Skylanders Swap Force Starter Pack looks like it will come with the game, a new portal, Series 3 Stealth Elf and Swap Force characters Wash Buckler and Magna Charge.
There is the introduction of a third iteration of some of the characters, like series 3 Stealth Elf, as well as the issue of having to buy a new Starter Pack this year as the old portal will be incompatible.
Unlike the Starter Packs for Giants this includes a previously released figure in the form of Stealth Elf albeit in reposed series 3 form that offers a new Wow-Pow.
