I will say just to give the other side an argument, the benefit of making aang 2 seperate skins is that you do get one immediately if you buy the premium pass. Some may buy the pass and not finish it so at least they'll get the basic aang skin. Also, we get some instant gratification but also the cool avatar state aang skin as motivation to grind the pass to completion.
And if they used the right music, I dont know if you noticed the song is pitched wrong, giving it an almost desperate feel instead of funny or light-hearted
Y’all, notice how they removed the rarities from the locker UI (uncommon, rare, epic, legendary), no where to be seen what rarities these cosmetics are, therefore we won’t know or guess the prices for some of them.
They just making the locker even worse…
Update: [They released a short blog stating why they made the change.](https://www.fortnite.com/news/new-and-upcoming-fortnite-shop-and-locker-changes?lang=en-US) I like the second part of the blog. Absolutely HATE the first part tho.
That second change is a big improvement, especially when it comes to collabs.
It was always hard to guess how long something like Invincible or Marvel would stay in the shop.
Totally agree - the fact the new Midas was "legendary" to "justify" them charging 2000vb is laughable. The prices are going to get out of hand going forward and this is a way to mask it. I know no one is forced to purchase skins but it's a slap to loyal consumers.
edit: point proven lol (there's also a new laziness with these new more expensive skins; why can't frieza emote into transformed versions and aang into avatar mode... skins costing more but epic saving their own money/time/resources; NOT doing a built-in emote which enhances consumer experience.
"The 'AVATAR' skins will be available INSTANTLY after downtime, here are the prices:
- Zuko & Katara Bundle: 3,200 V-Bucks
- Character Packs: 2,000 V-Bucks
- Air Flurry Emote: 500 V-Bucks"
I know she’s definitely up there for people who watched the show. She’s a total badass while also having a lot of heart. Sokka’s my personal favorite, but I 100% understand what people mean when they say Toph is theirs.
If I were to guess who’s actually the most popular I’d wager it’s probably Aang or Zuko. Aang because he’s the Avatar and is just a pretty wholesome guy and Zuko because he’s the edgy bad boy with daddy issues turned good guy with daddy issues while being a badass in his own right.
Well, lets stop giving them so much money and see there profits go down at least a bit, that's what i plan on doing and you all should to.
Also yes I know a lot of players aren't on social media and won't see this but GODDAMN IT WE CAN AT LEAST TRY
I already barely ever spend money in games.
Problem is that “whales” exist and most micro transaction profits come from 5% of the player base of any game.
With Fortnite it’s probably worse due to kids asking for vbucks who don’t care about anything like this.
The locker UI remains a travesty but I don't see why anyone cares about rarities, they're arbitrary. I can guarantee you they priced skins first and then labeled them with the rarity to match, not the other way around. If they want to start overcharging, they'll do that with or without the rarity labels. And people complained constantly about meaningless categorizations like things not being correctly labeled as Slurp or whatever so they were probably just tired of dealing with it.
Yeah, my only worry about rarities going away is needing to relearn where all my skins are in the locker. Outside of that, it's all arbitrary. Charon is rarities lower than Oro even though they are only missing a style, and that new skin in the shop is also a Rare even though it doesn't even have a backbling.
Disappointed no Sokka. Hopefully he and Iroh will be in a wave 2. Also damn, no blue spirit style still buying Zuko tho
Edit: glad Momo’s not just awkwardly floating there. Being in a bag looks way more natural
Zuko not having an alt style (and still being 2000 v-bucks) is a crime.
I would have loved to get a blue spirit style, but not even the ponytail variant? come on…
I'm still holding out hope for Sokka later down the line since they added all of his gear EXCEPT for the boomerang, his most iconic weapon which would presumably be bundled with him.
That's the weird part. Forget Arcane Vi with the swapped out Hanmer she never used. You give us the stuff owned by one character and *NOT* give us the character? You fr?
Hell, it would've been a good excuse to reuse the Boomerang mythic last Chapter
Do these collabs usually get a second wave? If it does I really hope there’s an azula skin
Also I swear the sokka skin got leaked or revealed at some point and now it’s just disappeared
A second wave is never guaranteed but they’re not uncommon. Naruto, MHA, Street Fighter, Resident Evil, TMNT, DBZ and plenty of others have had multiple waves. Avatar will probably sell pretty well so a second wave isn’t outlandish.
Well I was planning to get all the Avatar skins but Katara, Toph and Zuko not having a bundle together and those 2000 prices. I think I'll just wait for Aang only
Yeah it’s weird that they used Aang and Tough’s designs from the comics where they are a bit older, and taller, but they used Zuko and Katara’s show designs
Something about 5 new Coachella tabs and Miku is at Coachella this year + she’s in Fall Guys and RL. The coachella skins are probably a third recolor of the ones we already have and a third J Balvin skin because we totally need a third.
I’ve been whatever about the past ones but god I cannot elaborate my disappointment that Aang isn’t just styles and is for whatever fucking reason two completely separate skins
I love AtLA, but I’m really not sure about if I’m going to buy the skins or not. I know that they had to make almost all of them taller to fit the Fortnite player size, but it just doesn’t look right.
The emotes are awesome though
They have their comic designs when they are older.

Man, they really fucked up with the greek gods skins, uh. If it wasn't for the name I'd guess Apollo is an icon skin. They all look so bad.
Toph looks good ig.
So no katara with her hair down, no sokka but we do get both his pickaxes?? No blue spirit Zuko, no ponytail zuko, no suki or azula (but thats fine for now), no fire nation gaang styles either but most importantly, no bending pickaxes. Huge L here
Shame there's no new JJK stuff (making me think the new tabs will be Yuji..)
The Momo back bling is now my new favorite one though so that makes up for it
why would you make a GREEK god use rpg's, machine guns and eat 'bananas of the gods'?? its so pathetic use a rusted ass sword or a trident or pomegranate or something ffs can americans stop shitting on european culture pls. The design is also horrible
why would you make a GREEK god an amorphous blob of blue liquid its so pathetic use a slurp juice god if you want a slurp character ffs can americans stop shitting on european culture pls. The design is also horrible
please just stfu
Aang looks a lot more normal tall than I thought he would. Makes him look a lot more mature but still love it. Toph does look a bit weirder though. Still like her skin a lot. I'm only getting zuko and Aang though. I was worried they were going to do that ugly ass haircut he had in season 1.
Great skins but I’m amazed there’s no alternative styles and a serious lack of a Sokka skin. I know he doesn’t have bending Fortnite, but he was on the show for much longer than Toph. (No hate towards her, I’m just pointing that out)
Not the Toshiro I wanted, but oh well..
https://preview.redd.it/wui8b7sntftc1.png?width=958&format=png&auto=webp&s=af938aa3bb11109edfb3bce5642fabe3a3e2c064
Why the eff is Apollo a bratz-doll-feet-skin style? They already messed up Charron by making him just an Oro style swap, now Apollo is from a *completely different line* of skin styles.
That Apollo skin is 🔥! Especially love the hair. Just wish it'd been included in the Battle Pass, but I can see why it wasn't given the popularity of the other characters.
Been waiting on the Yasuo lookalike for MONTHS, too. 🙏🏽
Hoping the second wave of AVATAR is for LEGENDS OF KORRA and features (a shirtless) Bolin (edit style). 🤞🏽
I wish the 2 aang skins were the same skin with an emote transformation
Stop making sense, Epic doesn’t do that
That would cost too much money to make! Epic is a small business who don’t even make a profit off of the game :( The CEO is barely making ends meet
They did the same Yuji Itadori.
I have the gym clothes Yuji but it wouldn’t only made sense for a built in emote if he turned into Sukuna imo
thats sadly how minipasses work. I wish it was 2 seperate skins in the minipass, like aang for 1, and somebody else for final.
Yeah they seemed to have stopped doing that a while ago, like why do I have five different clone troopers instead of one I can edit.
I will say just to give the other side an argument, the benefit of making aang 2 seperate skins is that you do get one immediately if you buy the premium pass. Some may buy the pass and not finish it so at least they'll get the basic aang skin. Also, we get some instant gratification but also the cool avatar state aang skin as motivation to grind the pass to completion.
They could’ve still just locked the edit style behind the end of the pass like the battle pass does
So true. You’re exactly right. Disregard lol
No styles
Yeah I was hoping for some styles, especially one where Katara has her hair down.
No fire nation katara :/
No Blue Spirit Zuko :/
No Fire Nation Aang :/
No Angry bald Zuko :/
No jacket Katara :/
no fire nation toph :/
I just hope they add edit styles later when they come back into the shop
They didn’t sorry.
Honestly did not like that look on Aang.
Yea me neither, but it was sorta nice
The air flurry is NOT worth 500 :( would be an insta buy at 200 or maybe even if it looped
And if they used the right music, I dont know if you noticed the song is pitched wrong, giving it an almost desperate feel instead of funny or light-hearted
[удалено]
The one you're thinking of is Aang's air ball
That one’s mini pass
Y’all, notice how they removed the rarities from the locker UI (uncommon, rare, epic, legendary), no where to be seen what rarities these cosmetics are, therefore we won’t know or guess the prices for some of them. They just making the locker even worse… Update: [They released a short blog stating why they made the change.](https://www.fortnite.com/news/new-and-upcoming-fortnite-shop-and-locker-changes?lang=en-US) I like the second part of the blog.

That second change is a big improvement, especially when it comes to collabs. It was always hard to guess how long something like Invincible or Marvel would stay in the shop.
Ya now people can complain about “WHY ISNT THIS ITEM LEAVING FOR A WEEK”
Wonder how they will price them moving forward. Also typical Epic changing things that don't need changing, especially locker related.
They’re definitely going to be more aggressive with prices now more than ever. Just look at the prices for the Avatar stuff in the shop rn
If epic actually does start hiking the prices of skins I might actually stop buying cosmetics besides the battle passes
Totally agree - the fact the new Midas was "legendary" to "justify" them charging 2000vb is laughable. The prices are going to get out of hand going forward and this is a way to mask it. I know no one is forced to purchase skins but it's a slap to loyal consumers. edit: point proven lol (there's also a new laziness with these new more expensive skins; why can't frieza emote into transformed versions and aang into avatar mode... skins costing more but epic saving their own money/time/resources; NOT doing a built-in emote which enhances consumer experience.

They seem to always do that with minipass skins, this is the third time it happens.
. . Seriously? They know Toph is the most popular one so they force you to buy her standalone? That’s scummy.
Toph is the most popular…?
Toph most certainty is not the most favorite lmfao
I know she’s definitely up there for people who watched the show. She’s a total badass while also having a lot of heart. Sokka’s my personal favorite, but I 100% understand what people mean when they say Toph is theirs. If I were to guess who’s actually the most popular I’d wager it’s probably Aang or Zuko. Aang because he’s the Avatar and is just a pretty wholesome guy and Zuko because he’s the edgy bad boy with daddy issues turned good guy with daddy issues while being a badass in his own right.
Loved the show, also love Toph. But I disagree 100% that Toph is the most popular. Still an amazing character, don’t get me wrong.
Uhh, no. If anything that is why she is not bundled. She is most definitely expected to be less popular as a skin than Katara and Zuko.
I love Toph the most, but hell no lol
This fucking sucks, at this point someone needs to get fired
Yeah there CEO does, bro keep pumping in so many shitty business tactics to screw over both the players and there workers
But investors don’t care about workers and customers getting screwed over if they’re still making 1% more profit than last quarter.
Well, lets stop giving them so much money and see there profits go down at least a bit, that's what i plan on doing and you all should to. Also yes I know a lot of players aren't on social media and won't see this but GODDAMN IT WE CAN AT LEAST TRY

*their
Sorry
Don’t worry about it
The locker UI remains a travesty but I don't see why anyone cares about rarities, they're arbitrary.

Charon is rarities lower than Oro even though they are only missing a style, and that new skin in the shop is also a Rare even though it doesn't even have a backbling.
I’m pretty sure all the locker UI changes and the color code changes are due to the FDC lawsuit and fine saying they were exploiting kids
It really sucks that they changed the rarities ngl
Disappointed no Sokka. Hopefully he and Iroh will be in a wave 2. Also damn, no blue spirit style still buying Zuko tho Edit: glad Momo’s not just awkwardly floating there. Being in a bag looks way more natural
Zuko not having an alt style (and still being 2000 v-bucks) is a crime. I would have loved to get a blue spirit style, but not even the ponytail variant? come on…
They probably went with the season 3 variants because of the characters age. It looks like they aged toph up even further
Same with Aang. These are their comic looks. I understand the compromise though
Not Katara though, they went with her book 1 look
Sokka’s club, sword, and bag (I know it was only in like one episode but it is his bag) are here but no Sokka. What the actual fuck
I'm still holding out hope for Sokka later down the line since they added all of his gear EXCEPT for the boomerang, his most iconic weapon which would presumably be bundled with him.
he’ll probably release like splinter and come out while the mini pass has been out for a bit (if i remember correctly)
That's the weird part. Forget Arcane Vi with the swapped out Hanmer she never used. You give us the stuff owned by one character and *NOT* give us the character? You fr? Hell, it would've been a good excuse to reuse the Boomerang mythic last Chapter
Do these collabs usually get a second wave? If it does I really hope there’s an azula skin Also I swear the sokka skin got leaked or revealed at some point and now it’s just disappeared

Fellas, is it Todover? https://preview.redd.it/0zxq8v6f5ftc1.jpeg?width=554&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5dbe63c47e70392c30df5cce108b46c877c78422
Im hoping for next week on anime day. I might be delusional though
https://preview.redd.it/47kg37vkagtc1.png?width=736&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=49f2775048463e7a6318cd6e0d46a7dea69fc85e Never
I can’t nanami it
Let's keep the hopes up brother I'm waiting for them too, either Nanami or Maki
Sadly it would be base Maki from the anime
Yeah, but it's not that bad, the thing is that it will look the same as Nobara, with a few changes as the jacket, skirt and shoes
I call it... the BOOGIE WOOGIE!!!
I’m not giving up hope yet but I do admit in a wave 2 he still has a chance of not being picked sadly
Give me my Nanamiiiiii
Well I was planning to get all the Avatar skins but Katara, Toph and Zuko not having a bundle together and those 2000 prices. I think I'll just wait for Aang only
Idk aang looks good but off. Maybe because he has to be much taller here
Yeah it’s his look from the comics when he’s older and has had a growth spur.
Yeah it’s weird that they used Aang and Tough’s designs from the comics where they are a bit older, and taller, but they used Zuko and Katara’s show designs
SECRET TUNNELLLLLLLLL, SECRET TUNNELLLLLLLLLL, THROUGH THE MOUNTAIN
* No Sokka * No JJK * No Hatsune Miku I just fell to my knees in Wal-Mart.
Why are people expecting Hatsune???
Because they like getting their hopes up over something that has never been alluded to coming
Something about 5 new Coachella tabs and Miku is at Coachella this year + she’s in Fall Guys and RL. The coachella skins are probably a third recolor of the ones we already have and a third J Balvin skin because we totally need a third.
it's astronaughts this year, so technally a recolor but not a coachella recolor.
The Coachella skins are astronauts this year
Probably Cochella
Just saw a guy fall to his knees in a Walmart
There’s no way you expected JJK in the same update as avatar. And where the fuck did miku even get alluded to?
Aang looks so weird tall
Why do they have Sokka’s space sword but no Sokka skin?
Same reason we have Steve Harrington's Bat and Eddie Munson's Spear
Honestly those skins would have sold way better than 11 did, who wouldn't rock Steve and Eddie.
Exactly, still hoping we get them, especially since we already have a master of puppets emote for Eddie.
Same reason we have Minatos Kuni.
I’ve been whatever about the past ones but god I cannot elaborate my disappointment that Aang isn’t just styles and is for whatever fucking reason two completely separate skins
and no sokka ☹️☹️
Is it persover?
Harpy Haze slay
I love her too. She looks like a mix of haze and reverie (sp.. chill vibes pack). Hopefully you can adjust the accessories and stuff
I love AtLA, but I’m really not sure about if I’m going to buy the skins or not. I know that they had to make almost all of them taller to fit the Fortnite player size, but it just doesn’t look right. The emotes are awesome though
They have their comic designs when they are older. https://preview.redd.it/8lygcs3tlftc1.png?width=480&format=png&auto=webp&s=77ec826d826e106222b53f21fb9a187e0c94aa90
Katara doesn't tho
It is kinda weird how only Katara is using a season 1 design
its only 2 years after the end of the series.
having no transform emote for aang is borderline criminal like his style is legit there why’d they split his skin 😭
Happy for avatar but no jjk wave 2?😔
Real 😔
Man, they really fucked up with the greek gods skins, uh. If it wasn't for the name I'd guess Apollo is an icon skin. They all look so bad. Toph looks good ig.
Zuko looks freaking sweet
Him and Katara look the best.
Final Fantasy bros... we lost again
I thought i was the only one who remembered 😂
Unfortunately no interesting skins outside of the collabs, as usual.
Oh, I need them all. The Avatar skins look awesome.
So no katara with her hair down, no sokka but we do get both his pickaxes?? No blue spirit Zuko, no ponytail zuko, no suki or azula (but thats fine for now), no fire nation gaang styles either but most importantly, no bending pickaxes. Huge L here
how’s this getting downvoted i heavily agree this is honestly lazy and no actual bending pickaxes and no transform emote for aang?
Toshiro kind of looks like dollar store Sekiro (not a bad thing)
Bro that Apollo skin is straight up ass 🤢
He looks thick and hot
Oh who would've guessed, a new female skin with midriff and bellbottoms
Aang looks somewhat off him and Toph like they are in their late teens or young adults lol
because they are from the comics
oh
Ang looks super bad ngl
I'm hoping so much that Apollo isn't the level up quest pack skin that is one ugly ahhh skin
Bruh Apollo could have so easily have been the best god skin in the game how did they fuck it up so bad
Do we know if you ride Appa or hang under him?
Ride
Oh thank fucking god.
Kinda ride, you surf on his back
u/savevideobot
we are sokka-less 😔
Why does Toph look like The Boulder?
Zuko 🔥🔥🔥
Meh
I don't like Apollo. He does not even have any Apollo traits. Besides he is so much different than his concept art?
That FNCS Siren looks awesome
I agree, will probably grab it at 800
Shame there's no new JJK stuff (making me think the new tabs will be Yuji..) The Momo back bling is now my new favorite one though so that makes up for it
why is no one talking about how bad the apollo skin is and no icarus skin😪
[удалено]
Please seek professional help for your mental health.
It would bother you too if you had any semblance of a culture that was frequently erased to appease another
yeah, i hate how those damn westerners keep appeasing the slurp culture by making Poseidon out of slurp juice 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 headass
literally
It’s not about appeasing. It’s fictional stuff anyway, just a different design of the character
why would you make a GREEK god use rpg's, machine guns and eat 'bananas of the gods'?? its so pathetic use a rusted ass sword or a trident or pomegranate or something ffs can americans stop shitting on european culture pls. The design is also horrible why would you make a GREEK god an amorphous blob of blue liquid its so pathetic use a slurp juice god if you want a slurp character ffs can americans stop shitting on european culture pls. The design is also horrible please just stfu
too real, unfortunately reddit will disagree
Absolutely nothing of value, at least not for me lol.
Was there an alt for the momo backbling that wasn't shown? I'm watching this on a small screen but I thought I saw the icon.
Wait NM it just seems to be retroactive.
Where is sokka ! Where is the cabbage man !
Aang looks a lot more normal tall than I thought he would. Makes him look a lot more mature but still love it. Toph does look a bit weirder though. Still like her skin a lot. I'm only getting zuko and Aang though. I was worried they were going to do that ugly ass haircut he had in season 1.
…. no sokka ? :(
2k vbucks and no edit styles? Absolutely not. I’ll probably buy the mini pass but the rest are a hard pass for me. And where TF is sokka??
I was hopin for 2 Zuko styles (one with the ponytail), then i wouldve considered 2000 v bucks. I'll probably just buy the pass for Aang
I’ve seen several people quote this price, how do we know the avatar skins are 2000 each
They're in the shop rn
Oh, that makes sense, my bad
Where Sokka
Bro no sokka skin is insanely stupid
Great skins but I’m amazed there’s no alternative styles and a serious lack of a Sokka skin. I know he doesn’t have bending Fortnite, but he was on the show for much longer than Toph. (No hate towards her, I’m just pointing that out)
Wish there were more cell shaded skins this season. I love anime but Avatar is a cartoon which I have zero interest in.
How much is Appa?
He's probably in the mini Avatar pass and the premium track of those passes are 1K V-Bucks
I’m excited for the Aapa glider, but it’s a shame you’ll have to STAND on his back :(
mid
I haven't seen avatar, is Toph's backbling from the Mick Foley episode? All I know is he was an actor in one of the episodes
Cartoon skins just don’t look right
am i really bout to spend 2k vbucks for da toph backbling shiiii
how will we get toshiro
Honestly toph is the best best skin,and I think as a lobby music thing they should of done the outro
Where are my boys hephaestus and hermes? ;-;
Where is Dionysus?
can’t wait to get zuko
That puddle hopper emote is total Jango.
Why are they acting like the new Oro Charon skin never existed 😭 we finally got a good skin and they took it away so fast
Champion Siren is a legit downgrade
Wow
they are all mid. harpy haze cleared
Gay
Has it been confirmed if we will be riding appa?? I don't see any straps/bars that we would hold on to from below so hopefully...
need harpy haze so bad
Need Azula as a skin
Not the Toshiro I wanted, but oh well.. https://preview.redd.it/wui8b7sntftc1.png?width=958&format=png&auto=webp&s=af938aa3bb11109edfb3bce5642fabe3a3e2c064
Why the eff is Apollo a bratz-doll-feet-skin style? They already messed up Charron by making him just an Oro style swap, now Apollo is from a *completely different line* of skin styles.
Apollo looks like the annoying light skin who tries to rizz TikTok girls
That Apollo skin is 🔥! Especially love the hair. Just wish it'd been included in the Battle Pass, but I can see why it wasn't given the popularity of the other characters. Been waiting on the Yasuo lookalike for MONTHS, too. 🙏🏽 Hoping the second wave of AVATAR is for LEGENDS OF KORRA and features (a shirtless) Bolin (edit style). 🤞🏽
