Sure buying mod calibrators to sell is a plausible idea but I feel like there needs to be a bigger sink for these coins.

Lockdown Costumes
As I've seen the idea floating around a few times before, why not introduce the Lockdown Class' equipment as costumes that can be bought from Sullivan?

They could all copy the themes of the bombheads - Starry / Iron / Shocking / Scary etc.

Flags being the obvious.
Recon packs general colour / style could be different.
Striker boosters' jets could be different colours based on the variant. (Obviously just the stream behind the jet as you move)
______________________________________________________________________________
Here's a quick picture of the basic types of flag.
Azure / Emerald / Golden / Onyx / Ruby / Silver. (Colours taken from parts of the bombheads).

Rare Bombheads
The rarer bombheads (not acquirable from Sullivan) could be purchased with extortionate amounts of Krogmo Coins / crafted with mats + energy + coins.

E.g Fiery Bombhead = 25 Blaze Peppers + 500CE + 1000 Krogmo Coins (Obviously haven't thought the idea through on costs, just clarifying that it wouldn't be an easy feat so those who won theirs through working as a team in Lockdown wouldn't feel cheated)

Far too often teams are unbalanced making it even more frustrating when the prizes are bombheads.

Obviously these are just initial ideas so if you shoot them down or think differently about it I won't be disheartened haha.

Nice idea so far :D We need other things to buy with krogmo coins.

I have about 1000 Krogmo coins already. But there is none that could I buy. :(

We definitely need lockdown worth playing again.
But about those lockdown accessories, which slot should they occupy?

i like the idead of LD

i like the idead of LD accessories. which would be hidden while in LD. Maybe have the LD accessories actually be costumes? Seems those would be easier to hide but on the down side, you couldn't see your own gear.

We could get some Kromo Lockbox as well. This could give us something to spend out coins on.

@Aplauses Haha yeah, I've stocked up well over 5k atm and as pretty as they are I'd like to sink em!

@Metrulizer I think the Guardian flag / Recon pack would be back slots and the Striker jet would be rear? Iunno haha. Aye I agree, cus then if there were separate rewards for Lockdown, it'll bring back Blast Network players too because I'm sure people still want bombheads.

@Lil-Toula Yeah that could work, I guess then they'd have to come up with a neutral armor design for the equipment to be on since I'm sure many players wouldnt want it if it was on the generic armors that the majority of people use for those classes.

DEAD BUNNY!!!

Love this. I thought about the idea of Lockdown costumes/accesories too. In fact, how about they are costumes, but they can only appear in LD bribes. Bombheads could only appear in BN bribes, to bring back more people for BN. Or, of course, we could purchase them, as you said. Perhaps we could make it so that you could buy Blue and Yello ones from Sullivan, and have rare Red and Green ones (I dunno, I just thought of those colors since they are the LD team colros). But, no, I think they should be costumes, like the bombheads, because costumes dissapear during LD, so it wouldn't be confusing.

So, yeah, this would be nice. It would look cool, and, I need to spend my coins on more stuff. I already bought all the masks and a crapload of rocks and calibrators.

gotta have some reason to keep gathering those krogmo coins - this is by far the best use of them since fashion knights is all about looking good - seriously though good ideas

I love this idea. Lockdown

I love this idea. Lockdown should be worth playing more than just 2 krogmo coins. THeres should be like 5 for the winning team and 1 - 2 for all players. I mean, it takes a VERY long time to get krogmo coins. I have 141 (Currently) Krogmo coins. I love this idea :)

I might just suffer through even more LD, just for this.

Added a picture of the more common flag / changed it to costumes instead of accessories.
