Each Year Skylanders does a great Halloween themed character. Halloween Eye-Brawl was one of the best and this year we get another great one, Frightful Fiesta. I pre-ordered that Skylanders SuperChargers figure from Gamestop and he is fun to play. Here is a little video of Frightful Fiesta and his bio.
Several Halloweens ago, the legendary Pumpkin Pixies challenged Fiesta and his mariachi band to a duel of music in the Land of the Undead. The Pixies began with a bone-chilling tune, but Fiesta immediately followed with a spooky song of his own. On and on they played, each song more haunting than the one before it. And soon, the entire pumpkin patch was dancing. What began as a challenge had turned into the party of the year! So impressed were the Pumpkin Pixies that they used their magic to make Fiesta an honorary pumpkin for that day – and every Halloween thereafter!
Another part of Halloween celebrations with Skylanders are the Dark Edition Starter Packs. This year there are a ton of them and there are many Dark Edition characters. We have Dark Spitfire, Dark Hot Streak, Dark Super Shot Stealth Elf, Dark Sea Shadow, Dark Turbo Charge Donkey Kong, Dark Barrel Blaster, Dark Hammer Slam Bowser and Dark Clown Cruiser. I have a few of these Dark Editions and they are pretty sweet.
The Skylanders SuperChargers Dark Edition includes unique toys that true Portal Masters will want in their collections. All Dark Edition Starter Packs is available for $99.99 and includes Dark Spitfire, Dark Hot Streak, a two-sided ultimate collector poster and the highly sought-after Kaos Trophy, which is the only way to unlock special Kaos gameplay content.
Dark Super Shot Stealth Elf and Dark Sea Shadow are available exclusively in the Dark Edition Starter Packs for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation® 3 and PlayStation® 4. The Wii U™ Dark Edition Starter Pack includes Dark Turbo Charge Donkey Kong and Dark Barrel Blaster, exclusively. A different, unique adventure including Dark Hammer Slam Bowser and Dark Clown Cruiser is available on Nintendo’s Wii™ system.
Here are a couple of my unboxing videos for the Dark Editions.

And one last thing that is really cool is this video for how to make a Kaos themed pancake. I wish I could make something cool like that. It looks like something that I would make and it would turn out disastrous.
