Once again McDonald’s and Skylanders are working together to bring toys to the Happy Meal. This year the roster is a bit smaller than previous years with six new toys instead of nine that were released last year. I actually like that there are less, it is easier for people to collect them all. I did not have to co collect them because Activision sent them to me. What follows is my impressions of each figure.

Snapshot – Snapshot has his bow and arrow/sword traptanium weapon. The arrow snaps into place and with a little pressure it can be fired at the villains. Decent paint application and scaly crocodile skin.

Painyata – Nice to have a villain in the mix. Painyata is one of the most colorful and funny villains in the series. You can push his back and he slams down his lollipop.

Wildfire – The golden lion has his giant traptanium shield. You can wind it up and push a button to have the shield roll off toward enemies. You can also pose his left arm a bit.

Food Fight – This character comes complete with his tomato launcher. There is a disc that you put into the launcher. The disc has two sides one with a full tomato and the other with a smashed one. The disc does not fit firmly into the launcher so you need to hold it steady to launch it.

Wolfang – This character is on his knees and as you roll him he swings his arm like he’s doing the windmill with his guitar.

Wallop – This is probably my favorite figure of the bunch. Great paint applications and the way the pieces are put together. It looks great! There is a button on the back that swings his great mallets.
