Not enough people appreciate the sheer amount of character design that went into these games, as well as the amazing banter between the VAs and the soundtrack. Up until Imaginators, the amount of passion the devs put into this franchise was unparalleled. I never quite appreciated how immersive the universe of Skylands was as a kid, but after replaying the series during quarantine I realized that the devs not only created something memorable but also fresh and new - and surprisingly mature for a children's series. All of the other Toys to Life (such as Dimensions and DI) catered primarily to nostalgia in order to sell, but Skylanders will always be unique in that it forged its _own_ success thanks to nothing but the sheer ingenuity and creativity behind the dev team. That feeling when you put your first Skylander on the portal can only be described as magical....I'd like to personally thank the devs and the Skylanders community for all the memories we got to share!

@chrisackerman2452 2 года назад

Oh wow this brings back so many memories. When I was a kid my friend had got Giants for x-mas and we would occasionally play it together at his house. That was the first time I was exposed to this series. A year later my parents bought me swap force for the 360. This was huge for me because I really wanted to get the game for myself and actually told my parents of how fun I thought it would be to wake up every Saturday morning and play the game (I used to wake up at 8 every Saturday, before anyone else and I just watched TV and had my own alone time in the morning). It was also the very first video game that I every owned. I had played mariokart and some other stuff on my older sister's DS but Skylanders was the first ever game that was actually mine. I still remember the sheer excitement I got from placing Washbuckler on the portal for the first time. For a really long time I had never owned a video game outside of the series and my friends and classmates sometimes made fun of me whenever I said my favorite video game was Skylanders. As the years went on I bought Trap team, Superchargers, and Imaginators. I could only buy about 6-10 other characters per game and yeah there are ones I wish I got to own but I was happy with what I had. My favorite in the series would either be Swap force (partially because it was my first) or superchargers. Even though I felt there were a lot of problems with Imaginators and I could feel the series was dying in terms of sales and quality, I still felt sad when they announced the series was ending. This series gave me so many fond memories as a kid and is very likely the entire reason I got into video games. I did play Disney Infinity 2.0 and 3.0 but Skylanders will always be better to me because of the impact it had on me today. I realize as I am typing tall of this, my entire collection of skylanders is 5 feet from me. I don't think I can ever get rid of my collection because of how much the series means to me.

@diz9606 Год назад

Sometimes I'm surprised at how dark and mature the backstory of some characters could be. Like Ignitor, a proud and brave knight tasked to slay a dragon he had no chances of ever defeating who asked a witch (some people theorize that the witch is Hex) to make him an armor that could protect him from the dragon's fire. But instead, the witch tricked him and the armor had the opposite effect of instantly igniting his entire body and binding his soul to the armor forever. Like... That's a level of tragedy we'd expect from a fucking Dark souls Character right here.

I was a pre-teen when the first skylanders game came out, I played it with my brother and we have a lot of fond memories of the series, we even played with the figures creating stories. This was a nice look back and made me smile remembering the hours of gameplay. However, Superchargers was our last game, which honestly I’m kinda disappointed about. I would have Loved the character creation aspects of Imaginators and would have loved to try that thing where you could get it 3D printed. But oh well, I’ll still remember the games fondly and we still have all the figures we got along the way. We played almost all of them on the Wii so we never noticed the graphics, but we also had glitches with Trap Team, though I can only remember 1 clearly. During Chef Pepperjack’s challenge to get the colour variant (something about cheese) we were almost done and it froze, making a loud continuous buzzing noise. A bit disappointing but not too bad, we just reloaded and restarted the level, only for the same bug to occur on our second reload, so we never ended up beating it. But still overall, really fond memories of the series and I kind of wish the market hadn’t become so oversaturated.

I Ended up following the series until trap team for the 360. Now i can look at my shelf and see all of the memories encased in little figures. I'm sad to see this series go and that children of future generations wont be able to feel the way i did.

@SEGAjunky 2 года назад

This was such a fantastic walk down memory lane. I'm a die hard fan who loves all the creative characters over the story. Swap Force in my opinion was its peak, it had a lot to do and the graphics were amazing. I also agree that Imaginators was the weakest one. Not just for the story but how much you can do in it but length and missed opportunities. Story felt too short for me and the fact that old skylanders where weak in this game was such a middle finger to fans. Also as some one who owns 25 creation crystals I feel they could of done more with powers but the creation part was the strongest aspect of the game. My first creation was a Water/Knight. He was a frost velociraptor who I named Slasher. Although years later I regret not naming him Frost Bite lol. Over all this is a series that will always be in my heart till I die. I'm trying to make a story currently and some of the side characters are actually based on Skylanders. Specifically ones that were my favorites or had interesting concepts.

Great shoutout to Skylanders Characters List! They have probably the best source for looking up Skylanders and comparing prices, and they have pretty good sales on figures regularly. I rebuilt my current collection from scratch recently and they were super helpful.

I remember visiting my family in germany a few years ago and was dumbfounded when i saw skylanders figures selling for 1-2 euro a piece, 3 packs being 2.5 euro, to bad I gave my cousin the game and my 360 at the time cuz I would have bought all of them and replayed swap force for old times sakes and when I realise its been almost 9 years since I first played one of these games, what a time to be alive.

Makes me really happy to have a pretty much complete collection, except reposes, and variants, I have all of the original characters, minis, cosmetic items, & the vehicles, I might get the reposes and lightcore overtime, but I'm not worried about the variants as they are just diff colors of the reg color, whereas the reposes atleast have something new to them

@Mikeinoid 2 года назад

Yeah that's true. Hope you get the reposes you want!

@Panaramaguy 2 года назад

@@Mikeinoid I'm gonna try and go for all lightcores and reposes, as for variants, those I would get based on if I like the color palette more than anything, not worried to much about em! I can get most of the reposes I'm missing for probably 1-3$each on skylander Matt's website

@gluesniffer4291 2 года назад

Skylanders is definitely one of those game I will always love because it was a huge part of my childhood. I can distinctly remember going to a Game Stop when Giants was still the latest version, and struggling to decide if I wanted a 3DS game or the color variant Jini they had. I ended up getting the Jini and I don't regret that decision. Also ended up collecting every single giant figure because as a kid I just found them to be insanely cool.

@persiancarpet5535 2 года назад

This video hit me with Nostalgia. I played Spyros Adventure, Giants and Trap Team, all in Multiplayer. Favorite Skylander was Enigma because invisibility. I also remember Tree Rex being really op. Some memorable moments were the pvp mode from giants, the challenging difficulty of the first game, the air villains chapter in Trap Team crashing so many times we never returned again. Thank you for bringing back the memories of my childhood and the amount of money our parents spent on the franchise.

@sonlen796 2 года назад

I'd probably still be playing if they had found a way to make it so when an old character got updated for a new game the old figures still got the new abilities that the new version had. I would have loved to take my man Bash through all the games. I love the whole idea of being able to just bring your figures over to your friend's house when you wanted to team up with them. It gave the figures so much personality and emotional investment.

Skylanders out of all the toys to life games was the most unique. I mean all the other ones had house hold names like batman, jack sparrow, and many others. But Skylanders had all kinds of unique and original characters with there own movesets and personality quirks.

I own like 80 Skylanders, and I have played Swap Force, Trap Team, Superchargers (Wii version) and Imaginators I played them all on the Wii exept for Imaginators on the switch, I don't know wtf happened to you Wii but that's not how the games looked on mine, That Swap Force gameplay was extremely nostalgic (I think it's also one of the best games in the series) I loved the at the time new dark and light elements with Knight Light being my most powerful and one of my favourite Skylanders also I'm my multiple playthroughs of trap team, the only glitch I remember is a single enemy not spawning that I needed to kill, so I reset the level _this happened only twice_ You can reset creation crystals in the switch version, just go to change Skylanders find the imaginator and press the reset button
