Ohh.. If LC don't work in S:SA, I'm not getting them. I want to be able to play as Prism Break S2 there because I don't have S1, same with Drobot and Hex.

But lightcores still have their S2 reposes.

I guess so. I was looking forward to LC Hex but after seeing how many complaints about how her arms fall off, I kinda think the S2 Figure will be better.

Lightcores have different poses to S2, but I'd be very surprised if the Lightcore version didn't work on S:SA.

It has been confirmed they don't.

is anyone else disapointed by the horrible packaging of the giant figures It looks really half-done and the layout doesn't match the other characters in the slightest.

actually it kind of reminds me of the packaging for the counterfet skylanders someone found a while back.

If you mean Bouncer's then yeah. The card really should be at the back.

A friend of mine in the UK was able to find out what figures they'll have for Wave 1 from a sheet from GAME:

» Skylanders - Battle Pack (Giants) Exclusive
» Skylanders - Triple Pack 2 (Giants) (Chill, Zook & Ignitor)
» Skylanders - Triple Pack 1 (Giants) (PopFizz, Trigger Happy & Whirlwind)
» Skylanders - Eruptor (Light Core)
» Skylanders - Prism Break (Light Core)
» Skylanders - Drobot (Light Core)
» Skylanders Giants - Bouncer
» Skylanders Giants - Swarm
» Skylanders Giants - Crusher
» Skylanders - Chill




The packs didn't look familiar to what was posted before, but maybe someone could confirm.

I thought the battle pack was exclusive to gamestop

In America it is.
In the UK, it's exclusive to GAME.

Yeaaaa

That is far too little for them to release. There isn't any series 2 in there, except for Chop Chop in the Battle Pack and Cynder in the Starter Pack.

Then, that also goes against Tigs "supposed" information about wave 1, which had a lot more to choose from.

If that was indeed wave 1, that's utterly pathetic on Activision's part. I won't say who is right or wrong with their info, but for the sake of having something to do on October 21st (19th for you UK folks), I hope Tigs "supposed" source is correct.

er, point me to my post where i stated what was in wave 1 ... i have NEVER stated what is in any wave. i did state that i have pre-orders placed for all items which is a totally different statement.

No single Series 2? I doubt this.

Quote: chaosworrier

I honestly can't understand half of that.

I'll break it down simply:

You state that two normal sized figurines do not fit on a 3DS portal.

Then why would they even bother trying to shrink down a Giant sized one when there is no way to fit them (according to you) on the portal, in the first place?

EDIT: I know what a fig roll is but they only seem to be a big thing in North America?

They are actually huge in Ireland,haven't you seen the 'How they get the figs in the fig rolls?' commercial

This means that of the new Skylanders and Giants- Sprocket, Flashwing, Fright Rider, Ninjini, HotHead, EyeBrawl and Thumpback will be in later waves along with all the other LCs and S2 guys.

Well that would still be over 1/3 of the figures available for Giants released at the beginning.

after looking at it properly these characters would make sense.

there are 48 characters available to collect and this is releasing 15 of them. there is at least 1 from each element which will allow all elemental areas to be accessed without waiting for the next wave.

it also makes sense financially for activision to be releasing the remodels in wave 1 triple packs with a new figure from an element that would otherwise be unable to be accessed.

Do you mean they wont light up with s:sa portal, or just wont light up when you put the ssa game disc in?

packaging on the lightcores shows them as not being compatible with ssa indicated by a (X)

When did Wave 2 come out for SSA? Before Christmas?

Wait quick question will the battleback be like darklight crypt and dragons peak that it will be exclusive one wave and no longer ex the next wave

Can you point me at a picture please, I haven't seen any of LightCore characters in their packaging.

Update: found it. thanks!

Well, wave 1 for the original skylanders had 16 characters I think, so I guess this is about right. Still, I think there should be more than this. There are too many old characters, and not enough of the new characters which are the ones that SHOULD be selling the game. If anything, this list of characters only makes me want to buy Bouncer, and play the rest of Giants with all my series one characters rather than buy anything new. Hopefully this isn't actually Wave 1.

We have seen everything on this list before making me think its a partial list but logically distribution does not make sense without anything else.

Do people think that the wave 1 singles are going to consist of a six pack of Chill. There is something wrong here.

I still expect everything on amazon leak out by Dec if not on release day. It is of note that this is the second supposedly confirmed list and every item on both were on the amazon leak list.

Just as a reminder 24/37 of the figures were out on release day last year

The pattern has always been each wave is about 60 to 80% rereleases with new figures thrown in. Everyone seems convinced tat this year all te figures are going to be evenly distributed this is not how they distribute their toys and if they changed format in this fashion wave 1 will be completely unavailable in two months. there will be about 30+ new figures on the shelves day one this is just how the company merchandises.

Well, we will see if that wave 1 list is correct based on what the Skylanders Facebook page updates with. They keep asking if we can't wait to get certain characters in October. They have mentioned Swarm and Chill for October. Let's see who else they mention.

Crusher Reveal! As usual, Yahoo Games gets the trailer first.

http://games.yahoo.com/video/s...-173740107.html

thats awesome thanks aura!

crusher looks ausome! i will definatley be getting him day 1.

i think its safe to say that crusher uses combo moves

Great find Aura! Crusher looks like one of the more melee Giants.

aura r u famous cause it looks like u r but great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

^Please speak proper english, I don't speak '1337 speek'...

Always planned to get Crusher upon the release of the game, still looks good none the less.

"I'm a smash hit!"

Ok this sets a foundation again. Four giants at release is good, but one new Skylander....... Umm no. I believe that there would be at least 3-4 new ones but chill seems to be one of them.

i like the fact that all the new characters say there catchphrases

Am I the only one who noticed the lack of Jet-Vac? They said everyone except Tree Rex will be in single packs, so he's not exclusive.

Don't forget there kind of are. Jet Vac, ShroomBoom, Pop Fizz and Chill then. I'm sure though, there will probably be singles of Shroomboom as well out.

Dunno about S2 characters, but I'd be willing to be there will bet a good amount of them out. Of course, I can't see them suddenly taking back all the stock thats out now so those characters (like Stealth Elf, Double Trouble, Stumpy, etc) will probably be out later in the release cycle while ones that aren't really on shelves right now will probably be out on release day.

Good news folks. I followed up on the LightCore characters not working in S:SA with a guy at Activision. He tested Prism Break LC on S:SA for me and the figure works as if it's a Series 1 Prism Break. There are many reasons they may have put the X on the packaging, he suggested a few, but doesn't know exactly why. Regardless, LC figures for original characters DO WORK in S:SA.

i think the wave seems a bit too small id think there would be at least three triple packs

lol, thanks wes ... gotta give them bonus points on this one for confusing potential customers

If they said it worked on SSA, then there would be people who would complain that it doesn't light up like it says on the package. ie. not a lightcore. I understand why they did it that way.

Crusher sounds like Optimus Prime.

And i love those battle cries.

I hope that is not Wave One. It just isn't enough. The list from Amazon would be much better.

And I hope this GAME exclusive Battle Pack is just a the GDC and not a new one otherwise it'll be ANOTHER thing Aus misses out on...

^ I think it was confirmed a while ago it was coming to EB games over here.
