48:21 You have to remember that when the commercials were made S4 Cynder, S4 Trigger Happy, and S4 Terrafin were still being worked on. So it's not false advertising, it's an Overwatch 2 situation where one of the main selling points was scrapped to to being rushed
Kaos’s element is also implied to be Magic in Rift into Overdrive, since Glumshanks was planning to use a Magic Trap to free Kaos from the vault, and his Skystones in Superchargers are also marked as Magic. I like to think he’s both.
Well, as to who made the Arkeyans, I have an interesting theory. The Iron Fist of Arkus physically turns the user into a giant robot, so perhaps they simply designed a technology to turn their entire species into machines. Chop Chop and Krypt King could be examples of early experiments of this process, since they are half machine, half skeleton.
Krypt King is actually a possessed suit, but still a good point. Also, there's the fact that they have a bakery, which if I'm remembering correctly, was eventually closed because robots don't eat.
I just recently noticed something in Imaginators that could make a good entry on the iceberg: Sharpfin breaks the fourth wall In one of those post-game side quests that you can do in Imaginators, there’s one where Sharpfin needs help rescuing his plumbing crew. At the start of the level, he says “you might remember me as the guy who helped you in an earlier game” and then quickly brushes it off. Just a neat little Easter egg of Sharpfin being aware that he’s in a video game.
The ancients being the developers is likely a reference to one of the credit rolls of the games, the one where Kaos is talking to you. He wonders who the names on the credits are and eventually wonder if those are the names of the ancients, although he dismises it quickly, saying they could never have such a silly names or something like that.
42:57: In the Trap Team credits, Kaos theorizes that the devs are the Ancients One topic never mentioned is that Ka-boom's bio mentions Munitions Forge from Legend of Spyro
39:05 This honestly was part of my issue with Imaginators. The game felt very limited with the character creation and even the Skylanders themselves to a degree. The games started having less true animalistic/beast characters and more anthropomorphic/humanoid characters. It's not a bad thing but it really limited the varying potential of the Skylanders and the Imaginators as they all were very anthropomorphic in design with very little diversity in design like dragons, centaurs, animals, etc. Like just being able to fully customize a character no matter the class would've been cool. Not only that, but allow more options for the body types and structure like giving them 4 or 6 arms, or maybe a 6 legged centaur like body, or maybe make them into a dragon like shake. The current customizations just felt very lifeless and I just feel like I wasn't doing something right when making imaginators. The Sensei's too would also be heavily improved on having more diverse characters in terms of design. For example, wouldn't it just be awesome to have a real Hydra of a Skylander? They would have 2 heads and their element would directly impact whatever the 2 heads would do like how air would have one shooting electricity while the other fires wind.
8:58 but that wasn't retconned Kaos literally says that he will bring trouble to Skylands again one day he still calls himself an "ultimate evil overlord"
well technically the Chompies on SSA came in a variety of colors, Black for example was the default chompy color on dragon's peak. it was still just a plain chompy however. (purple was also a chompy color seen in certian heroic chalanges which still kept the normal abilites of a chompy, although it was dubbed endangered (and yes there was a purple one used in giants which wasn't endangered, they just reused assets))
53:51 well for at least for Dreamcatcher specifically it’s kinda fitting because, if I remember correctly, Dreamcatcher is made of mind magic, or at least something similar, which gives her quite the ego so, in other words, her power went to her head so beating her and breaking her ego like that causes her to shrink because her ego has shrunk as well
14:14 here's a non Canon close enough answer from my School vr game (Goalius: powering Arkeians isn't the only thing Petrified Darkness can do as it can create life)
51:51 This is all coming from memory, but I renmeber during Fantasm Forest there was an entire secrion (mainly the cave section) that was completely pitch black. It was a whole lot of trial and error just to get through that section. Edit: Looked at gameplay of it, and it wasn't completely pitch black but still dark. I think it might have just been my TV settings at the time.
I don’t think i saw it mentioned in the vid so i’ll bring it up here: Skylanders SuperChargers mobile has instant versions of the Dive Bomber and Dive Clops (you can see them in a gameplay video on my channel), as well as SS Stealth Elf and the Stealth Stinger (not on my channel yet but i can access/play as them). Likewise mobile Trap Team has instant Snap Shot and Food Fight
Here's a topic for the next video: Danganronpa voice actors in Skylanders. There were five VAs in Skylanders who also voiced Danganronpa characters in Danganronpa's English dub, those being: Hot Head was voiced by Patrick Seitz, who voiced Nekomaru in Danganronpa 2; Ember was voiced by Stephanie Sheh, who voiced Mikan in Danganronpa 2, Spyro in Imaginators was voiced by Matt Mercer, who voiced Haiji Towa in Ultra Despair Girls, Cynder was voiced by Erica Lindbeck in Imaginators, who voiced Kotoko Utsugi in Ultra Despair Girls, and Bash, who was voiced by Keith Silverstein, who voiced Mondo Owada in the first Danganronpa game.
that's not really an iceberg topic lmao, voice actors appear in several different things and the fact that they were in danganronpa isn't a special thing, no offense but the only person who'd consider that an actual iceberg topic is you lmaoo
Wait I just realised… academy spoiler warning bellow Aurora and kaos are cousins technically aren’t they? If kaos is eons son in the show and aurora is eons niece aren’t they related?
Tbh I feel like sunburn would benefit from a reworked skylander/repose for different moves, sure he's a simple skylander just being some phoenix-like skylander but he has some good potential for his moveset I'm like the 1 sunburn fan out there lol Edit: i know zap got a repose or smth too, but i feel like most people forgot about him, sort of like sunburn, so maybe something could help zap too. Although it is sad to see the skylanders franchise essentially gone, its still fun coming up wuth concepts
As a Wii player, the reason I never upgraded is straight up, I couldn't afford any of the consoles. The Wii is genuinely the only console I own, and that's because it was my brother's first and then he gave it to me when he bought his Xbox (I to this day, don't know where he got the money).
57:46 yes someone can, they would be inspired by an ancient broken machine (because there’s no guarantee Blastertron would survive the whole 1,000 years) to create a new warrior Edit: Fixed wording
The funniest thing about this series is that every single skylanders game (except imaginators i believe) is available on the wii. I also have heard that the series was originally made with the wii in mind at first. Just thought that is interesting
There are exactly 57 new skylanders. 7 skylanders per element multiplied by the 5 elements give us 35. Plus 4, two light two dark gives exactly 39. Plus the elements that have 6 instead of seven give 57. I think this just means that the commercial got handed old info, and three characters got cut
One thing that I feel like should be on an ice berg is Trigger Happy's voice. in the ads he has this deep slavic sounding accent compared to in the game he has the high pitched hyperactive voice
In the arkeyan armory is a story scroll that says a couple of wizards created the arkeyans and left them behind well little hint at least in the scroll 📜
Actually it says a group of magicians killed the arkeyans.Those magicians probably being the giants. That or the legend of the giants was kept secret by eon and it was interpreted as wizards destroying arkyus instead of the giants as the legend grew older Yeah i am pretty good at reconciling continuity errors when it comes to this franchise lol
my theory to why no skylanders in the future is that irl skylanders 7 never happened but in universe it did and they were all sent to earth but cuz no sky7, no sending them back boom
Hey umm, i thought about something. What if there was a Skylanders multi-player "shooter" that was sort of in the style of Plants VS. Zombies GW2 and hero based shooters like Paladins or Overwatch. A 1st or 3rd person 12v12 where you'd have all your basic modes such as payload and TDM BUT i must emphasise the main feature: A gamemode in the style of the original games where itd tell a story of its own. The way the game would be modeled: A free to play game that would maintain the toys to life style. *However* thered be a simple way of gaining skylanders without needing to buy anything. You'd obtain them by just playing the game. A chaotic mess of a multiplayer game would be cool in this setting. Taking at least one aspect from each game so that everyone has a slice of cake. And also i just really wanna whack people with a chompy handpuppet.
Is there anything you don’t complain about ?? This is supposed to be your favorite franchise, and yet it feels like you have negative stuff to say about absolutely everything from it 💀

feels nice not having to wait 3 months for a new sgtv video 🙏😎❤
It’s been 6 months now 😢

im really liking the editing on this one! i love the improvements you've made over the years

Hey! Thanks for shouting me out in the intro (I was Inevitable Spend) I was really proud of it so I'm glad you noticed it!
8:58
but that wasn't retconned
Kaos literally says that he will bring trouble to Skylands again one day
he still calls himself an "ultimate evil overlord"
Noodles doing Gangnam Style is just so pure. 💎
The master quintology was filled with moments like that
Thanks for including me in the video! It turned out great!

45:51 that concept for smash hit is so awesome i wish it was real
14:14 here's a non Canon close enough answer from my School vr game (Goalius: powering Arkeians isn't the only thing Petrified Darkness can do as it can create life)
Actually blastertron will still be made because as long as he dies before then they will still make him.

Great video! I swear you’re the only skytuber who can pull off hour long videos. 😅
Superchargers wasnt retconned because the game after it was not canon. Nuff said
I don’t think i saw it mentioned in the vid so i’ll bring it up here:
Skylanders SuperChargers mobile has instant versions of the Dive Bomber and Dive Clops (you can see them in a gameplay video on my channel), as well as SS Stealth Elf and the Stealth Stinger (not on my channel yet but i can access/play as them).

Woohoo!! Been hoping for another of these
58:00 interms of Element effectivness, there was a book series ages ago that confirmed a simular thing lore wise
i think it was the element books

11:29 He is one of the best Skylanders I've ever played as. What are you on about?
2:50 Eon's elite figures can also change paths (atleast in imaginators)
I actually kind of like the Swap Force chomy design. It’s really goofy.
I miss playing these games.
I remember getting spyros adventure for Christmas and playing it in the living room all night. When life was simple. 😢
Wait I just realised… academy spoiler warning bellow
Aurora and kaos are cousins technically aren’t they? If kaos is eons son in the show and aurora is eons niece aren’t they related?
Was waiting a long time for this! Thanks
The flash games were plentiful on skylanders website,but i only remember a superchargers water one and trap shadow puzzle one
Wouldnt the imaginators level cap go up to 65 with happy birthday ben starcast?
Finally I’ve been waiting for thing thank you
The traps could just make the villains see the light and make them realize that what they have done was wrong
Which explains why kaos is already out of his trap by SSC because he did not see the light till the end of THAT game
As I like skylanders but at 63 have know ideas what an skylander iceberg is
I hope too be impressed!
But keep the conversation positive people ❤
The legends have united
36:54 you better love me
Incredible video!
Kaos also had a giants prototype figure where he was in the magic element
My mom almost bought a mcdonalds figure, she didn't because she saw there was no base
Tbh I feel like sunburn would benefit from a reworked skylander/repose for different moves, sure he's a simple skylander just being some phoenix-like skylander but he has some good potential for his moveset

The Xbox 360 was already a cheap console by 2013 as it was almost a decade old and replaced by the next gen
57:46 yes someone can, they would be inspired by an ancient broken machine (because there’s no guarantee Blastertron would survive the whole 1,000 years) to create a new warrior

57:04 this along with loz oot and pokemon is why video games and time travel don’t get along
I saw this was out and thought “Yes! Another one!”
50:58 bro what is that Spyro figure there lol
Looks kinda creepy
One thing that I feel like should be on an ice berg is Trigger Happy's voice. in the ads he has this deep slavic sounding accent compared to in the game he has the high pitched hyperactive voice

I wonder how far down the Titan sub was able to go.
Alen Jackson said best it 5:00 someware
my theory to why no skylanders in the future is that irl skylanders 7 never happened but in universe it did
and they were all sent to earth
but cuz no sky7, no sending them back
boom
Hey umm, i thought about something.
What if there was a Skylanders multi-player "shooter" that was sort of in the style of Plants VS. Zombies GW2 and hero based shooters like Paladins or Overwatch.
A 1st or 3rd person 12v12 where you'd have all your basic modes such as payload and TDM
BUT i must emphasise the main feature: A gamemode in the style of the original games where itd tell a story of its own.
The way the game would be modeled: A free to play game that would maintain the toys to life style.
*However* thered be a simple way of gaining skylanders without needing to buy anything. You'd obtain them by just playing the game.
A chaotic mess of a multiplayer game would be cool in this setting. Taking at least one aspect from each game so that everyone has a slice of cake.
And also i just really wanna whack people with a chompy handpuppet.
18:57 I þought þey looked more cartoony and expressive in þat redesign, which I prefer because I like cartoons
How did you not mention that there is Skylanders rap songs on this iceberg?
Wolfgang x Reader where
Isnt that more of a joke
Besides Tessa x Reader is better anyday
13:07 What is that sound?
That’s what I’m saying
It's his dog
how did i end up here I was just looking at the cuckoo clocker boss fight
Let me just say that sunburn is not the only skylander from the originals to not get a repose boomer didn’t get one too ! Good video tough
Boomer had an eons elite
We should make a video on skylanders voice actors
don't froget that toys for bob created the madagascar video games!
YOO drill x survived!
damnit im late ill watch it from the beggining
Hello
Yes
4th video gonna be great
Is there anything you don’t complain about ?? This is supposed to be your favorite franchise, and yet it feels like you have negative stuff to say about absolutely everything from it 💀
Sunburn has the ability ( blaze dragon ) powerfull my opinion
Only need chompymage then I have the big 3
skylanders do die actually as the nfc can be worn out.
Are there actually Skylanders in Ready Player One? Lol
Probably fake news sadly
The Amibos own game is Smash Bros obviously😂
This videos theory’s are completely wrong: I’ll knock you forward and back with a robo attack cause your messing with the wrong machine
w video
W video
I used to have a ub funky😢 edit I found the ub funky
Who is the first skylander because when you look it up it says Jet worrier and that’s not a skylander
Sunburn is good but you need to Learn how to use it
As a official wii player I can admit the game is buggy
Not again 🤦♂
