Yes it's true, I was looking at the Gameinformer and long and behold the mysterious robot was there. His name is Bouncer and he is the tech giant. Here some background not his bio:

With his love for technology, you'd think Bouncer would originate from a lab or science experiment, but he was actually Skyland's version of a jock. He was a starrobo-ball player until the Arkeyan Empire destroyed his hometown and the robo-ball fields. The sport no longer exists. Bouncer's bid for revenge is fueled by his heavy fire power.

His attacks are shooting bullets from his fingers, rockets from shoulders, and laser eyes.

Secondly, Alex Ness describe giants as a "road trip" with Flynn driving you level to level. He also says you can customize the hub world just like skylanders. And that flynn's ship is basically where you are just like the island on SSA. Post more info and pics if you can guys!

Also it reveals who the giants went to earth. Apparently the new villans, the Areyans sent them to Earth and were buried or centuries. Then they were awakened when Kaos manages to reactivate an Arkeyan war machine.

Is it in the magazine or online? If in the magazine could you post pics? If online, link?

I can try to post a link, but can't do pics cuz I don't kow how to.

Enough with the freaking Arkeyans!

Is it from the newest Gameinformer magazine?

Yes I just got it today in the mail. I think it will do the four new skylanders thing as well till release. However they didnt sow pop fizz, but the rest were there from the Nintendo magazine.

You think you can scan the pages? Of course, I'll be getting my copy of the magazine as well by mail.

I can't because I don't know how too or I wold have done it.

I may post some scans when I have the chance, and when I get the issue.

is the issue the one with the circle of dragons on the cover? it has the elder scrolls on the back. because i have the june article but i didnt see anything abut skylanders

they were practically the british in the american revolution. the arkeyans fought so they could own skylands, but they also protected it when they won the war.

Bouncer? Sounds unfitting at first but the bio makes it make sense!
Cant wait till E3! How about you guys?

Could Bouncer be this robot in the pic. Ignore the dragon.

I think it's implied that he is, yeah.

If that bio is legit, you can see he kind of resembles a football player, with the helmet and larger upper chest.

A bouncer is usually someone that stops people from entering a club or other high class event. Makes sense since they seem to be implying he's more of a quarterback like player.

Although, with one wheel, he could probably bounce and stuff too.

This makes sense I think. Like Jet-Vac. Jet-Vac is a pun for jet pack or something like seeing how he uses a fan to fly.

Idk if mine is right cuz I went on their website and the cover mine had said July issue cover. What issue is yours. Mine is 231 and it says July.

I think they're pretty cool, to be honest. I see nothing wrong. If they protected Skylands after the war, it's no big deal. Britan didn't do shet with us, they just wanted us to make some cash.

No, the Arkeyans had protected Skylands, but they built terrible weapons to rule Skylands with an iron fist when the Giants were around.

Terrible? I don't think I read anywhere that they were terrible or the Giants did anything or they did anything to the Giants... right?
Of course, this is a kids game we're talking about. \:

They mentioned that the Arkeyans built terrible weapons on one of the Lore Tablets on Spyro's Universe. And Gameinformer recently also got insight of the game about the Arkeyans being the ones the Giants were against back then.

And Tree Rex's backstory mentioned that the wastes of magic and tech produced by the Arkeyans' war-machine factories turned him into what he was.

I don't care about that, I just don't want any more story involvement from them.

But they barely had any story involvement to begin with, they're just kind of... background stuff.

They were level sources. And remember, even the smallest things in a story can help build it.

oh, dude, its june... and its 230 for me

sigh, people just dont know enough... the arkeyans had a war with skylands to conquer them, after which, they protected them. its like "ill protect you if you give us taxes and resources. if not, we'll beat you till you agree" and they were pretty terrible, they were not eco friendly and they were unwanted. and acivision tried to make them mysterious. and you cant have mysterious if a 6th of the characters are related to them in some way. its just that activision mentioned them far more than minimal. it can get annoying, but true, it does build a story. and how did kaos end up activating a war machine of the arkeyans in central africa?!?!

I agree, but Spar, use the edit button...

WOW! For an long gone civilization they sure made quite an impact. Someone told me the ancient menace are the Arkeyans is that true?

Gameinformer article mentions Bouncer, and story! The Arkeyans are indeed the ancient threat the Giants faced! The Tech Giant is indeed named Bouncer by Alex Ness.

Cool? Do you think that we will see anyone of evil wizards that the Story Scroll mentioned. Also, are the Giants the same as Elder Elementals or something different altogether?

I got pics!

It's the same interview as the one already posted on the gameinformer website link I posted.

Bouncer FTW

THAT POSE.

SWEET TAPDANCING JESUS

Bouncers figure pose is pretty cool too

He's got a real Elvis/The Fonz look to him in that pose. I love it.

Did that Gameinformer also confirm the renames of Alchemist and Vac Eagle as Pop Fizz and Jet Vac?

Yes, the SkylandersGame on Facebook also confirmed them.

why did everyone get july magazines if its only the start of june?

^ I don't know because I went to GameStop yesterday to trade in games for giants seeing how there having that promo going on with turn in more games get more credit. Anyways, the magazine was the June one so I don't know if I got the right one. I'm glad I did though, cuz I got this new info.

People with power up pro subscriptions get them early.
