I'm thinking the guest villian from Nintendo will be the 11th. I doubt Nintendo will suddenly let them have one of their heroes. So technically it's probably twenty and ten for us non-Nintendo users...actually I have a Wii U now. Perhaps I'll get that version instead of my normal 360. Hmm. Decisions, decisions!

I wouldn't count on it. The 11th villain is CLEARLY going to be Kaos. No doubt about it. Mark my words!

For once, my first impression isn't negative. Usually I hate the looks of the games at first and then warm up to them. The freedom implied by the various sources really interests me. Only one thing could make the game seem perfect in my eyes: if they could actually drop their precious Kaos as the villain.

But would it really feel like Skylanders without Kaos as the villain?

To me, I don't think I'd mind it too much. I'm one of those people who like it very much when games introduce new main villains and are not afraid to do away with some of their older characters. It's just me. Though Trap Team was wonderful by introducing a truck load of new villains, and it's nice that they are returning. It's a step in the right direction, in my opinion anyway.

Imaginators has the same thing though with the Doomlanders. Those sound AWESOME! I can't wait to see those!

Ninja'd so never mind.
Um...
Crystal Gem Landers maybe?

I'm already planning on making an earth element Jasper. Depending on the available parts, I might make a fire element Garnet, tech element
Peridot, and maybe even a light element Rose Quartz...

So, can we expect a midnight vid drop like SSC?

Well I have no doubt that there will be a Kaos, but I feel it's him and 9 Skylander villians plus 1 guest. Just saying because of the counting trickery with SuperChargers. They said it was 20 Characters, but for us non-Nintendo users, it was really 18.

True, true... But it seems likely that they'll pull a villain from each element and Kaos and that'll be that. Seems to make the most sense to me!

These people are saying "FYI: Skylanders Imaginators will be announced on Wednesday at 8AM ET." I'd bet that's the right time for the hype train to blow right though the forums yet again.

Yup! Besides the custom characters, that is the feature I most look forward to.

Release dates-

EUR: October 14
USA: October 16
APAC (??? Aus?) : October 13

APAC = Asia Pacific. East Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Oceania (Oceania includes Australia, New Zealand, etc.)

Crosses fingers and silently prays for a villain vault thing where you can save your creations, so we don't have to buy tons of crystals.

Well, read you tomorrow, Portal Masters!

This day has been AWESOME, and I can't wait to see the reveal trailer, the press conference, more of the game itself and hopefully some new characters either in toy form or in-game!

9 'o clock for me then. Sigh, I'll just have to watch from the sidelines again, another day, another morning class with cell-phone threatening practices and another afternoon class without stable internet.
Don't forget screenshots if it looks like it's not supposed to be in the video, like new figures or quadrupeds.

Yep, but tricky is that Kaos was said to be Magic at one stage in Trap Team. He was changed to his own element at the last moment, or so the legend goes. So yeah, he could be the 11th element, Kaos-nium or whatever his thing is called? But I wouldn't be surprised if they decide he's magic either and do whatever with the guest.

Either way, I know I'll be buying a Kaos...well...they just better not short print him and make him an impossible toy like his Trap Crystal and people paying over $100 to get one. That would probably get me to just give up and not bother. It was horrible waiting 3 months and hitting stores dozens of times to finally get one.

I just realize that the reveal will be at 7 o'clock for me. Very noice. First I need to save up for Pokémon Sun and Moon and then I'll star saving for this so I can hopefully pick some stuff up on Black Friday, like I did with Superchargers.

Unconfirmed for now

It says in the Press Release that it's only Wii U, Playstation and XBOX consoles. No 3DS or Wii

have they dropped the ps3/xb360?

No, they're getting the game

Nah, CST.

Do you think this will have cloud-saving for your creations? I really hope so.

That would be helpful! I can envision a Pokémon Bank-like storage system.

I guess Bowser was the hint character all along. He wears armor and carries a weapon like a sensei (plus he has his koopa troopa "students"), and obviously he's also a villain.

I was thinking something like the Villain Vault, where you can change what creation you have in the crystal. That way, I'll only have to buy one of each per element.

Okay, so, I've worked it out...found all the sources possible (which were only two) and...

So the Toys R Us Link I posted yesterday was actually something. Interesting.

Yeah, that's my basic idea. I suppose we can only hope. I wonder if there will be different molds for the crystals. If so, I certainly hope there isn't another Yawn trap fiasco.

Well anyway, I'm signing off for the night. I look forward to waking up to 100+ subscriptions...

Ok I only read this stuff now. Feel free to put up a bunch of pictures of Slowpoke or something. Firstly, "Imaginators"? Really? But as I read on, the game sounds great. Also, anyone notice that there's no life Skylanders in the starter packs this year? Plus our first non-Dark Edition Earth Skylander in the starter pack?

Anyway, I'm hyped. But as I said in another topic, after the official reveal, I'm going to stay off Darkspyro until I beat the game. It's been fun, but I really hate spoilers.

P.S. Have fun showering in gummy worms.

We don't know if there will be no Earth Dark Skylander, we don't actually know what will be in the Dark Starter Pack....

He meant that GQ is the first Non-Dark Earth Skylander in a Starter Pack. The first Earth Skylander in a Starter Pack was technically Dark Slobber Tooth, but there hasn't been a plain Ol' Earth Starter yet.

My prediction for the Dark Starter is Dark Master King Pen, Dark Golden Queen, Dark Tri-Tip, an unknown guy, and an extra Creation Crystal.

8am Est.... Great. Right at the start of English class. Why couldn't it be from 11am to 1pm where I have a lot of free time ugh...... Do we know that it will be precisely at 8am or is that just an estimate????

The embargo lifts at exactly 8:00 AM EST. Luckily, I'll be at my Tech School during that time period and will have nothing to do for a solid hour.

So by 8 AM tomorrow EST (my time) it'll official be revealed?

My thoughts exactly. Without the extra character, but yes Dark Master King Pen, Golden Queen and Tri Top and a extra creation crystal. Dark Element? Anyone? :3

Yep, Reveal Trailer, Videos and Articles should go up by 8 AM EST.

UNLEASH YOUR IMAGINATIOON!
I hope we find out about more characters, but I think we've heard about enough most likely OFFICIALLY.

Quote: isaac343018s

I think it's just the feminine/human face and the fact that she (they're I suppose would be best) is a Fire Skylander is what's making people think that. I honestly like it. Don't really understand the hatred towards it.

I think it looks pretty meh, but we haven't seen the full thing yet so I'll reserve judgement!


Also, friendly reminder that the embargo lifts at 8 AM EST/5 AM PDT! Articles, Videos and the Reveal Trailer should all go up immediately once that time hits!

Sorry if this counts as advertising, but for questions, look here: http://royalpharodox18.deviant...-Know-612450531


I went to every source possible and could only find this stuff listed. Some sources are unofficial, so they're probably not EXACTLY accurate. But judging at how they backed up enough information as possible, it could be correct.

If I remember correctly, two years ago several anxious peoples released their theirs early and eventually everyone just released what they got to the world whenever they felt like it. Last year was a bit more organized. I personally would start checking here a couple hours before 8AM EST just in case "Kaos" happens again. If it wasn't for sleep, I would be here all night on the forum just chatting it up with others.

Logging off for the night, can't wait to wake up to my imagination freaking exploding

Night guys!

I hope we find out about the Fire and Life characters tomorrow! Maybe more villains? I'm hoping for too much though.
IS IT SAD THAT I'M KEEPING A BOOK OF ALL THE UPDATES THIS YEAR?

^ I'm keeping a journal, mate.

I'll think I'll log off for tonight. Hope to continue discussing in the morning!

P.S.- A lot of you have no idea who I am. I have been signed up for a while, I just rarely post and mostly lurk.

G'Night!

Yeah if it wasn't for the fact that I have school tomorrow I would definitely be up all night just waiting. Either way I'll be up at 6 so here's to hoping stuff happens 2 hours earlier than usual! G'night all! Don't explode from too much hype kids

It turns out the guest character is Jibanyan

but seriously this comes out the literal day before my birthday.

I won't be home till four.


Alright, folks. I'll expect 1,000+ posts when I come home. Cya!

The only thing I'll wake up at 8 am for hahaha SEE YOU ALL TOMORROW 8AM EST.
