Any plans to bring old "Legendary" skins up to date?

Back in the day I bought Gentleman Cho'gath, Brolaf, and The Magnificent Twisted Fate, and they were cool... but they are still the same price, and are pretty lousy compared to modern legendary skins, not just in particles and animations, but also voice-over and general quality level. Just wondering if there are any plans to bring these and other legacy legendary skins up to par with the modern standard of legendary quality.

I look at these skins and I just see the potential for so much more. Custom recall animations are a standard feature on even epic skins now, and none of the legacy legendary skins has a custom recall.

Especially Magnificent Twisted Fate. He's lower quality than even the most basic modern common skin, without even a custom voice-over.

Riot pls!

Nunu bot is getting reworked to be a modern legendary skin with Nunu VGU.

Afaik they only update skins if they update the whole champ or for special events like releases of similar skins (PF Ezreal when they brought PF caitlyn).

Short answer, yes, absolutely. But then again, that answer is on the theory that nothing lasts old forever in games like these. Eventually, every old skin, especially legendary will get some sort of polish, it's just a matter of when which skin comes next in line

Most just have to wait till they receive VGUs as that's pretty much the only time when they will give existing skins love; unless they get the opportunity elsewhere but it doesn't happen often.
