Found a SuperChargers Promo on vimeo that shows some new game footage (with the additional subtitles about noodles for some advert).

https://vimeo.com/135207972

Cool promo! But seriously, what the hell was up with that noodles stuff...?

Wow some pretty amazing footage like how it looks like you can race as villian such s chef pepper jack and hood sickle.

Now that's a Promo.

Has anyone uploaded it to YouTube?
I cannot watch Vimeo on my tablet.

Seeing as how this was posted early and not uploaded by the Skylander devs, it'd be safe to not post the video for a while until they officially reveal it. Unless one wants to get a strike from them.

Looks like villains are selectable characters for online mode. Perhaps trophies unlock extra villains or give them special perks?

Or perhaps the villains are normally just CPU opponents, and only a select few can be playable through the trophies. It's far too early to tell.

my old YouTube I uploaded on there in case of Copyright. Enjoy it

You have an ad ALL ABOUT NOODLES and you lack the titular guy. For shame VV.
Also the Vimeo one is down, SilverWolf's working, for those who just got here.I'll leave my thoughts for later, news start appearing just as I'm back to having appointments early in the morning

I like the music.

I saw an HD shot of Hex! I know it's nothing special but it makes me happy. However I think the first Land vehicle is Thump Truck, but I'm not sure whose Sea vehicle it was behind Reef Ripper. And DD Trigger Happy looks frightening in game. Oh and I also saw Dino-Rang, two old characters in a new trailer... what could that mean?

Dino-rang is getting an Elite, so they probably had him lying around for the recording session. But Hex, hard to explain, even more considering they were together in a SSA Triple Pack. VV getting old figures five years late and using them to record?
Also, no luck on seeing Smash Hit, Splat is driving his vehicle and all you can distinguish are her horns, the rest is pretty dark and desaturated... Like DD Triggs, which makes me think this is the Wii version.

Ok, that trailer sure hyped me (and I needed it frankly) but also raised more questions.

So Pepper Jack, Hood Sickle and Wolfgang are playable or still in-game.
Maaaaaybe the different Trophies will unlock multiple villains instead of just the associated Doom Raider.
After all they are the Sky and Sea Trophies not the Golden Queen or Wolfgang(?)'s ones.
We'll see.

*I still can't get why they didn't simply fully supported traps but... OK*

There seems to be a lot of variety in terms of levels, tracks and vehicle areas.
I like this a lot!
Especially one Sky area in which Stealth Stinger was flying which looked like a foggy thorn forest.

I saw some rather interesting mods and... Aaaaah... Clay-made SWAP Force Skylanders models are back... Yaaaaaay...
Can't wait to see how they'll look on the Trap Team's characters...
Speaking of models... What is up with Kaos...?
Really, is it so hard to keep the same models...?

Those things aside... Great trailer!
A bit too fast to spot new characters/vehicles but works perfectly to rise my hype.
Now I can't wait to see what GamesCom will have in store for us.

Can't be clay models if the previous gameplay had pretty detailed models, you might've not seem the gameplay but the HD screenshots show a lot. Unless they screwed up with just Triggs and Kaos, but for the latter seriously what the hell is wrong with the 3D artist on VV people have this thing called lips, not some disgusting skin colored gums. There was an entire boss phase on his mouth and they still screw it up.

Finally some new details, even that's not official.
About the old figures in new trailers, I think that VV just want to remember the old figure compatibility to the players.

About the graphics, I personally find Trap Team way better. The graphics of this game just look... strange to me. See Trigger Happy. I hope that, when the game releases, we see better things in this aspect.

In a **** near the end it had 2 Hood Sickles and 3 Wolfgangs all ready to race. So I'm thinking maybe online you can play as all villains, but only for the racing online portion. Cause now we've seen cluck, chief pepperjack, Golden queen, wolfgang, hood sickle, and of course Kaos. And we also know count money bones and baron von shellshock are back as well. Would be a nice surprise for people who wanted all the villains, even if it is online racing. But still.

yaaay!

This trailer.... IT'A BOOTIFUL! I love the beginning Laughed so much at that. I can't believe how much we saw! Thump Truck must have been the vehicle at the beginning, And we see some of DD Trigger Happy AND MORE VILLAINS!!!

I feel like buying lots of noodles now. That they are quite healthy and very exciting like SuperChargers. "They Live" advertising. Curious why they would make a vid just for a short noodle sale. Are the managers of Woolworth's really supposed to take time to watch this and would they really care? Is this for a handful of noodle reps? Seems a bit wasteful and unnecessary but then again it's probably expected and part of the deal when you spend something like half a million for a Skylanders branding promotion. I am jealous though how people who doesn't really care get to see top secret stuff. Glad this one was leaked.

I noticed half way though that something (a hang glider?) was following a sea vehicle. I wonder what that was about. I saw a land vehicle running over a town, that was the best part of this whole SuperChargers thing thus far for me. Destruction rules! LOL I'd so enjoy a mini game where you run over stuff far more than any racing one.

Maybe there's something we don't know yet... I mean, none of us saw playable Minis or Eon's Elites coming, so maybe there's something new where Hex is included. Everything I said probably won't happen, but who knows?

My question is Why is Cluck have a vehicle..... And why is he playable... DIS DON'T MAKE SENSE! He wasn't even a villain in trap team

Glad to see the visuals of Swap Force coming back. Way higher quality than Trap Team. There's times you can see the low poly count on the models in Trap Team. For instance, Wallop has square legs on the ps4 version. I expect to see some awesome looking HD models for Trap Team characters in Superchargers.

It'd rather see polygons than see the texture artist sleep on the job and have everything look flat.

The Hex shown looks normal and using un-upgraded Phantom Orbs. Unless she's getting an Elite alongside GR, no differences to be seen from a S1.

Really...?
Good Eon, look at the Double Dare Trigger Happy picture in the news topic or simply look at the colors.

I know the game will probably have outstanding graphics... But this trailer doesn't showcase them at all.

Also agree with Bifrost.
Trap Team had some amazing textures unlike many games these days which simply rely on graphics or models.
As you can see from Trigger Happy's dress that's a rather flat model.

Everything look waaaay better than SWAP Force AND Trap Team (even if I prefer TfB's style)... Except for the old characters models and certain new Skylanders.
But again this video is only a hype generator and it does that perfectly.

Well, the new Elites don't have many differences from their S1/2 version either, only the metallic weapons. As I said, it was probably only wishful thinking what I was saying.

This is awesome

Okay, so I just saw that promo.
And now I want this game even more than I ever have.
Also I now have a craving for noodles.

I wanna see a Grinnade vehicle.

It was a very good promo. Seems to be hyping up a good number of people. It showed great variety over what we've seen of this game in the past, and possible Thump Truck, which I will be getting.

As for the villains I hope there are 3 or 4 trophies. Kaos being his own thing that can be played in any terrain races, or he is the sky trophy, Golden Queen is sea, and a land. It'd be awesome if say you put the Golden Queen trophy on and it not only unlocks the extra sea racing level (s), but also unlocks a number of villains that are usable for sea races. Like 14 or so from Trap Team.

I think the noodles thing was to block from copyrighting

What?

It's an ad about the partnership with a noodles company. It just doesn't look like it was made for parents to pay attention to, probably other food companies.

Oh...

Sorry SilverWolf2308, they took the vid down. Glad I got to watch it, I'm betting we'll get to see most of it again come Wednesday in a proper video.

I dunno, I feel that maybe the Triggs and Kaos stuff might be from the Wii version. Or maybe Soul Gems drastically change character appearances now? Who knows.

TTD's still up, I think, downloaded it an hour ago to look for freeze frame stuff.

EDIT: Nope, set to private. But yeah, after tomorrow we'll probably have something cleaner.

Gahh! I was gonna watch it again and get Screenshots! ACTIVISION WHY DO YOU GOTTA BE SO SECRETIVE ABOUT EVERY LITTLE THING!

Well the quality is bad, but I still have it, with TTD's watermark though. Do you need any in specific(that I didn't put on the news thread)?

No i just wanna watch it again

I got all the lenticulars from the Trap team 2 min noodles promotion they ran last year.

Bye bye soon, skylandsfan's video. Hello copyright strike.

There are still plenty of reposts on YT, just do the good old trick of Today filter on tags related to the game.

It isn't mine. I just posted the link so he could see it again. I'll take the post down.

I haven't seen it

Aw man, I missed it,

Well you had to be yesterday to watch it.

Just wait for Gamescom, guys, it's less than two days if we don't have another leak.

Splat seems to have some sort of racing helmet on. She's featured in quite a few parts of the trailer (obviously), but I find it interesting how they're advertising her so much.
