Valentine’s Day really is the most romantic time of year, and nothing is finer than receiving a Valentine’s Gift from that special someone — or discovering a new admirer.
With this week’s update to the Lockwood Gift Machine, you’re sure to find the perfect gift: gold and platinum engagement rings, vintage perfume, heart-shaped cushions, and the classic box of chocolates. There is something for every pocket and taste.
Or — if you feel Cupid stirring in your heart — why not try the Cherub Wings with Bow and Arrow, and spread a little love?
With romance also comes passion, for faint hearts ne’r won fair maiden! Lockwood are proud to announce our new Fool Throttle range, for the dashing hero in all of us. And where would a frock-coated hero be without a heroine? The Blackberry Jam and Sugar Plum halter-neck corset dresses should inspire any red-blooded swashbuckler to acts of reckless heroism.
Editor’s notes: We know we sound like drooling Outso fanboys over here at HomeStation, but there’s a reason for this: LOCKWOOD WON’T STOP PRODUCING FANTASTIC STUFF. Just as there was a period of time in the mid-eighties when you couldn’t go anywhere in the United States without seeing Versace, so it is virtually impossible to spend even five minutes in a Home public space without being surrounded by Lockwood awesomeness.
While much of the attention will doubtlessly be on the female clothing — we have a feeling the ankle boots are going to sell like Celtic hardshoes at a feis — those Fool Throttle men’s frock coats are so awesome that Icelandic sagas will one day be written about them. Whether you want to be Captain Hornblower, Captain Blood, Captain Harlock or the Sky Captain, those coats get the job done, gents.
It also doesn’t take Edgar Cayce to realize that the Lockwood Gift Machine should once again rake in a handsome amount of revenue with Valentine’s gift-giving. The gift machine is an excellent example of a long-term (and likely high-margin) revenue source for Outso; with regular updates, and older content periodically phased out, it’s a dynamite formula for making money.

But… I want a frock coat, dammit! Are those really just male items? Gah!
The previous discussion of Les Miserables has me wanting to purchase a frock coat and run around Paris, waving a flag like I’m a character from a Delacroix painting. Does Javert come as a virtual pet that follows you around…?
Will settle for a “Liberty Leading the People” dress. But I doubt Sony would allow it.
I double-dog-dare you to wear that outfit to the staff meeting, Norse! mebbe I should show up as Mme deForge…. except where do you buy a mob cap in Home
you mentioning of Les Miserables now has “Do you hear the people sing…” stuck in my head…
You pick Javert as a companion (Avoid the bridges), I’ll take Gavroshe… though we both know how that ends…
Anywho… definatly gonna be getting one of these coats sooner or later…
The frock coat reminds me of lord horatio nelson,y settle 4 captain when admiral is available?lol.
