Just some random idea I came up with five seconds ago: have a Protostar clone vendor NPC placed next to whatever seasonal vendor NPC is available for any given seasonal event and have them sell "Protostar Certified NRG Boxes"  Basically the idea is to sell the boxes for a small amount of seasonal event currency and have it contain one seasonal event item the seasonal event NPC sells, not unlike how you got a loot box from completing certain Halloween events that contained anything from the Jack Shade or Angel costume pieces to one-use visual effect consumables to mount flairs.  It would kinda be one of those much reviled RNG loot boxes other games put in their cash shops, but instead have them only be purchasable only with in-game seasonal currency (i.e. be an RNG loot box done right).  They could even sell different NRG boxes for past events so that even if you, say didn't manage to collect all of the Halloween ground mount and/or hoverboard flair during the event, you can still do so, at the cost of not being able to get all of the Christmas ground mount/hoverboard flair, or something like that.
 
Now, what's with the name "Protostar Certified NRG Box?"  Well, that's part of the joke: NRG is an anagram of RNG and is a homonym of energy.  Basically imagine the Protostar clone vendor NPC reading you this message (brought to you by a grant from Protostar):
"Hello valued potential customer.  Have you been staring at the fancy pair of pants for sale by the seasonal vendor to my left or to my right but can't seem to get enough seasonal currency to buy it?  Maybe you have enough to buy it, but also want that special hat for your insert ground mount here, but don't have enough for both?  Well worry no more, because Protostar has the answer for you!  Introducing Protostar's own Protostar Certified NRG Boxes, patent pending!  Why spend a lot of hard earned seasonal currency on something you want when you can spend a tiny amount of seasonal currency for a chance at getting something you want!  That's right, just give us some money and we will give you a chance to gamble at getting something truly amazing, and if you don't get it, pay us more money and you will get another chance to gamble!  Truly amazing!  What's that you ask, isn't it just an RNG box?  Of course not, it's an NRG box!  It's spelled differently, and it's made by Protostar!  Buy one today and make your dreams come true, possibly, for money!"
 
Probably will never happen, but might as well throw this suggestion out there just in case.

			Don't worry. You'll get all the gambling boxes you could want on the store. For real money of course.

Again, only to mock other games that use them in the cash shop and show them how to properly do them.

You say that like it doesn't happen here. I suggest you look at the store, or in the forums for the numerous threads on the Space Chase RNG boxes.
 
We're really not in a place we want to be chucking rocks, as nice as the view is behind the glass walls.
