Just because he isn't under an embargo doesn't mean there isn't one at all.
They could have simply not invited the familiar faces because they truly wanted it to stay a secret until E3 like SkyFan suggested (I still think the Barbella picture itself might be more like a teaser rather than a proper leak) even for them.
But yeah, the figure itself might simply be an unused prototype.
Even though if that were the case we might still get brand new characters; who knows, the guy might have confused some statements.
But they have no reason to stay hidden. Even if Acti is horrible with marketing, they know a 2.0 announcement will just get some eyerolls from the general public; it'll convince fans and fans alone. To maximize on that they need to use the youtubers, and at least until they went silent, they were using them a LOT to get word of mouth going.
I didn't mean it's unused, I mean maybe some press was doing an office visit for something else and they happened to have the figures visible, remember Knight Light where they had the prototype on a shelf by accident and Skydad focused on that more than the actual office.
Oh, now I got it!
Yeah, that could also be very possible (kinda funny how Knight Light's prototype didn't generate as much hype back then, if I remember correctly) but then it would also make the whole Krakatoa and Void thing less credible.
I agree, a complete surprise at E3 would be great for us but not that good for the series itself.
Less than 2 weeks, now; I wonder on which day they would reveal it.
Quote: King-Pen KrazySorry if this is off-topic, but, say Spyro and Skylanders both die, and their is no revival.
What happens to this forum?
Would definitely be less populated but still alive, I believe.
The older games are still a gold mine in terms of discussion and meta-playing (such as mods and texture hacks), and fan games could also bring new life: Spring Savanna, anyone?
Skylanders on the other hand would probably suffer from that a bit more, but there would still be at least Academy and the mobile game.
