BRUHHH $75.00 for this lame costume? i know people would probably buy it for the 75 CP and 15,000 HP, but this bundle is obviously focused on the costume, so why not make it a costume that people would love instead of a reskin FOR THE SAME EXACT COSTUME!

    I'm more surprised about the different pricing. I've known for a while that prices are different on different platforms, but this time the difference is quite astounding. €62,99 on Steam vs €79,99 on Android.

    Android users get free covers every so often tho.

    True, but then again Steam has (one time) DLC, which when bought at a discount is an incredible deal. I got the Nick Fury DLC (30k HP) at 90% discount for €9,29. That compensates for a free cover now and then, i'd say.

    75 bucks is a little much for a micro transaction

    104$ where i'm from. like supports, costumes could have been an enjoyable side gig. but the way (and cost) of acquiring them is totally ridiculous.

    If I were going to spend US$75 on the game anyhow, this would be a pretty good place to do it. Same value in HP/$ as a Stark, plus more than ten times the value in CP, and then the costume is just a cool bonus. But I'm not in a position to spend $75 on anything right now, and probably wouldn't drop that much on a mobile game at all.

    I'd buy if there's a 5* Thor cover in it, just so people like me who don't currently own a 5* Thor can actually get to use the costume that we're buying.

    It's AU$115 here on Android, which is about US$82.  Seems like a reasonable price to remove his hat.

    I don't really see a consensus about the deal, so I don't know why you said "y'all"...

    Also, why did this need to be a separate thread?

    People will pay stupid amounts for hats in Valve's Team Fortress 2.  Paying stupid amounts for the absence of a hat seems like a logical progression.

    I've got him champed, and I'd still expect at least one of his covers for that amount.

    Cost AU$120 for iTunes,  
    i just bought 2 Nintendo switch games with around that price instead of the costume.

    Seeing the Thor bundle - $75 for 75 CP - made the Carnage bundle suddenly look fantastic. It took my Carnage to 320 so I got 3 LT pulls for 29.99, and double dipped the Ock coming.  

    Anchoring at work.  Look it up if you’re not familiar with economic ideas around pricing.

    Well played....or accidental genius.

    Hmmm. Looks like the offer has been removed early?

    Maybe they got their dates mixed up and thought it was 1st April?

    Still there for me. Only 48 hours left to buy the worst deal this side of supports.
