I got the last Whirlwind and a triple pack with Elf, Sonic Boom, and Wrecking Ball at Target on Friday. They also had a couple of Darklight packs, a pack with ice characters/area, and one or two more singles.
Some guy about my age came as I was there and said "Yes! They have it!" on the ice one and grabbed it and ran back to the front of the store. I asked if that one was a really cool one, he said "It's just really popular, out of stock now, probably until next week." I thought, next week? I could wait a week.
Anyway, I'm going to give these to my boy today on condition that I get one of them to be 'mine' since he's got like 12 others.
Is there enough game play added by different elements to make it 'worthwhile' (I admit that they're cool and probably fun just as figures on their own.)
If I were to start a brand new game, I couldn't (shouldn't) use any of the characters he's already used, because they've already leveled up and stuff, is that correct?
