Knight Mare – Skylander Review

March 7, 2016April 3, 2015 by Michael McNutt

Knight Mare – Skylander Review

Knight Mare is the first Dark Element Skylander making her debut in Trap Team . She also happens to be a Trap Master. Before she was a Trap Master though, she was one of the few Dark Centaurs who guarded the Oracle of Stones. The Oracle of Stones was an enchanted game of Dark Skystones that could predict the future. It was very dangerous because if the Oracle was asked the wrong question seven times it would unleash a terrible curse on all of Skylands. One day it was stolen by an unknown force, and Knight Mare was given the task to get it back. Luckily she found it in a cave where a bunch of Biclopes were about to ask it the seventh wrong question. Knight mare charged forward and defeated the Biclopes before they could unleash the terrible curse on Skylands. Now she is a Trap Master where she helps guard all of Skylands.

Trail Blazer – Skylander Review

Trail Blazer – Skylander Review

Trail Blazer is a new core Fire Skylander making his debut in Trap Team . Trail Blazer is a unicorn who has a bit of a temper whenever he sees anything unfair. One day he came across another unicorn trapped in a net. This wasn’t just any unicorn trapped in the net, it was the mythical Unocorn. The Unocorn was a magical unicorn with a Churro Horn that sprinkled enchanted cinnamon throughout Skylands. Trail Blazer immediately set the Unocorn free from his trap. Just then the Dark Wizards, who had set the trap appeared. They were very angry at Trail Blazer for ruining their trap. Trail Blazer however, was just as angry. He was furious at the unfair trapping of the Unocorn. Somehow, some of the spicy cinnamon from the Churro Horn had rubbed off on Trail Blazer and mixed with his elemental fire. Trail Blazer was literally set ablaze with fury! He ran fiery circles around the wizards forcing them to run away. Trail Blazer realized that he could use his fiery powers to fight evil so he sought out the Skylanders who welcomed him as a new member.

Trap Team Mega Epic Unboxing (Wave 4)

March 25, 2015 by Michael McNutt

About a week ago I was in my local Toys R Us and they had all of Wave 4 Trap Team figures on display. The only thing I didn’t see were the single light and dark traps that were supposed to be out. I went ahead and got everything I could find, including a couple of what I thought were wave 3 traps. So here it is, our Trap Team Mega Epic Unboxing (Wave 4) video. Enjoy! Only one more small wave to go!

Wave 4 Trap Team Skylanders Now Releasing

March 20, 2015 by Michael McNutt

It looks as though, Wave 4 Skylanders are starting to hit store shelves. I know this seems a little strange since many Wave 3 characters never really showed up at some stores. It seems like the blame for a majority of that and the delay of Wave 3 and 4 Skylanders has to do with the port strikes on the west coast. The strikes have since been resolved, but reports claim that it could be up to six months until all of the ships that have been parked off the coast can effectively offload all of their goods. Despite that, new characters are starting to hit store shelves. I wonder if companies have started either shipping through other ports, or using air-mail or what. I was at my local Toys R Us today and they had 90% of all of the new characters for Wave 4. They even had Bat Spin and High Five, which I thought were supposed to be in Wave 3, but never showed up. I also saw a few of the traps that were supposed to be in Wave 3 like the Totem design and snake design. I also stopped by Walmart and Gamestop but they did not have any of the new characters. Walmart did have the Tidal Wave Gill Grunt & Gill Runt two pack as well as the Full Blast Jet-Vac & Pet-Vac two pack. Both of those two packs are exclusive to Walmart. Expect these Wave 4 characters to start showing up at your favorite retailer soon!

Krypt King and Nitro Krypt King – Skylander Review

March 7, 2016March 20, 2015 by Michael McNutt

Krypt King and Nitro Krypt King – Skylander Review

Krypt King is a new Undead Trap Master making his debut in Trap Team . Krypt King also has an alternate variant called Nitro Krypt King which is exclusive to Target. Krypt King used to wander Skylands as a spirit of a knight. One day he found an ancient Arkeyan weapon vault. Within the vault he found an extremely powerful suit of armor. When he put on the armor, it triggered the vault’s defense system. Alarms blared and a massive sealed chamber opened revealing a huge army of war machines. Krypt King leapt into action. Using a giant sword that he had also found in the vault, he swung and chopped until the army was completely destroyed. Krypt King realized that he was in control of a great power and wanted to put it to better use. So he sought out the Skylanders and was made a member of the Trap Team. Now he uses his Traptanium Broadsword to cut down evil.

Lob-Star and Winterfest Lob-Star – Skylander Review

Lob-Star is a new Water Trap Master making his debut in Trap Team . Lob-Star also has a special Christmas variant called Winterfest Lob-Star. Lob-Star comes from an undersea kingdom called Star City. He was the owner and head chef of a five-star restaurant. His food was so good, he even cooked for the King Fish. In his spare time, however, he secretly trained in a mysterious art of fighting that few of his kind had ever seen. He kept this secret for a long time, but one day a giant Leviathan threatened to swallow up all of Lob-Star’s guests including the King Fish. Lob-Star had no choice but to reveal his secret abilities and he used his mysterious training to defeat the Leviathan and drive him out of Star City. Master Eon took note and recruited Lob-Star to join the Skylanders. Now with his powerful Traptanium Throwing Stars, Lob-Star protects the Skylands as a Trap Master.

Ka-Boom – Skylander Review

Ka-Boom – Skylander Review

Ka-Boom is a new Fire Trap Master making his debut in Trap Team . Ka-Boom comes from an ancient volcanic island called Munitions Forge. He and his people were very tech savvy and used to build machinery that was used throughout the Skylands. One day, the ruthless Captain Ironbeard tried to capture Munitions Forge so he could build an unstoppable fleet of pirate warships. With Captain Ironbeard’s invasion approaching, Ka-Boom created the greatest anti-pirate weapon ever created – The Boom Cannon! (I would also guess this would be Flynn’s favorite weapon as well!) When Ironbeard and his men arrived, Ka-Boom was already at the edge of the docks with his Boom Cannon ready. It was smoldering hot having just came out of the fire. One by one, Ka-Boom sank all of the invading ships until Captain Ironbeard was forced to retreat. Now Ka-Boom is a valued member of the Trap Team and uses the Boom Cannon to blast evil!
