For those who are wondering if there is an OG Recon Expert style, the answer to the question is yes. Recon Expert is a plain unassuming skin that used to be one of the rarest Fortnite skins, largely because of how old it is. This one might look a little boring, but it is for the best since you do not stand much of a chance of getting your hands on it. It was included as one of the first skin featured in the game, it was only available during Season 1.
The game called Fortnite was not as popular back then so a few players of the game bought this skin. The rather boring appearance of it also meant it was frequently left sitting on the shelves in favour of the more eye-catching skins. It was lost to the ages until the developer of Fortnite called Epic Games decided to re-release it.
Aside from Recon Expert, there are some other OG skins in Fortnite. Here is the list of the OG skins:
- The Reaper
The skin called The Reaper is in unique situation of being almost ubiquitous on promotional Fortnite materials but rarely seen in Fortnite. This one became one of the rarest in the game by its limited options for unlocking. Players could only obtain it by making it through to Tier 100 of the Season 3 Battle Pass.
- The Merry Marauder
The Merry Marauder became one of the rarest Fortnite skins by being specifically themed towards the holiday season. This was only available in the store for a brief period over Christmas 2017. Such a limited time for earning the skin means fewer players bothered to pick him up, making it a real rarity when you are roaming around the map.
- Arial Assult Trooper
Arial Assult Trooper is named as another rarest skins in Fortnite because it looks so boring. It is also from Season 1, proving that the original skins were not anywhere near as much fun. This one lacked to pull to get most players interested, probably since it looks like the default skin.
- Renegade Raider
Just like Arial Assult Trooper, Renegade Raider is also from Season 1. It is unlocked after you reached level 20 and is slightly more common than the other first season skins. It is a little more interesting, but you are able to see that Epic Games was not quite sure where they wanted to take the entire skins thing just yet.
- The Royale Bomber
This one became one of the rarest skins in Fortnite as Epic Games started to dip their feet into something that is not appreciated by many, bundling skins with real world items. It was exclusive to a Fortnite themed bundle of the PS4.
- The Black Knight
This one is fairly unique skin on the list. The skin is the example of how long you have been playing, and your skill at the game. It was only released in Season 2, so it was not available to many.
