I almost forgot about that. So they could technically do "cosplay" skins like a Starcraft one for D.Va or something since she was a professional SC player. Halloween would work too to give the others an excuse. Maybe after they all get a round of "normal" Halloween skins. I'm definitely a fan of the original skins we're getting currently though.

There is absolutely no such thing as "too much". That's ridiculous. The more there is to get, the more we have something to work towards. It doesn't have to cost you anything but time if you don't want it to. Or make gold in WoW and pay for it that way. It would really suck if they offered nothing during events. It's exciting as hell when a new wave of stuff comes in.

You don't get skins and items from other games in WoW but there's this for example Diablo anniversary that you'll get some items in WoW; maybe they can do the same in Overwatch and give some heroes a few skins from let's say WoW on its anniversary.
That being said it's a lot of work creating skins for heroes just for an anniversary or any sort of special, limited time event so I doubt it'll ever happen.
Not even a single mention of Zarya here...Poor neglected Zarya.
Some inspirations would be nice. But not full on WoW/Starcraft/Diablo costumes. That would be shit.
http://www.pcgamer.com/i-feel-like-w...the-overwatch/What are the chances of us seeing skins or stuff from other Blizzard games make its way into Overwatch?
We love the other Blizzard Universes and would love someday to pay homage to them. For our first year, we felt it was very important to establish the core Overwatch tone and vibe. Because we were creating a brand new universe with its own unique story and characters, we wanted to build a strong foundation for the game before straying too far. As Overwatch continues to become more firmly established as a Blizzard Universe, it opens the door for exploration, such as the awesome ideas you’ve suggested.
And then we saw Journey to the West skins...
Who all has Soldier Rockin Michael Jackson's Thriller get up?
The quoted line is a nice way of saying tehy don't want to put in the work for it, but they're already crossing with other universes with what's present already.
edit:....
WANT that Leeroy Jenji
give him the shout when he ults.
Barbarian zarya would be amazing. The cannon could have a monster skull look, similar to yeti Winston's jump packs
