I'm planning to have my usual kooky fun with the masks: case in point the flashmob of Headless I got together in Dannah Heights by the bridge last yeat. This year: donning the Oracle mask and giving out "candy" (probaby Health and/or RSI pills) trick or treat style.

I've been wanting a Seraph costume for a long time, so that one's a great addition to me.  The Oracle?  Not so much.. but she could make for some cool pictures, so it's not a complete loss by any means.  I also find the choice of going with storyline characters to be a bit odd.. but then again, I'm not sure there were many non storyline characters left worth making masks of.

I don't see the big deal about being a Main Character. I mean if you were a kid still, would you be so uptight about pretending to be your favorite cartoon character?

Commando's.
Elite Commando's.
Wire frame dude and dudette.
Unlimits, male and female.

That are 6 costumes. We get 7 each year? ... General costume, old looks, not the condom'd version. There, that's 7.

I don't really mind these costumes and I do want to farm them all but I'd rather see non-unique looking costumes in game instead of the official characters. I'm sure they'll make up for some great screenshots though. Oracle kicking Seraph's butt with MA: "You do not truly know someone until you fight them." ^.^ I call dibs on the first Motivation picture of that. =P

OK we Merovingians need to feel the love....Please please Ookami ftw....Thats my top choice, then any others...Merv himself, Persey, Malphas, Twins, Beirn...its all good.  Although I know Effy won't allow any clones of him that aren't him in Mega City!

Using main characters = lame.

Just like Syna said, there are plenty of other ones, why use these characters? Seems stupid imo, also a slap in the face for people who want to film with them.

"Oh yea you can film with the characters now! But only for 2 weeks of the year, and under crappy lighting conditions, and when the hardlines are covered with crap, and zombies spawn."

Lame.

Edit: Fix the bloody forums, took me 15 mins to post this.

It's prolly, Agent Gray and Pace or Ookami and Malphas or The Kid and Shimada.

I'm sticking with Morpheus Sim for the Rare.

However, I would not be surprised if it was The General, an Elite Commando or Beirn.

I'm still sitting on the fence on whether I like having main character costumes or not.  It'll give me a great opportunity to take some screenshots for Arch's backstory (requiring The Oracle and others).

Unlimit costumes would've been cool though.

Well, we haven't seen all of the costumes for this year yet, so I'd say it's a little early to write off Halborn.  We already have Elite Commando costumes.  The Unlimits, appearance wise, are very near normal players as is, so all you'd be adding is the code eye effect, which players can get anyway.

I can definitely see The General being made available.. but he's just another story character, so that's not really any different than putting Veil, Cryptos, etc. in.

That leaves the regular commando.  Not a terrible choice for a costume, and if you scrape things together, there's the Box 2 and 3 enemies.. the section 9 commandos, the club guards we don't have yet etc.  Sure you could come up with 7 costumes we don't have yet that are actually "new" but, like I said, the consideration needs to be whether or not they are worthy additions.

Oh, and I'm also begging for Ookami to be one of the Mero masks.  *pleads in Rarebit's general direction*

All you need for an Unlimit costume is code eyes and one of those crappy orange or green 1980's "Body Fuzion" leotards that everyone instantly recycles the second it comes into their inventory.

The pants are missing - they're NPC-only.

Trust me, I've been trying to dig up an Unlimit uniform ever since the Unlimit saga. All I've got is the jacket, a green/black bucklevest, and some Hosh Chaps that make me feel like a butt pirate (Though I confess cutting the arse out lets my tail breathe so it's not too bad).

Pants are only available in black and white for players. Unlimits wear orange and black and I've seen them in gray/black and some other colour I think.
Definitely on my list of clothing that I'd like to see in game; other colour hosh caps.

Very nice! I could go either way on the main character issue. Hopefully, the next group we'll see will make sure everyone gets what they want...
