Has there been any news on the Walmart-exclusive Spyro portal? It almost feels like Mega dropped off the face of the earth lately.

There hasn't been any news since the buyout and leaks. Their fan involvement has gone downhill since Brad from Mega Bloks left and they stopped having an official rep in this thread.
I've been advertising for them for almost 2 years now, so it's a bit disheartening they still haven't contacted me back yet. In fact, the only news we have is a list of the new sets from ToyWiz saying they will ship in July. There's also the matter of certain sets like Fire Viper Attack and Frost Guard Battle Arcade being online only, with sets like Evil Airship never showing up at all. Plus, y'know, been waiting a year for that Prism Break release they promised. I've been very nice and patient with Mega Bloks. Really hoping they get their act together or I may have to stop working on these Mega Bloks threads. |

I wouldn't be surprised if they're slowly phasing them out. At the very least, most stores in the UK have stopped selling them, and many discount stores have been selling them at about a quarter of the RRP. They've received a lot of low reviews in terms of quality, unfortunately.
I myself have given up on collecting them for the most part, mainly because I'm tired of the US exclusives. |

So I found the Viper Attack set at a Toys R Us Express for $13. I thought it was a Walmart exclusive? I wasn't complaining though, never did find the other version of Pop Fizz and Hoot Loop is pretty cool, too.

Just started to find some of the Series 3 battle portals at a Target near me. Picked up the Stump Smash one (13 pieces if you wished to update that info). as well as 1 of the last 2 Ultimate Battle Arcades on clearance. I have also seen a Trigger Happy dart gun but with Swap Force verbiage and green coloring on the package.

So, we should finally be getting a regular version of Night Shift now, and we're definitely going to get Snap Shot this year (if release goes ahead as usual)
I'm not sure what else is coming as the line-up of sets and their contents have slightly changed. |

Oh, great! Thank God that they're releasing more Spinners. I just hope that either Doom Stone or Spy Rise get Mega Blok-ified versions of themselves.
And I REALLY hope that they didn't scrap Krypt King altogether.

Brand new video showcasing the many pieces of merchandise for Trap Team, including a look at the next Mega Bloks sets. Food Fight, Night Shift, another Trigger Happy (S4? Maybe?) and Snap Shot are completely confirmed.

Easily my favorite set so far. Ehh, Shrednaught looks so so, but the troll is completely incorrect. Food Fight looks great. Snap Shot looks way too bulky. How exactly does he fit into the spinner?

Not too impressed with the line-up, not enough new characters, and no more females At least give us that troll in a different colour!
I don't think that's the whole line-up though, hopefully there's more. Here's another; |

Does anyone know if ANYWHERE in the UK actually sells Skylanders Megabloks? At least anything past the first wave. I never even found any battle packs after the initial four.

Okay, after looking through some online listings I think we're just waiting on one more set.
Quote: Nroc-Nuika
Online is your best option, and best price too. Between Amazon, Woolworths and Very you can find most of the newer sets (bar exclusives). If you want the new smaller stuff like the Battle Packs, Battle Portals and the Spinners, try Boots and Asda. That's where I've been getting all my stuff from and I've got the majority of the line. The only stuff I've had to import is Prism Break's Battle Portal and Fire Viper Attack. |

Anyone in the US who wants Prism Break should apparently check out Tuesday Morning as there has been sightings of him there!
Quote: Matteomax
Me too, but now that Snap Shot has his own spinner and the figure pack with Wallop is (as far as I'm aware) gone, I imagine those two figures might have found their way to the final set. It's the most expensive out of the wave, so it would make sense that there's two new figure molds in the set. |

..Is that the Tower of Time? Or that one other new set.
Great, why release L-Spyro and Triggs again? Wasn't L Trigg's battle portal a big enough shelf warmer? And, if my eyes are correct, they're fighting a Crystal Red Evilized Pirate Greeble. I might get this set anyway, just because of L-Stealth and L-Bash.

So, I'm really confused. I've been trying to find information on the new sets and apparently the set that was called Pirates Cove, is now called Adventure Map? That's according to amazon.de anyway:
http://www.amazon.de/Mega-Blok...r/dp/B00J05MAQI Most of the sets seem to have different names on different sites, but still retain the same set number. So I have no idea what's correct and what's not. In other news, here's some pictures of some of the new figs: |

MB have updated their website with all of the new sets (bar exclusives) -
http://www.megabloks.com/en-gb...ock_types=small Some things I noticed; - Snap Shot and Wildfire are 'Swappable' figures - There are 'mystery mini villain' figures in the larger sets. - Countdown's head is on a ball joint! - It says the sets won't be available in the UK... |

Between the delay in Skylanders and their silent cancellation of the WoW/Blizzard line, I haven't bought any in months.
