    I was excited about this EP... until I saw what it was including.


    I actually thought it would be classic movie stuff.. like Marilyn Monroe's classic white dress in The Seven Year Itch... or her pink gown in Gentleman Prefer Blondes..

    I was hoping for more classic wear, the classic styles of the 1950's-1960's and the styles of the movies of that era...

    Horror films, such a vast genre, and they have more Disney-fied horror outfits from the images that they have released...

    Westerns, I like the images, but for real... no other words...

    Hereos... SERIOUSLY EA??!


    I thought this was more classic movie items...


    Rant over..

      I agree. However, I ended up liking the result just as well so. *shrug*

      Well, it does appear to be based on classic films. Classic genre films. The superhero stuff definitely has a retro appearance, they said the western stuff was based on the spaghetti western films of the '60s, and the horror movie stuff looks more like things you'd find in old horror films. I actually love the superhero stuff. :oops:

      Anyway, I'm sorry that you're disappointed. But, there are a few classic glam '50s and '60s sets in the store.

      I thought Gone with the Wind, Wizard of OZ and Film Noir Classic Movie myself.

      We already have the pink dress it is not tied to a set so it can be missed (it has the bow in the back, gloves and jewelry):

      The Hair or close to it (one of my favs too):

      A somewhat close (it is longer) Seven Year Itch Dress but it is tied to the theater Venue:

      And another Hair do that could work:

      Killer Curls

      Other great classic outfits we already have not tied to sets:

      I really hope this helps and make you feel better about the SP not being what you wanted :)

      Ugh, you can't please everyone.
      As HallowenessDevour stated; We've already got so much crap in the Store that has to do with 20s, 30s, 40s Stuff.

      I for one am glad we're getting Western; It looks pretty good and it'll be interesting to use.

      Horror, although I personally think we got way too much of it with SN, is my favourite genre and I'll be glad to play with it.
      And it isn't 'Disney-fied' Horror, it is classic Horror. Not the Slasher crap you see on TV today.

      And finally I'm super excited for the Heros' Theme; so many people have been asking for Superheros and Villains in TS3 and since they won't be the occult in ITF at least they are giving us attire and objects so we can make/imagine our own Heros'.
