I went to GameStop tonight and picked up the Skylanders Battlegrounds iOS exclusive pack that had Royal Double Trouble and the Platinum Treasure Chest plus a bluetooth base so that it works directly with the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. What makes Royal Double Trouble special is that the repaint has purple arms. It is a repaint of the Series 1 mold and not of the series two mold. But something that makes this even more interesting is that this figure is on the series two base. This means that you can play the character as if it was a series two character and that means unlocking both upgrade paths plus having a Wow Pow.
The one Skylander that Eva was most excited about for Christmas was Chill. I think this was because of a couple of reasons. Chill was one of the first new Skylanders Giants characters I heard of and when I did I told Eva all about her. We read her bio and learned all we could about her. The second reason was that she is a female character. There are not a lot of female characters in the Skylanders game but Skylanders Giants gave us a bunch of them and that made Eva very happy. Chill is a fun character and the other night Allison and I played together. She used Chill and I used Fright Rider and Pop Fizz. Chill has some fun abilities which are ice based. One ability is to create a wall of ice blocks and then to push those blocks at bad guys to attack them. She’ll get even more powerful as we continue to use her and I look forward to seeing what else she can do. Continue reading Shoot to Chill→
