That was before they saw that they can simply add these things to the cash shop and people will throw money at them. I'm pretty sure that most of those Mog Station items that get so frequently added as of late would've ended up as (the now gone) Veteran Rewards otherwise, but money is money. The achievement vendor gives me the feeling of being there just to "hide" that the veteran program ever existed, and it's pretty obvious that they don't give a damn about it seeing how often it's updated, and with what.

Magitek claw was 4.3(i think i know it was SB) very recent
So clearly at a time they could add it to mogstation.

Just one of the few bones that they threw at us to justify the change and not make it look so obvious. On the long run you can't compare it to what the veteran rewards offered, at all.

I'll even expand more on this. Not only did they see that people will throw money at the Mog Station without second thoughts, but they also noticed that they can entice people to stay subbed with the housing demolition timer instead of offering rewards (penalty vs reward, both are ways to keep someone paying). That's why I don't expect housing to ever be fixed other than getting a few new shards here and there. Why "waste" money in giving customers gifts to build customer fidelity when you can make them stay subbed while not investing money in actually improving one of the most controversial systems, and just sell those goodies that you were giving them before? It looks like a win-win situation to me, and something that any company would do (when allowed by their customers) in order to maximize profits. It's the same reason as of why the inventory "limitations" can magically disappear if you pay more, in a model even worse than what F2P games do (additional sub vs a single purchase).

Anyway, this is getting a bit off-topic at this point, so I'll stop here. But yeah, I also think that it will be a Mog Station item.
