Personally, I think these Skylanders are trapped inside vehicles/engines, in the same way that a genie is trapped inside a bottle, allowing you to switch between vehicle mode and Skylander mode on the fly as the game requires. I think that's the gimmick.

Also, in regards to the late reveal, I distinctly remember lots of people moaning about Activision not showing enough regular content between reveal and release last year. That happens when the dates are too far apart. They probably felt they wanted a shorter window to maximise the marketing noise from their reveals. It also allows them to assess the opposition and steal some of their thunder.


Exactly what I was thinking. In SSF, we went for MONTHS without any reveals until a Star Strike picture leaked. In STT we had info a lot more often, and this time well have info even MORE often.

I'm just confused what multiple posts complaining about someone's personal reasons for not posting their own photos have to do with Sky5.

I have several images of this figure I have been asked not to post online. I was however allowed to make a video of it. (Don't ask IDK why). The source of these images wishes to remain anonymous. Here is the video. I apologize in advance for the quality as my lap top is not working and I had to record the screen of my desktop with my iPad.

Those images are still literally the same as we've seen, except for the size comparisons.

The images are also way too bright. He's actually VERY dark gray/black-ish blue. Only the "engine/grill" thing on the base is black. I received pictures directly from the seller.

Obviously, I can't post the pictures due to the fact that Activision will most likely take the pics down.

I've chased this story down and personally found this seller as well. As far as I know, the story is true. I have another picture coming later that compares the new figure to a core character.

Or Trap Team-sized. The range between gimmicklanders doesn't change that much(except for Minis) for the time being. Either way, the engine gives away already that it's a gimmicklander so no surprises there.

But Matteomax, do you know if it's dark like other characters with mainly black palettes(Smolderdash,Krypt King) or it's much closer to blue than we're used to? It could give us a hint to Clawbellows' actual color.

I don't have those two reposes but the majority of the Trap Masters is just a bit smaller than the Giants.

Well WOW then.

I didn't imagined they were this big!

Then it could simply be a big Core (they have already experimented with unusual sizes with Trap Team ones like Rocky Roll or Tread Head) but there is still that odd base that doesn't convince me...

You know, this figure almost looks like a blend of several element, tech, air, fire, maybe life and water. Could it be that maybe there are only very few gimmick characters and somehow you add to the base and change their powers and in game color scheme. Just a thought.

Would be a couple days before that german magazine's article about it.
Perfect timing.

I wonder if youtubers and press already got some info about a possible reveal event.

If they did, it's under NDAs so it's polite of us to not try to ask. Wouldn't be surprised if the bigger ones did though, even if it's a poster or a video. They all get B-rolls of some characters after their reveals.

You know, someone on the Sky Subreddit posted some nice pictures from the SWAP Force art book that seemed to feature vehicles as well. Since SWAP Force and Sky 5 were done by the same studio, I'd say there's a good chance that the vehicle idea was something scrapped from the development of Sky 3, but brought back for this next game.

It looks like the sign says Baa-ttle Flag... Like a racing flag?

Shouldn't the logo have the two new elements? Or are we thinking that was a one-game feature?

Not one game feature to have the entire lore about the Light and Dark Realms and how the four skylanders used to be around before the Core was destroyed it'd be like wasting money.
Besides, the picture for Battlecast/Baa-tle Flag was found a long time ago, it could've been before TFB was given the ok to add the two elements and there was no logo art for them.

#136 Posted: 15:52:39 24/05/2015
I wish, though being Acti they'd only get greedy with it and start putting useful stuff behind even more paywalls.

DLC costumes would be probably too much work for a yearly game but I'd be all for DLC palettes, especially for the villains. Hektore colors for Dreamcatcher, Enfuego Chompy garb for Chompy Mage,"Blue Bomber" colors for Blaster-Tron, so to say,or even Eon colors for Kaos. It doesn't take too long to change some texture colors compared to actual costumes and we know they aren't afraid of references.

My wife is already trying to convince my son not to get the new Skylanders game for Christmas since Lego Dimensions is coming out (Back to the Future and Doctor Who in the same game!). With the delay in announcing Skylanders 5, any excitement about it is getting lost. If the gimmick has to do with vehicles, it really doesn't excite me. They can prove me wrong, and some of these so-called prototype designs do look good. But I'm just not feeling it, yet. At this point, not having gimmick Skylanders and just having vehicles (or other accessories) that we can use our cores in (especially older ones), might make it more worth it. The Mega Bloks sets show vehicles with older characters, so could it be possible? Or are they just making stuff up? But the new design of the base, makes me think they redesigned to fit into the vehicles. Older figures wouldn't have that.
tigerdr Yellow Sparx Gems: 1976
#146 Posted: 02:07:38 25/05/2015
If the base designs are done as such means only certain figures can fit and take advantage of it. Hence the gimmicklanders to do anything for the game. If its a gateway to lock all older figures out that might end up with some backlash if they need to use vehicles constantly for the game.

Innovate the game will make it worth it. Give us NEW gameplay mechanics, new goals, better content....otherwise after 4 games I'll be happy just to get the starter.

I really doubt they'll be locking out old figures. I also doubt the entire game will be vehicle based. To me the entire thing sounds mostly like a way to get more advanced technology into the series.
