Im really torn between getting Magna Charge or Hoot Loop tomorrow (Finally getting my first swappers!~) along with Free Ranger. Free Ranger I know for certain I'll get, but I'm leaning towards Hoot Loop since Magna Charge does come in a double pack with Rattle Shake (I'll need all 4 swappers from wave 1, but I can only get two....)

Definitely Hoot Loop, because the teleporting really comes in handy.

The way you rationalised it sounds great. Out of the pack I loved hoot loop. As you level them free ranger is a beast!

Thanks guys, I was hoping for Hoot Loop. Too bad Im not getting the game until later though, oh well, better to be ready to 100% it right?

While. I may be too late, I say Magna Charge. He can hurl enemies out of the arena and can use a devastating blaster.

However, everyone with the "Charge" bottom looks very weird...

I'm not big on Hoot - it feels like a weaker Double Trouble, but on that same token, Magna take some work to be effective.

Loop takes work to be effective as does charge.

Loop's teleporting noise cna get 'grating' if used alot. My wife won't let me use it when she's in the room hahaha


Hoot Ranger though is a lot of crowd control...hypnotize far away things and as they get close, turn on ranger's spin. Upgraded you can even get a nice damage blast on 'start' with ranger. Sounds pretty effective to me.

Magna Ranger doesn't seem as effective as Hoot Ranger. However, you can shoot your gun till it overheats, then teleport away or towards someone while it's cooling

Free Loop - the name sounds cool smilie - teleporting blast might knock 'away' some of the bad guys, so I'm not sure how well it will gel with Free's melee attacks

Free Charge - I've used a decent amount myself. It's pretty effective - say there is a life punk, you can grab him and effectively take him out of an area with tough bad guys to make it easier. The movement speed is good too, so you can slash all day long (personally I think it looks cool too - though I have Legendary Free and Nitro Charge, so the golds/yellow 'work' together to add to the look)

Honestly, I'd question how you have fun playing and go from there. If you want to slash and beat up stuff - I'd go with Magna Charge. If you want to control and dominate the stuff around you I'd go with Hoot Loop.

Some more food for thought - I don't know how many figures you want/plan to get - but I have a 'hunch' that Hoot Loop will work better with more of the yet released characters. I've got the wave 2 swappers and loop works well with Fire Kraken and Boom Jet. Magna Charge helps Boom a bit, Night, and Grilla. so maybe you could look at other figures you want down the line and use that to help plot who you get *shrug*

^Im getting Magna Charge regardless, but just not today, I'll see if I find the double pack with him and Rattle Shake at a later point. All the swappers Im getting are to 100% the game. Rubble Rouser, Stink Bomb, Hoot Loop, Magna Charge, Free Ranger, Rattle Shake, Wash Buckler, Blast Zone to get everything possible and Spy Rise because he's just that cool

I'm a collector. And like you said, magna charge does come in a 2pk. I picked Enchanted Hoot Loop because its a variant but I really want to get the normal version as well because of the color of his clothes. I like that red/purple color. Just because you decide on one now doesn't mean you cant get more later. Just pick! smilie

The best thing about Magna Charge is that he can actually magnetically drag or grab any enemies who use three rotating purple shields to protect themselves for physical attacks.

Free Ranger can do that too. After this thread, I played a bit of Hoot Ranger in Arena, and I would spin armored guys and then hypnotize them to death
