The Hologram 3050 was originally sold as a limited time item. I bought it now it has been offered once before and now a freebie, 25 wins in 3 days for a serious player is nothing. Im at 23 for my play tonight. Yes it was cheap but was offered as limited like the Christmas urbie and others. Shady, that is all.

You do realize that the 3050 hologram is kinda useless as a selling point right? In 6+ months, it has technically no relevance. Same can be said for the Chinese New Year decoration in about ~9 months.

If the hologram changed from 3050 to 3051 on its own, it would actually have some value. It doesn't, so it really has no further value.

No it isn't. See it this way, now you can put it in two mechs

Only that I bought it thinking it was limited. What is stopping the Christmas urbie being back on sale?

I truly hope my happy new year 3050 banner will stay limited but who knows.

It was. First come, first bought. Congrats to you, the early buyer.

Look at it this way, you'll get another one if you have it already.

The Christmas Urbie pretty much would be on sale in 7 months from now. NO WORRIES MAN!

I would say that this would actually affect my cockpit view and would probably not be as useful and would leave me uninterested as a challenge prize. It's pointless to provide a prize that actually HURTS YOU.

My problem is it was advertised as limited, and that was a blatant lie. That is all.

[SweetWarmIce]

Limited yes, but not exclusive.

[shadevarr]

Limited like the McRib sandwich.

[Johnny Reb]

Heh, like I said then every/anything is limited but "might" come back. Then so be it, can't wait for the champagne glasses!

The fact that its not Christmas?

Heck, it probably WILL go on sale again this Christmas...

Well, if I remember right it was a limited time offer. Hence, it was only offered for that time period. I am fine if the other "limited time" items are now offered. Since it wasn't "exclusive time" offer!
