MEGA Bloks Skylanders Giants – Eruptor Battle Portal

Eruptor on  his MEGA Blocks Battle Portal - Skylanders Giants

I was sent the MEGA Bloks Skylanders Giants Eruptor Battle Portal to play with and review. Opinions are, as always, 100% my own.

Eruptor is one of those hulking Skylanders figures. He’s not too fast or accurate with his attacks. He splatters hot lava everywhere and destroys those who get too close. He’s got giant club-like hands and a big body. So, in terms of movement the figure can move his arms and rotate his hands. He can also move his legs and feet. His body is one central mass, almost like an egg.

The battle portal is a series 2 portal and has the translucent red blok so that the portal lights up red when it smashes into things. The set comes with a battle bumper, key blok, hourglass blok and a fire element blok as well. The enemy included is a Frigid Chompy. The Frigid Chompy can freeze a Skylander in his tracks.

With Eruptor the Fire Element team is nearly complete. Flameslinger, Ignitor and Hot Dog have already been released and also the forthcoming Hot Head figure that is coming out with Flynn’s Rescue ship. We just need to get Sunurn and all figures will have been released.

Early Skylanders Surprise

I was in Target today and they had a Lightcore Hex Skylander out on the shelf. I know that this isn’t supposed to be available until the release of Skylanders Swap Force so I grabbed it to see if I could buy it. I was unable to because they have a do not sell before October 13 stop order in the computer. So, I was unable to buy Lightcore Hex. No big deal I’ll be getting at least one of these on release day for Skylanders Swap force.
