*Start of rant*
I know that Yroc said not all the villains were Doom Raiders, but I really don't understand why they would do that. They have 10 perfect villains to use, all with their movesets basically cut out for them. I don't see why they wouldn't use these characters that would be so easy to make full on Skylanders. Also, what villains are their really for them to use? Moneybone, Cluck, Mesmeralda, Stratosfear, Spellslamzer and Shellshock are all owned by VV. Why would TFB uses characters that aren't theirs when they already have the Doom Raiders, who are perfect for the roles of the Villain Senseis. Also, the clear elements of characters like Mesmeralda, Frightbeard and Spellslamzer (Magic), Moneybone (Undead) and Cluck and Shellshock (Tech) are already taken. Sure, I'd be all for figures of characters like 'ol Slammy, Stratosfear, Mesmeralda and Moneybone, but it just wouldn't make sense to me. This is coming from someone who really wants to see Stratosfear in this as the Air villain.
*Rant over.*

Well they did say that there would be villains form all previous games. I'm sure at least four or five of them will be Doom Raiders, but there will be some from other games too. Now let's list all the villains that are quite popular, have a real boss fight and could work as a Skylander.

Mesmeralda

Spellslamzer

Stratosfear

Frightbeard (I guess?)

I know that there's still the Rock Golem, the Sheep Mage, Cluck, Drill-X and more but they're just either not memorable enough, not that demanded, or they just wouldn't work as a Skylander. And the Elements for three characters I mentioned are already taken. Those four just have the biggest chance of getting figures and if they don't add them, then there will only be TT villains.

when was the next time we would get more new info about imaginators?

what about moneybone as a villain and figure to buy?...

Unless he's the rumored 11th villain (which I doubt is true, as the 31 count is most likely 20 brand new + 10 reformed villains + 1 guest star), no.

Wow, completely forgot about Frightbeard. The issue is that he isn't exactly Water because his sword lets him use several elements at once - but if they kept just the eletricity powers, maybe it could work.

so thats the actually count then?...

The website says "31 all-new Skylanders Senseis", which is technically true, since Villains have never been figures before (and their gameplay is new), and Crash has never been in Skylanders before.

"20 Skylanders" from SSC had no distinction between Brand New, Revamps or Guest Stars.
This time, there seems to be no distinction between Brand New, Reformed Villains or Guest Stars.

I just noticed something

Mysticat's tail is very similar to Tuff Luck's. Odd huh?

Edit: Another thing I noticed is that you get the Kaos weapons from the Imaginite Chests. That brings down lots of hopes.

What if Mysticat is a magical Tuff Luck? I mean, we've seen that cat's head in gameplay before.

Don't think that is the case, just throwing it out there.

I think, wasn't there also like a Kaos Staff for Sorcerers that was also unlocked by Imaginite Chests?

Maybe Mysticat isn't a new Skylander after all?

Kaos items are all chests from what we've seen. Though... Did we check the Doomlander Knight's sword to see if it's a Kaos Sword or just default? It might be for them.

I think the Doomlander weapons are only unlocked by beating the corresponding Doomlander.

Looking forward to seeing what the Doomguns, Doomstaff, and Doomclub look like.

Speaking of the Doomlanders, logically speaking, wouldn't it make sense to have 10 Doomlanders, one per battle class? If that's the case, then I guess we can assume we'll at least get more than ten levels.

From Soul Gem count we can easily be over 13. Though I really hope they're not the only bosses; they're improved midlevel villain battles but that's about it. SC screwed up big time with the vehicle bosses but the fact that you fought so many secondary villains was pretty nifty.

If Mysticat really is a magic sensei, one can say he's like Thunder and the Magic House. Ya see what I did there anyone?

Just to clear up confusion, after reading the thread I see alot of users say im not trust worthy. Yes I have made fake leaks in the past but you can believe what you want, everything I've told you is everything that has been told to me. nothing I've said about this game has been made up/lied about. again believe what you want but im just telling you everything I was told.

Alright, I believe you. Even the part about not all villains senseis being from TT. That part I very much want to be true.

I actually believe you and even though all those fake skylanders in the past were by you I think you still did a great job

Don't get me wrong, I believe that you where told this by someone, I just don't know how accurate it is. Many people will ask questions and get varying responses depending on the person/place/time it was asked. Since you are the only one who seemed to ask this question there is nothing to compare it to.

I 100% agree with you, but it makes me feel a little better that someone who is actually working on the game told me instead of someone who was paid to show off the game.

I do not think you are lying to us. I'm just confused, because Lou has said we'll have all TT villains, but now things are different.

I believe that Yroc was indeed told that, but I'm not sure how accurate it actually is. We've gotten conflicting info, so it's very hard to to tell which one is the most correct. Personally, I'm hoping for only Trap Team villains.

So am I. It would make more sense and there are lots of better villains to use.

After playing the final boss of Superchargers, I'm genuinely not sure how they can top it? I'm not sure how they can top the story either.

They can definitely top the boss fight. It was the worst one in the series so far, imo.

I think they'll use the models from TT for the respective characters.

For villains, the TT models are placeholder as seen with GD on the select screen, so if someone doesn't bug them about it they'll probably just use the old models.

Well, most TT models looked much better in TT than in SC so I hope they'll take those nevertheless.

I don't really like SC's graphics... but I mean, there has been worse.

I'm just worried about traptanium weapons

And why has none of the Superchargers emotes be working on guestbooks?

Also Luminous' and Nightshade's emotes are broken too D:

The forum is starving. Jeez why can't they reveal at lest one character, it's not like the game is four years away!

I know what you mean. I'm starting to create a fanon game because I'm so bored! I normally do that after the game comes out and I have new inspiration for an idea.

During TT some characters did go unrevealed until Meet the Skylanders and the website update, though mostly villains. Really stupid why can't Acti just have a character reveal on their channel every week or something like most games with tons of characters, fills the months easily.

That would be great! I'd love a character reveal every week!

Yeah, as I already said somewhere, somewhen, they should do it like with TT where they showed the silhoutte of Gearshift and then revealed her the day after. (I think?) The next even is one month away and I think by now no website dares to leak anything major like in the Trap Team days.

Skylanders is a series that doesn't tend to retain hype for very long. There's hype after a new reveal for like a day or two and then everyone's bored again.

They don't work on your guestbook because you have too many emotes.

Why do some of the smilies not work?

There is a limit of 40 smilies per post, smilies over that limit will not work. It may seem a bit unpredictable as to which smilies stop working over the limit as it does not pay attention to their ordering in your post.

I mentioned an idea like that a couple dozen posts ago. .-.

Don't like being one of "those people," but I feel like my ideas are going... unnoticed, I guess.

But, anyways, I'm sure they'll have something new showed by the end of July.

It's a forum and a crowded thread, the attention span will be short all around.

Is it too late to chime my two cents on the whole villain ordeal?

As much of a supporter of Mesmeralda I am (if you couldn't tell), I do kind of think the villain Senseis will only be from Trap Team. That's not to say I think Yroc lied about otherwise and I do believe he was told that, however I have a feeling that whoever told him that probably meant there will be villains other than Trap Team's as non-playable antagonists. Like Mesmeralda could still appear in the game, but only as like a boss battle or something.

It would make the most sense to make the Doom Raiders villain Senseis since they're arguably the most popular villains from Trap Team, as well as the only ones that had any bearing on the actual plot of that game. The only two I can't really see working out though are Dreamcatcher and the Gulper. Not that they can't work, just that I don't think they're likely.

While Dreamcatcher is at least somewhat popular, her design kind of hinders her chances a little I believe. The most likely option as people have stated would be a Brawler for her, but regardless what class they make her chances are it'd lead to a rather awkward figure and she just wouldn't fit in that well with the other Senseis. And as for the Gulper... He's not really that popular at all. Out of all the Doom Raiders he probably had the least impact on the plot and was just kind of there to be one of the first villains you trap.

If it's not them, then I kind of think we'll see Bad Juju and Chill Bill as Senseis. Bad Juju could easily be a Sorcerer, or even a Swashbuckler since it appears like she'll fit right in with their designs, and Chill Bill could easily be a Bazooker or Knight, especially if Battlecast is anything to go by (And that's another thing, Gulper wasn't even in Battlecast). Or if it turns out what Yroc said was heard correctly, then maybe we could see Stratosfear.

Yeah, from the wording that Yroc quoted from them, Lou probably mistook the question and thought he was asking about villains period.

Battlecast is ACTUALLY way more cloudy than it seems. Bad Juju actually has a card designed for it but only the artist posted it,so there's scrapped content we don't even know about - Gulper could've been designed for it then cut for Chill Bill, new attacks and all.

I'm pretty fine with what we have. I would perfer to be unspoiled.

Also when I asked the question Lou wasnt the one to answer. It was somebody working on the game so I guess theres a little more hope?

They can still mishear things or dodge it, Lou knows just as much about them on these types of question. Only way to know is to ask again next convention.

I still believe that we're only going to see the villains from Battlecast, plus Luminous and Nightshade.

Honestly I hope I was told wrong information. I really want Gulper and Luminous.

I think Luminous has a good shot. He's certainly popular (and I'm even good friends on DA with one of his fangirls). As I said I don't really think Gulper is too likely at this point, but I don't work at Toys for Bob, so what do I know?

Luminous or riot

Luminous is one of the most popular villains.

tbh i wouldn't mind seeing a VV villain like shellshock, spellslamzer, stratosfear, or mesmerelda

(although i think shellshock and stratosfear are ugly, mesmerelda is overraterd, and the only good one is spellslamzer)

As someone who likes sealife, Shellshock is basically one of the best crab characters I've seen in any media. It's his mustache made of crab legs that gets me. but, I don't expect him to be in Imaginators.
