Say what you will about Superchargers as a game but they handled reposes the best by completely revamping old skylanders from the ground up rather than just adding one move
YES. Bone Bash Roller Brawl is probably the best by design. She looks more... Edgy, which I think fits her character. Also, I love her vehicle. The Tomb Buggy is easy for shooting enemies out of the sky, and the second attack helps clear enemies and obstacles in front and beside you. But wait until it is Supercharged. The Tomb Buggy turns black, referencing Rollar Brawl's older design from Swap Force.
Aquaman Gill Grunt and "We live in society" Terrafin are definitely my personally favorites out of the Supercharger "reposes". The others are fine, except I hate "Tuba" Pop Fizz. But I prefer Stormblade over any of them. Out of all of them, I only owned Supercharger Terrafin and the reason why I called him "We live in society" Terrafin because one of the Shark Tank mods gave me strong Joker vibes and made me realize how "We live in society".
When I got into the games I also noticed that the Swap Force reposes were more distinctly different from their originals. I think you made some great points, both the positive and negative things you said. Terrific video production as always!
To be honest, I don’t mind reposes. I started in giants and it gave me to oppertunity to play the ssa skylanders without having to search for them. And later, I just ignored the reposes. They only took roster spots that I didn’t have to buy, because I already had them. If I had SSA before giants, and bought all the ones that got reposes. I didn’t need to buy any reposes, and only had to buy 14 figures (because tree Rex and jet vac were in the starter kit)
I honestly hate reposes so much. because even though they add nothing new to the game, even though they are the exact same character twice, even though they don't even appear in the in-game collection menu. They still sit there on the posters, taunting me.
Yeah true but at least the other three games well except for she didn't get any gorilla driller not rubber rouser because for some reason he's very slow if you don't have a hat and into increases speed at least up to 20 or 15%, the truck 10 games are annoying and the rounds and imaginators let's not talk about that superchargers but it's nowhere horrible the imaginators trust me ask me to put a list why I hate it and what they really really did wrong but this game was a rush. 😠😡🔥.
The undead repose for Trap Team was going to be Cynder but she was scrapped late in production. There is an image of the prototype figurein Toys For Bob's offices online.
I think that a good way for reposes to work would be if there was a poll online that anybody could respond to about what the best skylander from a certain game was. the most popular skylander gets a repose and a new paint job with a wow pow. then the next repose is done with a poll of the skylanders from the game the last repose was from. This way, we get more of the characters we love but they don't crowd the roster. Too bad we can't turn back time and tell activision that reposes were a mistake.
I was never and I'm still not a fan of reposed series skylanders. The only reposed series skylander I own is Volcanic Eruptor but that's because he is a special variant which makes him cooler and more unique than the other reposed series skylanders and he came with the 3DS version of Swap Force. But my brother loves the reposed series skylanders because he loves to pretend they're siblings of the series 1 skylanders. It's infinite times worse than him being a Sprocket fan.
i bet if they made less reposes and gave reposes slightly altered movesets that you have access to straight away,they wouldnt have contributed to the downfall of the series as much
I really enjoy the resposes as they bring back most of the better skylanders from past games and most of the resposes having really unique wow pows make them really fun to use
The thing with having a series 1 and series 2 of the same Skylander is that you can choose different upgrade paths to try both of them out without resetting
Prism break's and chop chop's reposes actually looked really cool, and since I don't really play the game anymore, I'm left with amazing figures Although, I can't disagree that some of the reposes were quite useless
Fun fact: in the undead element in trap team, we were supposed to get a Series 4 Cynder and there is actually an image of her figure in the toys for bob HQ
When I was younger I found out that some of the Skylanders with different coloured toys didn't change the colours in the game and some of them did which was very disappointing cuz when I got that gummy drill sergeant it wasn't transparent red in the game
I remember when I was little I didn’t even realize the series 2s had a new ability. It was only until swap-force came out and they actually marketed it
I can't speak of anything beyond Spyro's Adventure because I'm just now getting into the series but I'm excited about Giants because with the series 2 i can go down the other upgrade path that i didn't for my series 1. Perfect example would be Lightning Rod where I like both paths but can only have 1.
You should talk about Lightcores next. Believe me, I have Lightcore Prism Break, Lightcore Flashwing, TWO Lightcore Warnadoes, Lightcore Smolderdash, and I think that's it.
I actually enjoyed trying to get two of the characters, one from Spyro's Adventure and one from Giants. Mainly cuz it would allow me to have a character with both paths.
You know one thing you could do is if you have a repose or variances of a Skylander you already have is just do there other path in there upgrades. So at least they will play somewhat different. For example I have Series 1 Hex (with no broken arm ;p) and Lightcore Hex, with one I did the top upgrade path and the second I did the bottom one. :)
honestly i just like them because i like to look at them! i dont really seek them out because i want 16 gill grunts, i look for them because i like to see their cute little poses :3
The undead repose for trap team would have been a series 4 Cinder. There's actually a livestream I believe where a developer of some sorts has a series 4 cinder prototype in the background. She looks very much like series 2 cynder with metal armor.
I didn’t mind super chargers reposes because they gave the characters a completely new set of attacks. Giving stealth elf, terrifin, and roller brawl a gun was a little stupid though...
With skylanders, giants and swap force, it seemed like a reasonable possibility to get all of them (not each version but at least one of each slylander) but by trap team I just got one of each element and was done with it. Kind of unfourtunate since it was one of my favourite mechanically
I never had the original base game but I stopped at Trap team. Not due to the massive amount of figurines but Super Chargers never caught my attention as I thought the vehicles didn't do it for me and because of that. I never got Imaginators.
@@totalmoogaming2485 The only time Superchargers caught my attention was when they did a few characters and vehicles in blue for Autism awareness. Imaginators did seem intriguing for the chance to make your own Skylanders but I'm guessing the creation and the fighting styles weren't that great.
I'm guessing that re-poses (just adding a Wow-Pow) were how dealt with the short one year development time for Giants. I started with Swap Force, and then got Giants, and so was happy to get the improved Series 2 versions. But I can see the frustration if you already had a complete SSA roster when Giants came out.
I never got any reposes since I didn't see the point in having multiple versions of the same character. That and completing a roster without the original versions feels wrong. I also don't plan on getting the superchargers reposes.
I don't know if it happened to any others but Countdown had a new Soccer repose where the figure (and in the game) was a soccer ball and was not in his original form.
I like the idea of them because if someone didn’t play the first game and the skylanders are now of sale you can get the second best thing the series 2 or 3 versions
I wanted a remake of Spyro, the character that started it all, in Superchargers. They went with Pop Fizz instead which was pretty good, and Pop Fizz is one of my other favorite characters, but honestly they forgot to pay tribute to the main man himself- Spyro the dragon.
Why is your trap team poster different to mine? On mine you can see all of the trappable villains and it doesn't look as stupid with the missing reposes
The only version of Trap Team poster I remember is the one that came with the 3DS version of Trap Team as that version doesn't support traps and has its own exclusive trappable ingame villains.
Okay, i can understand the issue with the series two quite frankly. I guess the only reason i didnt exactly hit the nail in the coffin IMMEDIATELY on trap team was cause i started on giants so literally making series 2 actually my BASE versions to own, except for the select spyro's adventure who HAVENT been reposed. R.i.p Voodooed, Sunburn, Boomer (and whoever wasnt listed) You 3 were never renewed.
I REALLY wished series 3 could have their series 2 wowpow as well. It would make the series 2 not worth getting, but it would make series 3 actually worth getting with two powerful upgrades
I just wish more of the reposes were of actually rare characters if nothing else, needless to say I appreciated actually getting wham shell at all even if it took swap force to do so
Well there was nothing forcing you get a repose(outside of cyder and stealth elf in the starter packs; but meh). I think were made so other people that joined later to have acess to the characters. Everyone talks about how sunburn is so hard to get because he doesnt have a repose(is the only original character that is priced at about the same as the retail price.). Also some series 3 were weaker than series 2 like trigger happy and terafin. While yes buying reposes was a bad idea if you had the original; there is nothing wrong with them selling the same character twice(sounds bad but it is the same as restocking it)
Bruh sure a few of them aren't as good as the originals like Stealth Elf or Terrafin but those revamps are still decent skylanders on their own and a bunch of them such as Eruptor,Gill Grunt,Roller Brawl and Jet-Vac are actually improvements
So maybe it is different in the US but in Small little Denmark, Skylanders were sold out all the time, even as i entered giants i still only had maybe half the cast from spyro's adventure. So the Reposes acted as a way for me to get the skylanders i did not get, like slambam and terrafin. The wowpow and the switcheable path also made s1 useless to me and i started to just collect s2 instead of buying the older figures.
Reposes is what forced the end of my skylanders collection, I had all the rarest skylanders from all the games, and a lot of reposes and little originals m. Due to my reposes mum realised that I had too many and sent all of my characters to charity, at least they went to a good cause 🥺
i really wish in giants they wouldve just made a series 2 for all skylanders and had 1 from each get a lightcore rather than release only 3 out of 4 for each element and make 2 separate figutes for lightcore.
You're a little late to the party my friend. I was able to use my series 3 Stealth Elf from the Swap Force starter pack to completely breeze my way through Spyro's Adventure
Well and it depends what kind of skylanders person you are... Some people just collect the figures to play the game. Well then it's kinda understandable that you think reposes are useless. But i collect the skylanders for the collecting aspect. in my opinion it's really cool to have different figures. Like gillgrunt. In one pose he has a poor boring harpoon, second pose golden 4 tip harpoon, third pose freaking masive anchor, 4th pose water nessie, SC trident. That really does it for me hahaha

I honestly hate reposes so much. because even though they add nothing new to the game, even though they are the exact same character twice, even though they don't even appear in the in-game collection menu. They still sit there on the posters, taunting me.
People forget that there stats changed too, making them much stonger from there series 1, 2, or 3

As someone who’s first game was swap-force on the wii it was a godsend to be able to have a good way of getting older Skylanders.

I think the reason they had a lot of reposes was because if you can’t find the original you can always buy a repose and get the same one
I think that is one of many reasons for sure
and neat 1 of being able to have 2 skylanders with different moveset
I really enjoy the resposes as they bring back most of the better skylanders from past games and most of the resposes having really unique wow pows make them really fun to use
Thanks for making these quality productions!
The thing with having a series 1 and series 2 of the same Skylander is that you can choose different upgrade paths to try both of them out without resetting
I just realised he already said that
fun fact: the 8 skylanders from spyros adventure that didn’t appear in giants are the ones that sold the least of each element
well that does make a lot of sense
@@kryptkrusher strange because boomer and camo are popular fellas
God man never change, your content feels like comfort food, it’s just so nice.
Prism break's and chop chop's reposes actually looked really cool, and since I don't really play the game anymore, I'm left with amazing figures

Fun fact: in the undead element in trap team, we were supposed to get a Series 4 Cynder and there is actually an image of her figure in the toys for bob HQ
I see reposes as extra lives for the characters, that’s why I have 3 trigger happy figures lmao
The only good thing about reposes imo is that they introduce the old characters to people who didnt or werent able to play skylanders at the time
When I was younger I found out that some of the Skylanders with different coloured toys didn't change the colours in the game and some of them did which was very disappointing cuz when I got that gummy drill sergeant it wasn't transparent red in the game
I believe that the main point behind reposes are new chances to get old characters, and they add to your army for nightmare mode in any game.
I remember when I was little I didn’t even realize the series 2s had a new ability. It was only until swap-force came out and they actually marketed it
They had the perfect opportunity: They could have made a Spyro repose that was the classic or legends design.
0:00-0:09 when someone tells you that the earth is flat
At the very least, it was a good way to get old characters instead of having to get what, at times, might have been rarer versions of them.
I can't speak of anything beyond Spyro's Adventure because I'm just now getting into the series but I'm excited about Giants because with the series 2 i can go down the other upgrade path that i didn't for my series 1.

krypt krusher you are like scott the woz but for skylanders
The other difference is that the series 2 ad 3 ( i think 4 ) all had different stats too, not just the poses.
At least Series 2 Zap had a good (yet upsetting) reason to exist... (look at it's WowPow name)
In skylanders superchargers you can change your series 1,giant,swap-force,or trap master or supercharger charger path without resetting the figure.
You know one thing you could do is if you have a repose or variances of a Skylander you already have is just do there other path in there upgrades. So at least they will play somewhat different. For example I have Series 1 Hex (with no broken arm ;p) and Lightcore Hex, with one I did the top upgrade path and the second I did the bottom one. :)
At least they are better then lightcores and chase-variants

The reposes are the only Skylanders related things I regret buying in the almost 12 years I played Skylanders
Oh shit here comes Eon's elite series 2 mega smash bash triple dash supercharged vehicle sold separately Krypt Krusher
I had a Repose and it broke apart right as I put it on the Portal of Power that is why you don't buy a Repose of Gill grunt on amazon
How could you say something so bold yet so true
I love reposes the wow POWs are always really cool and can make an good character to an amazing one
Wtf already a new one? Damn you really werent joking
Now when I watched your Skylanders games ranked, I wouldn't of guessed that your whole channel is based off it lol

Yeah, Stealth Elf is supposed to be a "Silent but deadly" ninja. Giving her gun goes against the original intention of her character.
There was also going to be a series 4 cynder in trap team, meaning that there would have been 3 series 4 skylanders if they were not scrapped

Boomer, and Voodood got Eons elites. Sunburn is the only Spyro’s adventure Skylander that never got a repose throughout the series.
