I’ve got a bunch of new Skylanders Giants toys to review and so I decided to take out all of the existing sets that I already had. I put together a fun backdrop to use for photos while I made the most recent videos. I was able to create four of them for some Hero and Enemy packs. I also have five more battle portals to review but will have to do them next week. So I have four videos on YouTube that are almost ready to post. I’ll be doing that soon. Taking all of the sets and putting them on the Imaginarium LEGO table showed me just how many MEGA Bloks sets I had. Wow! There are a ton of them and so many fun Skylanders Giants figures. So, be on the lookout for the latest in those MEGA Bloks reviews. I did something a bit different to the videos this time around. I hope that you take a look at them and let me know what you think. Thanks.
With Skylanders Swap Force being released in October for PS3, XBox 360, Wii and Wii U you might not realize that a Nintendo 3DS version is also being released. With each release of a Skylanders Game there has been a separate 3DS game put out as well. In the past the 3DS game had the same figures that the full console games had except they had one special figure not found in those sets. For Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure there was Dark Spyro. For Skylanders Giants there was Punch Pop Fizz. Those figures eventually got released in very limited quantities as single pack character but when the game is initially released that is the only way to get the character.
With the release of Skylanders Swap Force the 3DS version is going to come with two two Swap Force characters, Rattle Shake and Free Ranger that can swap their tops and bottoms as well as Volcanic Eruptor (A series 3 figure which is a repose of a character that has been in all 3 releases of the game). The full console game is going to come with Swap Force characters Blast Zone and Wash Buckler. So I am really excited that by getting both the console game and the 3DS game you are not getting any duplicate characters. The full details about this game can be found after the jump.
