I appreciate it whenever limited-time deals like this resurface for folks who missed out before, and I like that there’s also something here for everyone who did manage to show up last time, during E3. I wonder what crossover item they might whip up next– aGears of Warskull sail? A squirrel pet?

Tie-ins with other Xbox brands seem like a sure bet, but I’d like to formally request a ship theme inspired by the 1963 movieJason and the Argonauts. They already have the skeleton army!
