Should items previously tied to physical purchases become available in-game again?

[Stormfur]

This topic came up in the catacombs of the PVP forum, and since few people ever go there, I thought it would make a good topic for General Discussion to see what the larger community thinks.

Previously, there were exclusive items that were tied to purchases made outside of the game. Many of these things aren't available anymore or their codes have expired.

For those that were late to the party, what do you say to them -- tough luck? Or would you like the opportunity for players to be able to get them in-game again?

(For the purpose of this discussion, I won't say make them available on Mog Station because that's a whole other can of worms I don't want to open).

Examples include:
- The Goobue, tattoo and Chocobo barding from 1.0 (a 2.0 pre-order? I don't know)
- The carbuncle plushes
- The mail moogle
- The Odin Zantetsuken emote
(and in time, things like the Shiva emote, Nidhogg minion, Hraesvelgr minion)

If you do think they should be purchasable in-game, how would you make them attainable? Through achievement points? Tied to achievements themselves?

If you don't think they should be purchasable in-game, why do you feel that way? I'm genuinely curious.

Let's hear it!
