This is my last reply and I'm done with this back and forth lol..I'm still confused.
Retro 7s have nothing to do with all new retro costumes? and to Poodlestrike's point, new retro 7 colours are WAY easier to make than all new costumes, so they arent the same.
Again, I'm not saying they're the same, I'm saying one new feature appears (to me at least) to be there to soften the blow of not getting another, if Season 1 retros are also getting a color 7 (which I would assume they are).
Of course new colors are easier to make then all new retros...that's the point...we are getting an easily executed feature to supplant a more substantial/time consuming (and requested) one, most likely because they don't have the time or resources..hopefully not out of laziness.
