Fortnite has a lot of rare skins that will never return, such as the Renegade Raider or Travis Scott, which never returned. But according to latest announcements, there will be a new skin joining them!
Fortnite skins became such more than just an in game cosmetic item over the last years. Especially old Battle Pass skins are now really rare, but everyone would love to get their hands on them. According to an e-mail sent to some Fortnite content creators, there will be another skin becoming extinct!
Fortnite: This Skin Will Leave The Item Shop Forever!
We are talking about the Janky skin. According to an e-mail, the skin will disappear forever after today's Item Shop! He just entered the shop again because of his added Lego version.
The Janky skin will NEVER come back to the Item Shop after tonight, according to the team behind Janky "Cop his LEGO look in the Item Shop now before it's gone forever at 8pm EST!"(Thanks to @RayandolfoYT for the info) pic.twitter.com/OidSqUm0TU

But the community doesn't seem impressed by this announcement.Known Fortnite leakers like ShiinaBR and Hypex assume that with this announcement, Epic is just trying to bolster the skin sales, since Janky has never been a popular skin or made a lot of money.
On FortniteGG, a site known for their helpful Fortnite assets and item shop trackers, the skin is ranked on 1469th place on the "most" used skins ever since Chapter 2.
There are currently almost 1800 skins in Fortnite, so this position is nothing to flex at all. So if you don't like the skin and maybe thought about buying it because of the rarity... just don't. They might be serious with not bringing it back to the shop, but maybe it's just a bait.
But what are you thinking? Is this clickbait and just a marketing trick?
