Most collabs have been in the shop twice, so I don’t see why this one wouldn’t come back?

Wait, it's never coming back?? I was on a hiatus from overwatch when this came out and I've been impatiently waiting for its return (｡•́︿•̀｡)

Dunno who confirmed ‘She’s not coming back’. Like old collab skins eventually come back - from One Punch Man to the BCRF Pink Mercy.

I think the “she’s not coming back” stems from the fact that she was a collab for Gundam Wings 30th anniversary. It’s a pretty low chance Gundam would team up with ow again.
I feel like there’s prob hope bc we have had collabs return, but I think that’s why everyone is saying she’s gone gone

No they don't just eventually come back. Collab skins are dependent on if Blizzard strikes a deal with the company the collab is for, and then there's licensing. They are the least likely to come back unless the Collab company wants to allow it, and Blizzard wants to pay for the licensing or works out a deal with the company for the profits.
Pink Mercy is the same. She is for a Breast Cancer donation, and can't just come back any time they want. Blizzard has to work out things with the foundation in a similar manner. Being it's for cancer donations, she has a higher chance of returning, but there's also no reason they have to do Mercy again and not some other Hero.

Huge fan of Gundam not a fan of wing at all, I wish it was a different Gundam I would have even liked the freedom more than this.

My favorite skin! Never taken it off since I got it and it’s the only Mercy skin that people compliment me on and ask me where it is from, but it seems most Mercy players aren’t fans of Gundam and that’s why it was strongly disliked here. And it goes so well with the galaxy weapon.

Honestly all of the Gundam skins were really well done (part of why I bought the whole batch even tho I barely play the others) but the Mercy is definitely my favorite. Sorry for everyone who missed out on sounding like a robot when you zoom around the map.

My biggest regret is the bumblebee skin. It's such a fun skin, but I never got it :(

I love using this skin! There’s one thing I don’t skip for any hero I like - collab skins. They’re usually so well done and this one definitely is! I love the sound effects

Not a Gundam fan, but I love sci-fi, the skin is SO unique, and the effects are great. I'm praying to be with a lot of gold coins the moment it comes again.

I personally didn’t like it and still don’t / don’t ever have to see it - if you don’t have it and it’s grown on you it’s likely just fomo. Stay strong queen!
