Right now, everything but the starter is on the table for NOT buying. I'm sure it won't end up like that, but my dissonance has to be met with resistance.

Will be getting the dark xbone edition. The table version may happen depending on how well we like the game and what the pricing is on black friday.

I plan on passing on reposes, however, I really like the way Jet Vac looks, so that may be an exception. Also, depending on pricing, I may end up getting the triple pack with shroom boom.

I will be getting the variants or the regular versions. So will get the legendary nightmare express, but not regular version. Will get Nitro krypt king, but not krypt king.

As for minis, I have the original 8, so won't be getting the 3 packs that only contain those.

For traps, I'll start off with one of each and then go from there. I doubt we will want go for one of every kind, but I will likely be up for extras if there are specific villains we want to trap.

Not sure on accerssories. I want to see the quality of the trap holder first. I've liked the strategy guide in the past, but not crazy about the pricing on that.
Couragefan09 Emerald Sparx Gems: 3392
#12 Posted: 10:45:10 02/10/2014

Legendary Jawbreaker
Tuff Luck
Enigma (Who isn't getting this guy? LOL)
Thunderbolt
Head Rush
Bat Spin
High Five
Deja Vu
Legendary Blades
Loose Blades (I have no interest in a second Nightmare Express or Torch or Gil Grunt so I'm just going to try getting him loose.)
Echo
Trail Blazer
Funny Bone
Cobra Cadabra
Fizzy Frenzy Pop Fizz


Will NOT be getting:
Blastermind (I like his design but his voice bothers me so much that it turned me off of getting him. It does not fit him at all.)
Jawbreaker
Lob Star
Ka-Boom (He's pretty close to being one of my least favorite Skylanders ever.)
Chopper
Flip Wreck
Torch
Fist Bump
Tread Head
Food Fight
Fling Kong
Rocky Roll
Tidal Wave Gill Grunt
Hog Wild Fryno
Sure Shot Shroomboom
Full Blast Jet Vac
Legendary Daja Vu
Avoiding minis altogether

Might be getting:

Gusto (I want to get a better grasp of what his upgrades are before I decide)
Short Cut

I am considering stopping collecting variants (I already only do in-game visible variants... but I have all of them for the 3 first games so it is a tough call ! )

In addition, this time I think I will only get triple packs and adventure packs at release time and wait for prices decrease in a few months or even second hand to complete my roaster.
Bionichute Yellow Sparx Gems: 1889
#15 Posted: 11:19:33 02/10/2014
I'll be getting:

And 1 of each trap element.

Maybe be getting some Cores, and the adventure packs, but other than that, not getting anything else.

Well, Dark starter, 2 set of 3 traps (seen it at the micromania site) and that's all for the moment.
Maybe a wallop because I like his head, but not even sure.

Already got Dark Ed. for PS4 (no preorder bonuses though sadly, EB gave all their gearshifts to their expo), and accidentally splurged on Nightmare Express and the undead minis (gift for my partner) yesterday.

If I do get any more soon, they'll be Chopper, Krypt King, Echo, High Five and maybe magic and earth traps.

Otherwise I'm grabbing everything else secondhand in 1-2 years time, just can't afford to get figures brand new. smilie

Have the Dark 360 edition + Gearshift preordered from Best Buy w/GCU, plus Nitro KK from Target w/redcard. May get the TRU trap box and microcomics, but waiting for B2G1 free from ToysRUs for the Legendaries, and B2G1 from Best Buy for everything else. Still haven't finished swap force nor ever started 3ds SF.

Does anyone know if any retailers have an exclusive version of the official TT strategy guide like walmart did last year with that awesome SF combination poster?

The plan so far:

Dark Starter (PS3)
OR
Wii U bundled with Trap Team (if such a thing exists by Christmas)

Trap Masters:
Tuff Luck smilie
(Maybe) Head Rush smilie
(Maybe) Enigma smilie
(Maybe) Knight Mare

Core:
Chopper smilie
Echo smilie
Trail Blazer smilie
High Five smilie
Deja Vu smilie
Blades smilie
Spotlight
Blackout
(Maybe) Flip Wreck smilie
(Maybe) Bat Spin smilie
(Maybe) Funny Bone smilie

Series X:
none (but I only have 1/5 of them. May end up getting the others if they come bundled with something I want)

Minis:
Spry smilie (+Mini-jini if I must)
Breeze smilie (+Pet Vac if I must)

Traps (little preference on sculpt):
Undead
Earth
Kaos (if Wii U Bundle)
(Maybe) Tech (I don't like robots or weapons, but their music is amazing)
(Maybe) Air (I need to see Dreamcatcher's attacks before making any decisions, but I'm not looking at videos at this time to avoid spoilers)
(Maybe) Light (I don't know who these guys are; thus I can't make any decisions about them)
(Maybe) Dark (See above)

Everything else is a no unless they are bundled economically with something I want. I will ONLY get the Trap Masters of elements not covered above if 1)They are on sale and less than $10 each (or B1G1 sale that amounts to that), and 2)Trap Team far exceeds my expectations like Swap Force did. Even the Trap Master "maybe"'s I'm leaning towards only getting them at $10 or less. The Core "maybe"'s are economical bundles or Series X only, probably. Tuff Luck I'm not sure. For her I'll see if I feel like paying retail when she comes out or not.
