Odd, not available on the website. Not saying this isn't true, but would like something a little more concrete. Plan on going to TRU in a few hours, so will find out then.

I am not saying that the Legendary Starter Pack isn't true, but it makes complete sense. If you want people to buy the wave 1 figures from your store, having an exclusive starter pack will definitely help.

Same, I think it'd definitely make sense for TRU to have a special edition, considering that not only was that one CEO at the unveiling, but they've been pretty close partners for a few years now.

Honestly, I think i'd like it better if they had an exclusive version anyways. Ideally, sticking all the Legendaries from the get go into a special version would save me money...so i dont have to buy them lol

Atm i'll take it as a rumor, but I wouldnt be surprised if it came as a pre-order deal.

"That box is for Preorder cards only. We got the legendary bumble blast figures in as well.**"

Based on this quote in the link from the employee, I will also consider this a rumor/misunderstanding.

...including our fully exclusive Legendary series of figures that will introduce Skylanders Trap Team to our enthusiastic customers this October.”

I can confirm that the pre order is legendary. I ordered mine in the store on Friday. I saw on the receipt that it said "Sky Trap Legenda Pre-order." I called to confirm and manager said yes. I am out of town til Monday so can try to post a picture when I get home.

Pretty poor marketing on TRUsted part. No where at the store does it say the have a legendary version. And I imagine e some customers don't want the legendary version. I will wait till there are more specific details before I preorder anything.

Nothing on the site... if you Pre Order online do you pay on release or what? Because I'm quite sure they'd give you some kind of receipt. Just order then cancel?
EDIT: So they don't ship here anyway.

#24 Posted: 19:11:13 27/04/2014
LOL if it comes out here it'll be available everywhere. IF it comes out that is. If it is real I hope it does. I have a feeling it won't be Legendary Versions of the starter characters, or it has them and others, like the Dark Edition.
ace Gold Sparx Gems: 2982
#25 Posted: 20:58:52 27/04/2014
Its a cool idea but i really wouldnt like it if they did that :/ Cause the i'd HAVE to buy a starter pack from TRU if i want all the figures, and what if another store does a special starter as well like gamestop with another dark starter? I only need one game after all <.<

#27 Posted: 23:37:41 27/04/2014
Seems odd that it is not made more obvious somewhere before you buy it that it is a legendary starter pack, as some people would not be happy when they went to pick it up if they wanted and were expecting the regular skylanders
Eggers Yellow Sparx Gems: 1305
#28 Posted: 00:43:36 28/04/2014
I can't help but feel maybe this was an error on the part of TRU. Wrong barcodes on the cards or put incorrectly in their system maybe. While a legendary starter set may be true, they wouldn't have the cards for only that and nothing else. Gamestop sold both a regular starter and their dark edition. TRU only has one set of cards and if receipts are saying it is a legendary one, I can't imagine they'll ignore people who only want to preorder a regular set. So maybe they meant to do regular starter preorders first, then wait to do the legendary ones after it's announced. I'm just making guesses.

Of course, to debunk my own theory, it was easier to Gamestop to start with regular starters and then announce a dark one later on because of how their preorder system works. Anyone could simply transfer their money from one pack to another at will. Can you change your TRU preorder at all, or just cancel it? I've never actually done a preorder outside of Gamestop, since that store allows me to put money on it slowly and trade in games towards it.

By the way, I started this post earlier, then walked away from it and forgot I was writing anything for a while. The joys of having ADD smilie Sorry if someone has already posted a thought like this that I didn't notice or see.

If anyone was to have a special edition, I would like it to be TRU, as they are usually the one with the best deals come Black Friday (which is when I usually wait to get the game). However, if it's more expensive than the regular set, it may be harder for us to get. Usually I have one of our kids' grandparents buy the game. Since it's usually around $40 on Black Friday, I can usually get them to buy it. If it's much more than that, I'm not sure. And what does that mean for Legendary figures in general? Will that be the only way we could get them? Will Snap Shot and Food Fight, then, be Legendary or will they have other figures in it. If it's other figures, then how would you get Snap Shot and Food Fight (or even if they are Legendary figures, how would someone get the regular versions if they wanted?)? I guess we'll just have to wait and see. I wouldn't doubt they will do it, though. It's up for debate on how they handled the Legendary figures for Swap Force. Some have said that they haven't sold as well. I'm not sure that's completely true. There are a lot still hanging on the pegs, but I think they just put out more. We didn't get into Skylanders until Giants, so I completely missed out on any SSA Legendaries. Giants Legendaries were even hard to get. We only got Legendary Chill and Legendary Bouncer as we happened to catch them when they came out. Granted, around the holidays, they suddenly got quite a few cases of some of the Legendaries, but during the prime life of Giants, they weren't that easy to find. For Swap Force, however, I keep seeing tons of them at a time. I've seen them get dwindled down a bit only to be replaced with a lot more. Plus they brought them all out in the beginning instead of spreading them out like they did with Giants. I think they just produced a lot more of them this time around, making them easy to get for the average person who wanted them, but also less attractive to collectors, thus making the Legendary line less attractive. If they release a set of Legendary figures that you can only get with the starter set or make them more limited outside the starter set, it may give more attractiveness to the Legendaries.

that doesn't mean it's a legendary starter pack only they are specifying that TRU gets exclusive legendaries every game, some people are really grasping at straws. Until I see an actual picture stop getting hopes up for a legendary starter please

As most of you know, I work at a Toys R Us. I too can confirm that this is true. We don't know what will be exclusive about this but there will definitely be something. I'm guessing an exclusive Legendary Starter Pack like the Dark Edition for Swap Force at GameStop or the pre-order bonus is an exclusive Legendary figure. I'll keep you all posted.

#33 Posted: 11:30:11 29/04/2014
I was not trying to get people's hopes up for nothing. I did not specifically say that there was or was not a Legendary Starter pack, as others have clearly stated they believe to be true. I simply posted information that I had found. The article states that..."our fully exclusive Legendary series of figures that will introduce Skylanders Trap Team to our enthusiastic customers this October.” With the word "introduce" I would say that they were doing something at the launch/release of the game in October that has something to do specifically with Legendary figures. Agreeing with PurpleSnurple, and others that have pre-ordered the game, with their receipt specifically stating "Sky Trap Legenda Pre-order." they are definitely doing something at the release of the game that has to do with their Legendary exclusive figures. I never stated what exactly that was as I do not know. Thank you Trexroarr for the confirmation on this.

#34 Posted: 14:14:52 29/04/2014
What's more odd is that it is the same price as the normal version. That being the case it likely would not contain more figures than the normal starter or maybe just one figure like trex was saying, they give you one of the legendaries for pre-ordering through them.

Does TRU have multiple versions for pre-order in their system? If yes, then there probably is something unique about it. If it's the only listing, then I'm still considering it could be an error. It's a safe bet that TRU will carry the standard version, even if they also offer a 2nd version.

I'm starting to wonder this too.
Perhaps when you pick up the game, you get a free Legendary Skylander? Maybe a new one? I'm pretty sure with Swap Force if you got it at TRU they gave you LC Hex and also a single character...certainly wouldn't bust their chops to hand out a SF era Legendary if they have a lot of them left (which I'm assuming is highly likely)

I'll probably buy one version of the game for ps3, and one for ps4. Thats what I did with swap force. So if 2 different exclusives come out then it wont be that bad. But Im hoping only eb games gets the exclusive cause i work there and thats where i'll get my pre order.

Yeah, Food Fight doesn't look that great as legendary. Even if you reverse the colors. The receipts are funny though because we doubt Toys R Us would sign consumers up for a different starter pack than what they were reserving. We could see a system mess up and a future announcement for a Legendary One though, but then why wait to announce, to make an extra $1 for people that jump ship and switch to Legendary unless someone goes to customer service to try and get a dollar back. smilie

Ugh. Legendary Food Fight would look terrible. Snap Shot wouldn't look much better, judging by that mock up. I guess I've never really liked any of the legendaries except for Bouncer, but he already had gold as a color in his normal version. I also hated the dark versions of the characters because I felt like the quirkiness of the characters was gone. Anyway, will be getting the regular edition like usual.
