I wish I brought more money with me when I found every light and dark skylander from trap-team for only € 2.00 each, but, all I had on me was € 2.00, so, I just ended up buying blackout I went back the next day and they were gone F I didn't make the same mistake when ro-bow and wildstorm first came out, but, when I bought them, I never knew they would later be rare
first impressions are not important all skylanders are viable, if you feel like you regret a skylander purchase try doing a couple of levels or areanas with the skylander and read about its lore and if the uprgrade path improves your opinion on said skylander because you might find a new favourite or a skylander you dont like, either way at least you gave it a chance.
If I knew how much the characters I was missing would cost in the future 5 years ago when I started getting away from the game, I would have never stopped collecting as a kid
I can imagine what it must feel like :) Don`t beat yourself up too bad, you had no idea of knowing. And maybe you bought something else you wanted for the money you saved!
@8:20 If you have a Series 2 and want to try both paths in SSA, you can change its path in Giants at Persephone's (or in Swap Force at a Power Pod), and then bring it back to SSA, without having to reset it.
I wish i knew How much the games would mean to me. They were some of my first video games i’ve ever played and ended up selling ALL of my Skylanders in 2017. Big mistake. Lost a fair bit of my childhood, and it hurt a bit. So now i am playing the games and collecting most of the Skylanders again. Yay
And thank you for checking out the video! This was the perfect video to give you a shout-out, your site was a tremendous help when I got into this franchise.
This reminds me of the time that I bought Starcast. I loved his design and heard many great things about him from other people. I bought him for 44 euros and realised that hes super underpowered. I still like him and I can acces the dark sensei realm which is nice. I just wish I would've done more research.
Sorry for the very late reply. Notifications on UA-cam sometimes work strangely. I actually like him too! I guess he might not be the most powerful Dark Sensei but I do think he's the coolest looking one.
Hey not sure if you are going to see this but once you reach level 74 in superchargers there’s an ability that allows you to switch upgrade paths on any skylander without resetting it
I saw your comment and of course I will respond. My channel is growing but I haven’t turned into a diva yet :D I’ve actually heard that before and it’s a great tip. I think you have a point in that I should have included it in the video. Thank you for your comment!
One big thing about the reposes. Returning characters in Superchargers are NOT reposes, as they have entirely different movesets, and thus will not work on previous games. For example, while Series 2 Stealth Elf and Series 3 Ninja Stealth Elf will work on SSA and Giants, Super Shot Stealth Elf from Superchargers will not, as she is not a repose, but a redesign with a different moveset.
I look forward to seeing your videos, they feel so much more refreshing than so may other youtubers, they are so informative and interesting and I think would even help players who started back in 2011.
Sorry for the very late reply. Notifications on UA-cam sometimes work strangely. I really wanted to say thank you for the lovely comment. I do try to do my unique take on content creating and if I can help people who also got into the games late, it would mean a lot to me. Thanks a lot!
Well I started now with Skylanders Superchargers for my PS4. As a hardcore Dinsey Infinity fan I really love Skylanders Superchargers! The figures are absolutely cool and I have to admit that I just would by a figure because how awesome the figure looks like. I have no intention to play to 100%, but I really like to explore every element of the game. Yeah I got maybe a bit overboard when I was on eBay buying figures BUT I am looking forward to play with all the figures.
One thing I wish I knew before was to find a place to store all of them once o had a sizable amount, luckily the cases for them arnt too expensive and also plastic tubs are great for storage as well.
Man, I wish I didn't stop when Imaginators came out. I would probably have gotten Ro-Bow and Wild Storm with it and wouldn't have to spend so much money on them now. Wild Storm is the one I consider getting, Ro-Bow is probably the only Skylander I'll get an NFC card for because I, as a 14 year old, won't spend my money that I saved up for a year just for 1 character that isn't even that fun (from what I've seen). Anyways, great video. I subscribed and I'm looking forward to more content :D
I`m sure you are not alone in regretting not getting those two when they were released :) No need to beat yourself up too much about it, you had no way of seeing into the future. I`m very happy you liked the video! I hope my future content will live up to your expectations.
I wish I knew that my brothers would end up selling all our Skylanders to buy a laptop. It would’ve made me cherish the moments I could spend playing the game and playing with my (and their) figures a bit more.
I can understand it's annoying now in hindsight but then again, nothing you can do about it now. Some figures and games are relatively cheap so maybe start a new collection? :)
@@ComingCleanGaming I already have actually. I own a bunch of Swap Force skylanders (and the game of course) because my family’s old collection was just SSA and Giants
I got into Skylanders when Giants came out, however, Giants wasn’t my first Skylanders game. Spyro’s Adventure was. I focused on getting series 2 characters whenever possible, because series 1 Skylanders who were first introduced in Spyro’s Adventure can only unlock heroic challenges in Spyro’s Adventure, while series 2, 3, series 4 tidal wave Gill Grunt, and light cores can unlock that specific Skylanders heroic challenge in Spyro’s Adventure AND Giants. I did get almost every version of Spyro, because I grew up playing the original Spyro trilogy on the PS1 and he’s my all time favorite video game character. I have so much childhood nostalgia for that purple boy. The only one I don’t have is Chrome Silver Spyro because I never liked chase variants. I also have series 1 Cynder, series 2 Cynder, and Series 3 Phantom Cynder because she was introduced in the Legend of Spyro trilogy which I also enjoy. Any other Skylander, I’ll just get one version of their non variant form and any in game variants of them.
I did play the first Spyro game growing up but Spyro is one of my favorite Skylanders simply because of the way he plays :) Collecting Skylanders is surely addictive, thanks for your comment!
If you have skylanders superchargers you are able to switch your skylanders path regardless if your character is a series 1,giant,swap-force, trapmaster, or a super chargers you just have to reach portal master rank 74.
I`ve actually heard about that trick! One more reason for me to skip a couple of games and dive straight into SuperChargers, really looking forward to that game :)
Right now I’m missing 29 Skylanders 7 Senseis and the other 22 are in game variants and I regret not getting my hands on them especially Ro-Bow and Wild Storm, but I only need two more reposes so that’s a good thing
im collecting skylanders stuff as well. i now have all the games. but im still missing a bunch of figures. withe teh figures i'm collecting all core skylanders, traps, creation crystals and special variants that show up in the game. im on 307 out of 476 skylanders that i need to collect. wish me luck
Bit of a late comment, but I wish I knew sooner about the NFC card copies of Skylanders. Yes, they aren't the real skylander, but for certain characters like Wildstorm and Robow, I'd much rather spend $25 to get them and their level chests then hundreds for just the characters. Those are the only two I'd recommend getting, though, as all of the other figures are more or less obtainable. Oh, and not sure if it'd be the same for other people, but my cards don't work on my Switch copy of imaginators, just WiiU, so I guess there's a word of warning that they might not work. Then again, the switch copy is just as expensive as Wildstorm, so I guess not many people would have to worry about that.
It's a bit unfortunate that so many things have become so expensive over the years. It's a bit sad that there is such an economical hurdle for people to overcome as it may result in fewer people getting into the game even if they want to. NFC cards for some characters might be a good alternative, thank you for your comment!
Yup, you could be making big bucks now :) It was however impossible to know and maybe you bought something cool for yourself for all the money you saved on Skylanders!
@@retexcrafted I have just updated my about page so you`ll find my e-mail there. I`m always up for collaborations, feel free to contact me with any ideas you may have!
I got an example of the gameplay I thought whirlwind would be powerful but she is weak in ssa and giants but trap team her cloud path does way more dps
Sorry for the very late reply, I just found out that you don't get notifications of all your comments. That was very fortunate for you, congratulations! Buying characters for cheap from parents who doesn't know their actual worth is sort of a Skylanders jackpot :)
I collected about 90 while I was a kid. And I only had the 3ds versions. Now I'm trying to sell a butt ton of them, and nobody wants them. Maybe I should wait until nostalgia kicks in, and people will buy them for WAY more than I am selling them for now.
What I wish I knew was to not be a moron and blow so much money on different variants instead of new characters. Or at least get the best versions of characters like thorn horn camo or whichever has the better WOW POW.
Definitely no. I think most senseis will have about the same price for a long time to come since everything sells second-hand. You do have to take into account that collecting ALL characters and even the expansion levels will be very expensive. If you can settle for a non-100% completion you`ll be fine though. I think collecting senseis of all elements and battle classes is a great goal.
@DemPenguins Thank you for standing up for my nose. I agree that it is in this context inappropriate to comment someone's facial features since the video had a totally different topic. Fire Embliam is actually a big supporter of mine and I`m sure he didn`t mean to insult me. My nose actually is a bit tilted. I am however not sure if this is just how it ended up or if my nose bridge got displaced somehow after a kickboxing class.
If you`re also a Skylanders collector, is there something you wish you knew before you started your collection?
