EB games now has Kaos up as a preorder bonus

I had to have it shipped though coz pickup wasn't available at many stores for some reason.

All EB stores should have it. You just won't get it until actual release day. I'm not too sure what you mean by 'pickup wasn't available at many stores'.

Well yeah obviously .
Meaning when I tried to select a pickup location, only 2 stores were available in Victoria to select from

Oh you ordered online. Yeah that's a bit buggy when you choose pick up. Either go in store to pre-order or pre-order online and get it sent to you xD

target will have the Crash pack for in store pre order from the 25th of August for 120$ .
They arnt running the Kaos preorder bonus though.

How much will the figures and crystals cost?

Maggi Noodles is doing a Battlecast Promotion where you get 3 battelcast cards when purchase a family packet of noodles.

I got Obsidian Hot Head, Spitfire and a Trigger Happy spell. Did anyone get the same combination?

I bought them from my local Coles. I assume they are wherever Maggi Noodles are sold.

About time but I wish Wave 2 was there as well.

Eb's advertising emails are suggesting that preordering through them is 'the only way to get Kaos'. Is this actually true, or just advertising guff?

It's true, Kaos is a pre order bonus only.

Huh, good to know. Guess I'm preordering then. Thanks!

Eb Games has 6 of the new characters up for pre-order No Chompy Mage or hood sickle.
Wonder is we are going to get any variants this time ??. Australians received only the standard characters with exceptions of the standard thrillapede.

Legendaries will most likely be Big W Exclusive, like previous years.

What do you mean? We had basically all the variants
We got legendaries, steel plated smash hit, Christmas dive clops, all the Easter things and the nitro vehicles for superchargers.

Sorry i meant the non in game variants like the bronze and
Patina variants none of which were ever found in Australia. Only Us and European countries.

I don't know...

Might be a real thing. We'll see I guess.

Maybe not all released on day one I think though , but maybe the wave 1 and wave 2 gap is really short this year, like within the first month.

wave 1 does seem a little small, even with the crystals.
Not including the senseis in the starter packs , there's only like 8 senseis to actually buy in wave 1 . So maybe they decided to move up the wave 2 release.

It might also explain why stores worldwide seem to have this wave 1 and 2 day one confusion.


Also are those Australian prices ? Coz if so the crystals are actually a pretty good price for us considering the US price is $10 .

Yeah I agree.

Also yay . If crystals are 11$ at EB games they might just be $10 at big w and Kmart etc.

Sure our senseis and adventure packs are pricey , but it's nice they tried to keep the crystal cost down.

Called EBGames Ballina, And yes, these are the correct prices,and available to preorder instore - Looks like im gonna preorder Hood Sickle, Aurora and the Tech,Undead,Magic Creation Crystal Pack

Awesome

Realising we're now exactly within a week of the release, I'm becoming even more confident in getting wave 2 figures on or near launch day.

From my experiences with ebgames at least, they usually arnt know to share release dates unless they're pretty certain of them, especially with us being this close to the date.

But I'm trying not to get my hopes up lol

Awesome!!! Thanks for the confirmation.

Now we just need catalogues. Hopefully big w will release one soon coz they only have a Halloween catalogue current atm.

Called Target and BigW,And strangely, wouldn't give me the prices even when they had the stock

Yeah I noticed the 12th embargo thing too lol,it's super annoying.

I've found Big w and target to be pretty competitive on day one, so they probably didn't want to release their prices yet.
It'll be interesting to see what wave 1+2 ( or whatever it is now lol ) actually consists of exactly. I'm expecting something random to appear as an exclusive somewhere.

I'm actually half expecting the 8-crystal pack at jb hifi or something lol.


Ooo also my preorder of the dark starter pack from ebgames now says it's been "shipped"

Awesome !!!those are very decent prices for senseis, crystals and the adventure pack. We're doing very well this year

Crystals are super cheap for us lol.


Also looks like Kaos figures will be available everywhere with a purchase of starter pack at target too.

@Drawdler could you please take a picture of the top of the ad, where kaos is?

Big W's catalogue has been released for Aussies - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/269847

• $74 Starter Packs (with Kaos while stocks last)
  
• $15 Senseis (Wave 1 only, but they have the exclusive on Legendary Tri-Tip who's also $15
  
• 9 Creation Crystals (Wave 1 only)
  
• $6 Mystery Chests
  
• $30 Gryphon Park Observatory Adventure Pack
  

No mention of Crystal Triple Packs or Wave 2 toys. Will be interesting to see whether EB does indeed get those at launch!

Big w prices better !!

No probs. with regards to wave 2, I believe in our ebgames lol,they don't usually jump the gun with skylanders release dates.

These catalogue prints don't look like they were made by each store, they are literally almost identical to the Argos catalogue leaked in America 3 months ago aswell. So they might not exactly represent the whole stock.

It looks like these catalogue images were decided on by the franchise months ago.

Just a pic of the target one so we don't need the links anymore.

Thanks for posting the Target catalogue Drawdler!

I didn't realise there was an AU-specific topic, I should've been hanging here too It's weird how last minute all the advertising was, you'd think we'd have concrete details on what was launching when we're three days from launch...

Yeah, the late advertising sucks, especially for planning with my budget. Strangely I still haven't even received a catalogue in the mail advertising the game. And all I kept doing was checking the websites... I feel so stupid. I really should have checked darkspyro for forums about this sort of thing.

Finally, somewhere where I belong

Yeah, I really want that 8-CC Pack.

Wonder how much it'll cost? $65 - $70 is my guess. (I'm referencing this off EB Games prices, not the BigW and Target bargains. I'm assuming JB isn't that cheap, right?)

Don't know? Never found or saw it.

I was planning on getting those crystal triple packs from EB but seeing that crystal bargain, I'll just wait for them to release in the other stores.

8 Pack would possibly be JB Hi-Fi exclusive as well. Here's a picture of what it would like. (I believe it's an official picture)

More confirmation that EB are getting both waves at launch (SilverWolf is a reliable source).

How much was the Trap 8-Pack? Might help with guessing what the T̶r̶a̶p̶ Crystal 8-pack would cost.

I think the 8 pack of crystals from a TT was $45 ( from memory) . It was definately under 50 .
If we get the 8 CC pack I think it might be about $60 at the cheapest on release.

Do we have a conformation on sensei + cc combo packs. Because I'm deciding whether I should wait and get wolfgang and undead cc in a pack or buy them separately on day one. How much cheaper will it be?

Nah no confirmation yet that I know of, they're supposed to be the same price as crystal triple packs though.

How much is that?
$25 - $30 I assume
