Big Bubble Pop Fizz Review with Soda Skimmer

Big Bubble Pop Fizz Review with Soda Skimmer

Big Bubble Pop Fizz Review with Soda Skimmer Big Bubble Pop Fizz is the SuperCharger version of a fan favorite Pop Fizz for Skylanders SuperChargers. He is a magic Skylander which has had many appearances in the games since his debut in Skylanders Giants. He’s always been a mysteriously interesting character. No one knows who he was before he became an alchemist. After years of experimenting with magical potions his true appearance (and color) has been lost. He’s a little crazy and his experiments are usually reckless causing more accidents than one can count. This had made it really hard for him to find a lab partner, so in hopes of making himself more appealing to others, he tried to make the most effective charm potion ever. Unfortunately that didn’t go too well, and instead, he turned into a big wild berserker. But that didn’t really change him. He still uses his prowess for potions and his wild berserker form to help the Skylanders fight off the evil in Skylands.

Spitfire Review With Hot Streak

April 4, 2016 by Michael McNutt

Spitfire Review with Hot Streak

Spitfire is a new Fire element Skylander for Skylanders SuperChargers. Spitfire comes in most versions of the SuperChargers starter pack. He is not included in the Nintendo versions as he was replaced by one of the Nintendo Amiibo Skylanders. However, Nintendo fans can purchase him separately. It seems like every year one of the Skylanders that comes with the Starter Pack turns out to be one of the best of the year. I think Spitfire continues that tradition. He has a few different styles of attack and each seems powerful and effective. He’s also extremely fast. In fact he was on his way to becoming the fastest drivers in the Super Skylands Racing Circuit when he was sent into a fiery crash by a goblin racer. Most thought his career was over but surprisingly, he returned and was ready to race again three weeks later. Unfortunately, that was right when Kaos unleashed the Sky Eater on Skylands. The racing season was stopped and Spitfire sought out Master Eon to form a new elite driving team – the Skylander SuperChargers.

Fiesta Review With Crypt Crusher

May 7, 2016March 21, 2016 by Michael McNutt

Fiesta Review with Crypt Crusher

Fiesta Review with Crypt Crusher Fiesta is a new Undead element Skylander for Skylanders SuperChargers. Fiesta is another musically motivated Skylander, much like Cobra Cadabra, Echo, and to some extent Head Rush. They all use musical instruments or their musical voices to attack enemies. Fiesta was once the head of a popular mariachi band in the personal court of Count Moneybone. He and his bandmates would play music for the new arrivals that entered the Underworld. One day, those new arrivals were a bunch of Skylanders who had come to stop Moneybone from unleashing a robot army on all of Skylands. Fiesta realized he had been fooled by Moneybone into thinking that he was kind and generous. Fiesta and his bandmates quietly distracted the robot army allowing the Skylanders to infiltrate Moneybone’s mansion. The Skylanders did not realize that they were getting help from Fiesta, but Master Eon noticed and recruited Fiesta into the Skylanders.

Super Shot Stealth Elf Review With Stealth Stinger

Super Shot Stealth Elf Review with Stealth Stinger

Stealth Elf Review with Stealth Stinger Stealth Elf is back after taking a one game break from Skylanders. She didn’t really appear (as a full figure) in Trap Team, though her mini Whisper Elf was playable in the game. Her new SuperChargers version is called Super Shot Stealth Elf and she flies the Stealth Stinger for her signature vehicle. There is also a Dark SuperShot Stealth Elf which is the second time Stealth Elf has had a “dark” version. The first Dark Stealth Elf came out during Skylanders Swap Force. This year though, she will have an all new set of attacks, as all SuperCharged versions of Skylanders have new attacks. She still has her stealthy attacks, but she replaces her melee focused twin blades for a rapid firing Dagger Cannon. How does such a small elf wield such heavy firepower?

Hurricane Jet-Vac Review with Jet Stream

Hurricane Jet-Vac Review with Jet Stream Hurricane Jet-Vac is a new SuperCharged version of Jet-Vac for Skylanders SuperChargers. It seems hard to believe, but he has had a different version of his character in each game since he debuted in Skylanders Giants. He even has another legendary version of his character this year. He is the only Skylander to have a second legendary version. Despite his longevity as a Skylander’s character, his supercharged version will mark the first time that his move set has changed. He still uses a powerful vacuum jet-pack to help him fly since he gave his wings away to help a mother and her children escape when he was young. However, this version of his character no longer has a set of flying attacks. He does however, retain his iconic vacuum suction attack but now it’s supported by a range of new attacks.

Smash Hit Review with Thump Truck

Smash Hit Review Smash Hit is a new Earth Skylander for Skylanders SuperChargers. He is a Warsupial, a rare species known for their skill in combat. They are also known for finding and smashing any dangerous artifacts that are found from the Arkeyan Empire. So it is easy to see why Smash Hit likes to break things. Master Eon took notice of Smash Hit’s amazing skills with a wrecking ball when he was able to dismantle an Arkeyan Conquertron in under an hour. Master Eon recruited the Warsupial and his Thump Truck into the SuperChargers so they could help wreck Kaos and his Sky Eater.

Deep Dive Gill Grunt Review with the Reef Ripper Deep Dive Gill Grunt is a new SuperCharged version of Gill Grunt for Skylanders SuperChargers. He has had a new version of his character in each Skylanders game. Unlike his other versions, this version for SuperChargers has a brand new set of attacks.

His new attacks though make him more powerful and faster than ever. Villains of Skylands beware! You will definitely want to “Fear the Fish”.

Stormblade Review with Sky Slicer

Stormblade Review with Sky Slicer Stormblade is a new Air Skylander for Skylanders SuperChargers. She has always been one to push boundaries. At a young age, she jumped off of her home island and plummeted through the blue sky in search of the bottom of Skylands. She found that no bottom existed.

Shark Shooter Terrafin Review with Shark Tank

Shark Shooter Terrafin Review with Shark Tank

Shark Shooter Terrafin Review with Shark Tank - Shark Shooter Terrafin Shark Shooter Terrafin is a new SuperCharger version of one of the old original Skylanders: Terrafin. If you thought you knew Terrafin before, think again. The new SuperCharger version Shark Shooter Terrafin has a brand new set of attacks, and because of this, he plays very differently. He’s still the same dirt shark trained in the art of boxing who is the champion fighter of the Dirt Seas. But this time, he’s left his boxing gloves at home and instead he has put on a shark rocket launcher! His earth swimming skills also remain intact from the days when he was a lifeguard so he still has the ability to quickly gain ground on his opponents by swimming underground. However, it’s shooting sharks that Terrafin does best now which makes Shark Shooter Terrafin much improved.
