Gearshift and Night Mare are quite powerful.Anybody care to recommend a good, strong, versatile trap figure/master to get? Haven't gotten that to traps yet, so not sure whats good.
Bat Spin is awesome once you get her powered up (she's terrible at low levels). The projectiles she spits are bats, which damage what she aims at, then stick around and damage other enemies. She can also transform, and spit three bats at once (if you choose the transformation upgrade, which you should). Deja Vu is also great, and unique, when you get some decent power ups going. Wallop is the ultimate close-range specialist, and is awesome even at level 1. Kaboom is great at long range, though not as powerful per hit as Snap Shot, his rate of fire and bullet speed is much greater, and he can be powered up with ricocheting projectiles, making him nearly unstoppable. These two helped me pass many challenges that are otherwise neigh impossible, such as the sheep defender arena battles. If you're on a budget, get these two and you won't need anyone else. Gearshift is also a great, versatile fighter, with three different selectable fighting modes for one of her specials, and she looks really cool.Check your emails from Toys R us, got one saying buy any trap figure get another figure for $1.00 coupon, probably YMMV, but doesnt hurt to check the spam email they send,.

Wish I'd known that the last time they had this promotion (when Enigma first came out), as that's when I bought my figures.Three things that might be useful...Toys R Us will allow you to use three of your cereal or Happy Meals $1.00 off coupons on the 3 for $33 Trap Masters deal which makes them only $10.00 each.

Here's a nice article from Forbes which has some information about light/dark content.Any word on if there will be a Dark Edition for Skylanders Superchargers?

Code sent let us know if it worksI do have iPad and iPhone 6 plus so I'd be willing to try out the code and report back. Would you mind PMing me the code? Thanks
I got the same email. I thought the fine print says that these prices are only good if you preorder Superchargers at the store on Saturday.I have no idea, but do you have a tablet? Do you wanna try it and see? I'll give you the code for free if you post back here and let us know if it worked for you.
Also, Im sure everybody got this email already from TRU, but I was a little shocked at the price drops on the figures for the sale/promo on 6/06, looks like now is the time to stock up on any missing figures:
Thanks! I just tried the code and it is downloading Battlegrounds which means that the codes then in the retail boxes are still valid.Code sent let us know if it works

I wasnt sure about the wording myself, but its worth a shot to head over and see what happens, worst case I suppose you could just cancel or return the preorder, although I dont really think it will come thatI got the same email.

Good post! I'll be picking up a couple sets most likely. 1 for me, one for flip!Dont have alot of time to post, gamestop has the mobile starter pack marked down to $9.97, it comes with skylanders giants royal double trouble, not sure whats so special about him, but on ebay I see $20 -50 listings just for him, and gamestop will give $19 bucks store credit, so go get him if you want him or want to flip him:

Unfortunately ...Thanks! I just tried the code and it is downloading Battlegrounds which means that the codes then in the retail boxes are still valid.
Shallow only for us adults? What about for a 5 year old? Or is it just that bad?Unfortunately ...
Battlegrounds is one of those games that seems like it will be really cool when you first start, but then you figure out how incredibly shallow it is and stop playing.
However, the Starter Pack is totally wroth it for the Royal Double Trouble and the Bluetooth portal (if you also play Lost Islands, which is a pretty fun Farmville clone that gives you things to use for the figures you own). I think the collection app works too, but I've never tried that. It also works for Cloud Patrol which is a pretty fun, short attention span game in the vein of Temple Run or Fruit Ninja (easy to pick up and set down).
No, you need the USB portal for the WiiU.I just received a copy of Skylanders Swap Force (only the disc) for Wii U and Spyro's Adventure (everything included) for the 3ds. Does anyone know if the 3ds portal would work on the Wii U? I'm not really sure what to do with only the disc... It was a random gift
Do these work on a PS3 Portal? I just recently bought a couple skylanders so I'm not sure if these are only for tablets or if they can be used on any system.Dont have alot of time to post, gamestop has the mobile starter pack marked down to $9.97, it comes with skylanders giants royal double trouble, not sure whats so special about him, but on ebay I see $20 -50 listings just for him, and gamestop will give $19 bucks store credit, so go get him if you want him or want to flip him:

Check TRU/BBY for Roller Brawl. I see her a lot still. As for Scratch... bad news. He's been rare for months now, since shortly after Trap Team came out. It went up to $50 on eBay at one point, but it's a lot lower now.Sadly, the Swap Force single characters I still need for my daughter's birthday are non-existent at Toys R Us in DFW.
Damn Roller Brawl & Scratch
May look at what they've got as gifts for my nephew though.
It's actually a bit complicated to figure out at first for a kid, in my opinion. You have to figure out where to move on the board. The fights are pretty much tap tap tap to win. Over and over and over. Lost Islands is also probably not good for a 5 year old.Shallow only for us adults? What about for a 5 year old? Or is it just that bad?

Cloud Patrol is, however, a great game for a young child. And you can use the portal to load your figures in the game, which my young one loves to do.
Doesn't the 3DS portal link up to the game with the IR port or something? I've never used one so I'm not sure.I just received a copy of Skylanders Swap Force (only the disc) for Wii U and Spyro's Adventure (everything included) for the 3ds. Does anyone know if the 3ds portal would work on the Wii U? I'm not really sure what to do with only the disc... It was a random gift
To correct the previous posts here, you *can* use the 3DS portal from Spyro's Adventure on your Wii U. Spyro's Adventure came with a USB cable that you can use to plug it in, however it's going to be super-short. The nice thing is, it's a standard mini-USB cable, so you could replace it with a longer one if you have it lying around.I just received a copy of Skylanders Swap Force (only the disc) for Wii U and Spyro's Adventure (everything included) for the 3ds.

Oh, Ok. That may be correct, but you wouldn't be able to have two people play at the same time with the 3DS portal would you?To correct the previous posts here, you *can* use the 3DS portal from Spyro's Adventure on your Wii U.

I tried to get this deal this morning at ToysRUs and nobody at my local store knew anything about it. I tried to preorder the new Skylanders Supercharger game with it to get the discount and it still didn't apply with my rewards r us membership. Does anybody know if this deal is only available during a certain time period or at certain stores? Thanks for any help you can give me. Also can anybody shoot me the email that has this deal it in so I can show it to them?I have no idea, but do you have a tablet? Do you wanna try it and see?

you just gotta have that charisma bro. I had my 2y/o and 4y/o and told them i saw this deal and they heard nothing bout it either. I even got 2 of the gold ones (shroomboom and gill grunt) even tho i don't know if they were supposed to be included or not. i wish they had more but i only got 9. they just put the 6 giant figures as $2 each and the 2 skylanders as $3 for one and $.01 for the other. lightcore hex was $1.50 either way. i did the $1 preorder too but they said nothing changed, so they just manually adjusted. it helps if you give the cashier chic a wink and a nod with a hint of shoosh.I tried to get this deal this morning at ToysRUs and nobody at my local store knew anything about it.
