^Arbo toy prototype. Looks like they are showing toy prototypes there too.

^ Yes, it's just the same prototype one that we saw earlier with the first game:




Edit: Whoops, Aura beat me to it; sorry about that.

Next to that thumpback sidekick...Is that an Eye-Brawl sidekick?

Fry says:"I don't know if that's so cool.....Or super creepy."

And BTW has anyone noticed that these sidekicks have green bases? why is that?

I would like to take a brief moment to go off topic and wish a happy birthday to CAV, Cuzzberry, Cynder11577, cynderdarkangel, FFM1994, hannaxolsen1337, Malefor0001, Phoenix Dragons, Pinkdesi101, WarriorLuv345 and... ME.

To all of you I present you with... A party related equine:



Now get back on topic.

Happy burfday!

walmart is getting the glow in the dark cynder.

Anyone else notice that the price for the Pirate Seas adventure pack has been cut (by about a buck) on walmart's, targets, and TRU's websites but none of the other adventure packs have?

This was found in another topic.

This is a great find and I'm going to pre-order the Wii starter pack with exclusive GITD Cynder and GITD Portal of Power at my local Walmart store

There may still be store exclusives that we dont know about. Thumpback is rumored to be an exclusive to a store, while it seems on the back of the giant's packages, Eye Brawl may also be exclusive somewhere.

Really..... Thumpback will not be exclusive, or we would have heard about it by now. Don't go of what people say unless there is proof

Yeah, that's what you'd think... except we just heard about Walmart exclusive GITD Cynder in America only hours ago. It's less than three weeks until the game releases, I can't believe they'd wait this long to announce it.

Well then everything's filled up. Ther eis no room for an exclusive becaus all the main stores have exclusives:

Target- Granite Crusher
GS/EB- GDC battle pack
Walmart/SAMs Club- GITD Cynder
Tru-Legwndary figures
There is no room so people stop saying he will be exclusive he won't be.

To be fair, Best Buy hasn't announced their exclusive yet.

Not sure where to put this:

On the 17th ToysRus Au, are having a Giants event, I know our store is (Moore Park). With Arts and crafts and soe fun things to do, also the first 100 kids to arrive get a free Skylander, no idea which skylander but you get a free one.

if it's a rare one or soething i'll be annoyed, I can't get one as i' staff ;-;

^ cool, thanks for letting us now, I'll ring my local one up to see if they are doing it too (it's an hour away)

I'll let you in on a secret, I have just had my leave application accepted so I am now officially free to galavant around on the day to go to whatever stores I feel like.

I do not live locally to a TRU but that will be my first port of call. TRU Oz have made no mention of the SG Legendary 3 pack or Megabloks but I figure it is worthwhile checking. I already have Leg Bouncer pre-ordered there.

The 12GB PS3 in the Uk has a skylanders bundle which comes with an Exclusive Blue tree rex.

3 pack not sure, but we are getting Megablocks, I checked a month or so ago, not sure when though, if I remember and have time i'll check sunday..we're also getting WoW megablocks too...not sure how wellthat will sell though now.

EB Games already have WoW Megbloks packs in stock. I also know that they will get the SG ones in as they made a point of mentioning/showing them at EB Games.

I am sure that TRU Oz will get the Leg 3 pack in TRU Oz sooner or later but I would obviously like sooner rather than later.

More IOS Skylanders games on the way!

Well, the second Battle Pack I ordered was called back by Toys R Us. I e-mailed asking why (obviously we all know the reason why but I wanted to hear it from them) and they wouldn't tell me. All the person said was they can't reship the products and offered me 20% off on a future order. I'm a little disappointed but at least I have one set.

Hey guys, What's this next to thumpback?: http://imageshack.us/a/img338/1162/cpavatar.jpg

No clue, maybe red Ninjini?

^ I was wondering that too - I'm thinking that it's a prototype Ninjini or alternate Ninjini figure.

From what I can tell, I think its a Ninjini prototype with her swords in the air...?

I thought it was ignitor but it was bigger.

Ha. Anyways, I got some news about commercials AGAIN, and the only people who may have seen this is gravity falls watchers.

Disney Channel supports S:G.

New Update to the Skylanders Website, all the characters now say their catchphrase when you open up their character page. Also, Lightcore Jet-Vac says available 11-25-12 in the bottom right corner, I'll check the other characters aswell.

^ Interesting, thanks a lot for informing us

^ Interesting, thanks a lot for informing us

No problem, glad I could help out.

Odd... none of the other pages are loading except for Lightcore Jet-Vac and the text on Lightcore Eruptor's page (which ironically was the second one I clicked)

There a Eye Brawl Sidekick next to the Thumpback sidekick!



Edit: On the website when you click on the Skylanders and Giants the say the catch phrases, so now you can here them say it without watching their video

let's call him Eye Sock.

Just so you guys know, I was finally able to pre-order the Goldenfire Dragon Cannon Battle Pack Thing in Canada. I'm in British Columbia, and I was able to pre-order it,, and it was 28 dollars. So now when I go to EBGames on launch day, I'm guaranteed my battle pack and one of the three Giants. A good head-start.

Is there anyone recording videos at the EB Games Expo tmrw? Just asking though I don't know if there is a topic for this

A Best Buy manager told me they had the toys in the back. He went and brought out Chill and Swarm but wouldn't let me take a picture. Oh how I wanted them!

wow you're right! it looks so cute.

The boxes on the Giants are a lot bigger and bulge out more. I think we'll have a hard time displaying them.

Camo- Italian!
Wham-Shell- NICELY DONE!
Sunburn- Make it sound like a teenage boy.
Warnado- GOOD BOY BOBBY!

Well we can
LoOk forward to wave 2 coming n a month after the release. If they release a wave during Christmas time I'm a gonna slap them.

im not sure if someone has posted this yet but any way http://www.thehdroom.com/news/...nto-Focus/11368

this site shows a list of exsclusives

oh yeah, not sure if mentioned, but I saw at EB games australia had a free skylanders height chart for skylanders giants if you pre-orderded there.

I was thinking. Do you think they would re-release the Legendary Skylanders, but in their series 2 pose? Like Legendary Series 2 Spyro, Bash, Chop Chop and Trigger Happy? I don't think they will, but it's still a thought.

If they do they had better repose Dark Spyro as well.

Proto Tech Giant? Notice the base is not orange but yellow, you can tell it's not green because S1 Stealth Elf is next to it and the colors are different:

Whatever that is in the middle, I want it!
