Now I know what you're thinking: 'Blaze we don't care.'
But... Eh.
So have you seen the dark, boring, but kinda cool costumes that some of the NPC Knights wear?
I like how some of them look. Especially the Brigandine. So... What if there where [Something] Prize Boxes that you could buy for about 10k Crowns for the Costumes and Accessories! :D
I'm using crowns because of the genericness of the costumes.
Examples of NPCs with these on right of the names.

And why not also make Spiral Green and Spiral Red boxes too? Limited examples on these...

Spiral Red Plate Helm: http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Brinks
Spiral Red Round Glasses: http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Kora
@Inquisitive-Ego - Hmm... Then maybe the price could be 100CE or 200CE.
(I dunno about 200.)
@Vanaduke-Destroyer - Okay. Red and Green are possible. Possibly.
I mean yeah, I'd dig it. Having a sort of "uniform" would be great.
I would say to give them names like "Spiral". Recon rangers are called "dangerous", scarlet scouts "hazardous". Green can be "biotic", as we see many of those in the lab.
I would say that these boxes could be achieved various ways. Spiral boxes could be bought with a small sum of crowns after every X prestige is reached. Biotic could be purchased via energy from the supply depot for every X prestige earned. If we get a red reskin based on Brinks, I would say we could trade high amounts of various tokens for a box (I'd say something like 300 tokens for one box, and these are just the primal/grim/forge sparks).
However, NPC's respective items that are unique makes them stand out. They would be more special as the undressable NPCs rather than ones where you can just dress up as
If I'm not mistaken, pretty much all of the NPC knights have costumes that you can replicate. For example, one of the links you posted for the knight Hahn, who you said was "kinda cool". In the "appearance" section of the page, the items are almost identical to what Hahn is wearing (aside from the color, but you could probably find something close).
It's not new equipment, it's a new armor color theme he wants.
Maybe each box could have some special costume in it?
Blue could have Bosco's stranger hat (alchemy symbol included), and green could have Morlin's helmet. Not sure about red...
Doesn't make OOO any (real) money, probably won't be popular (we see it every day, and its not amazing to start with). *puts needle away and wipes soap off of armor*
