I'm wondering if it won't be too easy if the "old" Skylanders already have LV10 at the beginning. Maybe there will be more LVs to get or on this game they will automatic have lv1 again.
No matter. I think I would reset them. Otherwise where would be the fun? I love leveling up.

There might be new power-ups you can get for your characters so you can make them even better.
Just a guess.

Is the new portal bigger? I'm worried about real estate. Can there only be one (highlander lol sorry) giant on the portal at a time? I saw the pic with Tree Rex and Stealthy chilling on the portal together but there didn't look like alot of room left over. I also noticed that the giants can pick things up and throw them (i think I saw this). Would be cool if the giant could throw the normal skylander places otherwise unreachable alone.

My face when none of these people "reporting" thought to ask a TFB or Activision rep what the name of the one character we have no information about is. Like seriously.

@isling: The new portal is the same size, but they claim that 2 giants can still fit on there. Personally, when I'm carrying out my figures to plug the portal into the computer for Universe shenanigans, I can fit about 5 on it.

Well, some people will already have the portal and wont want another due to space or simply because it's redundant to have a second. How much more expensive do you think the game wilth the portal will cost?

Also, how does the Wii portal connect? Just a random curiosity.

EDIT: How much will each new Giant cost? Ugh, I bet they'll be more expensive just because of size...

if you have the wii version you buy the wii version of giant... or are you suddenly going to buy the xbox version, when you have a wii and not a xbox?... anyway there is said they are going to release a version without the portal, so you can save a few bucks if you have the first game. the giant will cost around $35 each....

Mm..Sorry kappa. It's hard to believe anything without a source.

This site mentions that the starter pack will retail for $69.99. So, I'm guessing that'll be for the one WITH the portal? So then one without will probably be about $49.99 or $59.99.

Dumb question about the redesign: does it mean that we don't need to buy them since in-game, they will be the exact same thing as the old ones? I wouldn't have doubted that, if it wasn't for the part saying "with new items". I can guess that those figures may have some of the extra items you gain through your upgrade (like new boomerang for Dino-Rang, or armor for others, etc...), but I just want to know if Activision was precise about this point, and confirmed that there will be no reason (ohter than "real life" collecting) to own those redesign in the game if you already have the old ones.

There really hasn't been any mention of any real difference in game besides what we saw in Zook's vid. It appears that some of the attacks have new animations, but I'd hope they have some sort of other significant change.

In the least, I'm guessing the other 3 Lightforce ones will be new sculpts, unlike Prism Break.

That video shows that Lockmaster Imps will be returning. Personally, I was hoping they'd introduce a new lock puzzle. They could still have a new puzzle as well, I'd just prefer if they were going to add a new one they removed the old one.

I actually like the lock puzzles. But I do think they slowed the action down a bit. One can only hope that they've been changed up for the better in Giants.
