Variant plants

Each playable character class has six variants or more that give the base class a perk. The variants also differ slightly in appearance. Unlocking the variants is done through purchasing sticker packs from the Sticker Shop. Lower cost packs will result in single pieces being obtained randomly, more expensive ones will yield multiple pieces for different characters while the most expensive sticker pack will fully unlock a random new variant.
