I figure that the regular reposes/new regulars will be the same, but I'm curious if the lightforce ones will be more expensive. And, how much more will the Giants cost. I'm also curious to see how much of a price difference there will be for the starter packs that don't come with a portal. Finally, I would like to see what they do with Giants figures in some type of triple pack type of thing. Speculate away everyone! (and geez, is this game getting expensive!)

you will just have to stop speculating and wait until the release day of the giants. if not it will drive you mad... just saying.

You have a point. I guess I'm already a little mad from the current hunt xD

What I'd really hope they do is just put Lightforces in randomly with the figures, and have nothing on the box stating as such. That way, scalpers won't know without trying every single on on the portal (Which I'm guessing they'll leave) and can you just imagine the surprise when a kid puts a Prism Break on the portal and he glows? I'd pay money just to see that reaction.

So I'm thinking:
Reposes, Lightforce, new single figures: $9.99 (Everywhere)
Giants: $12.99
3 Packs and Assuming they're still selling Adventure Packs: $24.99 (Everywhere)
Giants game minus the portal: $49.99
Giants game plus the portal : $59.99
3DS Game minus the portal: $29.99
3DS with the portal: $39.99

I Don't Think The Portal Will Cost Anything.
I Think The Reason The Starter Packs Were $20.00 More Than A Normal Wii/3DS Game Because of The 3 Toys.
They (Use To) Cost $7.99
8 x 3 = 24, But They Cut The Price Down A Little.
But This Is Just My Observation.

I asked the cashier at my local Gamestop and she said that Giants in single packs would be $14.99 each.

...Yeah, because they defiantly know how much they're going to cost 6 months before they'll be released.

The three figures and the portal all cost money and their value was added to the man game. Actually, it might be why the single pack figures are so expensive (to break even for the money they lost with the start packs).

However, Will the three toys even be included with the non-portal version? I mean, the starter pack was meant to get people acquainted with the game. This time, there's a following with figures already. It'd be nice for a portal-less version to have the figures but I think, honestly it'd be a better idea to not have the three figures and just release them as standalone wave 1 figures.

i know this much already... it will cost more than the first skylander game.

well 15$ for a giant makes sense

I hope they are the same price because just increasing the price for something bthat is the same as the regular skylanders but bigger is just dumb. But that's capitalism for yah. But anything above $15 is outrageous!
