Always kinda regretted not getting into Skylanders. Only game I played was Swap Force. And even then, I stuck with the dark edition starter set and didn't buy any other figures.
I wish I had a collect like this but all I had was what the starter packs had but my siblings lost the skylanders and left out the discs is I have to try to buy up as much stuff as I can unless Xbox does what I want to do and buy Activision
Every Skylanders fan's dream: Honestly, it makes me want to hunt for all the figures. Bro basically did Pokemon's slogan but in Skylanders. He collected them all. I really admire this :)
I remember winning one of the Quickdraw Rattle Shake figures from a fritolay's bag, and i was super excited because rattle shake was my most favorite skylander of all time :)
I really want to get a new skylanders game and if they do make one I want to introduce the series to my little nephew because he deserves to have something like this in his own childhood And since that won’t be happening for awhile I want to get a Wii U and buy older skylanders games and introduce him to the old skylanders
Man- I wish I didn’t end up having to sell all my skylanders stuff, it’s not like I had anything rare it’s just that trying to get back into it is a massive undertaking with how expensive everything’s gotten
Considering how long it’s been since skylanders was around I’m curious what direction they’d go with a new game, cause they could go more “grown” in a BOTW/TOTK style where it’s still goofy but more complex since all the people who liked those games as a kid are teens-young adults now-
The Ninjini Toys R Us Times Square event was definitely an official promotion. I was one of those in line to get one of the 300 free early pre-release figures on Feb 5, 2013. I worked around the corner and popped over around 4pm. Activation gave out white wristbands to the first ones to arrive to ensure everything was orderly. I showed up less than an hour before the release (4:30pm) and was surprised how short the line was. There was definitely nothing different about this figure from the eventual release. Just that you got it earlier than everyone else
i rather have a game collection like all the games re balanced and with all skylanders playable in all the games AND THAN if that does well a skylanders 7 cuz every game with every skylander would have years of replay value let us buy dlc levels with coins so things like lost imaginite mines and such are afordable and realistic
I'm one of those people who want a open world skylanders game, but I think they should feature a escalation mode allowing other people to play with someone else who could be from the other side of the world. Story wise I am kind of hoping for the following: after the events of imaginators the villains of the relm new and old have started to rise up and at the worst possible time as eon has retired and you a young portal master from another relm are now incharge. In a attempt to serve as the relms beckon of hope, you set your site's on building a city for the skylanders finding and bringing them back to help you while helping the citizens of the relm playing as the portal master while being able to take control of a skylander during a mission. With the end of the game being a full out war against Kaos who has teamed up with the dragon king Malafor and you have to fight them off and defeat them.
I have all the SSA sidekicks and Green Fire Bone Hot Dog. Wish I knew I didn’t have to buy the frito lay bags to get the free figures. I also have QuickDraw Rattleshake but I bought it not knowing about it’s frito lay promotion
I remember when I was around 6 watching the Skylanders Trap Team commercial where the kids find the portal and traps in their uncle's attic. I wasn't allowed to have skylanders til I was way older but at least I got to be amazed by such a cool ad back then.
theres still a video up on youtube of me getting the frito lay chip bag for the giants minis, and then unboxing them. somehow i knew every single contest in this video, and i miss it soo much
Honeslty, I Agree With The REST Of The ORIGINAL 2012 Community (Cause me myself, I've played and I finished EVERY Skylanders Game EXCEPT For SuperChargers) Sadly, I Don't Have The Figures Anymore, because I lost them while MOVING Out of my old house about 2 years ago 😭😭😭 The things I would do just to get my hands on Skylanders again..
Oof, knowing the contests were free would've been great, but I still think my parents back in the day wouldn't have liked me giving my address to someone regardless of if it was a chip company or something else.
Just finished watching both collection videos and what an incredible collection! Ive never been one for chase variants or all traps or crystals, 1 of each did good for me, same with in game variants, i was really one to collect everything shown on posters, and all misc items, and like i said 1 of each crystal and trap. Any variant to me is a bonus and i do have 1 inbox figure, eggscited thrillipede which is in really good condition. I would love to find a ufo hat somewhere though!
As a former skylander collector, seeing a collection like this now amazes me. I used to watch youtubers like Skylander Boy and Girl (Aka Fgteev from a few years ago) and 1ofwiisdom for the unboxing. I used to collect skylanders a lot. But when I was still in my teens and still feeling desperate for some money, I've traded-in my skylanders for some cash, and had pre-ordered the dark edition for swap force back then too. Except I mostly played Giants, Swap Force, and Trap Team only. Just looking back now and looking at the online prices on ebay. Skylanders are still surprisingly affordable. May have to get back to it, since recently I kept getting Skylanders trap team stuck in my mind
They should reprint a bunch of the older, and much rarer characters in general. Nintendo has been reprinting old amiibo and those seem to be selling good.
