Pre-order purchase and buying "future" pre-order cosmetics.

ArchivedUser

Hello all!
The old man and I will likely be buying each other the Voyager pack for xmas this year, and I've got a couple questions about the purchase of cosmetics from "future" pre-order packs.
So from what I can see, there are tabs on the store site that are for the individual cosmetic items, but to me those tabs are all blank.
Do they start to populate with items after you become a pre-order member and the newer packs release?
What kind of prices do those individual item skins carry? If I wanted to buy say, December's boat skin, is that going to be like $5 or more like $25?
Is there any way to buy the pack now and reserve my skin pack selection for a future set? I would like to give my monetary support now (or soon anyway) but I'm not sure I'm in love with this month's skin set.
Thanks!

So here is how that all works. Once you purchase a package you can but the cosmetics from future packs at the tier you bought at or lower. So if you buy the $75 dollar package you can buy the $5 trinket that they put out each time. If you buy the $375 package you get access to all of them. They vary in price in $5 increments and range between $25-$5 individually. They will appear the month after your initial pack purchase, and you will only be able to see those that you qualify for. Hope this helps, it is a bit confusing initially.

OK cool, that's how I assumed it worked but wanted to make sure.
Guess we will wait for the December pack and I can just hold out hope that it's like a northern / winter / cold climate type pack and has viking looking stuff LOL
I just don't want to get stuck with a christmas themed reindeer mount or something silly like a santa's sleigh boat skin.  ><

Honestly I doubt you will, last year we had the necromancer stuff but that lasted for a few months, around 3 I think so my guess is either another race themed package or something winter-y like the vikings you suggested.

It has been clarified that holidays will not match Earth ones exactly. This months offer while "dark" was not Halloween themed. Next months very well could have a winter motif, but will not be what Americans consider "Christmas-themed."

I'd love runes, leathers and furs, a raven/crow pet, a longship, and a giant wolf mount   

My dream list is long... LOL
