So, is there a collector market for Skylanders?

Those little bastards fly out of the stores around here. People are begging and planning things for them.

It won't last though... The Skylanders video game doesn't have too much depth to it, so once all the kids that got the Skylanders starter kit for Christmas get bored with it, nobody will care about Skylanders anymore IMO.

I had to look this up. I don't even know what they are, I honestly thought it was a vintage line you from the title and I was going to see if it was something I had as a kid. I can't imagine anyone would want these. I'm old.

My son loves this game(i admit,i think its fun too).Stores can't keep them around me.By the time they release all the waves,they could release more exp. sets.As far as collecters market i could see it,but arn't these permanet to the Wii they are loaded into?

Nope. The figures work cross-platform. So if Johnny levels up Eruptor on his Wii and goes to Billy's house (who has a xbox 360) and drops Eruptor on the portal over there... not only will the figure play on the 360, but all achievements will be available too!

I see CRAZY ads for it on Craigslist where people are begging to buy ANYTHING from the line. I don't even know what it is and could care less.

Thats cool,i didn't know that.My son seen the new 3pack(he passed).The exp. packs were fun but short.There is so much they could do with this game.

We have 11 Skylanders so far and always looking for new ones. We really enjoy the game, its fun enough and not too complicated so even my 5 year old can play.

My son has 14 + the Graveyard and Pirate ship sets. The 3pack we seen had Flameslinger,Stump Smash and someone else in it.I just hate he doesn't have a 3DS for the dark spyro.

I agree.It is a easy and fun game to pick up.

We picked up Flameslinger last week. Its become my favorite. Has this move where you run real fast and leave a fire trail. If you make a ring of fire, you get bonus damage. He's cool. And I like Stealth Elf a lot.

Trigger Happy is really fun to use(once you build up his guns).My faves are the ghost skylanders.Chop Chop and Hex are the ones i use.

For the first time since Christmas my closest Gamestop finally restocked some this week (been checking every other day while also checking Walgreens next door for Joes, lol). In one day they sold everything except the Boomers, Voodoos and Stump Smashes.

I was looking at all the figs on Youtube and I think Flameslinger is the coolest since he's the archer, but since he shares the same element as the freebie Spyro... I wouldn't buy him. LOL. I'm planning out a strategy of only one fig per element. LOL.
