Skylanders Trap Team hitting Toys”R”Us with exclusive character packs

Come this Sunday, the world of Skylanders won't be the same.

Well, it will be played almost exactly the same, the only difference is that there's a new Skylanders game – Skylanders Trap Team.

As per usual, Skylanders Trap Team will be launching with exclusive events and items at Toys"R"Us' across North America. Not only will the stores open at 8AM (some will open at midnight), there will be limited edition Legendary Series character packs available for purchase.

The Legendary Series is as follows:

Legendary Jawbreaker Trap Master (Available Sunday Oct. 5): Hailing from a race of robots who operated machines powering the fabled Skylanders Train, Jawbreaker once led an ordered existence full of rules and regulations. But, after an army of Gear Trolls tried to take over the Skylander Train for their own evil use, Jawbreaker quickly used his massive fists to pummel the trolls into retreat. Thanks to his quick action and ability to think for himself, Jawbreaker was made part of the Trap Team, where kids can use his Traptanium powered fists to deliver mighty blows to evil.

Legendary Nightmare Express Adventure (Available Sunday Oct. 5): Includes Legendary Blades and two magical objects, Piggy Bank and Hand of Fate, each of which help unlock a new level in the game. Blades came from a long line of dragons who guarded the dungeon of Scalos Castle, where the Golden Fear Serpent slumbered for a century. To protect his land, Blades made a deal with Golden Fear stay in the castle’s dungeon for eternity, even though he dreamed of becoming a knight and was terrified of the serpent. But, since the only way to defeat Golden Fear was to confront fear itself, the serpent vanished and Blades saved the kingdom. News of this bravery found its way to Master Eon, who made Blades a Skylander and gave him the honor of prestigious Legendary Navy and Gold Armor.

Legendary Déjà Vu Character (Available later this Fall): Echoing the abilities of the original Magic Element Skylander Déjà Vu, this Toys“R”Us exclusive Legendary version has been immortalized as golden statue and guardian to stand watch and defend Skylands against any evil that threatens it. Déjà Vu once created a machine that would make the perfect three-minute egg in half the time, which was also wanted by a dastardly group of slugs determined to acquire super speed. Rather than lose her work to evil, Déjà Vu jumped into action and set the clock’s hands to 13, causing a time overload and blast that gave her an amazing control over time. She is now known for her incredible time-shifting powers to turn back the clock on evil, as well as for her catchphrase, “Did That Just Happen?”

So, are you ready for Skylanders Trap Team to hit the Nintendo Wii, Wii U, 3DS,  Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 — as well as the iPad, Kindle Fire and Android tablets on October 5th.
