the community at large, but it was not here nor in the information from the store.

As stated in my signature - even at 25% discount this still seems awfully expensive. Considering this isn't priority item to purchase like new powersets of costume sets. I think I will pass.

And yes, currently overpriced, in my opinion. Should be 240 points or less, considering it was once a minor part of a $10 booster pack containing emotes, numerous costume parts, and the super tailor access.

It is actually specified in the individual items description in the market, however not in the package description.

I got the New Years pack- very nice.
well a bit of fluff,some i will get when i get my next PP awarded,not spending real money for these.
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
I could only wish for a slightly different, casting animation for the emotes (for those of us that would like these to be a part of our powers somehow), but these are still quite fun. Good idea for a pack!
