What happened to those gear design contests?

Yeah remember those? The Tank/Healer/Magic DPS contests?
It's almost been a full year since they announced the winners of the tank contest and 2 months since the Healer/Magic DPS contests, yet there hasn't been any new information on them at all since announcing the winners. Can we get an update on possible release dates or just more information regarding the contest results in general please?

They had already said that the contest sets will be added as gear sets in Stormblood, so I'm sure they'll be added at some point between now and the last patch of 4.x.

they have to actually create the gearsets, and implement them. iirc, they said it took them a year to make the garo gear, so expect them in 4.1-4.2

They'll probably be added as Tomestones of Creation gear, if not some later iteration of weekly-restricted tomestones, at some point in the 4.x series. Gotta wait until the 18th of July to see.

I hope they come out in 4.1 or 4.2, that's pretty soon!

They showed the tank gear during a community broadcast to hype it up for release soon and I'm certain I saw it tweeted. Maybe Japanese only? Anyway, here are some pictures from a Japanese fan blog: http://blog.livedoor.jp/umadori0726/.../51499629.html
