That or he inadvertently gave away future plans to have sellable/purchasable hairstyles. :p

Eh I would like them to revisit.. I know they wont and it is fine I just didnt hit 50 fast enough to get the shirt cause I love snows outfit, so I only got the pants..would love to get the shirt somehow.
I mean if they are going to sell fantasia, I don't see a problem with selling this. It wouldn't be that different from the preorder DLC in Lightning Returns, people got it free for preordering and then people who didn't could buy it for like $3.
Fantasia and limited time events (in this case a one time thing, 2 if you count them bringing it back again for NA launch) are not one in the same. If they decide to do it again though I wouldn't really have an issue with it as I'm already not the biggest XIII fan. That said I'm glad it was available only for those who were there for the occasion, and am also glad they have no plans to do it again, which keeps the rewards special in a way.
I did it twice on two different characters, I now have a 3rd going and would love to have the clothes available to them. I don't really care who else gets it either. My only grief is if I used one of my pots to change from say male to female could I turn in the snow clothes for lightning clothes. So yes, lets see this as a once a year event?
You should still be able to get it as long as you started the event iirc. Forget the name of the npc you can buy it from though. Im sure someone here knows.
Fantasia was originally just a one time special item you got for subscription rewards (or two time if you got one for playing 1.0), but then they decided they were going to sell them.
Hairstyle is a part of your character's base appearance. Having limited gear is fine because it's just gear, but your character is your character.
