i think kf should have a menue option where you can select which type of specimen skins you wanna play. during a seasonal event like xmas, the game would select the "xmas" specimen als default, but one could switch back to "classic" if he/she doesn't like it (and i know lots of people do that). and the game needs specimen skin packs dlc you can select in the menue as well. like the character skins it would be something players don't need to buy, but it would spicen up the game a lot. like undead war zeds, cenobyte zeds, zed police force, hillbilly zeds, glowing zed skeletons and much much more.

that's controlled server-side, as each event has different models with different hitboxes.

It is possible to modify the specimen models for a server. I don't know if TWI would take kindly to lifting the event spec models and making a mutator for it though. If you read up on mutators you could make it yourself. Don't expect TWI to as they have already stated that the event specimen stay in their events only.

I've already seen christmas zeds in some RPG server outside xmas

Can't explain how retarded it was (The RPG mod, not the zeds)

@ lacedaemonius : i see. so additional skins would have to be more of a modders thing and nothing that is most likely to expect from tripwire themselves. thanks for the info.

@ splatpope & akame : not talking about the skins we already have here, cause i wouldn't want to play christmas zeds all year (since i find the reindeer crawler annyoing as hell. there is something about a monster with bells jumping and biting at you that i just dislike more than any other permanent or seasonal specimen) and there is also a mutator for that already.

@ janek : there is no need indeed ... for comments like yours which add absolutely nothing to the subject other than pointing out your personal lack of interest on the matter which is something i have a personal lack of interest in.

More or less. To be completely clear the way the game is now the server sets which specimens are used (the holiday models are actually separate specimens) and that's what the clients all see. Simply put, your idea is impossible the way the game is currently implemented.
