I was kind of expecting that Praetorian Clockwork Transformation Power would look more like this 
than what you can create with the costume set.

Hi, Finnish. Thought you might want to use an alpha version of Calvin for your avatar. On the non-blue skins, he doesn't look as stencil-y. So, save the pic below if you want to use it.|

I get what you're saying (and it is kinda lame to get a transformation power that just mimics costumes we already have), but the first image is a Warworks ACU, not a Clockwork. An ACU transformation power would be pretty awesome, though.

Thank you, Champion.

Just a quick FYI/history lesson: the costume code that originally gave this Praetorian Clockwork transformation power was given out to interested parties at a convention just after Going Rogue was announced--about a year before its release--and the costume options were not available to us at the time.

I did notice the name difference, but....anyway, 'We Need Warworks Costume Set!' or the 'Transformation To Warworks!'
Thanks for the Faster, Better and Stronger avatar, Zombie Man.
As long as you are posting pics, any vic pics available? I have a concept build in mind. Always seems weird to me that they don't include pics of their products.

Well, I am sure glad I hesitated yesterday to buy some points. "I'll wait till next payday" I thought. Pffft. I hope they set all prices to zero for the remainder of time.

Time to end this discussion. Store bought enhancements never have been, and currently can't be, converted. Period.
It it YOUR memory that is faulty, so please stop starting rumors such as "Store bought enhancements never have been, and currently can't be, converted. They HAVE been able to be converted in the past.
They may not be able to be converted now, and that may be due to a change due to someone having the same thought process you used. However, without having seen a patch note saying this was intentionally changed, that seems to be a bug.
People tested these when they were on Beta. They could be converted. When they first went Live they could be converted. Zombie Man gives a direct statement about his testing. Others tested it as well. I successfully converted SBE's after first seeing reports of being able to do so in Beta.
Just because YOU weren't in Beta and didn't test it and didn't test it yourself when it went Live doesn't mean that it never worked.
At one time, SBEs were incontrovertibly convertible.
The first I heard of a lock on conversion for any Enhancement Set was the Overwhelming Force Set.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.
Black Pebble is my new hero.
