Mysterious Costume Trunk

The Mysterious Costume Trunk has been getting heavy recently, and it's time to take a couple pieces of clothing out of it ;) 6 of the Costume Trunk sets have been retired :o!

So, the centuar is gone. Explains why I can't find a price for my centaur belt or ground.

Damn, I should have opened mine when I got it yesterday.
I was still deciding. Most of my Favourites have retired now.
Looks like I wasted 6mil <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />

man don't cry like it's the world's end....
it was time for them to retire as keith wanted to do that since month! you all had enough time to get you the trunks! it was said even before the ".org-problem"
i got the older ones each, and it was nice that we were told before that this would happen.

so if you bought other items instead that is not keith's or the team's fault!

I'm glad I... don't collect costume trunks. X3
*wonders if Subeta's CS trunk purchases jumped after this news because everyone wants to grab the trunks that are still available before they're retired as well* >_>

Wonder what we'll see next. Got all that empty space in the trunk now... *Kitty Following settles into it* Aww, that's just cute. <3

TrashPrinceDio

Oh great.
Here's me thinking that they'd be retired in chronological order, so I bought all the old ones first.
What an idiot I am. Now I'll never get that vampire trunk.

I am just glad I have the entire female vampire set - and some of my favorites pieces of the Lolita female set. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> I will just have to buy the mime suspenders.

If the vamp set is so popular, doesn't that mean it makes money for the site? Why retire it?

Honestly, I think the HobGoblin costume set should have gone instead of the vamp one :/

Am I the only one that 'doesn't' care about the vampire trunks ? Ah well, I'll have to just tick off things from my WL one by one ...

And, new trunks possibly ? That would be fantastic.

Awwa, makes me sad. lol. Is there a list anywhere of which ones were retired? Does anyone know if the Centuar one was?

Arya_784

It makes sense to me how Keith and the staff chose to retire the sets they did.

I'm just hoping for some new sets in the near future <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />

i actually think this is great. i was planning on getting the male vampire + mime trunk soon, but oh well. happy i got the mech suit trunks before they retired. ♥

Hmm I guess that does make sense. I know a lot of the pieces from the set were ~100k. Still sucks seeing as it was one of the most popular, but I can see your logic in it.

Out of curiosity, do you plan on ever bringing some of those sets back in the future, like rotating them back in and retiring the others?

I am so glad I have my favorite pieces/sets. =)
I can't wait for more trunks to come out.

Falorie

Oh noes <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" /> I knew I should've picked these up sooner. I've been wanting the backdrops from the vampire hunter box. I just didn't know how I'd go about it (buying the trunks and selling the pieces i didn't want or the just the backdrops separately). So now I'm screwed <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

I also wanted to pick up a Mime box and hold on to it for the <strong>female</strong> set incase it was made anytime soon. I was assuming they would release it before retiring the trunk, but I guess I was wrong heh. Will a female set even be released now?

InvaderGEL

I'm lucky that the only Costume Trunk set that I'm really wanting is Android Dystopia. I know we were warned and all, but I still feel bad for the people who lost their chance at getting one of the older sets and now have to buy the items from user shops.

I bought the gothic lolita wig earlier this morning, glad I finally did. I really need to keep better track of what I do and don't have. There are so many trunks now, I get confused. o.O

User not found:

Well, that motivates me to get the ones I want off my wishlist, then. I have everything I want off those that retired, except the Lolita ones, mostly. They said they'd start retiring them, though, so I'm not surprised. Good luck to everyone who wants some of the ones that have been retired, and I can't wait to see what new ones will come out! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />

As for less people buying them now... *goes and buys three more* I'm just motivated to get the ones I want before they retire! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /> (They might've retired the ones that had been bought the most, now that I think about it, which makes sense, if those boxes had more items in circulation than the rest.)

I don't get why they retired the vampire one.

Meh. Now this makes getting that Vampire Hunters Orb harder for me to get.
I gotta get cracking if I wanna get my others before they retire (elven Kingdoms, the one with the Cyber-Soldiers in it, and Knights Helmet).

I didn't think the Vampire Hunter Costume Trunk was that old. Wasn't it one of the relatively newer trunks?

Technically, Keith did give us a warning. He'd said that some of the trunks would be retired soon, though he'd said that quite a while ago actually.

I'm sure there's a reason for retiring such well-received trunks. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> We'll have to wait and see.

This just kind of makes me angry. I was about to buy some for my wishlist. Now some of the ones I wanted most are gone. I hadn't bought them yet because I assumed I could later. We should have been given a warning.

Oh good, the one I want is still available. I was just getting ready to buy two trunks (one to squirrel away) from user shops when the news was posted.

Rebecca_324

I actually think retiring the popular one will end up raising sales. It might be a good move by them, if you think about it. Now more people will be rushing off to buy their other favorite sets in fear that they'll retire soon as well. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" />
I am sad to see the mime go though <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" /> I needed those suspenders

I don't think that it was the best idea to retire the Vampire Box. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_shocked.gif" border="0" /> Anyways, let's see what will now come to replace them. *goes to makes Wishlist smaller again* Bye bye, Mime Box items. :/

Xiria - seriously. I only wanted to buy the trunk for one particular set, and now that that's gone, I don't see a point.

Makes no sense to retire one of the most popular ones. XD I would think it would put a dent (if even a small one) in profits.

PanChan

I still needed the Gothic Lolita male set. Guess I won't be buying a costume trunk now. I think this will only lower their sales.

Wow. I am surprised to see the Vampire Hunter and Mech Suit ones gone. Was hoping they would retire the Galactic Empire trunk <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
0

Seerow

Yeah, I'm a bit confused on the Love Demon and Vampire sets being retired too, seeing as how those were two of the most popular. Viking, Goblin, and a few of the others that remain, while nice don't get me wrong, probably weren't the ones that most people bought CTs to get.

Maybe this means we'll be getting some more sets soon though <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />

Wow, Vampire Trunk, Gothic Lolita, and Love Demon are all gone... Well, I'm not buying a Mysterious Costume Trunk now. *wonders why they'd retire Vampire Hunter Trunk with how popular it is* I mean, really... This just sounds like it'll decrease the sales of Mysterious Costume Trunks. Not sure how many people will want to buy them anymore without these sets...
