Am I the only one who gets a Wonder Woman feel from Aurora's background?
I mean, both disguised themselves to prove they were capable of handling themselves out in the world?
Also Aurora looks pretty cool, will probably pick her up Day 1 if she's available.

Probably shouldn't have laughed that hard at her backstory.
I mean, her moves look sick but I was expecting so much from her (my fault of course): looks original in her own way, and that's good but it most likely won't be my cup of tea. But hey, I like her more how!

Back story is ace.
Attack wise i understand why people think she might seem a little bland . But I think it's kinda cool she's not relying on obvious magic powers . She's purely and simply a warrior . They didn't highlight a personality though so hopefully it's a bit more animated. Her sky chi is literally too fast to see lol. I think considering her relation to eon they could've given her a portal master like sky chi . Like summoning in some warriors through a portal. like leading into battle lots of mabu That like hitting things with sticks lol I think she'll have a really impressive combo path to pick .

She'll be my roommate's character. My roomie always wants the female characters, since there weren't a lot of decent female game characters when she was growing up.
And I'm fine with that. I'll buy Aurora (technically already did, since I preordered on Amazon an hour ago), but she's a shelf-warmer as far as I'm concerned. |

I still don't like her anywhere near enough to get, but the backstory and the animations got her back to "alright" level for me.

For the sake of being a swashbuckler, I like her gameplay and now I wonder how the other two will measure up. I have a feeling the swashbucklers are going to surprise us with Chain Reaction blowing our minds away while Bad Juju finally gets more love with possibly some amazing and fun moves.

Not knowing Aurora's parents makes it hard to know if she's human entirely(I mean we have one confirmed human in the entire series, must be hard to find them as partners), though she definately is at least half-human.

her story might open up the world for more portal masters in the next game.
I'm not expecting her parents though, something about her backstory makes me think she's an orphan. But it's really nice to see them expanding on eons backstory at the same time as introducing a new "species" to the skylanders. Quote: Bloxz

From Aurora's gameplay she might be one of the Skylanders who need to be upgraded right away. |

Earth brawler gameplay. They didn't really do anything , but they showed some of the earth powers ( yay digging attack. Also the crystals actually jump out of the ground, they don't just protrude out like normal )...

You can't really tell coz it's video of a tv, but the third attack is definately a fist coming out of the ground. The forth one might be pushing a rock protruding out of the earth forwards. Hopefully those last 2 upgrade to something a bit more interesting.

I was hoping she would have had full control over all the Elements (except maybe for Dark) and an ability to summon lesser "Skylanders" but I understand that she can't since she hasn't been trained by Eon to become a Portal Master.
She could still have some surprising aces up her sleeves.

To be fair, she's walking comic plot fuel. Want the next Return of the Dragon King? Have an arc where she develops Portal magic and becomes the center of attention.
but can we please have wacky adventures with GQ, Grave Clobber and Bad Juju first

Aurora's backstory is nice, but not even that can save her gameplay. Her Sky-Chi has literally NO difference from King Pen's, her exploding swords look like they behave just like Sprocket's mines, and her sword attacks are exactly like the Charger attack for Swashbuckler Imaginators. She's the canon version of Frankenlander (A Skylander toy made from a bunch of other skylander parts, and how TfB suggested Swappable Skylanders to V.V)

I'm sorry for that. "Casual Fan" is something you aren't: it's too judgemental and it implies you know nothing. "Afficionado", that's what you are. Positive, passionate about their hobby, someone who's relatively well-versed. There's a lot you don't know, but also a lot you do know. But you're not someone who gets incredibly upset over the slightest negative aspect, or who goes wild over special variants of figures. I'll call you ToyAficionado when referring to you, and not edit the cite tags from "TheToyNerd" Afficionado is close enough ;-) I will try to show restraint and try not flame bait or escalate flame bait. I will attempt to contribute to discussions and not take away from them PS: I skimmed through the posts, apart from mysticat's moveset (which I couldn't find in the Skydad Vid, I fast forwarded, rewind we, etc, couldn't find the pertinent stuff) and the brain

Actually, it's the other way around. Imaginator movesets seem to be made out of their Senseis' attacks, or at least two of them, as are the secret techniques even if they only unlock one.

It's not just creepy, it's nonsensical. If it was like, armor made for Eon that she wore wrong, it'd be a funny thing that you'd have a laugh if you read the backstory. But here you're trying to convince she walked around like that and NO ONE put two and two together or issued a restraining order.
