Undead creation crystal in Wolfgang pack ( spikes)


Undead creation crystal in a single pack ( handles)

I wonder if they'll count differently in the collection. Seems almost like they'll be packaged randomly from the looks of things, there's like 3 elements for the rune vessel but none for wings, etc.

It'll probably be a almost random mix like traps . But there seems to be less molds this time which is good hopefully it's just a mix between 10 molds

Well since there's only 1 line of Creation Crystals on the poster, I guess we'll basically be left guessing to what the other molds of each element could be.

Activision....fool me once, shame on you....but fool me twice...

No way I'm chasing these crystals after what happened in Trap Team. Eat THAT, Activision.

The crystal itself seems to be unique according to the Element, though.
At least, it's the same for both of those Undead vessels.

Maybe they'll manage to make it less messy this year: for example, they could release just one mold per Element, as Single Packs, and then put a couple different ones in Combo, Triple and Adventure Packs.

EDIT: forget that, Mysticat's crystal has a different shape from the one shown in the GamesCom video.
Why did they wasted time coding all these possible shapes in-game...?

I don't know why people are upset at this. It makes sense! If you have multiple Creations of the same element, you would want to differentiate the Crystals a bit.

Plus it seems like the molds are exclusive to certain bundles so it's fine. Hopefully there's only a few molds in total. Traps had WAY too many different designs...

I don't think I'm really going to think about it too much as the stickers can separate them just fine. So I'm not going out of my way hunting for unique molds.

agreed..plus, the traps were severely unbalanced. 3 trap molds each for light & dark but 4 villains? and 6 molds per element for the classic 6 yet only life, tech & water even have 6 villains. and why 2 Kaos trap molds? so redundant and unnecessary...at least, as you pointed out, having a different crystal for different Imaginators made in that element makes way more sense

I hope there are no Yawn Creation Crystals. arrrgh

We saw the different molds too, the single ones are different from those in the triple packs, that goes for undead, water, magic, earth and i think it was life so far. Might have some better pics but haven't uploaded them yet.

Btw: Dunno if it was said already: Once you chose a Battleclass for your imaginator, the class will be saved onto the crystal forever. you can't reset the crystal to change the class. You can edit the Imaginator as often as you like to but not his class. So if you want every class for every element, you'll have to buy A FEW crystals

The game isn't finished yet and it can change but that's the actual status i got yesterday at gamescom.

Nice to know: They were able to reset the crystals at gamescom, because of the lifesize-imaginator contest. It was an extra menu or something in the menu of the ps4, not in game.

^I guess I'll have to watch gameplay videos of each class and read guides before making choices.

We all know not being able to reset is bad, but nothing's confirmed so don't bother getting worked up and ranting yet lol.

The crystals have a management tab after all. it'd pretty pointless to have a management tab to only have an " ownership" option in them, and possible the nicknames, but past videos have had that option in the personality tab.

Did anyone actually click on the management tab at gamescom? Coz all the videos I've seen just skipped over it.

Depending on where you played you were often watched by PR or someone else, so surfing the menus or something wasn't easy

A realization I had while ranting on GD ; if locked classes is a thing people will start happily using third party tools and stuff you can't go into detail on DS(and the one you can) to wipe them clean, since some will want to research the best choices on their character themselves and not looking up videos and whatnot.

You screwed up badly when this gets encouraged in your game. Really hoping they'll go back on at least this, Day One patch or not.

Is the single Magic crystal different than the one bundled with Mysticat? And are the ones in the triple pack different than the single ones, too?

From memory, the magic crystal in the triple pack was the same mold as the mystical double pack crystal. Not sure about the single park , people don't know how to camera good and do a slow scan across the display lol .


Also I was going insane watching several videos where people picked up and viewed the double packs and adventure packs closely but none of them looked at the back of the boxes lol . We could've got a glimpse at future double packs and adventure packs there lol. ( if they weren't blacked out like a section of the starter pack box was )

FGTV showed the side of the starter pack with the adventure packs and it had black tape over the Crash one. They probably did the same as SS16 and just blocked the backs from view entirely.

Anyone who collects Creation Crystal molds is flat out of their mind after all that has happened.

I anxiously await hearing Gamemaster complain about it.

Honestly I don't like these crystal things at all (wasn't fond of the Trap Team one either), so I would never get one of each just because "collecting Skylanders." I mean, there is more than enough figures to collect and we'll probably get at least 50% of them as variants as well. Money better spent on decent looking characters over hunks of plastic which looks like...crystal hourglasses...I guess?

I wonder, if there will be a sea of water ones. My TRU still has about 50 of the Trap Team water ones. I wonder if stores will stock up on these things much at all or have they learned from Trap Team that they are poison and they'll stop ordering up on them really quickly. I'm thinking that several will be rather rare, but honestly I couldn't really care, I'll let others worry about getting that next Yawn Trap. I'll stick with the ones that comes in the Starter Pack.

I don't think there even are Fire crystals in Wave 1, are there? I think at least that was fixed.

Does anyone have pictures of all the different molds shown so far? We should make a chart or something.

I can guarantee it will. Don't even start down that path. Or if you do, expect to be disappointed.

EDIT: Sorry, defpally beat me to the punch. And yes, can't wait for the GM threads.

Calling it now, there's gonna be ten molds for each element.

10 molds for 10 different battle classes.

It makes perfect sense for the crystals to have different molds.
What if you had two characters, and both of them were Magic, and they were Knights?
How would you know which character was which?

3 maybe 4 at most would be ok!!

The original picture showed 8 of the ten sculpts as being different!!!

I'm hoping that if there are multiple molds, they keep it at like 2-4 per element.
