In the course of replaying old Elachi missions for a Romulan alt I couldn't help but be impressed by the designs of the Elachi pets and drones. All share a very unique and creepy aesthetic and seem right in line with many of the newer drone pet modules we've been recieving as rewards lately. Back in the LoR days, theses pets were released in a summonable form, as a consumable device.. for Lobi.

My question is this, who is actually spending precious lobi on these devices and would you like to see these added by the devs in a more permanent reusable form as a kit module either for lobi OR as a future TFO reward.
Just putting this out there to see if anyone else would like to have more pets to choose from as a pet focused engineer character, using assets and stats already in the game.

It costs too much Lobi to justify use on consumable things (in relation to EC amount for a Key, let alone Zen for a Key to open a random amount out of a box; not even mentioning cost of R&D and Doff Promos...), vs using for the ground gear, space gear, ships, and unique items on the store.
It only makes sense that Republic scientists and engineers have reverse engineered the elachi constructs to be re-usable by incorporating their own technology.
