No Halloween theme stuff?

It's the weekend of 26th / 27th when Halloween events occur. You may have noticed people dressing up, companies doing stuff....etc. Frontier usually does something as well in the form of a store update. Looks like they missed it this year.

I've noticed a fairly high proportion of chain retailers desperately trying to turn it into a 'holiday' but that's about it. The dressing up used to be confined to the night itself when the American abomination that is 'trick or treating' happens.

(Note - your opinion of this will probably vary depending on whether you live on a nice private housing estate where jolly, well-scrubbed middle class children will be chaperoned around the houses by a couple of parents to pick up sweets, with some mild rascally behaviour being aimed at the local grinch when he doesn't have said confectionery to hand out, or an area like the one I live in where 15 and 16 year old thugs in 50p Scream masks demand money with menaces from pensioners in order to buy weed, with fireworks being thrown through their letterbox if they have the audacity to refuse.)

Frankly I wish we could go back to the innocent fun of celebrating a plot to blow up the government at this time of year :D
 
Actually, around here it's more on weekend to mitigate disruptions from being on a school night. Think a class/school full of overhyped kids from anticipation during the day, and hyped from sugar OD the day following. Instead of a useless and harrowing attempt at educating rugrats for 2 days, it drops the consequences back in the parents laps. (My current neighborhood, I get 1-2 T-or-T ers a year.)
 
What gives? It's nigh All Hallows Eve and I see nary a pumpkin bobble toy nor spooktober themed dash lights or spider webs ready to take my arx bux. How about selling a skeleton "co pilot" in pirate garb dummy I can put in my copilot seat so those long treks to nowhere don't feel so lonely? #SkeletonCrewWanted

Or how about some spooky pennywise clown skins or predalien type looks for my pilot etc etc?

Where's the Halloween shiz?!
With the bug fixes.

Edit: They're put the prices up 1 ARX for ... reasons.

This Flower seems to like the Halloween decorations and Tactical Graphite paint scheme I selected for my Cobra Mk. III, 'Isabella.' I'm glad I made a good impression, because I am not much of a combat pilot.
 
I dug out all the spooky decals and bobble heads from last time. But some fresh ones would have been "nice" (?)

Sorry didn't think to post picture.
