That would be kind of scary. You, disconnected from your Skylander, not being able to help them...

I want a Lightcore Sunburn...but I guess they won't be happening this game since they will all be in racing type uniforms

It'd fit too, since the story is a bit more serious this time around with Kaos actually winning, likely teaming up with past villains and having certain kingdoms join him so they can survive.

Not sure if we can't see anything at all, since Kaos implies your POV is still the TV. But a scripted sequence where your Skylander has to act on its own when the connections get too severed for a time would be pretty nice and scary. Maybe even it could alternate between the AI and you in an unstable area.

Do you guys think sunburn,ghost roaster,and wham shell have a chance of getting in as superchargers since we haven't seen anyone from there element?

Who cares, it won't be Sunburn + Wow Pow...it will be 'another' bird with a flamethrower and Harley boots :arazz:

Literally.

Also, it kinda went over my head, but I'm not sure I like the new announcer. The one in SF already sounded dead, and this one is the other extreme almost shouting his lines.

I think he only gets extreme when talking about the vehicles. It's supposed to be like one of those car showcases where the announcer yells about how great the car is.

Is the trailer we've seen the final one? I hope we have another one which is more traditional showcasing more of the team.

It feels more like a trailer/informational for the biker dude than for a Skylanders game.

All games had plenty of trailers,this is just the 'debut' one, sort of. We'll get an Overview one soon most likely.

I just got a tweet from JP Karliak (Wolfgang's VA) that seems to confirm that he's still under a non-disclosure agreement, but he's really excited to announce whatever it is.

If he's really excited about it, maybe, JUST maybe, Wolfgang became a Supercharger?

Well, we'll see. He didn't do a whole lot of VA work on videogames, he might be voicing someone else in the game as well.

Unless it's a Skylander, I don't see what's so exciting about voicing an NPC. I'm hoping it's Wolfgang in some form. He's my favorite villain next to Scrap Shooter.

Which is what I said,we haven't seen him voice a whole lot of characters(and the only big one is Mighty Number 7 which we have yet to see, and all we know is that he'll probably have some inspiration from Zero/Protoman). He could also be voicing another villain.

Any chance you can let us know when you can talk about any involvement with Skylanders Superchargers?

Quote: JP Karliak

Hey, [Wolfgang]! I'll just say when my VO was announced for @MightyNo9 I was ALL about talking it up. But I had to wait for the go ahead.

Seems like whoever he's voicing also shows up late in the game then.

Also, I might be going offtopic of the news for a small second, but another reason for me to hope that the Cloud Kingdom theme isn't reused? I remembered a song from Rayman Legends(no,not One-Eyed Harpist, the franchise isn't at the time to lose its shame yet) and now I just want a Greece-inspired song from Lorne Balfe, considering what he did to other stuff like middle eastern and dubstep.

He simply said that when he had a role in Mighty No9 he really wanted to talk about it, a lot, but had to wait until he had the authorisation.

Yes, and in the context of being a reply to my question, I think it implies that he's in a similar situation in this case, regarding Skylanders.

Ah, thank you both!

I actually wouldn't be that surprised if he did. He would fit 100% with the theme.

I want that so much,
but anyone else here about those 8 extra figures?
7 DR's + Pain-Yatta, 8 Extras, No Traps, doesn't take rocket science

Guys, bear with me here, but... What if they just haven't decided?

There's less Light and Dark characters on the poster than there are characters of all other elements. What if they haven't decided whether they're making 4 all new characters or 2 new and 2 returning? They did say there would be 20 total, yet there are 18 on the poster (excluding the mysterious things). The poster hasn't been posted as official, so, shocker, it's probably a placeholder. Meaning they could still be deciding what to do with L&D and that's why different people have given different answers.

I see 20 on the poster not counting the mysterious things
The 2 columns on each side and 4 at the top with one side having a bright color and the other side a dark shade to it.

I'm more curious to see what would happen if you put a Supercharger Stealth Elf into Spyro's Adventure, Giants, Swap Force, and Trap Team. Would she be incompatible, or act as a Series 1, 2, 3, and 3 (or Eon's Elite) respectively.

I doubt it...because the older Stealth Elf's arn't SuperChargered...im sure all the older figures will load like they do in the older games...and have there old attack move sets.

Wolfgang she would do like the new figures do when they are put in the older games...would get the "Speical" tag.

Is anyone else disappointed that cards/stickers that usually come with the figures aren't returning? They weren't mentioned in the starter pack description nor shown in product images like in previous titles, so I'm assuming they are finished with?

Lets hope not...I like the cards.

No, there's half the Light and Dark characters compared to the other elements. The other elements each have two sections; both with a SuperCharger and a vehicle. However, Light and Dark both only have one. My guess is that they're the new SuperCharger and their vehicle. I think they're still deciding whether to bring back Spotlight and Blackout or to just make four new LD SuperChargers.

Again considering we know it is 20 20 (THIS IS FULLY CONFIRMED BY MULTIPLE SOURCES) it is showing them, what you see as "vehicles" are not portraits for vehicles but skylanders (the new supercharger and the supercharged revamp)

I meant what will be on the character poster (from box screenshot)

And besides that poster leak is so tiny its no real reason to even talk about it till we get to see a larger pic of it...it has been confirmed theres only 20 Syklanders an 20 vehicles. Two of each Element, half revamped reposed Skylanders, half new Skylanders and 20 new vehicles...thats it.

Everyone is talking about this poster legendaryfabo.

No, I don't think any revamped SuperCharger would show up as his/her regular counterpart in older games and absolutely nor will S1 of SuperChargers have the new look in this game.

They keep saying these are "brand new characters, not S4 or 5 but actually reimagined" so much that I would feel insulted and it would seems embarassing if they acted as reposes in older games.
They cannot sell them as "brand new" and at the same time make them act as reposes.
If they do then I will wipe out the last doubts I have about this whole idea and consider all these "SuperChargers" as a clever way to sell more reposes.

Now, speaking about Light and Dark.
I don't know if I wrote it here but remember that last year the site and the interviews all confirmed "18 new Cores and 16 Trap Masters".
And all the Light and Dark characters "were there" even if their pictures were obscured or absent.

Also think about High Five, Flip Wreck and Bat Spin images on the full poster when we leaked it.

You didn't write it here, but I did. I also have nine guesses as to what will happen for Light/Dark. I posted them earlier.

Here is my earlier list:

Well the idea is that there will be 10 new characters and 10 returning ones. That means that there are several possibilities for Light/Dark returning characters:
1. Spotlight and Blackout will return (likely)
2. Knight Light and Knight Mare will return (unlikely)
3. Knight Light/Blackout will return (very unlikely)
4. Knight Mare/ Spotlight will return (very unlikely)
5. They will bring back two different older charcters whose elements have changed to Light/Dark (not that likely)
6. They will turn two NPCs into Skylanders as Light/Dark characters (not that likely)
7. They got they're numbers wrong and the poster is correct, being that there will only be one new character of Light/Dark (likely)
8. There will be two new completely brand new Skylanders for Light, and two for Dark. (likely)
9. It could be a combination of some of these. (possible)

I`m going with 1, 7, or, 8. If the numbers are right, then 1. If there are 8 reposes and not 10, then 8. If the poster is correct, then 7, which is my best guess.

There's a nice summary video from SkyDad on their channel

No. You're completely wrong.

There are two boxes for each element. Any old idiot could see that there is only one for Light and one for Dark. Each box either has a SuperCharger and its corresponding vehicle or the two SuperChargers and the two vehicles. It has been confirmed that the vehicles are on the poster, so I don't know what you're talking about when you say I'm seeing SuperChargers instead of vehicles.
