^ I rember that so. that's like the only thing I rember from that show.

I have zero interest in the Battle Packs and hopefully they'll have nothing more exclusive than a reposed figure. Could care less about extra multiplayer levels.

Better image:

I won't be buying any battle packs.

thanks for the pic its really good

Interesting to see the pack has an area that shows it's compatibility.

i REALLY whant this. looks like i will be going to gamestop right after target on release day.

All the articles seem to be quoting from the same press release - it's really unclear what 'exclusivity' GameStop are actually getting from the battle pack. I'm gonna presume that they'll just get it before everyone else like how some of the SA adventure packs got timed exclusivity in TRU.

That's probably it. Might be exclusive for the first month. I bet chill is in an adventure pack.

Its a safe bet to expect everything released on the german amazon site will be in stores by Christmas expect to see all these items by wave 2 at the absolute latest and most of them included as wave one.

Chill has been announced for both regular single release and a triple pack with Zook(S2) and Ignitor(S2).

Why is Giants on Wii U still guesswork? It was confirmed a while ago. You guys should start reading Nintendo Life

Wii U

It was confirmed wether people are buying it or not.

^what?

On the first post Bionicle mentions that anything in italics is guessworks.

Giants being on Wii U is in italics, thus, guesswork.

However, Nintendo Life confirmed it was coming to Wii U a couple of months ago.

Ok. Thanks for clarifying.

My bad, that was on the developers

Quote: dark52

From the icons in the background it looks like there'll also be some sort of catapult themed battle pack.

Wonder if they've fixed the fire icon on the life cards this time.

So, I think it's safe to assume, there will only be 2 battle packs. That's not so bad, I guess.

That was because we have no confirmation of developer for the Wii U version. It will probably be developed by Toys For Bob - but there's not actually been any confirmation on that, only that a Wii U version is being made.

I just noticed.

If there are 2 battle packs, I would want both.

i don't yet have chop chop so i'll get it

Just wondering: Why does Sonic Boom have the same image x2?

I wonder if the original figures are going to stop being produced, and the value of them will increase, when Giants comes out..

However, the ones that don't get remodeled will stay I think. They just can't throw them out too.

if the adventure packs work in the new game, like they have said, then i think they will keep producing those as well.

im guessing 2 adventure packs and 2 battle packs, or 4 new battle packs and no adventure packs. (so there are 8 elements.)

If there are going to be two adventure packs, I think we're getting two new kinds of packs with two Skylanders and a LEVEL. This allows one per element. Well, I don't really think it will happen, but it's what I would do...

I would think they would make 4 adventure packs so all elements could be in one. But what do I know.

Battle packs:

Should be an extra level for $2 at Wal-Mart (etc) pricing. Gamestop and TRU charge and extra $5 for these where Wal-Mart is only $20 (current 3 pack and adventure pack prices). If that's the case you are getting two figs at a value of $9 (Wal-Mart) and therefore a level and display piece for $2.

Not bad.

I was listening to FPM PLAY and Alex Ness (Toys for Bob Nember) said there will be new Sidekicks

EDIT: I just finished watching and found out that there will be no new adventure packs. They are replacing them with the Battle Packs.

Well the new Sidekicks had better come out EVERYWHERE, or I will get sick from all the Chaos I'll get to eat

Here's the link to the podcast.
He does say that the Sidekicks fight but...eh.

At 20:15 he confirms they're gonna be new ones in Giants. 48:53 he confirms no new Adventure Packs just Battle Packs.

Kid is cute asking questions but it gets really awkward to listen too.

Hmm, interesting. I wonder why that is? Maybe it's because the adventure packs from the first game unlock new levels in Giants too - so they decided to introduce something new. It leads me to believe that they'll probably keep manufacturing the adventure packs from SA.

in my opinion activision will continue to make them but they will have the sg logo and be orange.
i also think that they will replace with and with either or

My thought exactly, though they might replace them with the new Undead and Fire skylanders rather than S2 characters - and rather than them being exclusive to that pack, they should also be available in a single pack. So, for example, if the Fire Skylander was available with Dragon's Peak, he should also be available in a single pack for those who got Dragon's Peak during SA.

Well we know Terrafin will be in a single (and probably Slam Bam too) so that leaves Ghosty and Sunburn to continue being regular versions. I think the new Earth and Water Skylanders would be added into the packs so that they can sell Terrafin and Slam Bam as singles ONLY. I just can't see them sticking Ghost Roaster and Sunburn in single packs without them having a remodel. (Which they won't)

^ Could you answer my question please?


Why does Sonic Boom have 2 of the same images?

They wouldn't put Ignitor in a DRAGONS peak.

i just had a dream magic giant looked like!!! it was a freakin' fairy in my dream! white body with purple wings! Lol

Yeah, you've done something to your URL - you've got the shortened version that's used for display (for whatever reason) that misses out half of the link. If you can provide a working link to the page, I'll be happy to add all the information to the first post.

i really hope that they actually sell the sidekicks this time instead of putting them in chips.

^yes^
