SuperChargers SuperCharged Wave 2 Unboxing

Skylanders SuperChargers SuperCharged Wave 2 Unboxing ThumbWe’re back! It’s been only six days since we unboxed our first haul of our Wave 1 characters and game for Skylanders SuperChargers. Wave 2 is a little smaller but that is to be expected with less characters and vehicles to collect this year. So today we unbox the Wave 2 individual character packs (Smash Hit, High Volt, Burn-Cycle, Shark Tank, Stealth Stinger, and Jet Stream) which hit Toys R Us and Amazon today. They should hit other retailers soon, as will the first Triple Pack and a couple of dual packs if you are waiting for deals.

Wave 2 SuperChargers Out Now

by

Skylanders SuperChargers Wave 2Yesterday I looked back at the Trap Team articles that I wrote about the launch of Wave 2 and was surprised to see, that I got the Wave 2 characters for Trap Team just 2 days after launch. So I made a trip this morning to my local Toys R Us. At first I saw nothing new on the shelves, but after talking to the employee I learned that Wave 2 SuperChargers had just come out today. They had the boxes behind the counter and not even on the shelves yet. So I was able to pick up each of new single pack characters for Wave 2. I checked other retailer’s websites, and it does not appear that Wave 2 is out anywhere else except Amazon.com. Typically Toys R Us gets the jump by a week or two on other retailers, so if you are sticking to GameStop or Best Buy, you may have to wait a while. Best Buy also still has a couple of Character Dual Packs on the website with a release date of 10/2. I would guess this is when they would have the rest of Wave 2 as well.

Skylanders SuperChargers Chapter 01 ThumbToday we jump into Skylanders SuperChargers for the first time. We planned on only playing the first chapter which we do. However, the chapters are very different from years past. They seem to be shorter this year, and they all merge together with no real conclusion to each one. In the future we will put multiple chapters together. For now enjoy this story filled taste of Skylanders SuperChargers.

Golden Queen – Villain Review

by

Golden Queen - Villain ReviewGolden Queen – Villain Review

The Golden Queen is an Earth trappable villain and is the leader of the Doom Raiders in Skylanders Trap Team. She is a wicked queen made entirely of gold and is rich beyond her wildest imagination. But that isn’t enough for the Golden Queen. If there is more to be had, then have it she wants. So she stole and stole and stole, but it was never enough, there was always more to be had. Through evil sorcery she even learned how to turn people and objects into solid gold. However, that was still not enough. The idea that there was treasure in Skylands that was not hers infuriated her. She began a quest to take every last cent of it, but she couldn’t do it alone. That is when she formed the Doom Raiders – the most notorious group of villains ever assembled. She promised riches, world domination, and even all-you-can-eat shrimp just to recruit special criminals to her cause. Together they terrorized Skylands until Master Eon and the Trap Masters put a stop to them and locked them up in Cloudcracker Prison!

SuperChargers SuperCharged Wave 1 Unboxing

by

SuperChargers SuperCharged Wave 1 Unboxing ThumbSkylanders SuperChargers is out! We spend the night/morning/day running around collecting all of the wave 1 characters and games that we wanted. We took advantage of the Buy one get one 40% off of characters at Toys R Us. We took advantage of the 20% off for Gamers Club Members at Best Buy to get the Dark Editions for $79.99, and we hunted down all of the store exclusives at Best Buy, Target, and Toys R Us. In the end, we think we have all of the Wave 1 characters that we care about. We didn’t get an “regular” versions of the game, so we are missing the regular versions of the characters that we have dark versions of. But we’ll get those later when the starter packs get super cheap and we want to play the game on a different system, like maybe the 3DS. We also have the Nintendo versions coming in a bit, so we will probably unbox those in a separate video. So for today we have our SuperChargers SuperCharged Wave 1 Unboxing. Enjoy!

Kaos Plays Nightmare Mode (Ch 17-18)

by

Kaos Plays Nightmare Mode (Ch 17-18) ThumbToday I play through the last two chapters of Skylanders Trap Team. I am only using Kaos and I am playing on the Nightmare difficulty. These last levels include the boss battles between the Golden Queen and Kaos himself. I haven’t had much of a problem with the boss battles using Kaos until now. These battles were considerably harder on Nightmare difficulty than they were on Normal, and trying to use Kaos was a bit more of a problem this time. Check it out!

Bat Spin – Skylander Review

Bat Spin - Skylander ReviewBat Spin is a new Undead core Skylander making her debut in Skylanders Trap Team. She comes from the underworld, where as a child she was separated from her people. She searched for them for months but was unable to find them. She did find a colony of magical bats who welcomed her and raiser her as one of their own. She spent many years living with the bats, then one day their colony was invaded by an army of Undead Trolls. Bat Spin used the powerful abilities that she had learned from the bats growing up and essentially turned into one of them. She defeated the army of trolls and saved her colony. This caught the attention of Master Eon who saw at once that she would make a great Skylander.

Wolfgang – Villain Review

by

Wolfgang - Villain ReviewWolfgang – Villain Review

Wolfgang is an Undead trappable villain that you can capture after defeating him at the end of the thirteenth level – The Future of Skylands in Skylanders Trap Team. Wolfgang wasn’t always a werewolf. He used to be a brilliant musician who was set to marry a beautiful princess. Before the wedding he planned to release his ultimate symphony. He was convinced that all of Skylands would love it and crown him as the best composer of all time. Unfortunately no one liked it. It actually physically hurt people to listen to it. Wolfgang had unintentionally discovered the musical note for pain. All of the people in Skylands shunned Wolfgang, and the princess refused to marry him. This drove Wolfgang completely mad, transforming him into the werewolf he is today. With his life in ruins, he turned to a life of crime, terrorizing the royal subjects and using his music as a weapon. The Golden Queen realized that Wolfgang could make a powerful ally as long as she could control his rage and keep him in line. That is when Wolfgang joined the Doom Raiders.
