If they're making ANOTHER Gill Grunt, then they can at least make another Spyro, right?

HE NEEDS TO LIVE ON!

i dont think we will ever see spyro again in this game.

I would bet the farm on it happening. He's the leader of the pack. Gill Gunt and the Eon's Elite are like second in command. I guess Chop Chop and Whirlwind decided to sit this one out and Roller Brawl got promoted up in rank due to her knowledge with wheels. LOL OK I'm just being silly, but it's the only way to keep the storyline somewhat senseable.

S1, S2, S3, Dark, Mini, Eon's Elite, comics... What u talking about?

i'm still betting on no since they can use quite a few different characters instead of him and it'd be interesting to see a game where he's not in it. i'm sticking with spitfire is the main skylander of superchargers this time around and he resembles a dragon somewhat so they can get away from spyro for one release.

He probably means we are probably not going to get another Spyro figure.

Which I do not approve of.

Guys, Spyro is STRONGLY likely to be a Super Charger. He's gonna be a central character in the Rift into Overdrive graphic novel.

I approve. Really, Skylanders isn't a Spyro game anymore.

It's still a game which greatly features Spyro elements. He's getting the real short end of the stick if he's going to call for help for the Superchargers and not get to do anything himself after the prequel.

Cool. Just because someone is wrong?


Seriously it's a graphic novel prequel, they could've used anyone but Spyro and there he is.

It's a long shot - but... Spyro for Smash 4 and his Amiibo will be like the DK/Bowser Skylanders figures - folks can use it in either game.

It would explain the trade off to Activision of DK and Bowser if Nintendo was using Spyro in return.

I think the return might be a percentage off of Amiibolander sales for Acti being able to distribute more figures. But Spyro in smash would be amazing - too bad Crash wouldn't be around as well.

Yes I want my Spyro!!!

This actually. With the push of other characters for years since giants, they just used spyro to get skylanders in the door. Only the older gamers are the high percentage that they make spyro for year after year. The fact he got just an elite and a mini shows they are getting closer to non spyro for a game. Funny how no showing of the reposed magic has shown up yet and its LAST? wonder why on that yet?

Something could've happened to him, makes sense on the call out for other dimensions.

Just complete wishful thinking really. Since there was just an announcement of roy and ryu being added to smash and the fact the only other slot that will come up in the foreseeable future is the smash ballot one and that's in october. Spyro wouldn't be in the running and would've been announced alongside these two.

...Not sure what your point is. He called for the Superchargers because of the Doomstation. Which is why I'm saying that he also got the powers since apparently where he needs to go to find them has dimensional rifts, which they seem to have control over. And if they got that from going to the ends of Skylands, he must get it as well.

I just don't see him as one and looking more at that blurred poster, I don't see any of the traditional features that would easily pick out spyro. Even from a bad image, you can start to see the other ones that were revealed exactly where they are on the poster. None of which look anything remotely enough to pick him out.

There isn't much to be picked up at all,it's a mess of purple. It's pretty hard to use as reference if at all.

NO!

NO SPYRO!!! Gill Grunt is the new star of the game!!!

(sigh)

Gill Grunt is the surrogate leader? Nope.
Gill Grunt is a rare species OF A RARE SPECIES? Nope.
Spyro wears tacky outfits like he ripped off part of his sub to wear as a mask? Nope.

GG is only the star of the game if it's about being ridiculous. He even only starred in two books that still had Spyro taking most of the spotlight.

Gill Grunt = GG

GG = Gotta Go (and buy another Gill Grunt)

The pointless posting is getting out of hand there.

It was never a Spyro game to begin with.

The only reason his name was in the 1st game was because he was the one who helped Eon recruit the team, and also to show that he was now part of a bigger franchise.

If there were no more Spyro figures it wouldn't bother me.

He's had Legendary, Dark, Reposes, A mini, and an Elite.

I think it's time for Spyro to be taken down from the pedestal, because he's just another Skylander character.

Cynder doesn't get all this hype and she's been around nearly as long and yet no-one complains that she's been overlooked numerous times.

Absolutely agree.

He gets a lot of attention in the comics and as long as I have his S1 figure I will never feel he has been forgotten.

No particular Skylander is special or more important, because they are all unique in their very own way.

Personally, I think Pop Fizz or Star Strike are likely to be the Magic re-imagined Supercharger. They both also have decent fanbases, and so far, every character that's a Supercharger is bipedal or at least has an upright figure.

I mean, the fact that it was Pop Fizz and not Spyro who got an ACTUAL repose says something to me.

Spyro didn't get an S4 because there isn't anything smart to be done with Wow Pows on him anymore. His normal upgrades are too limiting. Which is why he and not Pop Fizz who got a Mini.

I think the reason might have been because people cried that he only got to be an Elite rather than getting a repose.

The solution, give him a mini.

That one turned out well...

Call me biased, but I'd purchase another Spyro for this game, especially since his moveset would be different.

I think spyro is must as if gill grunt can get one why can't spyro.

Skylanders owe Spyro, without him, there wouldn't even be "Skylanders"

Spyro ? Never heard of her .

Quote: Skylander3112

That made my day, thank you.

It was very amusing.

But in all seriousness, Skylanders has never been about Spyro.

It is a story about a group of creatures who band together to fight an evil portal master.

Spyro was introduced to the series, because people would recognize him no other reason.

If he wasn't released again after game one i doubt a lot of people would care.

It's just because a few people started on the thing of 'this is a new Spyro game' that everyone is jumping on the bandwagon like a bunch of sheep.

Since the first game has his name featured anywhere in the title?

The game was called Skylanders Spyro's Adventure, not Spyro a Skylander adventure, meaning it was telling the story of how he stepped away from his own series to become part of something bigger.

If Spyro never came back again i couldn't care any less, i prefer to see new additions to the Skylanders rather than rehashing old characters over an over again, for me when they get a mini that should be the cut off point because they've had their run.

I do however spyro would look weird in a water gate vehicle hence pop fizz seems more likely here.

Like i've said before, i doubt that the dragons will make a comeback for any element.

All the ones we've seen are bipeds, which makes me think Light and Dark are going to get 2 new characters each, which they need to boost the ranks anyway.

"Spyro is not on the title" is an incredibly silly argument and sounds like the stuff genwunners would say. I could pull up a list of how many great games don't have the protagonist in the title in case someone needs to be told what to call the thing they're controlling but I'd be just bragging. I'll just go and say Zelda is such a strange elf in Majora's Mask.

The game owes Spyro a LOT because it's inspired by his series. They literally spent weeks playing his games to know what to keep and what to let go, and some stuff in the aesthesics definately stayed. Spyro was even going to be Master Eon at some point,and that's why the game stopped being called spyro's Kingdom - because having him be an NPC,even the major one would be a greater insult.

It's time people face facts, it's not a Spyro game.

What it was meant to be and what it ended up as are two different things.

It was planned as a Spyro game and then it was changed to make him a minor part, it could have been a way to give him a little focus so that if a new Spyro game appears people are aware of who he is.

At the end of the day, he's a video game character, so it's a little difficult to insult something that it's real.

SPYRO is one of the weakest Skylanders ever.

I don't really care if we get Spyro again or not. It was never really his game for me. He was my core Magic Skylander up until Swap Force but then Deja Vu with trap team and I don't think I'll ever replace her as my Core Magic Skylander.

Anyhow i'm going to say what i've been saying plenty of times.
Series 3 MAX. I don't want anymore Reposes or whatever you even consider superchargers after a "series 3". Granted I would much prefer Spyro over Trigger Happy and Gill Grunt but he still won't replace Deja Vu as my core magic skylander.

Quote: Iganagor

Oh my, another community war...
Spyro is actually pretty strong between Gill Grunt.

Next, He's the star of the series, why not make him a dragon-blow torch-thing-with goggles, kinda. They gotta bring him that, they can't just leave him out like this. Not anymore...

I don't think you get the issue. There is no Spyro series now, only Skylanders. Acti had 5 years to give him solo games again, and at this point you might as well say the franchise was replaced. We will not have Spyro outside of this for a long time if not forever, and what's left of him is part of this now. That's 15 years down the drain. It's just pixels, but it's still history, and yes it's an insult if you degrade history to a NPC. It's not too much to ask to give him a darn figure, because it's what's going to keep him relevant from now on. They went through the trouble of getting him out of limbo and not putting him back when they were done.

My point is, he's part of a different series meaning he's not the main focus anymore.

He isn't the focus but he's still part of the spirit of the series. I'm not saying he needs to be more important than anyone, I'm saying at least keep him around. It's all he has now,as depressing as the thought may be to who grew up with him.

Exactly what i was trying to say.

When you think Magic element, the first character name that comes to mind is Spyro because he was one of the original 3.

He's still around, just because he doesn't get a figure every game, which most Spyro fans want.

Also i think he's appeared in the majority of the books, so he's going to remain a part of the series.

i have faith in tfb, they will do the right thing and bring him back again...

Quote: CountMoneyBone

But can the old fans keep calm if he skips a game? The fear will be real at that point.

He doesn't need to be in every game.

It's not as if no-one knows he's a character.

When you introduce someone they become part of the franchise whether they appear again or not.
