Accessories and gear costume set

bioshrike

Almost all of the costume sets that have been released focus on some coherent theme or look - wizards, samurai, power armor, etc. What I'd like to see is a set that focuses on those of us that mix and match pieces, and find certain locations on our characters to be lacking in options. I'm mainly talking about arm accessories, leg accessories, neck wear, non-emblem chest pieces, and backpacks.

I'd really like to see things like more jetpacks - preferably ones w/ large fixed wings, form-fitting backpacks w/ cloth/leather/metal options, more elbow and knee pads, gorgets/neck guards, scarves w/ 2 tails, slimmer shoulder-to-forearm armor pads, (like the sci-fi arm accessories, only not as thick), and pretty much all the melee and ranged weapons as back/hip/side options, (where applicable).

I'd also like to see steampunk-styled "ornithopter" wings and underarm webbing. Other pieces, like a military style radio/comm pack would be nice, as would something like a back-mounted mortar launcher or a backpack w/ multiple weapons attached - like a slung rifle, pistol, shotgun, etc.

It's not an unreasonable request, as requests go.

A pack of accessories for the z-store is a good idea. We've had mixed results with the jet pack set and the weapons pack [too few items per set]. Also these can be re-used as in game Drifter store pieces [assuming this recent thing with the kung fu weapons worked out].

Actually, I was joking. I would love this

I agree this would be great, but I think hard to execute which is why they moved or stick with a "theme" for design.

Usually I find that each set has a couple pieces that mix in very well with what I'm looking for on a couple toons and so far I've been happy with that. One gripe for me would be tights because I know they could create more basic pattern tights with various shapes. The only example to give you an idea that comes to mind is something like this.

More chest designs. I wouldn't think that would be too hard.

More armour pieces for the upper arm to make it easier to make full suits would be great! And a set of new generic and versatile pieces would be excellent.

Could i also suggest an extra set of optional pieces for the backs of bubbledome helmets, as for flying characters (thankfully other than floating brains, but i have other characters who face this problem) the back of the head tends to poke right out of the backs of the helmets.
