I can't believe Swashbucklers only have tails

Quote: SodaPopHD

Popsicle Swords? (Swashbuckler Class)
Hot Dog Stick? (Smasher Class, I think)
Petal Blaster? (Bazooker Class)


Next: Flaming Goat Launcher.

I'm sorry I posted this again but the original was taken down because "there's no need for name calling". However this needs to be heard so this can stop, and I've taken out what could be called "name calling".

Okay, listen up. I'm going to end this once and for all. Swashbuckler Imaginators are not limited to tails for their lower body. There are many reasons for this. The first reason, which is the most obvious one, is that parts for Imaginators are not exclusive to Battle Classes. The only ones that are are the weapons, of course, because the Battle Classes are separated by weapon types. The second is that this rumor all started because we saw a part called the Swashbuckler Tail. Seeing this made people think that Swashbucklers are limited to tails, when this should've had the opposite impact. If they were truly limited to tails, there wouldn't be one called the Swashbuckler Tail because then that would apply to every lower body part. Another reason this isn't true is pure logic. The past two reasons were hard evidence. But logic is another way to look at it. Why would Swashbucklers be limited to tails? It makes no sense, comes from no sensical place at all, and would limit what you could make, which is the opposite of what TFB is going for.

I really wish you were true, but there hasn't been any confirmation so far.
And by confirmation I mean an in-game image of a Swashbuckler Imaginator having regular legs.

Battle Class exclusive parts (except for weapons, of course) haven't been denied as well.
As for the name, there would be no need to call it "Swashbuckler tail" if it were a simple tail: the fact it has such a specific name seems to suggest it is something specific to them, which still doesn't mean it is their only lower body part type but that it may be exclusive to their Class.

I absolutely and completely agree with your last sentence: TfB seems to be aiming for freedom of choice for the editor and that's exactly why this seems so weird.

We've seen like 2 images of Swashbucklers, and they just happened to have snake tails because that's what they decided to put in the trailer.

If anything "Swashbuckler Tail" means it's exclusive to Swashbucklers, and that doesn't indicate at all that it's only tails, it would only indicate that that piece in particular is exclusive.

I'm pretty sure the name of Swashbuckler Tail on an item was just placeholder. Like how some of the unlocked swords would just say Knight Sword 45 or something. Either way, I personally don't mind Swashbucklers having to have the wispy tails I just don't think we needed a page long discussion on them.

That's absolutely true, we have too little information to confirm or deny anything right now.
I wouldn't be a fan of Class-exclusive parts but it would still be better than forcing all Imaginators from a certain one to only have a specific type of limbs.

@84skylanderdude - As much as I want everything you're saying to be true, I honestly can't blame people for having their doubts. It is true that we've only seen two or three Swashbucklers, none of which we've gotten to see too much of. But if it weren't the case, then how come we've only seen those Swashbuckler Tails on Swashbuckler Imaginators? Why haven't we seen a Brawler with Tail Legs, or a Knight with Tail Legs? And most importantly, if it weren't the case then how come, of the few Swashbuckler Imaginators we've seen, they all don't have normal Legs? I agree that it wouldn't make sense, but I'm afraid the evidence supporting it is stronger than your evidence against it...

I guess that doesn't change the possibility of it changed later in development, but the point still stands that we've so far only seen Swashbucklers with Tail Legs, and if they wanted to show off the creator, then I doubt they'd only limit Imaginators of that class to that option unless there was no other choice.

But, I don't work at Activision or Toys for Bob, so I don't really know anything.

I think he is a tech ninja actually

I mean Gold star somehow resembles Gold rush which was a tech element vehicle

That looks nothing like Gold Rush.

I mean the name not the look

It's not his name either.

Am the only person that thinks they look like a blue frog with 4 arms

I don't really see a frog, but who can really guess what a Skylander looks like. If Smash Hit is anything to go off of, a blur can be literally ANYTHING

^ You are right actually I remember that almost everyone thought that smash hit is a snake

Remember Ninjini?

It looks like we may have a Swashbuckler Tail/Leg situation with the heads on the Ninjas

More importantly is that it looks like we're gonna get a Ninja reveal soon too.

Could be, but we already know at least Quickshots have the same possible body type.
I guess it might be an option for all Classes, in the final version.

Oh, new level behind the Imaginator!
A snowy one, the first for consoles after SWAP Force, I think.

Hopefully, with the updated character creator, there's a "Body Type" option under "Look", where you can choose between normal, no legs and no torso (or more).

Doubt it, though.

It seems to be the same snow one we got a while back!

That would be the ideal Nightmoon. I'd put hunched in there too. Maybe even hovering though I highly doubt that

You are right, I had this image of a previously shown screen of a snowy level but couldn't really remember it well.
It wasn't the one with the "Wolfgang" and Trigger Happies poster, or was it?

GOOD HEAVENS, WHAT IS THAT ABOMINATION OF NATURE!?!?!?!
The first time we see a Ninja and we get THIS!? It's literally just a head with legs and arms!
This is an embrassment to all the awesome ninja characters!

On the plus side, at least it's not a Sensei.

Oh DANG IT, am I not gonna be able to make my Ninja Turtle Skylander after all...?

"Look"? I've never noticed that option.

Mhmk then. I already hate the Ninjas :/

THANKS FOR BREAKING EVERYTHING. NOW MY CHARACTERS ARE GONNA LOOK AWFUL

They already ruined three of my characters and I'm sure they'll ruin the Sorcerer Class and with that Lapis too! I'm sorry but I'm extremely salty right now!

They ruined... hmm... let me see.... SIX OF MY CHARACTERS!

See, the Swashbuckler thing half helps, and half ruins it. I needed my Light Character, Blastbright, to have what the Swashbucklers have, but I needed him to be a Sentinel and now he has to be a Swashbuckler. BLAAFVGDSDFH

Now my Dark Character, Dusk Cloud has to be a Sentinel. DAMMNNNITTT

My Fire and Magic Ninjas are completely ruined now. I DONT WANT THEM TO BE UGLY WALKING HEADS.

"Look"? I've never noticed that option.

It was in one of the Snapchat pictures, replacing "Body", "Gear" and "Color", which have probably been moved to sub-menus of "Look".
"Personality" was replaced by "Sound" and... I presume "Music".


What I hope for in the Look Menu:
Body Type
- Slider between normal, no legs, no torso (possibly also hunched and floating, or even more)
- Size sliders for the different parts (as seen before)
Body Parts
Gear
Color

That way, the first option lets you get a general idea of the body type and proportions you want, while the following let you flesh out the character with parts and gear, before finalizing the creation with coloration.

Well that brings a little bit of hope. It seems like they changed the Knights a bit too...

I like how we now have two classes pointing towards Dreamcatcher.

Um... well... now thinking about it, if the villains are going to look like this too...

Buzzer Beak?

Krankcase debunks that.

Not sure why no one paid attention to what's behind the imaginator. That's the level that we have that big picture of - seems like a winter village after all.

What? Krankcase is a Quickshot. Quickshots don't change their appearance.

Golden Queen doesn't float and Ember should be a Swashbuckler in that case.

I'm talking about for the Ninja Villain

Both Ninjas and Quickshots have the weird look in preview - and yeah, Krankcase is the only tangible argument against this other than "they have no reason to do a stupid".

They do have a special body type, according to this.

Indeed.

It was mentioned, but it's just background stuff. It could be on an alien planet, and the focus would still be on the character creation, since that's the central aspect of the game.

That is a very good point.

Still kinda going with Dreamcatcher as a Swashbuckler, but this doesn't deconfirm Nightshade as a Ninja yet.

Yeah. Still, that's a nice hat. Very fitting for the level.

Im pretty sure thats a Brawler... but I COULD BE WRONG SO SHHHH


Edit: Looking at it now, yeah, thats probably a Quickshot.

at least quickshots can have legs.

bayonetta and tracer are safe.

Theres still a little bit of hope for the Ninjas. If the Quickshot was smaller in the sky, and the Imaginators clearly have legs, then Ninjas might be able to have bodies. Maybe.

The only doubt I could have is him being a Swashbuckler and those weapons being some weird kind of pickaxes.
And that would be ok, since it would confirm Swashbucklers can have regular legs too.

But the way he wields them in action make me think they are indeed guns.

Doesn't seem a Ninja to me, except for the obvious ninja mask (y-you know what I mean), and lacks Sensei features.
