FAQ: Q: Will the same two people in a game be able to have the same skins? For example what if I join my friend’s world as Tennis Steve and he has Tennis Steve on too. A: Yes, we won’t change your skin choice just because someone else has the same one. Q: Are there even more skins coming in the future? A: Yes, but we’re not saying which at this time. We’re not even telling you all 40 skins in this pack at this time! Q: Am I now forgiven for my terrible joke? A: Of course, all of my jokes are amazing and awesome, my Mom just said so.
piston's story is funny, everything started with a mod that included white and gold pistons(sticky), it was so popular that they added pistons in original game lol
I have the strangest feeling that this is going to go over just like it did with Gears. I remember how hyped people were getting over the weapon skins, hoping they were going to be around 240 MSP. Then release day came and the complete collection was like 4000 MSP. lol
Either way, we're going to be getting some free skins out of the trial versions. So if you're going to look forward to anything, look forward to those.
No. They are going to release a trial version of the skin pack so you can see the skins before you buy it. The trial will include useable versions of some of the skins.
Just be aware that if Microsoft rejects the update (if there was a bug or not) we may have a longer wait. I hope not, but until 4j says it passes is when I'll get excited for it.

Unless it's like a creeper skin toy thing...
Jungle Biomes to my Knowledge where not added until 1.2.5. 1.7.3, 1.8.2, 1.0.0 has to come before that.
That's in release 1.2
So they're a bit away for us.
Either way, we're going to be getting some free skins out of the trial versions. So if you're going to look forward to anything, look forward to those.

Me too. 3minutes after the initial 4J tweet w/the link and everything. I think the moderators like to play favorites tbh. kinda getting sick of it
updates are free. however, the downloadable skins will cost microsoft points.
