So is it time to introduce the "Skant"

spacebaronlinespacebaronline Member Posts: 1,103 Arc User
Since seeing some of the new clothing items upcoming in - well I can't really say without this thread disappearing - I was wondering about the "Skant" from the first 2 seasons of TNG (although technically it made an appearance in S7 "all good things" in one of the past sequences)

I am wondering if that actor shaved his legs for his role it that episode.

    Sure, why not.

    Some mid-length skirts'd be nice too.

    More skirt options in general, really.

    I fixed that little typo.

    Still more costume items for the game are always welcome. I would prefer Cryptic sold more vanity items then power creep.

    I think Taco said in another Skant thread a while ago that they are talking about that always.

    I hope and pray one day, when they finally start working on it, Taco gets an interview on a podcast.

    "So, Taco, the usual last question... Is there anything upcoming you can shed any light on? Any little leaks you can give us? Annnyyythhhiiiiiinnnggg?"

    Its canon add it. I can't think of a better uniform for doing a little trolling. Funny what people get upset about. lol

    Seriously though add these and add some male kilts to the same pack, even up the Yin and Yang of it.

    Exactly - It's an official canon Starfleet Uniform - created at Gene's request in fact!!

    I see no reason why it can't be added to the game.

    Perhaps the modellers have issues with doing male knees.

    i think the most amusing thing, is that some folks seem to forget(or don't know) that skants were unisex.

    its just a TNG version of the TOS dress uniform some women characters used, but it can be used for both sexes and its canon, so stop whining.

    and i highly doubt you'll see male characters everywhere using it, and even if there were, so what?

    Exactly

    You think I want this for the Zapp Brannigan look?

    Well, yes, but not just that!

    I want that sweet sweet space cheerleader look. And my Lib. Borgette has the legs for the job.

    Some people just have an aversion to male legs. :rolleyes:

    I totally agree, and skirts in general for klingons too

    And furthermore, I always pondered why there was no Klingon Kilt option. Both the males and females could wear it, and I think it could be awesome. But seriously, unless you wanna be a sex slave, there is no non pants options for the Klingon ladies.

    *edit* seriously though I'll make a character and spend zen on him if you'll add the Skant....shoulda been the anniversary present, I woulda actually grind(ground, grinded?) it

    Whats funny is people have been asking for a male skirt since day one... perhaps Cryptic is anti trek.

    While we're asking for things can I get a ripped-up TOS shirt?

    It's utterly baffling to me that one of the most iconic Trek looks of all time failed to get into this game before Bajoran Vedek outfits and that welding mask Khan wore for like two minutes.

    The thing is this -

    1) It's an Official CANON Starfleet Uniform - for both males AND Females

    2) It's so controversial - that Cryptic would probably sell a Hundred thousand copies - just for the novelty at first.
