My friend at tru was checking to see if anything else was coming out for superchargers and found this

Your friend works at TRU?

I hardly doubt that this is real. Just ask the hackers.

Crash Bandicoot in Superchargers totally confirmed with this piece of paper, spread the news around! Maybe they will bring back Spyro next?

Ehh.. Doubt this is actually Crash Bandicoot.

With the amount of new data that can be released via patches, it's possible but highly unlikely.

And pcola is trustable.

I've seen someone find this before but can't recall where or the context,just that they assumed it was some weird Combo Pack which happened to have the name.

Either way, I do wish this was really Crash, but VV wouldn't have saved this bomb for so long - even Dark and Light had scattered hints, this has no foreshadowing.

Crash ...not a chance ...there to busy introducing non skylanders....amiibos to the game!

Crash Bandicoot would have been a game seller, and a character they could have built the game around, like Spyro was for the original. I really doubt they'd release him as an afterthought following the holidays. Anything is possible, but it would be huge misstep from a marketing perspective.

Well, our hope is that for once their stupid decisions during this game get them something done right,then :U Crash would've been as much of a game seller as amiibo,imagine putting them together for E3 and Gamescon(which had just online racing and zzzzz)

I think they will add Crash for Sky 6. It's 20th Anniversary in 2016 after all.

But if they released him for Superchargers next year,it'd be still for 2016,wouldn't it?

^this. A massive cross over would be a game seller by itself, and they'll probably keep that for future installments.

If this is real..... Then skylands will be changed forever.

Ib was really hoping this was a video of two in-game vehicles crashing against each other.

With the new Crash Magic Item(which is special and doesn't unlock furniture!) you can now see your vehicles ram into each other and tear themselves apart into bits and pieces! Look at the exploding gas tank, the wheels flying out!

(*unrelated to the Self-Destruct boost.
**Activision is not responsible for panic attacks from people who've been on car crashes.)

Wait I don't see where it says Crash even after turning the image.

Edit: Then miraculously I see it right after I post this in under 5 seconds.

Did someone call me?

Anyway, Crash would be very good for selling the game, but I think that it would be best to include him in the next game. With the big focus on vehicles, I think that he will be not as much good for this game.

I don't think that this is real, but there's good chace of seeing Crash in Skylanders. Maybe in future.

This is very likely as fake as that false image of Crash someone made to set up as a "leak" for SuperChargers on April Fools Day. Yet some fans believed it anyway.

The item number is 411023 you can call tru with that number and they will tell you the same info I have

Yeah,doesn't sound fake,but we could easily be overestimating :U No TRU where I live so not up to me to verify.

My question is what's with the $25.99 price?

I can't think of any SuperChargers pack that sells for that price at TRU.

Okay, if this was real, then don't you think any one of the hackers like the ones who found out about the hidden variants or the whole Light and Dark fiasco last year would've found out about it by now?

They could learn from their mistakes (Or well, VV learn of TfB's mistakes) and add the data through a patch.

After the Dark and Light fiasco,wouldn't they put a secret reveal behind a patch so it can't be leaked beforehand?
But with this price and this small title,chances are it's some placeholder that just happens to have the name or something. If it's real,only one way to know and it's waiting.

Someone found a peg at a store that said skylanders guest star...... hmmmmmm

What?

I took it as the franchise has crashed, and this is an incident report.

Pretty sure that unless the images for the figure were in a patch, we know who's coming in this game.

If Crash gets in, I will be very happy. I have wanted either him or Hunter to make their official Skylanders debut for quite a while now. Then Spyro would finally have an old buddy from his past at his side, just like days of old.

Prediction: If this is true, then I bet Crash will come in some kind of special bundle pack, explaining the whole $25.99 thing.

That could also be for Bowser and/or DK...

Hmm. I wonder...if this had said "Sonic" how many people would think "Sonic the Hedgehog" instead of good old "Sonic Boom?" LOL! This crash obviously is something related to "Sky" as that word is above crash and this does has a $25.99 price. So it's most likely this item:



No clue where crash comes from this, but it's the only logical item on their website.

I'd be all for a Crash Skylander, hoping they would skylinderify him just like they did for Spyro.

Now I wonder which Element could suit him better...
Life?
Tech, maybe?
Earth?

This seems all quite true, really looking forward to whatever Activision is up to.

Pretty sure sky has to do with skylanders on most receipts it says "sky superchargers *enter character/vehicle name here*"

I could see Magic, Life, Tech, and Earth being the most likely. Maybe Light, but that would be a bit of a stretch. I personally expect him to be an Earth Element.

If it is his classic counterpart, I think that Life suits better. If it's his Titans counterpart, maybe Magic.

To be honest, Magic seems to be the Element where all the Skylanders that Activision can't pick an element for go. To this day, it is still beyond me how Painyatta and Bomb Shell are of the Magic Element. What's so magical about a donkey-monster thing that barfs candy and a turtle that throws bombs?

Back on topic now, can we basically confirm that Activision is up to something with this?

I prefer to not confirm anything, so I don't get disappointed if it doesn't happen. I just prefer to wait and see.

If Bowser and Donkey Kong have shown us anything, it's that guest stars won't bring in profits for Skylanders. They may have inflated the already dismal sales numbers for the Nintendo system Superchargers starter packs. If Activision was serious about making some money, a sure fire profit would result from re-releasing the light and dark element expansion packs along with Spotlight and Blackout.

Outsiders don't even care about that, collectors and big fans wouldn't really bring more money than the skymiibos. What would work are console-wide guest stars,because then outsiders would come in AND old fans would have a cool guy they like from another franchise without needing to buy a specific version.

The more I look at it the more it just looks like merchandise.

Id be fine with crash coming to help spyro save skylanders... Would be nice that the starter comes with crash and spyro ''(yes i normally am against reposes...but its spyro!!)

Would like the game to otherwise have all new figures, recapture the magic of ssa and giants.

Guys, let's also point out that the OP may also be assuming and jumping into conclusions that Crash may be in SC when there is no sign of the word "bandicoot"' anywhere so far.

I get the feeling "crash" is either going to be a board game or a set made to move your vehicles.

A lot of people are feeling the same way. You beat the easy game quickly and feel like you're going through the motions picking up new Skylanders as they come out and then playing with them for the sole purpose of getting them upgrades and leveling them up on levels you've probably played over and over again already. At least with past games, we got new levels later on with adventure/expansion packs (sorry, these racing packs just aren't the same). The variants and guest characters just don't have much excitement or wow factor...Activision needs to get their creative juices flowing to drum up real interest and hype in Skylanders again.

I'll say it again: how DON'T the guest characters bring in wow factor? This forum was on fire during the announcement. Yeah,the outsiders ain't gonna stay if they don't carry over(or even then), but for now,it did get people's attention. For ONE YEAR, Skylanders wasn't just goblin spyro and friends(+misinformation that he isn't playable anymore), we were the games with Bowser in a 3D hack-and-slash. If it was done right,we could've stayed with a reputation like that - but it was the new thing,and don't try to tell me at the time most of us weren't amazed.

The forum represents a small fan base...forum was on fire for the new Eon's Elite Boomer and Ghost Roaster, but has it translated into big sales? No...they are collecting dust on the bottom racks of Skylanders displays at TRU. The guest character thing has been done as of a few months ago with Bowser and Donkey Kong...adding some more guest characters now doesn't make me go wow and I am more than happy to put money down betting that any future guest characters will be shelf warmers and dust collectors beyond the first week or two of sales. Now Bowser and Donkey Kong are a big afterthought in the Skylanders universe and I doubt any guest characters will drum up even a fraction of the sales the 2 Skymibo characters did (a lot of Nintendo fanboys wanted their Skymibo even if it was half Skylander and half Amiibo).

Well, just like the forum doesn't represent the fandom, if you like them or not doesn't either. A guest like Crash would bring down the flamewar, but would also be the small hope of a franchise that's been dead for over six years. Not everyone has super high standards, and would go for this guy at least to have a Crash figure and say they do.

You just described what Amiibo fans said about them being to be able to purchase Amiibo figures of more obscure and smaller, yet dedicated fan base characters such as Fox, Mega Man, Villager, Ness, Sonic, and the Fire Emblem gang. I doubt Activision is going to go down that path, but I hope you get your Crash figure if that's what you really want.
