Some of you need to be more observant. The website that is linked with the first post has Winterfest Lob Star for €14.99 and the Trap 8 Pack for €39.99. Since those are the same prices at most stores here in America, one could assume that the American price of these packs could match, as well. Also, they do not sell products based on conversion rates. It has to do with price points based on supply and demand. Wages factor into demand. When I traveled in Europe many years ago, in some cities a McDonalds value meal was as much as $14 or as little as $2, when using conversion rates.

I was looking at your German site, myskylanders, and the way I see it to keep it the same price as the other Adventure Packs is actually quite simple.
If anyone else is paying attention, listen closely because I am going to explain only once.
If it's to remain the normal $29.99 like the other packs, both would contain the following:
The level (Midnight Museum/Sunscraper Spire)
The core figure (Blackout/Spotlight)
And the traps, in place of the usual magic items.

1 core=$10
3 traps=$15
The level=$5 (estimated cost)

Subtotal before tax=$30
Now, class, any questions?



Euro =/= US dollar
If it's to be sold at 30 euros, i don't think they would also sell it at 30 dollars.


Actually, with Skylanders, it is.

All the US prices get almost precisely converted in euros.

A Core that costs 9.98$ will cost approximately 9.98€.

That's why I check this forum so much, for prices, because they are practically the same. smilie

Off topic but I need help.

Do the packs contain A trap master, a core, a adventure piece and two traps?

If so I'm asking for both for Christmas as my only gifts.


As of now we are only sure about the Trap Masters.
The Adventure Pieces are highly probable, though.

Nothing else is confirmed.



Is this confirmed, or just guessing? And if it was confirmed, source?

Yes, it was.

On myskylanders you can see that the "Elemental Packs" contain at least the Light and Dark Trap Masters.

By precisely converted i take it you mean "drop the euro sign and add a dollar sign" because if you were to precisely convert 1 euro, you'd get $1.23.

Oh, and, apparently, myskylanders also confirmed that the Packs will come with the Light and Dark traps (only the exclusive molds, the Spider and the Hawk).

So it's 30$/€ for a Trap Master, the Adventure Piece and an exclusive trap. Worth the price, to me.

I know, Drek. Awesome, isn't it? You knock off not only getting the Trap Masters for the gates, but also the next 2 chapters plus the traps to capture the Super villains.
$30 is a sweet deal considering what you get.
I'm getting these even though I had already preordered the Trap Masters. if I get the two I had already ordered then I got 2 of each for both their paths. If not, these packs are even better.

Yep. Luminous & Nightshade are also special.
But that still leaves only 2 traps for each element, so they need a third if the unique traps are for Luminous (Hawk) & Nightshade (Spider).
You need 3 traps for the 3 minor light villains, and 3 for the 3 minor dark villains. They got it partially covered with 2 each. So they need to come up with a third trap for each one

The packaging looks empty, but the figure, trap, and Spire all look beyond better than anything I could have hoped for. Now if only we got a fair price on it...

Well, in my opinion 30$/€ isn't a bad price at all, considering that you get a new level, the possibility to play as all the Dark villains, and a new Trap Master that will let you open Dark Elemental Gates. smilie

Oh, wait.

So they aren't the same thing?

Action Packs contain the Adventure Pieces, while the Elemental Packs contain at least a Trap Master and possibly the Cores...?
