Torch – Skylander Review

Torch – Skylander Review

Torch is a new Fire core Skylander making her debut in Trap Team . As a child, Torch worked with her grandfather as a dragon keeper. They tended to a stable of dragons which protected their village. One year they were attacked by an evil Snow Dragon. The dragon unleashed a blizzard that froze her entire village in an ice glacier! Torch was the only one to escape. She immediately went to rescue her village and her dragons armed with her Firespout Flamethrower. She fought long and hard and eventually defeated the Snow Dragon in an epic battle. Once the village was free she returned home looking for her grandfather. But he wasn’t there, he was missing. All that Torch found was her grandfather’s lucky flaming horseshoe. Now that Torch is a Skylander, she uses her powerful Firespout Flamethrower and her grandfather’s lucky horseshoe to battle evil and hopefully one day will find the grandfather she lost.

Skylanders Trap Team (Cutscene Theater)

April 1, 2015February 25, 2015 by Michael McNutt

Here it is. It took a little longer for me to get to than I thought it would, with all of the reviews we are trying to do. But here is the Skylanders Trap Team (Cutscene Theater) video. It’s basically all of the cutscenes around the main story pieced together to make one slightly long movie. Don’t be too put off by the length, there is about 20 minutes or more of credits at the end. Enjoy!

Tread Head – Skylander Review

Tread Head – Skylander Review

Tread Head is a new Tech core Skylander making his debut in Trap Team . Tread Head was an orphan from the Dizzying Dunes who always dreamed of racing. One summer he found enough old parts to build his own bike. He built his bike his way with a focus on performance. Once his bike was finished he entered it into a local race, but the other competitors all laughed at his bike’s design. Since he had built his bike for performance, and not looks, he easily raced to a commanding lead. While in the lead, he entered a canyon and found a roadblock of Goblin troops! In order to protect the other racers, Tread Head pulled off the road and kicked up a bunch of dust that forced the Goblins to retreat. This allowed the other racers to pass safely. Unfortunately for Tread Head, it also meant that he would loose the race. However, Master Eon took note and offered Tread Head the chance to become a Skylander and to race over evil.

Trap Team – Kaos Doom Challenge (Waves 41-50)

February 18, 2015 by Michael McNutt

Today Conner and I play the Kaos Doom Challenge (Waves 41-50). It’s starting to get a little more challenging now. This level was in the Itchy Lilies Marsh and featured 5 turrets to set up and protect. One of which was another Giants turret, so if Trap Team is your first game, you might not be able to use all five turrets. I try to level up Chopper a little bit while Conner goes to give Nitro Krypt King a boost. Check it out and see how waves 41-50 play.

Wildfire and Dark Wildfire – Skylander Review

Wildfire and Dark Wildfire – Skylander Review

Wildfire is a new Fire Trap Master making his debut in Trap Team . Wildfire also has one alternate version called Dark Wildfire which comes with the Dark Edition of Skylanders Trap Team. Wildfire was once a member of the Fire Claw Clan. He wanted to enter the Rite of Infernos, which was a test of survival on the dangerous Fire Plains. However, he was made of gold, and because of this he was not allowed to participate in the Rite of Infernos. On the nite of the test, Wildfire took his father’s enchanted shield and followed the path the other lions had gone. He found the lions trapped by a giant flame scorpion. Wildfire used his shield to block the scorpion’s stinging tail attacks and allowed the other lions to escape. Unfortunately Wildfire was hurt in the fight, but his father’s enchanted shield charged Wildfire, magnifying the strength that was in his heart. This made him the strongest lion of his clan. Now Wildfire is part of the Trap Team and uses his Traptanium bonded shield to defend all of those in need.

Love Potion Pop Fizz on Store Shelves

January 30, 2015 by Michael McNutt

Lias and I were at our local Target today. As tradition we always stroll through the Skylanders aisle. To our pleasant surprise, we saw a new Skylander that we didn’t have. It was Love Potion Pop Fizz. He is a series 3 special paint variant of Fizzy Frenzy Pop Fizz. Now, I knew he would be out for Valentine’s Day, but I did expect him almost last minute. That seems to be how the special paint Skylanders get released. I checked the online websites of several retailers but none of them show the character yet. Like I said before we found him at Target, but he could also be at Toys R Us and maybe Best Buy. If not, I would expect them to show up soon. Typically these special paint Skylanders stick around anywhere from a few days to a month or two. I think holiday one’s typically can be found for a month. I still see Winterfest Lob Star in the wild. So if you don’t find him in the next day or two, don’t give up hope.

Happy hunting!

Fist Bump – Skylander Review

March 7, 2016January 30, 2015 by Michael McNutt

Fist Bump – Skylander Review

Fist Bump is a new Earth core Skylander making his debut in Trap Team . He used to be the sleeping protector of the Bubbling Bamboo Forest. However, he awoke when a bunch of purple Greebles came to build a new base in the forest. The Greebles used huge rock-smashing machines that cleared out the forest and chewed up the land. This made Fist Bump furious, so he used his enormous stone fists and hammered the ground with all of his strength. This created a massive earthquake that sent shockwaves towards the Greebles. This destroyed the Greebles machines and the Greebles ran off in a panic. Terrafin noticed this act of bravery and brought Fist Bump to Master Eon who made him a Skylander.

I was in my local Target this morning and noticed that they had one each of the Dark and Light Element expansions for Skylanders Trap Team.

So if you have missed out on these two expansion packs, head on over to our Dark Expansion, or Light Expansion page and check out the Best Buy link and see if you can find one at your local Best Buy for store pick-up.
