I’ve been playing a bunch of Skylanders lately. I haven’t been playing through the story mode though, I’ve been playing all the characters through the Heroic Challenges.

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.
