* Visual Effect Added*

*Traptanium Portal TM Does Not Project*

Disclaimer: Action figures do not come to life. Gameplay isn't as fun as CG animated trailer.

That trailer was about 3 times longer than it needed to be.

Uncle Peter is going to be really angry when he finds out these kids opened his mint in box Skylanders figures and were playing with them.

Activision has made their mistake with this franchise by requiring new bases. People are going to start get real weary when they have to shell out with a portal every year if that becomes the trend.

This is why you adults need adBlock. You can't let your kids see this stuff. You literally can't afford it.

EXPOSITION!

Also, has Spyro basically been swept under the rug now? No sign of him or Drobot anywhere.

Now I am officially disappointed.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was the coolest part of the trailer. They could totally do it but it would add to the cost of the unit.

Calling their new Skylanders game a Trap. There's irony somewhere in there, I know it.

@jaycee: Wouldn't surprise me. I read a Polygon article on Skylanders that stated they came up with the Skylanders idea first and just tacked it onto the Spyro brand for extra name recognition. But now Skylanders is more wide-known than Spyro is.

I approached this trailer saying " no, fuck you, I won't buy another round of these stupid things!" But now... Having watched that new trailer... What the hell is wrong with me?

So if each trap crystal only traps a specific character, then it is like buying a Skylander figure that you can't play with till you find then in the game. On the flip side it gives them an opportunity to advertise to you after you defeat each boss, plus those crystals are probably cheaper to manufacture than the figures.

I tried to watch this, but it was too insufferable past the first minute, I guess I'll wait for Jeff's shenanigans.

I think it's super meta that I'm here, staring at my screen with approximately no clue as to what the fuck's going on in this video of these kids staring at a wall, with approximately no clue as to what the fuck's going on.

Skylanders Swap Force was fantastic! The real question is... Traps, Marvel Infinity, or sell a kidney and get both?

Could not watch the whole thing. A little too cringe inducing.
