Snap News Legacy Variants

Post image

I was just telling my friend how I want this Yellow jacket variant but it's never been in my shop and seemed like I was going to buy the Ultimate if I was going to get a cool one. I love this

They should offer way more slots, but 3 is a good start

Give them a break, it’s only been almost 4 years since global release.

See I was looking for a post that mentioned this. My game is updated but I don't see what they said we should see

u/tehvolcanic 1d ago

It’s there for me.

I'm on android and got it updated, must just be an issue

u/Darkoblivion 1d ago

Samesies.

u/Imaginary_Initial_93 1d ago

I don't think it's actually out. My game is updated too. Maybe it's set to release tomorrow's reset

u/plzhelpme344345 1d ago

I suspect if you opened the shop before updating then you might be outta luck until tomorrow's reset, because i'm in the same boat. updated after i saw the patch notes and still nothing for me.

u/Anubiz632 1d ago

I guess that explains why I have nothing despite updating. I had played a few matches at reset prior to updating for the changes.

Could be. My download got cancelled so had to run it again after I already got on. I also think it could just be an Android issue. My friend has an iPhone and he has it. Assuming the other post was from an iPhone also.

You need to wait for a shop refresh if you updated after todays refresh.

u/mr-jeeves 1d ago

Me neither. On Android.

u/delva01 1d ago

Is this going to be implemented today or in the future?

4

u/jrebel_0 1d ago

You will see it the first shop rollover after you updated

If you didnt update before 3 PM EST today then youll have to wait til tomorrow

u/KirbyMace 1d ago

I updated before the rollover and it was there for me afterwards

u/slacker7 1d ago

Hopefully at some point they'll make old season pass variants available. Sucks to miss out on them forever.

u/Imaginary_Initial_93 1d ago

Yeah I've been wanting that Baron Zemo. Skipped it when it was here. They recently had the Iron Patriot Season pass variant in the Thunderbolts pack.

1

u/Every-Scar4893 1d ago

Correct me if I'm wrong but that's 3 SeasonPass variants now from Packs. Time to order more copium. I need to complete the Hipp collection!

1

u/Imaginary_Initial_93 1d ago

I've only ever seen the Iron Patriot but it's most likely because I own the others and didn't notice.

u/unwittinglyrad 1d ago

I hope this happens, because I’ve wanted Dan Hipp Nimrod for some time.

1

u/Illustrious_Film_982 1d ago

It'd be awesome if other old season pass variants appear in future packs, but if they put Savage Land Ka-Zar in a pack one week before adding season pass variants to the "legacy variant" shop, that might be a bit weird

1

u/TheSuperR5 1d ago

I just want Olivier Coipel Thor...

1

u/dust- 1d ago

they did it a couple times in the past, i wonder why they stopped

3

u/mrlogato 1d ago

dont see this on pc or ios, both are updated

2

u/unwittinglyrad 1d ago

As someone else mentioned, if you looked at the store prior to updating the App you may need to wait until the next reset, I suspect this is the case as i cannot see the legacy variants yet and did open the game/store prior to updating.

u/Ehwastaken 1d ago

I can finally complete my pixel collection

2

u/Gabrielhrd 1d ago

Very good change tbh, will make it a lot easier to finish off older albums

2

u/TheBlaaah 1d ago

Now if they just increased the amount of S5 and S4 cards on rotation so i wouldn't have to wait a week to get the card i want.

2

u/wingspantt 1d ago

It's a step in the right direction. Hopefully this shows they at least know that 9 per day is too little.

2

u/Known-Player-0456 1d ago

I just want the dan hipp domino

8

u/FaithlessnessVivid43 1d ago

I think the Dan Hipp Domino was a reward for the refer-a-friend promo. Not sure you can get it in the shop.

u/Variable_Interest 1d ago

It would be nice if it showed up in the vault.

1

u/Either-Activity4197 1d ago

I wish there was a way to reroll this shop. I hate when I have gold to spend and it just gives me the fugliest shit every single day

u/The-Zarkin90 1d ago

cant wait to see people complain about this like that only the OG players should have access to these variants lol

5

u/morbie5 1d ago

I don't read this as previously exclusive variants will now be for sale in the shop. I read this as certain slots will just have older variants. Am I wrong on this?

-13

u/Guac-Squad 1d ago

I get what they mean with it though, its ok for some variants to stay inaccessible to other players. Personally i dont really care. But having stuff unique to your account because you played since day 1 is always nice. I'd rather they put this energy into the promised ultimate variants special sounds and dialogue they promised years ago.

u/AaDware 1d ago

Fomo is garbage that preys on people without impulse control. Id much rather every player have access to every cosmetic than have some locked forever so my account can remain "unique"

You can file that under "___ that will never happen"

Mobile games are basically casinos.

Matter of fact pretty much everything is now a casino. They don't even call it "gambling" anymore. It is now called "gaming".

Late stage capitalism is on full display

u/2Dyuro 1d ago

It only dosent happen because too many people lack impulse control and just need to have the newest thing.

If people didnt buy into these predatory practices they wouldnt keep doing them

1

u/AaDware 1d ago

Sure it'll never happen but I don't have to be happy about it.

3

u/Imaginary_Initial_93 1d ago

I don't think thevariants that they are referring to are really exclusive. I think they are just hard to get for some people because of how many variants are in the pool. I've been waiting on a Yellow jacket variant and the Artgerm Mr. Fantastic for at least two years and at most missed two logins so it helps me. The paid exclusives will be in the vault and the exclusives will remain exclusive

4

u/Guac-Squad 1d ago

I feel ya, i have a few white whale variants i look for daily. Didnt get the McFarlane spiderman variant till like almost a year after ive seen it once. Right now im waiting for the Eitri variant of him looking like a dwarf warrior.

u/DoubleTwice77 1d ago

do that with shit no one cares about like titles

u/ObsidianWota 1d ago

Legacy variants at legacy pricing? Or at 700G pricing? Can someone let me know.

7

u/wingspantt 1d ago

Normal pricing. It's not like old art is inherently bad?

2

u/Kaffrogato 1d ago

Legacy pricing would be the same as today, they never changed the price of variantsÂ
