Twitch drop and funko skins should be weavable and purchasable
Not certain whether there are any obstacles to doing so in terms of contracts, but I think all skins of some variant should be weavable. There are some amazing ones which I would love to have, but I am not interested in watching streams for the sake of them or buying a funko I'm not interested to get just to get the skin. I am aware that for the funko ones you can get from the market, but those on their own can cost more than actually getting it in bundle with the figurine, as is the case at the moment with the Tesla Coil skin for the lantern.

If they become weavable then in case of twitch drops, it would become more of a case of you having the choice of watching a stream or pay the spools, so for people who are inclined to watch them will get them for free, while you could spend some spools for the skin if you are not interested. These are loyal skins, so if you weaved one and were unable to unravel, unless you have duplicates of the skin, that would fix the issue. In fact, I would go so far as to say that none of the skins should be possible to unravel unless you have a duplicate of it, just to avoid the possibility of some stupid people unravelling and weaving skins continuously and constantly losing spools over and over, but that's besides the point.

Same case with funko figurines; if you want the figurine, you get the skin to go with it, or if you don't, you just weave it if you can, or at least some variant of the same skin that would be possible to weave. You could also make them possible to purchase from the in-game shop.

P.S Has anyone else also noticed there is no Suggestions sub-forum for DST on Steam? Meanwhile a bunch of sub-forums that aren't being used at all anymore (Trading) or duplicate sections of the same thing (Previous Updates and Events & Announcements).

i mean why not more options are always better but i guess if that happens i think that the spool cost is more then the usual spool cost i guess

Literally the entire point of the Twitch and Funko skins is that they're rare, and NOT everyone is allowed to have them. If you want them, you're going to have to go out of your way to spend the time or money to get them. Sucks for you if you can't afford it.

Probably not because in reality the whole point of the Funkos and Twitch skins are just so that Klei can make more profit. Making them weaveable would limit that. Not to mention that, given how much Funko skins are on the market, would mean for a ton of profit for those with tons of spools to spend.

The point of Loyal skins is to show that the player took time out of their way to go get those skins through various means (or maybe they just idled on Twitch for them). Either way, for the most part, it shows a dedication to the game and the franchise.
