Can you buy the nameplate/taunt/mvp animation sepatately?

[Pondering Seeker]

Infamously that costume coin does not get you the other things associated with that skin. So after you redeem that (or just buy the skin with a few less credits) can you then later buy that skin's associated nameplate/taunt/mvp animation with like 200 credits or something? Or are those things permanently locked away from you forever?

Can you ONLY buy "nameplate/taunt/mvp animation"? No
Can you still buy "nameplate/taunt/mvp animation" after you buy skin? Yes (As one bundle not separates)

However the bundle will NOT be 200 blues.

For example I bought mantis skin with F2P grind for 1400 - bundle was 1600

After I bought the skin the bundle price went to 584 blue.
The whole "all Guardians" bundle went to 3748 blues (was 4600)

Wow. You'd think 200 would be simpler but oh well. I wonder what math is going on that turned 200 into 584 and 4,500 into 3,748. Would that number be the same for a more expensive skin like the classic Wolverine?

-2000 Unit skin from a 2200 bundle = 880 Units to complete it.
-2000 Unit skin from a 2400 bundle (Hulk Green Scar) = ??? Didn't find the exact value, but it would be between 880-1080 Units to complete.
---- TLDR: 564 Units most skins, 584 MCU skins, 735 Spider-Man skin. ----

Unless its Peni skin then its 564 just for emote and mvp. Doesnt seem theres much logic behind these prices, but thats "currency bundles" for ya.

Ok so what I'm gathering from this is that from the selection of skins that the game will allow you to use the costume coin to get, nothing that is 2000/2200 or 2000/2400 is available, and the 1400/1800 one seems like a bad deal for that 735 later on. So Ideally the best value for the costume coin would be an MCU skin that's 1600/1800 as the difference between 564 and 584 is pretty negligible. Is that correct or am I missing something?

If you only want "best value" then I suppose thats correct from what I understood as well.
Honestly tho, you should get skin *you want* no matter what value it brings.
Next season will bring even more blues currency from even F2P Pass + whatever event there will be. And there might be some 1400 skin soon you might want over MVP screens.
IIRC they did say that the coin wont "expire" so you can think about it for while.
