This is a touchy subject, i can honestly say that opinion on whether or not costumes should be obtainable in the game is 50-50 split; so lets take a look at the pros and cons shall we?
Pros :
1. Everyone has a chance of getting a costume which they've always wanted...
2. It introduces another rare into the community which was pretty short on rares after the dupe made chefs and cooks easily accessible.
3. They're difficult to get and so act as rewards for those who have worked hard enough to get them.
4. Since they're so desireable people will spend on lots of pots to get there, thus deleting duped money from the economy slowly.
5. It's practically a large update considering these items weren't really in the game before now, which is a positive step for eo.
6. The items are lore so not everyone will be able to buy them.
Cons :
1. People who deserved the speciality of having a costume now find they're joined in those ranks by losers and cheaters.
2. People spent considerable amounts of in game and real money on costumes before-hand, now to find they're avaliable in game.
3. It has eliminated several super-rare items (costumes) meaning they're less valueable and other items in the game become less valueable (complicated).
4. Speeders and cheaters will mainly dominate the drops and spawns.
5. Due to these items being lore, they will soon become worthless and stacked up multiple times on accounts.
6. Removes the prestige and achievement from people who had owned them for many years.
So yeh it's totally split, i myself was first sceptical about having them in the game but if i got a turtle i'd sure be happy they are there, so it depends on your position. Olbies with costumes will clearly be hurt by finding themselves worthless now, whereas hard trainers who finally get their long-earnt drop at the apozen overlord will relish the chance to flaunt their sucess so it's completely two-sided and the jury is still out. But what do you think, let me know your side and opinion...
And just as an extra, here's a site i sort of recently found out / decided to take an interest in about the famous internet charcter Strong Bad which i'm sure you've heard about, his e-mail toons are short and sweet with some decent clean humour injected, i personally like the series but i suppose it's down to opinion just like everything is at the moment, if you feel like a good chuckle check out all 200 episodes here.

I think that even if you get a costume from apozen overlord or something,You will have to do alot, but for those who've been loyal and have had these it's not too fair. However, If you didn't even know what Eo stood for a few years ago I don't see why you should suffer like a huge newb/Speeder. I think this all comes about to this: if you came in version 28 and got oron, scav, fires, money, pirate hat, cool stuff, etc. You're still newbish in the eyes of others. Yeah I used myself as an example. But if you're in game for too long and have all this great stuff+devil/panda/Whatever, won't you be called a no life loser?Unless you have friends in powerful positions.

Yeh i agree, there really is no winning with the eo's community, and it all stems from people's jealousy, those which have little will envy those that have a lot, and depending on when they joined, they insult accordingly.
1,2,4 and 6 are the most important on the cons i believe.thats wat it does.i dont think it gives ppl a chance of a costume theyve wanted,it mainly gives cheaters that chance.
