Any word on this yet? I don't want to order the starter pack this weekend if gamestop is going to have another exclusive. I guess good news is starter packs never sell out and the dark edition is still at my gamestop to this day they have like 10 boxes.

I doubt there will be another Variant Addition.

Oh god i hope not
I bought both the 3DS and Wii U versions, and now i have no need to get the Dark Edition, even though I want the figures out of it.

I don't like having Special Editions if it means having a full set of variants from them. (like really, what was there, 5 Dark guys in that pack?) having 1 or so is fine though.

I think it's probably safe to assume the 3DS version will have a special version of a character. Maybe in this game a special Trap, or an alternate color Food Fight?

I would suggest holding out on pre-ordering at all. I'm sure we'll hear all kinds of bonus offers in the next few months.

Agreed. Jade Fire Kraken seems like the likely candidate.

Makes sense. Anyway, who knows, free traps?

will ds version have a variant in like always coz ill get the ps4 one and ds one

I made the mistake of buying dark edition last time, And now I have this ugly Slobbertooth, two dark swapper I don't like and the two I do like (Dark Spyro and Dark ninja Stealth elf)

There are tons and tons of dark editions at my work (eb games). Like sooo many i feel like theyre never going to sell. I think they anticipated it to do better, but they waited so long, a lot of people didnt want to change their pre orders. But I'm going to hold off on pre ordering it too for now.

I personally am a sucker for collectors editions and in-game variants. I am hoping for another one personally. I love the dark variants. Dark wash buckler and dark blast zone offered and interesting cohesion between swapping with each other that I appreciated. I wish they would added more of a back story for the dark characters, but it makes me think they are their own separate little team, bound together by the fact that they all had to tame their newly found darkness with the help of spyro. With any luck, we will see a collectors edition with that box for the traptanium crystals. If not, Power A better get on it and have that bad boy ready for market come october.

If they do a special edition again i'll order a normal edition on ps3 and the special on ps4 then i can play on both systems for double trophies.

I actually enjoy Special Edition figures more than the originals. Those Dark Skylanders were great. But if there is gonna be some new ones, I'll be ready for them. Also, new Legendary versions will be available once again at TRU. Sometimes, I think differently-colored variants are way more intriguing than original versions.
