Happy 14th anniversary to Skylanders Giants 🥳 Today is when game got released in the AU. Arguably, the best Skylanders game in the series 🥰 In my opinion 👀

So I’ve got this new Spyro in box, but it looks a bit different. Almost like it’s flocked or dusty. Anyone else have this? It hasn’t been openend so it couldn’t collect dust

Hey guys, I was replaying Skylanders Giants (specifically the Arkeyan robot shooting level) and while looking at the bottom right HUD I noticed something super weird.

Next to the gold counter (⁠x 84⁠), the coin icon doesn't look like a Skylanders asset at all. It literally looks like the classic 3D Super Mario coin rotated 90 degrees to make it look like a generic metallic token/button.

The devs probably used it as a quick placeholder while coding that sequence and forgot to swap it out before shipping the game, thinking no one would ever notice.

Has anyone ever spotted this before? I've never seen it brought up anywhere in the community!

To commemorate the tenth anniversary of Skylanders Imaginators, I am unveiling the first of many custom variants I will be making for my take on the Skylanders Stat Card Game, Harvest Ambush, which uses an autumn-tree theme of red, orange, and yellow, as well as a more ashy-brown for his skin(?) than the original colour. Also his eyes are blue because I didn’t think the yellow eyes looked good with the new wood colour.

This is also the unveiling of my take on the Skylanders Stat Card Game, something that I always thought was a missed opportunity, and I have yet to see any that truly utilise the cards how I think they should. This is a massive project, and I have little time to work on it, so don’t expect news to come by quickly, but I intend many things for this game (of which I will not say in case they fall through).

Below I have listed five questions I expect people to ask and (rather long) answers to those questions, though feel free to ask any that didn’t make the list. If you don’t have any questions to ask, feel free to skip this section.

Why Ambush? Because I’m using the direct stats and not scaling weaker Skylanders to the same level, my resource system is balanced around Imaginators Skylanders having the highest stats but being the hardest to get out (except Elites, but that’s a special case I haven’t entirely worked out yet).  However, because variants strictly have higher stats (mostly), it creates a power shift to those with variants, so to remedy this I will be creating custom variants for Skylanders without variants and create cards for many chase variants.  I deemed the variants for Imaginators the highest priority for a few reasons: 1) Balance, as mentioned above, 2) They are the most annoying to make these variants for, due to the coloured highlights in either side, which have to be added back after the recolour, and 3) They were the first ones I actively planned for.  

What other variants are you planning?  Originally, I intended to unveil Harvest Ambush alongside another variant, Sakura Boom Bloom, based on cherry petals.  However, after looking at it, Sakura Boom Bloom contained a very majour error, so I need to continue working on it (to hopefully release soon).  Outside of that, I will be making another Legendary and another Mythical variant, as well as chase variants (Mainly Dec-Ember and Happy Birthday Ben Starcast) for those with them that I don’t make a custom variant.  As for the custom variants, the rest of those will remain a secret and you will just have to wait and see.  

Why make the cards yourself? No offense to the main provider of custom stat cards, CollectiverseBe (u/Sure-Policy-9854), but I don’t really like the format they use, as it differs from the original cards in multiple ways. I also prefer to do things myself than to rely on others (I say as I post a recolour of a ten year old artwork). Either way, I hope to make a way for the game to be played online, which is a goal I would need the files for, so I might as well make them myself.

What kind of game is it? The game’s rules and gameplay are not yet complete, though, generally, it will be a deck-building tcg (such as Magic or Yu-Gi-Oh) that is played action-by-action rather than turn-by-turn (like that of Oshi Push), as it allows for more interactive gameplay. The stats of the cards are used in battle with a simple equation, and magic items provide various effects to assist you. Much of the true gameplay hasn’t been decided on, however, so any feedback will be beneficial (even if I don’t respond, that doesn’t mean I didn’t see it and I’ll likely still take it into consideration when finalising the rules).

How long did it take to make Harvest Ambush? The simple answer: A while. I’m not going to say what I did is anything near actual artists’ works, though it did still take multiple days and least seven hours, probably more, so, though it may not be extremely high effort, it is definitely not low effort, especially with the blue and yellow highlights.

Side note: The writing of this post took over an hour.

And, once again, happy tenth anniversary, and I am open to any feedback you may have.

Second last game of the series!

Seriously, the fandom always goes insane after only a month or two. It's a coin flip if it'll be more funny crazy or annoying "the creators must hate us" crazy. once it hits years without content, the fanbase will never be normal again.

anyway rant aside, enjoy this reaction image I made ages ago and forgot to ever share. It's just a screenshot off the wiki but I made his eyes more crossed and a little bloodshot, made his frown bigger and slightly fried the image quality.

little recreation of SSA/Giants cover, with my 🐐 added in ;)

Another continuation of the shorter comic with Gill Grunt and Midoriya,This one featuring some more obscure faces.

Plus,a bit of a Introduction of my own Skylander designs.

And also a concept of Reaperstone is basically a anti-elemental ore(especially Undead) used and prohibited everywhere.,it's basically akin to Vengestone in Ninjago,but also a bit of Dark Energon from Transformers.(but puts you into a Purgatory without anything to fight back or return to normal or become Undead,hence the "Soul Killer" name.)

His name is Roast, I’m very proud of this but would like to share it! What are your thoughts of Roast?

This is my first attempt at actually customizing a skylander so lmk what you think 🙂

Design is also based on BlackRhinoRanger's S4 Trigger Happy Concept

Wow Pow: Rocket Science: His guns will be able to shoot up to 8 mini rockets at once, you can choose where they land or home in on enemies

og skylander: S1 Trigger Happy, made the arms and guns with modeling clay and painted the base red

Happy 15th Anniversary

These screenshots come from a Facebook Marketplace posting I fumbled a few weeks ago. That’s why the quality is so bad; nothing I can do about that.

But this exact same posting had a Snowderdash in it as well so it made me severely question what this blue Eruptor was. Since I didn’t manage to obtain it, I wanted to share this. Of course since an employee variant is there I’d love to think it’s a prototype, but it could also be a custom. It does look translucent though, which sounds fitting for a lightcore prototype.

Someone did purchase this, if somehow despite the low odds you see this my fellow North Carolinian, please share better pictures. I want closure.

Just wanted to ask about Red hot Tussle Sprout and those sorts of Villains. As Google wasn't giving me a straight answer and I couldn't find anything.

Is it Possible to Write Villains like Red Hot Tussle Sprout onto a Trap? I own an Earth Totem Trap but When Tussle Sprout is in the trap it only shows up as a normal one. Not the Red Hot Version.

If this is possible how so? I really just wanna have all the villain variants and only Need Red Hot Tussle Sprout and Steamed Broccoli Guy.

Just wanting to ask as the cheapest Red Hot Tussle Sprout Trap I can find is about $50 AUD. Would rather not spend that much on them if I don't have too.

I mainly ask for the 3 villains you can't play as for each cup those being

Land: Pain-yatta, Dr. Krankcase, and Broccoli guy.

Sea: Chill Bill, Noodle, and The Gulper.

Sky: Bad Juju, Hood Sickle, and Threatpack.
