Most of the Premier Skins look close if not exact to their comic counterparts;
Jay Garrick
, John Stewart, Mr. Freeze,
Vixen
.

Premier skins don't get alt colours. And all the shaders are shown there. He even said on twitter thats all of them. He just didnt post Grid.

They do get alts. Like everyone said it's in the "everything you need to know video" and it's also in last week's watchtower stream when they were showing off the AI battle mode. When customizing Cyborg, there were 2 different color skins for Grid. There is unquestionably two. When two players are using the same premiere skin in a match there's a color differential which has been standard in fighting games for like forever now.

I do believe there are more skins. That guy has had the game for what... A day? There's no way he's completed EVERY objective in the game where a skin might be unlocked:

General story (linear and branching paths, all difficulties)
Multiverse
AI battle simulator
Guild battles
Vs. mode
Online versus
Arcade Ladder for 29 characters
Etc.

This is one case where we can lay the blame on the comic design from the New 52, since NRS did a pretty spot-on recreation (minus the helmet).

... The issue is more that it's easily Mr. Freeze's worst look since the 50s.

I anticipate that given the nature of Multiverse mode, we'll see some exclusive timed availability Premier Skins in game over time.
 
That guy hasn't unlocked those skins, those are apparently things you can buy and unlock.

So if Batman or Superman had one, he would have seen them.

Now there might be some timed multiverse ones, or some paying dlc.

Keep in mind the lack of customization goes against what they're trying to push for the game (make your own hero), so unless a character really fits, I doubt they'd try to make too many of those.

Oh I think that will definitely happen!
And for another potential general outlook on how premiere skins may be achieved, take a look at some of the unlocks for MKX:

Jax's revenant costume unlock was fucking bullshit though lol.

That is true but one of the members here who has a copy said they can't find those locked shader/skin icons in their game yet. So it's still not 100 percent if those are available to view from the start. Hellshingu I believe?

I agree. I think it's important to remember that Premier Skins work counter to the gear system and customisation NRS has been pushing. Given the Premier Skins have proven to be unique characters so far and expanded the roster, albeit superficially, the options for future Premier Skins might be limited.

It'd be nice if they got some exclusive gear options down the line. Not even asking for a lot, just a few.

Somebody said that premiere​ skins can have unique abilities, is this true?

The first time they mentioned them, there was nothing about exclusive moves, but, I think, a day or two ago, someone mentioned unique abilities, but I'm not sure. I'm leaning towards no.

I don't think we'll ever see custom gear for Premier Skins. I wish it was within the realm of possibilities, but I feel as though Premier Skins only exist because of the low development cost and potential for high profit. If NRS needed to develop custom gear for Premier Skins, we'd not see half as many.

She looks so bad.

Plus, for some reason, in puts in evidence how wrong the proportions are on Supergirl's model.

Look how long her arms are, and how low her knees are. The hell ?
Click to expand...

Nah, she's a 7 1/2 head character, arms are fine. She's crouched a bit so it's tough to gauge the legs accurately but it's within acceptable ranges.

This. She looks slightly off because of her slight crouch, otherwise her proportions are well within the accurate range for an adult. I love her design. She looks awesome.
 
That may be all the premier skins that are in at launch, but I'm damn sure we'll get more in the future. Namely CW and possibly DCEU skins. No way they leave that money on the table.

I'm disappointed she
won't have access to a range of animal based powers
(Premier Skin spoiler), but I'm so thrilled she's playable.
Click to expand...

You know what, though? We've yet to see all of the abilities for that character so there very well could be abilities that
summon animals
. Now I'm not very well versed in the history of
Cheetah
but I don't believe it would stop NRS from doing that lol.

I don't know about DCEU Premier Skins. I'm not sure that Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill are going to be down to provide voice work, etc. I think we'll be lucky to have gear available to imitate their appearance/recreate their costumes.

Yeah, I think the DCEU stuff is far less certain. I'm convinced the CW stuff is gonna happen though.

Haha. You're a glass half full man. Thanks for keeping mine topped up. We'll just have to wait and see, but it'd be awesome to see NRS take some careful liberties with the character to make it happen.
