Skylanders Party Supplies

by AlanB

Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure and Skylanders: Giants proved to be very popular. Now, there are a few Skylanders Party Supplies available for your next Skylanders Birthday Party!

Activision’s Skylanders absolutely exploded during last Christmas 2012 with the release of Skylanders Giants. Stores such as Walmart completely sold out of this popular game that combines character figures with a portal that allows players to battle their characters on popular video game consoles such as Xbox 360, Playstation 2 and Nintendo Wii. Predictably, Skylanders party supplies will be releasing in the form of cake decoration kits and cupcake rings. Hopefully in the future we’ll see a release of Skylanders themed tableware, favors and decorations.

What Is Skylanders?

Revival of a Popular Video Game Character Spyro

Skylanders GameSkylanders is actually based upon the popular video game character named Spyro.  Toys for Bob – an American video game developer - was tasked with reviving Vivendi’s old Spyro the Dragon franchise.  And, after going through several initial ideas they came up with Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure.  Based upon the results, the decision to go with a kids friendly version featuring the integration of figures and video game consoles instead of a more mature Spyro game was the right one.

Skylanders: Giants

A sequel named Skylanders: Giants was released back in October 2012.  This version of the game features giant figures that are considerably bigger than the figures from the initial Skylanders launch.  The larger character figures are also much bigger and more powerful than the other characters in the Skylanders video game portion of the game.

Skylanders: Spyro’s Universe

A spinoff Web game of the popular Skylanders franchise is currently in beta.  The game is called Skylanders: Spyro’s Universe and will feature online multiplayer gaming.  Check out the official Skylander’s Spyro’s Universe webpage.
