EDIT: The 'Exile' AR, 'Toxin' SMG and 'Daemon' Shotgun are standard weapon BPOs available with various packs.

Basically standard BPOs are not without precedent, and Amarr is completely unrepresented, so the BPOs in the collectors edition are not totally insane.

Totally insane in volume I think. To get all the other BPOs requires, what? Three marketplace purchases (not sure of the cash equivalent, but they're.. 11800 Aurum a piece.. or something like that? The Exile is in the starter pack, that's $10, the Toxin is in the Merc, that's $20, the Syndicate is in the Gamestop Merc which is also $20, Dragonfly is in any Merc pack, and the Daemon wasn't released stateside that I'm aware of.

This is two standard light weapon BPOs (laser/scrambler), one sidearm standard BPO (scrambler), 1 standard heavy suit BPO (doesn't exist otherwise), 1 logistics & 1 assault standard BPO, and a droplink BPO (only standard equipment BPO that exists). That's a pretty crazy amount of stuff in one place (and it would be nice to have a less exorbitant price option to get the stuff).

During fanfest CCP announced an EVE collectors addition, it costs 150$ and comes with a variety of different things. Some of this stuff is unique dropsuit and weapon BPO's that I would REALLY like to have, but theres also a TON of eve stuff that would be almost useless to me. So what I proposed is that CCP makes a "Dust 514 collectors pack" or something like this. It would cost 50$ and would give us the fancy amarr stuff in the EVE collectors pack, plus maybe the golden LAV you can only get by getting a PS super slim. This to me is a great way for them to make extra money without having to do much at all (aside from putting it up on the PS store). AND it would save me the 100 extra dollars because I wouldn't be getting the eve related items. I mean.... im a dust merc so why would I want 5 bpo's for a ship that i'll never fly? or a book going over the lore of eve? things like that which really don't have a big connection to me. What do you guys think? good idea? or bad idea? im looking to get some support for this idea because as more people agree with it, the bigger the chance CCP will make it happen.

Or for CCP to make some more money. That's the argument im basing this on ^^^^ why wouldn't they put something like this up for sale??? they know people would buy it, and it would/ should be easy to set up. This would be an opportunity to give us dust players a bunch of stuff that we have been unable to get before hand. I mean come on now..... I want a BPO laser rifle!!!!

IDK about you guys but id sure be willing to pay 50$ if they slap on the golden LAV BPO and maybe 10k AUR, something like that would be SWEET!

Its going to be expensive and as such only a few people are going to grab it. The items available in the pack suggested above would be worth it in my opinion. Not to mention that this is a business.... and well.... businesses are supposed to make money

Sadly, they don't ship to Israel. Giving me a digital option to get the specific items I want sounds perfect. LOL yet another reason to make this a thing!!! support everyone support!!!

And not just for "collector items". The LR, AR, and pistol are all standard Dust gear that should also be available in the market and not JUST available in some rare, expensive collection set. The EVE ship counter parts are all limited run BPCs, the dust items should be too. Sadly everything's pretty set and there's no turning back now. Anyways, I'd love to see a Dust collector's set. The one problem is that if we do get our own Dust set, the EVE players with no interest in Dust will want their own EVE only set without any of the Dust stuff. And if we got our own set it's hard to deny the EVE players theirs. Then the whole spirit of the 10 year set is ruined and the whole world falls to pieces. they get there own damn set, its that mega set that gives them exclusive skins and BPC's.....
