im going out sunday morning and getting it. hope i can get a good cast of characters with it on day 1.

That's basically what I'm doing . I have it preordered so I'm safe with the game. It's just the characters I am going ealry for.

On a side note does anyone think they will release info on the waves before release.

they will probably only release a character poster early like they did for the last game. i dont see them saying who will be in waves.

You know there is a picture of flashwing right.

@^ Yes we know.

Do Light-Core Skylanders get any different powers? If not, why should we buy them?

because they light up...?

Whilst I'm aiming to get all the giants for my son I sure as hell think the Lightcores are cool as hell, maybe apart from ShroomBoom...
if there was such a thing as a Village-idiot in skylanders Shroom is possibly the most retarded looking...

Somewhat yes. When they come I to the giants game a huge light beam comes down as well and that's it.

No, they did say some of the damage numbers are changed.

they really havent gone into a lot of specific's on how the light core characters will be different.

So, when are we expecting a new giant to be revealed?

Yeah, we heard about that a while ago. I didn't see the need to post any info about it since it doesn't have anything to do with the game (like, the actual software) itself. But it's still a neat little display, kind of like the Colosseum one.

sorry, It came up as brand new and couldn't find it in this topic.
and yeah, I should of posted it in the merchandise section.

It's alright, no harm done.

BOOSTER PACK

Already added

OK,i didn,t know.But dont you think this is awesome?

Shouldn't things like this be added to this topic even if it was posted somewhere else? I would consider it part of "Everything we know about GIANTS"

bionicle means that they added it to the main page, with the UK release date and price.
£40, easily afford it and my other game now.

I mean it's been added to the front post, so it doesn't need to be mentioned. The point of posting new info on this topic, is to make me aware of it - if I've already found it then you don't need to post it again. It's not to be a massive arse, it's so the topic doesn't reach the post limit too fast.

now i just whant to see the starter pack picture. im getting that one for the extra figures.

The Official Skylanders Youtube channel has added the Swarm Video that must mean that there updating the site because in the deception there's

Learn more!
http://www.skylanders.com/giants

We've already got that on the first post too. Next to Swarm's name it says [video].

^I know but the Official Skylanders Youtube channel posted it a few minutes ago so that means that there updating the website with all of them

Here's a picture of Swarm on the Portal of Power.


Also, here's a link to the page with the pics, video, bio and catchphrase. http://www.thehdroom.com/news/...er-Reveal/10972
Catchphrase is "Bring the Sting".

They haven't updated the site, Sunburn..

^Yeah. Uploading a video doesn't necessarily mean they're going to update the site.

Has anyone noticed this? On the large image that's been out a while of all of the various figures, if you look right behind the reposed Terrafin, you can see what looks like a red Pop Fizz. I don't know if it's supposed to be legendary or a variant or what, but you can clearly tell it's Pop Fizz because you can see his hand holding the vial of soda sticking up, and a bit of his claw from behind Terrafin.

I didn't think it was very clear.

Is it just me, or do Swarm's stings look translucent. I think that may be his lightcore.

All Giants are lightcore.

People...seriously.... Look over there...to the right...see it? IT SAYS REPORT. Now if you see someone's post that is out of context or isn't beneficial to the topic. Just click it and report it. Let Dark52 take care of being the forum admin duties. Stop ruining all the threads. Every thread is "OH NOZ IT WAS POSTED OVER HERE ALREADY" Instead of saying it...PM the person or report it. Stop crapping up threads with playing forum cop.

i think that swarms eyes and the big claws will light up

^Yeah, his eyes will most likely glow.

Xero, there will be users reminding mostly new users of the forum rules if they don't read them. You can't stop them.

Posting something we already know about doesn't warrant a report - that would be stupid. Telling the person that we already know should mean that (hopefully) they learn and, when they think about posting some new information, check if someone else has posted it before.

I've said this before, but I'll say it again: we don't say this all the time to be massive arseholes. We do it because it means that the less duplicate posts we have, the longer it'll take before we reach the topic post limit. Reporting/deleting a post does not correct this.

Also, I just noticed that if you look all the way to the right of the screen, you can see a figure that's mostly out of the picture, but I think this might be Sprocket, the new Tech skylander. If you look at the base, it looks like a tech base. At first I thought that the part of the figure visible on screen was Drobot, because of the similar colors, but it's not. It's got an orange base, and you can see the series 2 Drobot in the background, in a pose that isn't even close to being the unknown Skylander. Has anyone else noticed this? Just curious...

Also, I'll bet you $5 that the new fire Skylander is named "Hot Dog" lol.

Ah, good point. I had forgotten about the lightcore version. I had just figured the lightcore would be the same as the series 2 Drobot... just with lights. lol.

But what do you think about the red Pop Fizz I mentioned in my first post? Has anyone else said anything about this?

I guess I can see why people would think that, I guess they are the same color... But there's no way it's Hot Dog. Like I said, you can easily tell from the picture that he's holding the same bottle Pop Fizz is, it's even the same mold as the normal Pop Fizz, just repainted, like all of the current Legendary figures. I don't know if this one is Legendary, or a variant, or maybe it's supposed to represent his "Hulked out" beastly form... Either way, it can't be Hot Dog, you can tell from this picture that he has paws, not the claws that can be seen from behind Terrafin.

^Is that his name, Hot Dog? Cause that would be super cute! They should do that.

No, his official name hasn't been announced yet, but since all of the other new normal sized Skylanders have had their names revealed or leaked, I thought he deserved one too. Besides, you have to admit, "Hot Dog" has a nice ring to it and seems very fitting for him.

It does. I love it.

wow, they're using the orange theme quiet a bit.
(which is a good thing, it looks cool)

By "Is it just me, or do Swarm's stings look translucent. I think that may be his lightcore." I think he meant that his stingers might be the light-core part of Swarm's figure.

Wait what? Voodood repose confirmed? Pics please, this is good news

It was confirmed in an article and there are no pics.

If you zoom in on the poster, you can probably make out what element each row is.

And is it just me, or does the 3rd one across in the magic row (top) look like .
