Time flies. Remember when we called this "Skylanders 4"?
Trap Team releases tomorrow in Australia, Sunday in the US and just over a week in Europe. Before we start posting what we think of the game when it comes out, lets discuss what we know, what we don't know and what were hoping for one last time. What will you be buying Day 1? Regular Starter? Dark Edition? Tablet Starter? All three? Are you buying the game at all? What are you hoping to see in these new Light & Dark elements? What do you think of the 3DS version? A rip off?
What figures are you excited for the most? Are you going to bother with reposes this year? How high are your expectations for this game?
Let's discuss it all right now.

My thoughts on the console version: O MAH GOD SUNDAY CAN'T COME SOON ENOUGH!

My thoughts on the 3DS version: Meh...

My thoughts on the characters: They all look really cool!

My thoughts on the villains: They all also look really cool! To bad we don't get an even amount each element (yet that is)

My overall thoughts on the game:

Thoughts on Console Version: HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE!
Thoughts on 3DS Version: Looks better than I expected, I'll ask for it around christmas or something.
Thoughts on Characters: ENIGMA. 'Nuff said.
Thoughts on Villains: Can't wait to trap KAOOOS!

I love the series so much put it just takes everything swap force added and throws it out the window. More than half the characters are lame, boring story ABSOLUTELY sub par villains (A chest with teeth? A Basic Chompy?) Gimmick sucks, like cant they all trap villains? Whats the point of the trap masters? Also, now they're just scamming us out of actual figures for hunks of non detailed plastic to capture their awfully designed villains.

Dont even get me started on the lack of pvp and the 3ds version

Im not gonna get this one or if the next one is even close to this im passing on that too.

This game to me looks like a fat pile of ****. I love the series so much put it just takes everything swap force added and throws it out the window.

100% agreed

I agree it ses horrible yet I'll still have every figure trap repose mini or anything they release..I've been doin this four years and one reruns variant an figure. Because I know if I don't I'll miss out. Thankfully for SSA I had the hiensight to think they may become limite

Thoughts on console version: Can't wait!

Thoughts on 3DS version: I'll wait for more gameplay before I decide on that.

Thoughts on characters: There aren't as many I like as there are in the previous games, but there's still enough characters that I want to enjoy the game. Also, I love the minis.

Thoughts on villains: Mostly can't wait to trap Wolfgang, Painyatta and Kaos. I like the trapping idea overall especially with how it makes you feel like they were brought to our world.

Thoughts on the console version: Want to give it a playthrough, but probably won't be a keeper once I 100% it.

Thoughts on the 3DS version: Don't own a 3DS, plan to scarf all the 3DS games up at discount once I get one down the road though and just have fun with my collection.

Thoughts on the characters: The fact you need one of each element of trap master ticks me off to no end; I would've been happy with just Krypt King and Short Cut, but now to 100% it I need at least one of each? Meh. The new cores do not interest me and are sadly kinda useless in this game, including the undeads. The minis only for the sake of completion, as they do have some character to them.

Thoughts on villains: Pretty much the game's bread and butter, the villains (especially Kaos) look to be a blast to play. That said still only doing one of each trap, so six more to gather up I guess.

Really hoping I can datamine this game...I'd love to let all of you (and myself) know what to expect down the pike.

My thoughts about the game hasn't significantly changed. They've effectively removed a lot of the small touches to toy customization that a lot of "old timers" really like. They've removed a lot of things from previous games that would've made good additions, but I like the idea that they want to "forge" ahead. But for me it seems you have to be ADD to really enjoy this game. because of all of the characters and distractions.

my final thoughts on Trap Team is that tfb should stick to making the figures only and let vv make the game...

Thoughts on the console version: Looks pretty solid. They really should have given a better reason for using core and older figures. I never PvP, so I'm happy to trade that for Doom Challenge. I expect to prefer Swap Force, but I think I'll be satisfied by the looks of it.

Thoughts on the 3DS version: The game itself looks better than I feared, but the included figures with the pack are a slap in the face. I'm going to wait for the first big discount (like $25+ off) to get it.

Thoughts on the characters: Pretty standard: I like a bunch, am indifferent to some, and dislike a few. The Magic Trap Master duo look fantastic, as do Lob Star, Gearshift, Tread Head and Deja Vu. As for Trail Blazer, Rocky Roll and Cobra Cadabra...not so much.

Thoughts on villains: Almost all of them seem awful except Wolfgang, Hood Sickle and Masker Mind. On the plus side, that does mean few characters I wish I had physical figures of.

Have TFB work on the figures, story, and the little details, while having VV work on the actual game part of the game.
