Make ALL skins visible in hero gallery

I don’t know why this is a thing but why can I not find Echo’s OWL skins, same with Hog etc and some others.

Like I see so many skins I have never seen before because I took a 2 year break and I can’t even find them in hero gallery with all filters enabled. Idc whether they are locked forever like Pink Mercy just let me see them thanks?

Id be fine with it being an option, but I assume blizz doesnt show them as there is no way to get them, as u said. Plus people like to be able to see 105/105 or whatever, and they could never have all the listed cosmetics if it showed legacy items. Tho an option would still be nice.

I know but I’ve seen like 3 Echo skins that look awesome, a Rein skin, a Roadhog skin and some others. If people want to see their hero gallery as 100% full then can’t they just filter the unpurchasable skins out?

That is what is currently done. But showing all skins would still be fine imo, I just wouldnt expect that change to happen.

No I mean as in the player unselecting to show the skins that they can’t obtain. Not Blizzard hiding them from everyone.

You can do this already?

Or at least I could before.

I understand, im saying I would be fine with them adding an option to show the unobtainable skins, like you want to see. Even if the default remains as it is.

You can with skins like Pink Mercy, Tracer and Genji’s old OWL skins but Hog’s, Echo’s and some others all don’t show up on any filter.

I just checked it still works.

Just go into filter and mark off unowned.

Interesting. I can see all the league skins, but not some of the specials. I had to go to my alternate account, as mine has everything.

Let me explore this a bit.

You can see them if you go to the filter options, the check Legendary/Epic, Special/Legacy/OW ESports (Or any event you want to see), and Unowned.

Yep, confirmed. This is what you do.

Center filter column, check off all items. (click all) Then unowned on the right column. Done.

So yeah, still works fine.

Still doesn’t show anything different for me. Like I’m pretty sure I saw an Echo skin with a McCree looking hat and belt and another one that looks a bit scary ngl.

That was an emote from the last event I think. Or was it this one?

That Echo with the McCree hat is a victory pose, the other is probably ragdoll which was from halloween and an epic. If you set the filters up right, you should see it

Ok nvm yeah that was a victory pose but there are still loads that I’ve seen in game that won’t show up in hero gallery.

Well, unless you have the filters set as I described above you won’t see them all.

Don’t select anything on the left column, select all on the middle column and then unowned on the right one.

I select Halloween Terror and it says ‘empty’ for me. Idk if it has something to do with me missing like 2 HT events

Well this is interesting.

None of the special event skins (if you haven’t done them) are showing up for me either. Let me check a few others. My alt has very few unlocked.

I’ll check my other account and see if I can get them to show up.

Yep just checked a few that I know had special skins. None of them are there of the ones that I had not unlocked on that account. Even with the showing of everything.

Even Brigitte’s goat skin doesn’t show up. Wow. Yet all the all stars do.

None of the challenge ones show up and some of the special league ones don’t show up either.
