A few weeks ago, the City of Heroes team announced the upcoming Origins Booster Packs. The new capes and origins were "tentatively" set to arrive in the NCsoft store by November 3rd.
It looks like that date was accurate, because the Origins Booster Packs are available as of today for $9.99 each. Nature, science, technology, magic, and mutant packs are for sale, but if your gaming fund is a little nonexistent at the moment, Massively's got you covered!
We have Origins Booster Packs for 10 lucky Massively readers. It couldn't be easier to win; simply take a peek at our contest rules, then leave a comment here telling us which part of the pack is your favorite. We'll choose 10 winners at random from those who comment before 11:59 p.m. EDT on Friday, November 5th.
But wait, there's more! Those of you who simply cannot wait until the drawing can pass the time by watching our Twitter page this afternoon and evening. Yes, that is a hint.
Good luck!
[UPDATED: All 10 winners have been chosen and emailed. Check those inboxes, and congratulations to the winners!]

My favorite is the Magic pack. The two aura (tarot cards and runes) just fit a couple of my characters to a T.

I like the runes aura a lot. I have a couple characters that will be using that.

My favorite is definitely Science. The atomic aura would fit my mad scientist characters (yes, I have several :p) perfectly!

I'm going with the steam jets aura in the technology origin.

The new capes, across all the origins, are great. Can never have too many capes.

why do we need to pick just one pack. I love them all, as does my wife. :)
Steam jets is pretty pimptastic though

The Science one, definitely. Atomic aura is pretty sweet!

Definitely the Magic set is my favourite!

The steam aura is totally awesome, though all the new capes and auras add to one of my favorite part of the game...playing dress up.

Steam for Tech all the way!
Just so I can imagine burning off faces with the power of STEAM while I scrunch y'alls heads between my fingers as I look at the monitor! :D

Well, since my favorite toon is still my first (Judge Chaos, a technology tanker, and now a vigilante). He'd look too cool in a sparking steampunk suit (which is currently not sparking, but still cool looking), so I'd have to go with the technology origin pack.

Rune Aura! No..no...Atomic Aura! No...Sparks! Steamjet! Oh dear...do I really have to choose?
Oh wait! You didn't say I had to choose a single particular item...so I'll just say 'Auras'! The Capes are indeed fantastic, but I use Auras far more, so I'll get more use out of them. ;)

Got to love the Magic Aura, now my Harry Potter Themed super group will be complete! =P

I like the nature parts! I have an Arthurian style 'modern knight' character who'd look perfect with those things!

Mutant pack has been a long time coming ever since the day I picked an origin.
