I'll let you in one a little secret I learned from Vicarious Visions recently. That purple is Rattle Shake's NEW Soul Gem =)

He basically become encased in skin of poison, that poison takes damage that enemies deal to you for a while until it comes off. Then he is naked and restores his regular skin back.

I thought his soul gem was revealed back in one of skylanderkids' videos. But I like how the Soul Gem will play out.

"I was invited at the launch of Activision in Munich and could allude to the German version, and try out the new figures. Abolut the hammer, finally a real HD Engine. Films but I could not so I see even a small part of what was then standing around. Various other characters were during the test."

(Google translate is a bit arse)

This guy is press, these aren't the figures he owns - this is from Activision's HQ in Germany.

I know for a matter of fact that there are people from Germany on the forum... So... Yeah, very likely. Either way, it doesn't really matter - the games earliest release is in a week, and there's plenty of English speaking press that have already revealed pretty much all their is to know until the game comes out.

Just had my first swap at GameStop!!!!!!!!!

I've already looked at all my local stores... no swap force news or demo yet. My stores never get the good stuff, you guys are lucky

Scratch's figure in HD:



Her claws and "eyes" are translucent.

^Very nice! Kinda reminds me of Hot dog!

Scratch just has such a nice SSA/SG 'classic' vibe and I love it. Not that there's anything wrong with the other SSF Skylanders, just Scratch has that particular look about her.
Though with the translucent bits, I imagine she'll be a top choice for a Lightcore version for the next game or the next or you get the point.

I will never love THAT MASK. Gameplay looks fun but THAT MASK

her mask reminds me of Egypt type theme

Agreed.

i like Scratch's attacks and her "body" but the mask bugs me too

I just don't feel that the colors mesh well with her...just my opinion of course. I can't believe I'm saying this but I actually hope for a variant to Scratch LOL

I get that, but then why make her Purple or pink with green claws and then Slap a horrific gold mask on her?
I'd like a Phantom of the opera version. that'd look cool

I actually like the gold mask. I'm not a cat person but I think she looks great...Now where's my Tiger Skylander?

The guy from the video was at Activision Ismaning (Munich) and yes, this is not his collection. He doesn't provide any new information.

Scratch's figure in HD:

I just don't get one thing. Why does Scratch eyes look pitch black in both her figure and her artwork, but look blue and shiny in-game?
I overall think that with this game they were kinda... Superficial, with the character look.
Another example is Dune Bug horns, wich looks asimmetric in-game and in his figurine, but looks identical in his artwork.
Or Rattle Shake chin, that looks different in his figurine and artwork to how he looks like in-game.
They are not BIG mistakes, but since I pay a lot of attenction to the aesthetic, they just make me a little bit annoyed.

Trap shadow looks like a sabre tooth tiger.

For me he does too, not too exited about his gameplay though...

I love his gameplay I always wanted a Skylander who controls the shadows. I think he is actually a wolf

Yeah, and Dune Bug is a giraffe.

How so? I don't remember Gamestops getting demo stations for any game.

Either you have no idea what a wolf looks like or you one of those people who are nuts for wolves. Trap Shadow is either some type of bear or feline.

no its a sable tiger !

He isnt a wolf nor a bear. He is a cat- like creature. A panther or a jaguar.

the thing is, if he's a Cat type creature, why does he have BEAR TRAPS? It would make sense if he was a bear and had those though.

Quote: myskylanders

Well, actually he could be. Here is the giraffe weevil.

Just joking. He was probably inspired by the dung beetle.

On topic: I think Trap Shadow is a panther.

This doesnt prove anything.It would make sense but he doesnt look like a bear in ANY way.

Well, using that logic, Chill, who can summon a narwal, it would make sense if she was a narwal.

or Stealth Elf who can change into a tiger, then she's a tiger too

Also, I got to play a demo of SSF at the mall last night and have a few things to confirm.

There is a fox like character named Rufus.

You buy the hats from the previous games from a hippo in Woodborrow

There is an upgrade plant pod in Woodborrow, which is run by a Rhino Camel thing who's obsessed with being fit (Saying every time you upgrade, your getting closer to body perfection)

Flynn's ship makes a cameo and it's being repaired.

You can read a Skylander's bio in the Skylander collection section.

Wash Buckler quotes: "Sailing Ahead"(When opening a gate) "Where's my pirate hat?" (Putting on a hat) "Your ship has sailed" (After winning a battle.

I agree he doesn't look like a bear. Also, they have a bear, zou lou, and I doubt they'd have two in one generation.
I'm just trying to understand the creators process to give a cat bear traps. The other things everyone gladly exampled made sense as to why they have those attacks.
