darkSpyro

I made this topic last year, i'm doing it again.

My plans are-

Be at TRU @ when they open. (they usually open 8am every year for the new skylanders.)

pick up Dark Wii Starter, Gill Grunt racing Pack, Wii U Regular Starter, Stormblade, Dive Clops, Fiesta.

//forum.darkspyro.net/spyro/viewposts.php?topic=120414

Wii and Wiiu starter packs.

My plan is. Head out after school to smyths.
Get a wii u starter.
at least two Figures.
A sea and sky.
Then head to baskin robins.

" supercharge" my way out of school and "supercharge" my way down to eb games, get me starter pack and whatever else I want, Go home, spend an hour looking at the figures, convince my friend that we're playing Superchargers not minecraft blah blah blah,
AND HAVE A JOLLY GOOD TIME
that's the first time I've ever said that

My plans:
-Already pre-ordered Wii U starter pack off of Amazon
-Go to some retailer and get as many vehicles and figures as I can
-Maybe get the Wii Dark Edition at Toys R us

Midnight launch at TRU to get everything that is available. I was thinking of taking a pass this year, but with the Nintendo Dark Starter packs, I plan to attend. Anything that I miss out on, I will go to other TRU that opens at 8am. Also, if any other stores have exclusives, like Nitro from Target, I will go there and pick those up. That's worked well for me in previous years and should work well this year too.

Oh well, since people are using this as an actual schedule, why not.

1) Has Bifrost bought a Wii/PS Portal on time? Y/N
2) Has Bifrost bought a WiiU on time? Y/N
3) Does Bifrost actually have 50-60 dollars to spare during that week? Y/N

If all questions are Yes: Party tiem at DarkSpyro whoo!
If up to 2 questions are Yes: Uh... Maybe next month...
If none of the questions are Yes: May Eon help you, woman

Go to smyths right after school and Get my Wii u pre order. Then let my brothers pick a skylander. I will pick fiesta and our sea.
Let my brothers pick what ever.
Get Storm Blade.
And it wouldent be the same without getting some old swap force/Giants I don't have for a cheap price. As well as trap team.

So go away and spend that money.

yes i will do that, on games that cost less with more content but is as good as skylanders. and i even dont have to worry about not getting plastic figures and vehicles i want to complete the game. its just feel so freeing nor to worry about that.

Then go, spend that money,go talk about the games you like. You've been talking about how great it is to skip a game for months, we know that already unless someone happens to have memory issues.

Cool story bro. Might as well go find forums for those games and leave this site right? Right?

Anyway, back onto topic. I wonder which legendaries will he at launch. Though none have been announced, I would be surprised if they didn't make any this year. I don't buy any, but a legendary Storm Blade would probably be pretty cool to see.

Didnt you say this about trap team too?

He sure did. Just ignore him, he's just drawing attention like he had done every year since 2013.

You new members have to learn to ignore CountMoneyBone....he has been doing this for years....(being a debbie downer)...(stick in da mud) pick one, make up your own...dosen't matter.

Well so far I have the Dark PS4 Starter, Wii U Starter, 3DS Starter all on pre-order. Depending on what's officially available for launch, I'm getting Sky Slicer and Stormblade and about $100 or so extra (basically what ever looks the coolest lol). I REALLY wish I could play Bowser on my PS4 but the Wii U looks pretty good this time around (good old V.V.). Not really gonna stress about what to get. I'm ultimately going to get it all but I'm going about it in a very zen like manner. I'll watch for sales and get what I want, no pressure.

here's my final plan.

My plan is to PANIC OH GOD

Quote: ZapNorris

here's my final plan.

So are those all going to be all on day one?

My plan:
1. Go to Target. Buy:

Wii U Dark Starter

3DS Starter

Sea Shadow

Nightfall

Nitro Stealth Stinger (Exclusive)

Shark Shooter Terrafin + Shark Tank Combo Pack

2. Walk to Toys R Us next door, buy Sea Action Pack (buying at TRU just in case the legendary racing pack rumor is true)

3. Drive to Best Buy, pick up reserved Steel Plated Smash Hit.

4. Get donuts for Breakfast

5. Record some unboxing videos and have fun

Quote: Bifrost

1) Has Bifrost bought a Wii/PS Portal on time? Can borrow a PS3 portal from a friend
2) Has Bifrost bought a WiiU on time? YES
3) Does Bifrost actually have 50-60 dollars to spare during that week? Starting to get a bit from selling old books in my collection, with a month to spare

As long as everything is fine with Digital Owners and I don't end up having to spend my money on anything else, Day One might *actually* happen for me.
So probably check DS for said digital thing once I get on PC, hope that eShop already has it up, and unless there's schoolwork to do, play until World 4 is done because the gamepad will have wrecked by hands by then.

For me? Well...

Buying:
Stormblade
Fiesta
Dive-Clops
Sky Slicer
Crypt Crusher
Dive Bomber

Then gradually buy other figurines throughout the year, getting the Wii U and 3DS starters for Christmas, as well as Spitfire and the Hot Streak. I probably would have bought all the non-variants on day one like Swap Force, but I don't have much money saved up. Oh well.

Not enough coins.

Here's what I'm getting

Dark Wii U Starter Pack
Nightfall
High Volt
Smash Hit
Sea Shadow
Hurricane Jet-Vac + Jet Stream
Sea Racing Action Pack (If I have enough money)

Planning on Pre-ordering the Starter Pack from Amazon and asking for same day shipping so I can at least play a little bit by that night, then I haven't decided whether I should pre order everything above minus the Sea Racing Action Pack and go with my dad early to Gamestop to find it, or to just go to Gamestop and buy everything else

I have a feeling that this game will be more than 50% Karting so I really want to see the game in action before buying. My plan is to watch the Twitches that day to see how the fighting aspect of the game really is. If they had Splat out that day, it would really make me want to buy the game immediately. Of the characters out on day one, Nightfall is interesting but I really need to see her in action as well.

It wont be 50% karting
Lou Studdert said at E3 there will only be one land section per level

Anyway my plans are
https://drive.google.com/file/...sp=docslist_api

100% sure about everything, cept' Dive-Clops (Love dive clops, but I don't even have enough money as it is.... I have 92 dollars, And my dad'll give me an extra 20 later on..

My current plans for launch day include:

●Wii U Starter Pack (possibly Dark Edition, but I want to see if regular Spitfire and Hot Streak will receive singles)
●Sea Racing Action Pack
● Combo Pack
● Combo Pack
●Stormblade
●Dive-Clops
●Dive Bomber
●Sea Shadow

If Wave 2 is available in Australia at launch, I'd also like:
●Burn-Cycle
●Stealth Stinger
●High Volt
●Nightfall

These ones are all in the "maybe" category:
●3DS Starter Pack (not sure if I'll have enough funds at launch)
●Smash Hit (can't decide if I want him and Thump Truck or not)
●Sky Slicer (can't decide between this or Buzz Wing, each has its own pros and cons)

I posted an old plan in the thread Bifrost linked to, but since then, I have conducted a new plan.

Wii U Dark Starter
3DS Starter
Fiesta
Crypt Crusher
Nightfall
Sea Shadow

Maybe Steel Plated Smash Hit and Stealth Stinger as well.

Everything that's coming out so far

I'll go at GameStop on Day One (or the following day, maybe) and buy:

- PS4 regular Starter Pack;
- Sky Slicer;
- Dive Bomber;
- Dive-Clops;
- maaaaaaaaybe Sea Shadow too because I want it so bad but... I don't know as of now.
It will indeed be my following purchase.

That's it.
I will try out the game for a week or so and decide if it's worth purchasing the other vehicles.
If not (and I doubt it) I will simply wait for the remaining original SuperChargers to come out, along with the Racing Action Packs.

I will probably be getting:
Wii U Regular Starter Pack
Wii Dark Edition Starter Pack
Either Sea Racing Pack (Depends on whether or not my mom will let me. If not, I will just get Dive Bomber)

I already preordered the 2 combo pack and racing pack, Will probably get the 3DS and dark starter for X360.

Where did you preorder the Combo Packs and Racing Packs from?

In Sweden, www.ginza.se
There was a lot of figures and vehicles to, only per-order because the racing pack had the same price as the combo pack, ~$28US each.

I'm really liking all of Wave 1 this year, Skylanders and Vehicles, so maybe all of them. Wave 1 also seems smaller this year, or is it just me? Not that this is a bad thing, it's not.

Sky Slicer is the only one I'm indifferent towards, so maybe I'll save that one for when it's marked down.

Wii U Starter Pack
Nightfall (possibly)
Seashadow (possibly)

I get the same impression. I guess it'll make collecting the figures that much easier.

I feel the same way. It's never been a vehicle which I've particularly liked.

Wii u dark stater
Stormblade
sky slicer
Sea shadow
fiesta

I traded off my overnight shift with a co worker so if tru has a midnight release I could go. Plans so far.

x2 DARK WII
x1 DARK WII U
x1 DARK PS4

Covering myself with the dark editions cause who knows how long they will last and im hoping for bogo 50% at tru.


As for actual figures, ive been out of the loop so I'll prob decide that night/day. All this year is going away for xmas for our son and myself. I prob will go for the none tru exclusive figures/variants thou as those tend to go faster then TRu ones.


Then i'll save up for Eon's of ghost roaster and boomer

My plan since I just got TONS of money for my bday (70 dollars)

My dad is paying for the Xbox 360 Starter Pack (Hopefully it's Dark Edition. He said I just have to wait to find out, I said I wanted it but IDK if he listened... )

With the other money I have, I'm gonna try to buy Nightfall and Smash Hit With Stealth Stinger (if they are out on day 1) If not, Dive-Clops and Stormblade with Sky Slicer. I believe the total without the Starter Pack for me is 41 dollars.
