Champ Skin Model Switches - Would this be doable from a gameplay perspective

I had an idea for a champ skin. It was basically take one character for the kit, but give it another champ's model, most of the animations, and the VO for the theme. Basically it's a theme idea that needs one champs kit but another champs character and them.

Is that something riot would be willing to try?

I can see potential early laning feedback for the other team being an issue if you weren't paying too much attention, but I don't know if the idea would be toxic or not.

Between swapped silhouettes, hitboxes not matching up, ability animations being overdrawn/hidden and melee/ranged mix ups I doubt this would be a good idea. There's a lot of work put into a champ to make sure everything matched up with a model, and it's a shitstorm whenever they make it to live (or PBE) when they don't. Sorry, but I don't see this working in any form....
