Will the T'Kuvma Outfit in the new pack give our Klingon's the Discovery Body/Head Look and not just the Uniform?

    Just the uniform, unfortunately. This would have been the perfect place to add that head option...but I can't say I'm surprised either.

    In one livestream they said that the initial wave of Discovery stuff has Klingons that use non-customizable heads. They didn't need to make new character models for the Discovery Feds they used. They initially built the costumes for the Discovery Feds as customizable, but they did that BEFORE making the sub-faction playable. For AoD launch they apparently did a rush job on the Klingon costumes and build a non-customizable version for the NPCs. now we get customizable costumes, character models will probably come eventually.

    So here is the thing: I bought the boff in question. And I can edit/customize their head in the tailor. Not a lot, but just as much as you can with ferengi and they are a playble species. So we have a customizable head currently in game, just not available to players. That is a choice someone made, and the "why" can obviously be debated.

    This observation is from another post under this same General thread about the outfit:

    my guess is they are still working out the kinks. i wouldnt be surprised if we see dsc klingons in the next few weeks, there arent any ridge options yet or hair so that may be whats holding them back
