I am interested for what Splats catchphrase will be..
She has a unique figure, i'm hoping for a unique catchphrase to.

I'm betting it has something to do with colors or paint.
Or maybe it'll be a direct reference to Splatoon considering how much VV loves Nintendo, who knows.

Well, she is a "Kid", technically speaking.

Wait what do you mean Bionichute?

Yeah I imagine her catchphrase will be related to paint.

A kid is the name for a young goat

She's not a squid now,but she's a kid now. I don't want to bring the dank memes into the thread but you'll need to know,Luminous.

People on Toys and Merch found preorders for the RC Toys. The pictures are too small to be much different from what we saw on Comic-Con though, it's really just Hot Streak and Crypt Crusher with giant waist-up figures.

Wait what's RC?

SO CONFUSED!

You know what we haven't seen yet? Skystones Overdrive! Seriously when will they show us what that is?

Considering they blocked it off the press builds(attempting to talk to Skystone players will trigger a 'X is not avaliable at this time' just like Vehicle Upgrades), not until release.

Remote Control cars were announced quite a while ago, myskylanders took a pictures of some mock packaging(remember Nitro and Hot Streak, etc etc?) but most people didn't notice it was even there.

Hm, new interview about the Gamescon build, with a new Activision PR guy. He brought a High Volt figure so if you guys want to see it live, after 2 minutes ish. He also says each vehicle has two sets of mods but considering Hot Streak has 4 I don't know if he counted default and Supercharged.
Traps will give the elemental boost to vehicles even without a villain.
He also kinda implies the old skylanders will be able to use Instant Hot Streak,aww yeah, it's enough confirm for me.

Someone get that guy a cup of water, but he's being so simple with words I'll take it over GB.

Little article I found

We found those before,dunno if it was posted here or in another thread.

But the fact Traps work without villains is interesting. Some people were speculating the Yawn Traps could be released with SC, and if they still function without being used in TT first,yeah that's possible.

at 3:40 into the video

Maybe he means two additional mod sets, Bifrost. We've already seen that Dive Bomber has around two different propellers that aren't part of it's Supercharged form.

Yeah they showed High Volt's toy form in the vid! I wish they showed gameplay..

Hey guys I have not been active in this thread since like page 55 or something but I am here now again!

Well,welcome back, latest thing is on-hand recording of High Volt from an interview; remember to not derail and keep slightly offtopic remarks to just a few exchanges.

Oh yeah, and Trap Team Comic Finale is coming out next week if the comic sites can be trusted this time. Rift into Overdrive comes out in the 2nd, I think, so we're going to get a good serving of plot. David A. Rodriguez has been saying in his twitter that the graphic novel will explain the connection between the games and as far as he knows it's coming out in the right date(though Ossio said the same for another and then delay for reasons even he didn't know).

Okey dokey!
Anything else on which four villains will be available with each trophy?
I know the main ones for each (-Kaos) are Golden Queen, Wolfgang, and...is the last one Conut Moneybone or Frightbeard?

Count Moneybone, it appeared in the online lobbies for the Gamescon build. Frightbeard is included with the Sea Trophy and has his own track.
We don't know the all main villains(there's more in footage),but judging from GD and Frightbeard,it might be tied to tracks that are on it.

They have trained the new guy well. He almost verbatim answered every question 100% to the letter that previous reps have discussed. Even down to the word "beloved" to describe the Nintendo characters.

I wonder if in the



Will have the Count Moneybone boss. I hope his boss music is the one from the 3ds version.

If he even makes as much of a CAMEO in the story mode I will unleash my ULTIMATE FAN SCREAM OF DOOOOM!

Never played 3DS, so this will be a "new" boss for me. Yay.

At the very least he'll be a racing boss, but I really hope he's a normal boss, and we know that a few racing villains will be regular bosses (EG. Cluck), so there's still a chance.

I really hope they keep his "Break in two" line.

Anxious to see what the stat sheets look like now if the cards are indeed gone. Hopefully they still equate to what was on the cards so they can still be put in an album as a visual reference "guide"/checklist along with the cards.

im sure by now they have a book they give to these new guys, haha...

Ya know, I think you're right. That and they probably train for days trying to get answers out of them to see if they slip. I also know they "train" the interviewers...always wonder why the same questions get asked?

i dunno if this has been talked about yet but you can now find the UFO Hat in game with Superchargers, skip to about 6:07
i wonder if the UFO hat card thing from swap force will do anything different in this game, probably not tho

The same questions aren't always asked, if so you haven't been seeing enough SC interviews. Other guys ask different questions often(especially the DS regulars) but GB always plays silly and answers something he wants instead or gives a non-answer(talking about how much work is put into the game is the most common). Yes, this guy was trained to PR like the rest,but he's much friendlier and will admit they can't answer something when it comes up, and be much more varied with words - as I said before, more welcoming,more casual, less GB or JC and more Lou and Reiche.

Meanwhile, some article about the racing aspect complaining about how the weapon mechanic is too unfair. I've watched more than enough to notice that dodging manuevers will remove the crosshairs from the person behind, at the point that you'll actually run into missed shots instead of being destroyed unfairly. If you go in a straight line like normal non-competitive MK of course you'll get hit by a secondary attack and eat dirt.


The UFO hat appears in nearly any level gameplay showing chests,not news for a long time.

i guess so

Let's not read anything but what we want to drag on and keep derailing the topic, yeah that's a great idea.

I'll say it again. Slow news day does not mean you can push whatever subject you want until news show up.

I'm getting excited for the 25th now, If that's the actual release date of the website being updated (that made sense) Then were gonna have A LOT to talk about. I think then we can make our final decisions.

"Generally speaking"....I acknowledge some interviewers (the chap from Germany stood out to me) actually don't do this. Each of the top heavyweights kinda do and kinda don't....but the average is right there with the same questions in these general sessions.

It's only five days till the website updates then. Not too much longer to go till I can see a little bit of Soda Skimmer.

Don't know if you have already seen it but there is a really short Soda Skimmer sequence in one of the recently posted Meet the Skylanders/vehicles videos.

Can't remember which one though, maybe Fiesta's.

Not the sequence I was talking about (that showed a non-modded Soda Skimmer) but here you go:



Not the clearest image but better than nothing, uh?

Hey thanks.
And WOW JUST WOW THAT THING IS AMAZING. I wonder what it's attack would be.

There is Soda Skimmer footage in the bottom right at 3:10

Blink, i think we've seen that already But IDK..

Some people might've but there was discussion above reguarding what it's attacks will be
It appears to shoot yellow projectiles

Soda or Potions perhaps.
I just love the engine too I personally think Soda Skimmer is one of the more creative designs.

Some new info here:

At 4:25 Stealth Elf's voice is so different
I think VV might pull a Brock

I don't know if this is known but Roller Brawl's weapon is confirmed.. It looks like she uses Boomerangs! Yayy!

Old news, Luminous.

Alright Sorry!! Anyway, Bone Bash Roller Brawl is now my favorite Repose

Quote: Blink182Bouncer

But Brock's current voice isn't even Troy Baker's final form!(and I won't point you guys which is; NSFW but I'll say there's no shadow of a doubt it's campy)

I kid. A new name to Portal Master rank doesn't make it less silly,guys.
Also the Supercharger Chest also grants mods what.

Also Incorrect Hub State. Don't Debug Here. I'll guess FGTV was quick in asking for this info and they were just using the devkits for it since this appears to be in the World 1 state.

And they confirmed it doesn't matter what variant, the Supercharged duo depends on the skylander. So you can't supercharge Dark Sea Shadow until Wave 2 ._.'

Wave 2, which will also be released on day 1, so not a big deal.

Not big unless for those that are planning to finish the game overnight with the Dark Starter. A very small amount of people but depending on timezones will be the first showing up here to discuss the spoilers. But yeah,not big of a deal unless you bought it loose and until then Nightfall will be everywhere.

Yeah, the front of Soda Skimmer definitely looks like it has soda/potion bottles built in

Quote: Bionichute

Wave 2, which will also be released on day 1, so not a big deal.

Yes big deal. Remember that for those out of USA will not have access to wave two till a later date due to wave two not releasing at release of the game. For those, Dark Sea Shadow will be unSupercharged till wave two comes out mid October/Begin November. I myself am in the EU and know very well wave two wont be here for me. Atleast not on day one.

Why I say this? It's because it has always been this way. For me, wave 2 is always released around the end of October or begin November. I am pretty sure it will be the case this year again.


I'm sorry if I sound rude, but sometimes it feels like Activision only cares for the USA. I NEVER saw the last waves of Giants ánd Swap Force
It was only by luck I got HBWhirlwind and Scratch. I never have seen a S2 Drobot ever.

Oh...and dont make me start on Frito Lay promo's....

^ That.

And that's why I'm also not touching this game until I can get every figure at once. Really hate waiting for them and the low amount of Skylanders would make the wait worse this time. Aus releases are consistently worse with each game and the gaps compared to other countries are obnoxious (we didn't get Mirror of Mystery until February).

I know some countries don't get these games at all now and I'm not really being constructive but I still feel whiny and can't help but agree, so I'm still posting this.
