Skylanders Imaginators (Xbox One)

Product Information

Use the power of your imagination to create Imaginator Skylanders to battle the ultimate adventure alongside the almightly Senseis to save Skylands. The only exception here are the Traptanium Traps, which do not have bases of any sort. They are much smaller than a typical character figure, and all feature a hexagonal shaped "peg" or "protrusion" on one end, and are placed inside the designated slot of the Traptanium Portal during play rather than on the portal's main surface.

Search closely on the underside of a figure that you believe is a SuperChargers vehicle, and you will find telltale signs. The Activision logo will be present, and the vehicle's in-game element symbol is also etched into the plastic of the figures.

SuperChargers was the first to break this rule, with its figures only being compatible with SuperChargers (and the later game Imaginators) despite having figures of some of the same characters from earlier games. This is because even though the characters themselves were familiar faces from previous games, their SuperChargers figures actually had redesigned skill trees, and in some cases completely different play styles than their earlier games' versions. Keep in mind that if a character had their "Series 1" or debut figure in a given Skylanders game, then you can use newer versions of that character's figure in their "Series 1" game, and any game after it.After the shut down, any subsequent Skylanders games with newer wireless portals no longer has a USB port on them. Only exception being Trap Team 3DS which sometimes came with the older portal instead. Scammell, David (June 1, 2016). "Skylanders Imaginators lets you create your very own Skylanders".

Look at the very bottom of your figure. If there is a thin, red, semi-transparent plastic base layer on the underside, then it is a figure from the Trap Team game.The shape of the platform may be easiest to discern by looking at the figure from underneath. They are larger platforms than the average Skylanders figure has from earlier entries in the franchise.

It is important to note that this rule of thumb only applies to the first 4 games in the franchise: Spyro's Adventure, Giants, Swap Force, and Trap Team.I’ve been PCMag’s home entertainment expert for over 10 years, covering both TVs and everything you might want to connect to them.

Create your own Skylander For the first time, kids can bring their imaginations to life and create their own Skylanders, called Skylanders Imaginators. With endless creation options of powers, abilities, catchphrases, appearance and much more, kids can build their very own creations out of their imaginations, or use the randomise feature to allow the game to choose parts for them. An important type of Imaginators figure that does not have these platforms is the Creation Crystal, a new figure type introduced with Imaginators, that allows you to create your own Imaginator characters in the game. Look at the bottom of your figure. If there is a thin, clear, transparent plastic base layer on the underside, and if the part that your figure is standing on is gold colored rather than the usual colors for the variety of elements, then it is a figure from the special line known as "Eon's Elites" and it does not belong to any one particular Skylanders game.

Determine which Skylanders game(s) and Portal(s) of Power you have. With the exception of Skylanders Imaginators, each game has its own unique Portal of Power accessory. The figures often have a metallic look, or a sparkling glitter-like aesthetic added to some portion of them. Some also feature unique appearances, such as Eon's Elite Slam Bam, whose figure is wearing ski goggles and carries a sled in one of his four arms. SuperChargers portals are compatible with Spyro's Adventure, Giants, Swap Force, SuperChargers, and Imaginators. New Storyline and Gameplay Skylanders Imaginators features an all-new adventure-filled, comedic and charming story with fun new characters, as well as returning franchise favourites. The game delivers a diverse and dynamic story-driven gameplay experience, focused on the magic of sparking imagination, inspiration and excitement of kids as they create their own superheroes - all set within a variety of compelling new environments. Additionally, Skylanders Imaginators will support local co-op multiplayer - Players can place two Creation Crystals or two toys or a combination of the Crystals and toys on the Portal of Power to maximise the fun!

Compare a picture to your portal if possible for visual confirmation. Otherwise, the following additional details may help you identify your portal. The ring near the bottom of the Giants portal is clear/gray rather than the green color of the Spyro's Adventure portal. Figures that were released for the Swap Force game will work in Swap Force and later games, but not necessarily in Spyro's Adventure or Giants, which both came before Swap Force. Balancing: Some of the enemies have way too much health and hit way too hard, a way of getting more money out of you, because you basically need to buy additional figures
