It's that special time of year, when 14 stickers are added to our sticker books that we must try to collect.
For newbies, chomper is highly encouraged for these key quests, as they often involve f...

Is it possible you got them all last year? From what I know there are 112 customizations (8 per class). I'm hoping that is not the case because that will take around 2,225,000 at 2 per pack to get them all. (And people thought RUX was bad.) I plan to make a checklist from Germanshu's video and buy 2016 packs until I stop getting customizations. So far though, I have purchased 20 packs and am still getting things.
Sometimes when you open the chest it appears you got nothing but you still got it. The 'last opened pack' button in the sticker shop was added so you could check on this since this came up often for these events. Check before buying any packs at the store of course.
I too fully recommend to use a Chomper just like @pandareno1999 does since you can insta-vanquish the champion when there is one.
I got the eggnog goggles for the Citron last night. :D
Alright, I'm back. I finished my checklist and have some information that people may find helpful.
First, there is indeed 8 customizations per class. Additionally, unless I missed something it seems every class has 2 of each type of customization. For example, each zombie class has x2 Hats, x2 Accessories, x2 Facial Hair and x2 Tattoos. Finally, it seems there is a complete set for both 2016 and 2017. In other words you should get one of each per year. For example, in 2016 All Star got - Nutcracker (Hat), Garland Goggles (Accessory), White Beard (Facial Hair) and Brown and Green (Tattoo). The same is true for plants with hats, accessories, organics and tattoos. This makes it easy to check your progress. They also seem to appear just before FLF stickers but after TiZ.
Next, since there is 4 customizations per class in 2016, this means there are 56 from last year. Each Festivus 2016 pack gives 2 customizations and 3 consumable plants or zombies. (For the record there are 6 varieties of consumable, 3 plant and 3 zombies.) At 2 per pack everyone is looking at 28 packs for a complete set if they missed last year. At 40k a piece the total price tag is 1,120,000. (Ouch!) At least there is the whole duration of the event to collect those coins, unlike a 4 day RUX weekend.
This leads to my next point/inquiry. With 56 customizations for this year it seems even at 2 per day there will not be enough time to get everything during the event. (The snowman resets every 12 hours exactly, for anyone who didn't know. I personally tested this.) So, I expect we will need to pay for the left over customizations via sticker pack. (Unlike Halloween)
*Opinion time* I find this somewhat unfair. Don't get me wrong I like the fact there are a lot of festive customizations, nearly 4 times what Halloween had. But, the fact that there is no choice but to spend coins on the event feels a little sleezy. "Buy our winter packs and get free coins to use on the event..." I don't know, it feels less like a gift and more of a carrot to me. Here's some limited edition stuff (even rarer than RUX technically) better play a lot (during the busy holiday season) or spend real money to get it all before it is gone. Again, seems like a push for microtransactions to me. Add to that the large price tag on last year's items (multiplied by the large quantity) and it is quite a commitment for anyone without a coin reserve.
I don't know, feels like it might have been better to either reduce the snowman's cool down to 6 hours or place one per faction allowing for twice as many per day. (Obviously a snowman per faction would be easier on the player but both options get the job done.) The way it is now feels intentionally burdensome on the players. (That said, admittedly it is worst for players who weren't around last year. It is much easier for returning players.)
In any case, good luck everyone. I think I got most of the important stuff but if I find any other valuable information I will be sure to post it.
@Final_Zidane in response to your post higher up, when you have all the items he gives you a consumables pack.
I want to add that if I'm not mistaken, "special" items do not enter your sticker book until you've gotten them. When you get one, your total number of stickers goes up by one in the sticker book. So these events do not add items that we must have to fill the sticker book. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
