Skylanders fans have enjoyed collecting and playing with new figures and characters for years but with the release of Skylanders Imaginators, fans will be able to create their very own Skylander and even better, have their own custom figure.
That’s right, through the brand new Skylanders Creators mobile app players can create on-the-go with all of the same features, options and creation parts that are available in the console game with bonus fun only for the app.
Players can transfer their characters using Chirp technology by placing their mobile device close to the television while a sound emits from the mobile device to sync with the Skylanders Imaginators game.
And when players use the Skylanders Creators app, fans can purchase a T-Shirt, 2-D card or a fully playable 3-D printed Imaginator toy based on the Skylander you create in-game and on the app.
The card will run for $14.99, while the T-shirt goes for $24.99. The custom 3D figure will run you about $49.99, but if you want the figure you’ll have to get it quick because it will only be made for a limited time.
Players can also win a 3D character starting Oct. 24. All they have to do is create an Imaginator in Skylanders Imaginators or using the Skylanders Creator app and share on social media channels using the dedicated #CreatorContest to win a free 3D figure.
Skylanders Imaginators will also see the return of Crash Bandicoot as the classic character will join Skylanders in the same way Spyro the Dragon did years ago.
Skylanders Imaginators will release Oct. 16.
