These two kits were announced today. Let's discuss them. Predictions, issue, ideas, interests, or lack of interests.Does the Incheon Arrivals Kit really only have 3 items? Does the Fashion Street Kit, which I already have the bad habit of calling the Mumbai Kit, really only have 2 items? The announcements combined with the announcement's title images indicate that the Incheon Kit has at least 4 clothes and the Fashion Street Kit has at least 6 clothes and multiple jewelry pieces. What are your thoughts? In the end I am very curious. I was hoping to find out if there will be more items or if that information is not yet public. The announcements for those Kits were made today. Honestly, the description listed on Origin for the Incheon Arrivals Kit made me excited for airports, but I doubt they will add another big ticket item to the list of releasable content for the Sims 4.What do people from those countries think? Are they insulted by the fact that they only get small kits while Japan and England got complete expansion packs, or is this really not that big of a deal? I hope they have a decent number of items.

The kits contents have already been discovered, and both packs have way more items than listed in the blog post. https://twitter.com/TheSimCommunity/status/1440413856069668872Not that I expected them to only have a few items. The only Kit that has less than 10 items is the Bust the Dust kit, and that one has an entire gameplay system with it, so I'm willing to give it a pass on only a few items. Everything else has had a respectable number of assets.

Well, there's two new outfits in the base today that's related to the two new kits coming up.

I wasn't impressed by the kit cover art (really hope they go back to proper 3d model covers for those), but after I got a look at the assets I'm really loving the Fashion Street kit.One of my biggest complaints about Throwback is that all it had was clothes when CAS has so much more to offer, and Fashion Street has some really nice accessories (plus an outfit I'd want even as a singular item and lots of nice color pieces). So I'm definitely grabbing that one.Incheon Arrival... The clothes look comfy and to some degree like stuff I actually wear, but muted and dull colors irritate my retinas like garish colors do to others'. Especially off whites. I despise ivory, cream, eggshell, etc. and pretty well every hue of brown. So I'm kind of torn here, even if the clothes would match some of my more homely Sims. I don't know. Maybe I'll grab it since I like Fashion Street so much.

South Asian here. Nothing offensive to see here. I'm quite excited for both. The South Asian kit seems to have captured the beauty of our fashion. Though not nearly enough jewelry or variety. We have hand made saris,lenghas,salwar kameezes etc. That goes on For years and years and still you will never see the end of it. Because they are constantly making new ones daily! If anyone has seen an older bollywood move that's a good example. Though I'm from Sri lanka we share the same fashion and culture with most of South Asian with minor differences.But this is a kit afterall. So can't expect much. If you just walk into our bracelet store the entire store will be covered in bracelets of all size, shape, color, and sparkle you can imagine. South Asia is a fashion heaven. The henna was a nice addition. I love henna!! I should start doing my own again....I am not offended it's just a kit. I couldn't care less about culture representation. Honestly just want a fun engaging game and wouldn't care if I never saw anything related to me. Give me adventure, drama, lore, challenge, consequences, and zombies. I'll be happy.But since this is here it's nice to have. ? and since I enjoy CAS I'll have fun making some South Asian families and maybe a simself too. I even changed my avatar to show off some of the fashion ?The Korean kit is fun too! I have Korean friends and I'm a big fan of the country/culture and people. Korean fashion is the total opposite of South Asia but it's really nice in a different way! I have quite a few Korean outfits and my brother has these super fashionable Korean clothes I brought for his birthday. He gets so many compliments on it.I don't think this kit has captured the "best" of K fashion but it's really nice stuff and I have a lot of East Asian sims so this is perfect. In general they do tend to wear muted colors a lot in Korea. Would we nice to get a b/b CAS to go along with these. Always wanted to make a South Asian house but even with cc couldn't find much.

When I first heard about it, I got excited. I was hoping it would be something that allows the Sims to have a career in modeling And add onto the moschino. Maybe add some realistic poses (for us console users) Magazine covers, ads etc. Then I realized it was just another stuff pack and I lost all interest.

While I like these kits I think I'd like it more of these kind of themes were explored in bigger packs. I don't want to see multiculturalism being religated to the realm of kits (which honestly a lot of people don't buy).

Those dresses are so lovely, especially the second one. Love the hair piece from the first picture. I would've bought the pack for those, however neither pack has any major draws for me. At least one lovely dress like these and perhaps some small extra would've been nice. No kid pieces. Perhaps a kid toy. Both are a pass for me. Will pick them up later in a bundle of some sort or cheaply.

I'm really not impressed with these kits. All we're getting is new clothes and some new jelwelry. Now I would have been impressed had we got more tattoos and peircings. What we really need is a Sleepwear Kit if thier going to keep doing CAS Kits. Sleepwear is badly lacking in TS4.

I'm not sure how I feel about paying for cultural fashion. Yes we got a few free items in the update which is great but the paying side for culture and maybe CAS kits in general are off to me

They both look like interesting kits and I would probably buy them. Im all for anything that gives you more choice and means you can represent more cultures.
Im curious about the 3rd global cas kit they mentioned too. Im hoping for something African inspired which would hopefully give you some lovely new colourful outfits and hairstyles.

Out of the two kits announced, I really like the Incheon Arrivals the most. I love the neutral tone colors, the comfy and casual style, and I also love how versatile it can be for everyday wear. The Fashion Street kit is very beautiful as well, but the Incheon Arrivals is more of the style I prefer.
