Today each of us take some time to create a new Skylanders Imaginator. Since the creation process can take a while, I decided it would be better if we made a separate video. So watch as Conner creates a Life Sorcerer, Lias creates an Earth Smasher, and I create a Dark Ninja. Enjoy our Imaginators Creation Corner 1 and be sure to watch our SkylanderNutts Plays Imaginators series to see us use these new Imaginators.

Today the boys take on Chapter 3: Scholarville in our next SkylanderNutts Plays Imaginators series. Lias powers through a rather difficult Creation Clash battle with a little help. We also realize that we will need to spend some time creating more Imaginators since we only had two and they lost them before they reached the Doomlander battle. Give it a watch!

Today we show you how to reset your Skylanders Imaginators Creation Crystals. We demonstrate using Lias’s Fire Crystal because after creating his Fire Quickshot in our second episode of SkylanderNutts Plays Imaginators, he now wants a Fire Knight. Give it a watch!
Today the boys take on Chapter 2: Mushroom River in Skylanders Imaginators. First though they spend some time exploring the Academy and rescuing Flynn. They also take some time in the middle of the chapter to try out the creation crystals which leads to both boys creating their first character. That ends up making the video a little longer than normal but it does show the creation process. Check it out!

Welcome to SkylanderNutts Plays Skylanders Imaginators. Today we start our journey with the new game by playing through the first chapter, the Cradle of Creation. After we finish the level, we stick around for a little bit to explore the new Mysterious Ancient Place or M.A.P. or short. Here we find a Sensei Realm for an element we don’t have and a new (old) Skystones game called Creation Clash. We’ll explore more of the M.A.P. and the Skylanders Academy in future plays.

Skylanders Imaginators is out and we grabbed a couple of the Starter Packs plus a bunch of creation crystals today. We expect to get all of the characters from Amazon tomorrow, so we will do a character unboxing video when those arrive. Today we are unboxing the Imaginators Dark Edition and Crash Edition. We also open a bunch of the creation crystals giving us at least one of each element. Check it out!
We are only a few days away from the Skylanders Imaginators release. Are you ready? Do you know what Skylanders you want and where to go to get them? We have our plan but I want to sum up all of the Imaginators information we have for the upcoming launch. Here’s what you will need to consider when searching for Imaginators this Sunday!
The basic starter pack will be retailing at $74.99 and will include the game, a portal, King Pen, Golden Queen, and a Fire Creation Crystal. If you are a Best Buy Gamer’s Club Member or an Amazon Prime member, you can save 20% making the price $59.99. This basic starter pack should be at all retailers this Sunday for the Xbox One, PS4, Xbox 360, PS3, and Wii U. Please note that there is NOT a Wii or 3DS version of the game this year.

If you’ve been following Skylander Imaginators, then you already know that the game will present you with near limitless possibilities for you to create your own Skylander Imaginator. You store your new Imaginators in “Creation Crystals”. This allows you to play with your creation in the game and to take it to your friends house. But what if you could actually have your created Skylander made into a figure? Soon that’s exactly what you’ll be able to do.
Coming on launch day will be the Skylanders Creator app for your Android or Apple device. The app will transfer your character data through sound waves from your console to the app. That’s right I said sound waves. You could even share your design with your friends by making an audio recording of your character’s special transfer sound. But that’s not really the cool part. The app allows you to order your very own 3D printed Skylander Imaginator for $49.99. The figure is a sandstone printed figure and will actually work when you put it on the portal. The figure comes in a protective dome for protection. Still, it’s a working Skylander figure of YOUR creation that will come to life when placed on the portal.
While $49.99 seems reasonable to have your very own custom Skylander figure, it might not be in everyone’s budget. A cheaper option is to make a Skylander Card instead. This colored trading card cost only $14.99 and will actually work on the portal to pull your character into the game. If you have a lot of characters you love, this may be the better option. Finally if you really want to show off your creation, you can have it put on a t-shirt for just $24.99. Unfortunately, the t-shirt will not transfer your character into the game via the portal. If you want all three options, then it will cost your $90.
We think it’s really cool that Toys For Bob and Activision are giving us this option. It’s definitely something that we will probably try here at SkylanderNutts for our favorite characters that we create. I guess that puts more pressure on us to create a really cool character that we want to show off.
Look for the Skylanders Creator app on your favorite mobile device on October 16th.

Amazon might be the place to go for all of your Imaginators Launch character needs this year. Typically, Skylanders characters are released in waves. In the past there have been about 5 waves of characters that you can count on through out the year. But lately those "waves" have been falling apart. There are often special characters released in between waves, unexpected waves like for the powder blue Skylanders from last year, and of course Thrillipede and Buzz Wing were the only two characters in Wave 5 last year and most in the US have never seen Thrillipede in stores. This year we are starting to blur the lines even more. Wave 1 characters come out on launch day at all retailers while Wave 2 typically comes out a week or two later but always at Toys R Us before the rest of the retailers. This year Amazon is getting in on the mixing of waves by offering Imaginators character Packs which contain seemingly all of the characters coming in Wave 1 and Wave 2 and more. They are all available for pre-order and if you are an Amazon Prime member you will also get launch day delivery and 20% off their already discounted bundle price. Amazon makes no mention of this, but I would assume that quantities must be limited since they are selling Wave 2 characters in the bundles early and for launch. There is also no way to know how long these bundles will be available, it's possible that they may only be available for pre-order. Amazon is not yet offering single character pre-orders, so if you want the most characters you can get early, then pre-order from Amazon now!
