A boy and dad passion for action figures.

Skylanders!

Look at what we finally got, the Skylanders Spyro's Adventure video game for the PS3. Isaac tried this game at a friend and wanted it really, really, really bad. So I bought it for him as a gift for being the greatest son ever!


Its a cool game where Isaac can change characters (little plastic statues) on the portal and they instantly appear on the screen. You need some specific characters to unlock certain mysteries in the game. There are a total of 32 characters so far, three comes with the game.

I read that so far this is the best selling figures collection of the year. Activision has sold more Skylanders then Hasbro has sold Star Wars action figures, which was the winner of every past years.

    1. Yes they are. Its a cool collectable concept, well though of.
      I told Isaac that he will get one character of each team... there are 8 teams.

  2. Jboy said it. I looked at them in Laredo for about a minute. I have too much stuff to collect though to add another one.

      We are big gamers so it was only a matter of time before we got this.
