This topic can be used for any early information you would like to share eg: Poster images and Villains. Considering your country is the first to get the game I thought some people like me would want to see some of the information.

Well, in my city they weren't allowed to put the packagings on shelves ... yet.

I'll be getting the game in like 17-18 hours and giving it a good play through for a few hours. I'll post anything interesting i find

Sure thing

I'm not completely sure if the poster that comes with the game is even finished, the trap storage box they were selling at TRU wasn't finished.

I believe it was confirmed that it would not come with the complete poster. But I figure they will be in the game files.

Anyways for those of you getting it here's what we (or at least me) want to see. Pictures of all the Traps and their special names, clear shots of the adventure packs, the mystery Skylanders, the Mystery Villains, all the Variants, and anything else you find that's interesting

Those are the exact reasons why I made this topic.

not exactly sure where i'm supposed to find information on the mystery Skylanders or the un-announced variants, but i'll answer as many questions as i can, in about 13 hours time.

I think they expect you to decrypt the games files

I don't expect that. They may be in the game. If they arn't, then we may have to wait a bit longer for a hacker to crack open the game files.

Anyways, is anyone going to a midnight release in Australia?

i don't think anywhere is doing one, no where near me anyway

I don't think we are having a midnight release..usually just for Pokemon or COD..

What about whatever the Australian version of Walmart? They aren't doing one?

Big W has never done any kind of release for anything at midnight, always just normal trading hours, about 9-5:30 I believe.

i think the closest to Walmart that Australia has is the 3 big chain department stores, Kmart, Target and Big W, though none have any affiliation to anything in the US, Kmart and Target are owned by ColesMyer and Big W is Woolworths. They don't do big midnight releases of anything.

The two Toys R Us stores local to me don't even stock skylanders, so no chance there.

I can confirm both the trap holder you get with the game and the poster have the same ? On them besides the frito lays 3

My EBgames
Exclusive trap box will be here tomorrow then I'll confirm if they have ? (It's different to the Amazon or TRU boxes)

I should have posted a picture of my trap storage box, EB games had it a week ago and let me take it early! I just went to target and bought all the minis they had available, the trap masters and one adventure pack (the one with Blades) i'll take photos when I finish work and get the rest of the game! (in about 8 hours!)

min8or, any news?

^ we're all too busy playing the game

i won't be posting any photos, sorry, i don't have a digital camera at the moment.

the poster still has the 4 [?] on it as well as the the ones in the villains section.

the dark/light elements don't show up in the menu.

i'll write out a list of the trap names in a couple of minutes, going to finish the first level first.

Fair enough. Can you confirm if the mystery villains are in the vault?

there is only pictures of 38 villains in the vault, the 8 question mark ones from the poster are missing.
the count says x/46 though.

Hmm. OK, can we have the list of the traps now?

I went to three stores today after picking up my Dark Starter Pack. EB Games (or at least my store) was a little limited but they had a lot of traps. JB Hi-Fi had a lot more stock and Kmart hadn't put any on shelves yet, despite they had Disney Infinity 2.0 on day one.

EB and JB both didn't have Minis, anywhere. EB Games says a lot of people have been asking about them, but they didn't get them in.

the minis are exclusive to Target.

I have discovered that some of traptanium weapons are quite sharp and torch's limbs are flimsy. Plus the trap masters boxes are terrible to open.

Both my Jawbreaker and L jaw breaker had 2 stat cards in them.

Plus tfb have a fantastic job on the wii.

I agree to torch's flimsy limbs!
I took a photo of my trap storage box. let me know if you want pics of anything else

does anyone else think the portal has a bit of a delay/lag..?
or is it just me?

Mines fine what system are you on?

Is there a blue holder in the Dark Starter Pack? Anyways looks nice. Can't wait to see what it looks like when it's full.

I'm on PS3. it's only sometimes, not all the time

Urgh. They said it wouldn't be.

Well, this is insulting. My closest Target is hours away, and my Mum HATES driving there.

I get that little bit of loading lag as well, only happens some of the time though, on PS4

Minis exclusive to Target? In the US?

Cool. Are there any exclusions from other versions?

No, Target australia and interesting fact our k mart and target aren't affiliated with the US chain of stores.
