Today I came home from picking up Eva to find that there was a package waiting for me. Inside that package was a very rare Skylanders Giant, Scarlet Ninjini! The figure is mine to keep and I have no obligations to review it, but I wanted to give you my 100% personal opinion of the figure. I was so excited because I had heard that it would not be released here until May 19th. I certainly hope that is the case and that Scarlet Ninjini isn’t just limited to the overseas market because that is where people are getting her at this time. It is good to see that she’ll be released in the US as well. I made a little video about Scarlet Ninjini.
I also took a few comparison shots as well.
As you can see Scarlet Ninjini is more of a Teal skinned figure with a red costume and dark hair with gold swords. I like the look of her very much, but I am more of a fan of her original coloring. Maybe I just like her with red hair over the dark hair. Scarlet Ninjini is a great addition to our Skylanders collection.
You can find out more about Skylanders and Skylanders Giants through social media channels and the Skylanders website. You can follow Skylanders on Twitter and on Facebook and there are fun videos on YouTube as well.
In the past few years I’ve been to a ton of stores looking for new Skylanders figures. While walking the aisles I’ve heard countless parents who have no clue what they are looking for for their kids. I hear the wrong character names, wrong elements and many more wrong things being said. Parents really need to do their homework on Skylanders.
Luckily I’ve got exactly what parents need to get up to speed. You can download the Skylanders Homework pack today.
The Homework pack features five chapters of fun – one for every week day:
Monday: History (Skylanders story – SSA and Giants)
Tuesday: Science (elemental sources)
Wednesday: Characters (character’s abilities, strengths and weaknesses)
Thursday: Technology (practicalities of what and how to buy and play)
Friday: Art (to include dot-to-dot and drawing of key characters)
Quiz sheets at the end of each chapter testing parents on what they’ve learned that day
You can download the Homework pack along with info cards about favorite characters.
I have a giveaway of a hard copy of this homework pack that also comes with reward charts to stick on the fridge door with a Skylanders sticker that children award parents once a chapter is completed successfully. And the winner also gets one of the popular characters.
