Power A Trap Storage Box up on TRU.com

Since no one will post pics, I'll post some indepth pics tomorrow.

The back of the box advertises that it has 46 named slots, yet some of those are still unmarked. I don't get how were supposed to organize the light and dark elements if they don't have slots in the box.

Honestly, I wish They didn't keep the light and dark elements a secret so we could have completed trap storage boxes (whether it's the Power A version or one in the starter pack).

So, there are ???? on some of the traps? Freaking lame. We're paying for an organizational tool that can't be fully used because of THEIR marketing blunders.

I'm wondering if the final version will have all the slots filled in and the image we've seen is just a place holder.

Pretty sure it's final. Why keep major bits of information about the game secret if it's going to be ALREADY RELEASED by the time this is in stores?! It's like Activision/TFB has their own special logic that differs from ours.

Got my blinds open and waiting... anxiously... despite the fact those "Mystery" slots are still going to be labeled "Mystery."

I was so hoping to organize my traps somehow. However, with wanting to keep the Light and Dark elements a secret, we won't be able to label which of the Dark and Light enemies are in which trap. smilie

I will snap pics as soon as it arrives. Just waiting on USPS.

Sorry for the double post, but it goes without saying, they should have at least made an envelope titled "Spoilers" in the Trap Storage box, which contained the stickers with the new elements on them, so you could fill out the box as you saw fit.

It's about thinking ahead... :/

Sorry about the pictures, Photobucket wasn't cooperating with me.

Here's a pic of the unknown slot:

Here's a pic of the inside (sorry for the awful quality):

I'll try to take better pics in a few hours, but GameMaster will probably beat me to it. xP

Well, I don't have a trap, so that's a plus on your side. I assume the box can shut properly with that trap inside?

Sucks about those mystery slots, though. Now that means if we buy Light and Dark traps, we have to memorize which one holds which enemy.

Not really. Someone could try to find the font they use and just print some name tags with the real color, and a picture if we ever get artwork of them.It's a shame Acti isn't doing that themselves, but if people actually use the box that's a way of fixing it.

Ya, I plan on making my own stickers to go overtop of those mystery spots. Simple task, just sucks that the creators didn't do it for us

It is kind of strange that the top picture does not match up with the trap holder area.

that's not the point. if the product's purpose is to organize the complete collection, then this is a FAIL.

It does match, you can't see the last line though

I don't see fail. I see all the holes for traps that someone needs to organize them. If a name tag for 1/8 of them makes a product a fail for you, it's your opinion. For me it's just too overpriced when it's so simple and made of cardboard, but it still looks nice.

Like they do with skylanders, the light and dark traps (assuming the holes are for them) may get stickers to put on the box.

I'm feeling better about this box after reading about the upcoming TRU sale for launch. I actually combined my trap box purchase with a friend to qualify for the free shipping, so we are going to take them in and price match them on launch day during that BOGO 50% off sale. So each of our boxes will only cost $14.99 when we split the savings. smilie

Of course it's my opinion. Just like it's your opinion that it's ok to print something out because the product can't accomplish what it set out to do....organize ALL traps.

Can anyone here who already owns the box confirm, that it's made of real wood? The ones at gamescom were unopened so I couldn't really feel it.

MatteoMax confirmed in post # 43 that it is, in fact, cardboard.
