- What is your favorite Skylander?
Skylander has been a major part of my life for as long as I can remember. Buying the new games each year, watching CZcams videos, and making Let Plays are some of my most fond childhood memories. However, my favorite thing to do was hunt RARE SKYLANDERS. In today's video, I talk about the different variations that were released as well as some of the most expensive Skylanders in the world.

SIR YES SIR
Can you talk about the imaginator exclusive Ben starscast? It is an exclusive variation made for Tom Brady’s son birthday
I have the e 3 ones
Dude You have Almost all your facts Wrong And hey at least tell the actual history when you say You gonna say the history
If I’m not mistaken, the rarest Skylander would probably be the “Happy Birthday Ben Master Starcast” chase variant ,considering it was only available as a party favour at Ben Brady, Son of Tom Brady’s, 7th birthday, due to Tom Brady being good friends with Bobby Kotick, the CEO of Activision Blizzard
Cough cough heartbreaker buckshot
Heartbreaker buckshot doesn’t count as it it never saw the day of light…

My favorite “rare” skylanders are probably the 3ds exclusive ones since not only did they encourage me to play these side games, some of them actually have unique movesets like Dark Spyro did (even if they were only different on the 3ds).
I once played Skylanders with a kid who owns the evil dude figure, apparently hes a button-mash to win character. The kid lives just a block away from me but I haven't seen him in years, hope hes doing well.
I'll never forget buying my Ro-bow and the other pieces of the adventure pack at a thrift store for 5$, then realizing this was the dude that people kept going on about for being stupidly rare and impossible to find.
The only rare Skylanders I owned when I was a kid was the Legendary Pack of Skylanders that was a ToysRus Exclusive I remember my Abuela bought it for me at the Time Square ToysRus.(Best location ever may it rest in Piece) I got Bash,ChopChop,and Spyro!
I think you forgot the most rarest skylander. This skylander no one knows how many there are but, it’s called happy birthday Ben star cast for skylanders imaginators. If you look this up there aren’t really any listing AT ALL not even a speck of information from when it was last sold (which I will tell you when it was sold in a minute here) so the real backstory of this skylander was if you were a friend of Tom Brady’s son yeah that’s right the nfl man himself and if you went to his birthday party you were given this skylander new in box. Now, what I told you this was hundreds or maybe thousands of dollars in value? Well uhhh… you would be right since in early October of 2023 someone had a listing for it, and the bid on eBay WENT OVER 6,000 DOLLARS. I was absolutely blowing my brains out when I saw this but anyways great video and hoped you learned something 😅
Laiyenz i appreciate youre dedication to this channel. I love the goofy videos and the way you interact with us. Favorite skylanders memory was always wanting skylands until one day when at my grandmas house in florida she said she had an xbox 360 but no games but she said we could buy one. We went to a gamestop and bought skylanders imaginators. This might be my best memory as a 9 year old
🤍thanks for the support
Chaos was my favorite rare one we was also fun to play in game
I got a Gnarly Tree Rex back when it was exclusively bundled with a Wii console. The stars aligned since my old Wii broke right around the time Giants came out…
Then they just released it separately in stores a few months later. So I owned the absolute rarest Skylander at the time… for a couple months.
Are you talking about the blue one, because I have one to
I remember accidentally bricking my Dark Sorceror Imaginator card (wiped it via either Giants Wii or that one of the 3DS games that worked on) and contacting Activision support in Twitter DMs. They sent me a Dark Creation Crystal before it was available outside of the Dark Starter Pack! If I remember correctly, they had no idea that these games could wipe imaginators; I asked the guy to at least add a disclaimer of some sort and they said they'd send that idea off to the higher-ups.
i have all of the classic skylanders at the end, the only ones i dont have are the bone hotdog and the october guy you mentioned you had at the start
i need the amibo skylanders so bad
Not the Yokai watch musik in the background, I love it😂😂
4:29 Still can't believe I found him at Five Below of all places, along with Jade Fire Kraken 💀
The rarest skylanders item may not even be a Skylande itself but the skylanders art books that shit was a bitch to get my hands on even got the swap force artbook signed by the devs, the there’s thrillipede who’s standard release never came out in America only just Easter variant
I really like my Scarlet Ninjini. Most variants looked like lazy recolors that only had 1-2 colours on em, but some like her and the holiday versions were really neat. I kind of regret selling my glow in the dark QuickDraw Rattle Shake as he's one of my favourite characters, but I've got so many of these and preferred the original yellow one.
I had some skylanders a while back but it was thrown out accidentally. one day i might start collecting them again
Kickoff countdown was my favorite and main skylander i always used him if I could. And a core memory I have is my mom coming home from grocery shopping saying “I have a gift” and it being a seasonal skylander.
I remember when I was like 5, I had legendary jawbreaker. I don’t have really any other variants, but years later I got the fabled Jingle belle chompy mage!
I respect your opinions on swap force, im more a giants guy myself, but i can respect your opinion : )
The only "rare" skylanders i own is kickoff countdown, camo and dark supershot stealth elf
Kickoff Countdown's best feature is that he adds the Kickoff Hat (+12 Speed, +10 Crit Hit) to your collection. If you're going for a no-damage run, reduced damage from better Armor doesn't help, so the KO Hat is a great option to have.
it was until watching this video that i realized i never had the normal variant of krypt king
i always thought the nitro version was just how he looked 💀
I remember losin my sh8 when I realized there was a super mario crossover
late to this but i love the subtle nod to yo kai watch ost during the video. great content. earned a sub.
Do you have the limited edition Egon Skylander??
Now I’m gonna try to get top commenter good luck
The yokai song in the background❤😂
I got jade fire kraken hes actually cool as hell, i do want quickdraw rattle shake at some point too
Jade Fire Kraken's gold highlights do look great. I also prefer QD Rattle Shake because his whole body (almost) is made of glow-in-the-dark plastic.
Do you Have Chrome Spyro Because i do! Still in box
I had the Frito-Lay glow in the dark snake guy and I loved him
Haven't thought about my skylanders in quite some time, surprised theres still such a following for them. I think i still have mine put away somewhere. I remember my first figure being an early Drobot, got it before I even had a copy of the game.
im curious, if you could make a new skylanders game, what would the gimmick be?
i guess if i could, it would be something relation to be able to change accessories. for example, swapping weapons, any kind of additions like jetpacks or whatever. you would have multiple changable areas, one for each arm, one for each leg, one for the back, one for the head. somethin like that, but ofc some would only have 1 arm for example. or no legs or whatever
I got a 35 dollar golden swashbuckler
I remember after giants came out I found a gold S2 flameslinger in a bazaar. I was so hype and paid like £2 which was insane. I suppose because the sellers didn't know his worth. Admittedly now that gold flameslinger isn't TOO hard to come by, but it was definitely the coolest thing I had at the time
out of all the skylanders I've collected over the years my top favourite would have to be jade flashwing, it took me a while before i got one, but one day my sister found one for me, i also have jade firekraken, two hard to get skylanders I've still been trying to get is hardboiled flarewolf and skylanders mini breeze.
I had the dark Spyro which came with the 3ds starter pack in Australia
My mom just sold my whole original skylanders and skylanders giant pack for 50$ today. The giants themselves add up over $200 as a whole. I remember playing with these as a kid and getting some rare ones from my brother who actually went out and scanned bags to get “rare” characters. Most interesting ones I had were Dino-bash, sunburn, and Sonic eagle variants among other ones. Never really thought about them being sold until my mom just randomly sold the whole thing without researching for $50. Sad.
The yokai watch Background Music :)
I love penguin champs (this is the less random pika poo iv ate)
I did remember at the toy fair of 2014 or 2013 if you go the skylanders section they will give you a free red dune bug
I remember getting the translucent red Drill Sergeant variant as a kid.
Yo laiyenZ what is your favorite scott the woz episode?
probably the gameboy advance one
Super valid, mine personally is either borderline forever or ride to hell retribution
The thing about rare variant Skylanders for me is that unless they actually look different in game... I could not care less about them.
There's absolutely nothing stopping me from taking a regular version of a Skylander, and painting it to match a rare variant and it would be no different.
But if the in game character matches... then I'm interested.
Love this vid😊
I always went for quantity over quality, I’d rather have a bunch of regular Skylanders than a few cool looking ones, plus if the didn’t appear in game that color I didn’t want to buy it.
The bag of chips with the glow in the dark figure hit me different. I wanted that figure so bad
Glad to see some Swap Force love! And seriously, there are definitely a LOT of really expensive Skylanders.. just to warn you, collecting one of every single figure produced would cost over $20k... Pretty crazy, right?
the base of my easter trigger happy fell of like a year after i got it,none of my skylanders have ever broke like that before
jade fire kraken, i used to have one!
I have sold off most of my Skylanders, but I have held onto three items; all of my Kaos items. The Kaos Trap, the Kaos Trophy, and the Kaos Sensei figure.
what is your favorite skylander?
Wham-shell
Beez
My favorite Skylander is Lob-Star he's freaking awesome he's been my favorite ever since Trap Team
Chop chop
snap shot
honestly Giants was my favorite. Swap Force was when I started to fall out of it.
I had a bunch of skylanders some rare when I was young but sold them all for like 50 bucks and that was the biggest mistake of my life😭
My only really rare skylanders are royal double trouble and gold Frito fright rider
I kid you not, I was able to get kickoff countdown when I was a kid and I still have him. While I do not remember how I got him since my memory is trash, I'm just lucky to have him.
I have a friend of mine who has every single Skylander imaginators character. Including the most expensive ones like Row Bow, Kaos, and Chompy Mage. And I think he also has every single version of those but I'm not sure... Maybe I should ask him next time I meet him.
Happy birthday Ben starcast is rarer to my knowledge
“We first have to understand…”
Me: Qauntam Mechanics?
“The franchise as a whole.”
Oh…
MY dad went nuts over those fritolay skylander thigns as a kid. got so many free skylanders from it.
my winter lobstar broke his hand off when I was young, it was very sad day for young me. Then I learned about glue
I do could get every dark Skylanders, except Dark Bowser and Dark Donkey Kong, they, somehow, never shown up in stores in my country.
I love club penguin (this is the most random comment i typed)
you and me have the same variations
for trap team
I miss skylanders
Found the dark edition bowser in garage sale shit was lit
Robow and orange Orange Chain Reaction
I used to have some rareish skylander before my mom sold them now my only one rareish one is kick off countdown
how tf i recognized the music from Yokai watch
The one I consider rare is the toysRus skylanders because being discontinued and hard to find in toysRus as well
I have so many left over from my childhood, if I could sell them I’d make bank.
My favorite rare skylander is the Cleveland Brown skylander
I have ro-bow still in the box
4:42 I got this one from I remember
Yo kai watch music in the background???
Trap Team was fucking elite, I don’t care what anybody says.
My dog messed up my fuzzy Stump smash :( He’s worth like 200 or something like that, so sad.
My easter trigger goes for about 600 euros in mint I'm pretty sure there was only one in every toys for us
I’m pretty sure the Sonic voice actor was there because of him voicing Stink Bomb and Freeze Blade or something
My favorite rare skylanders are echo spotlight and blackout
Yokai watch music in the background???
6:28 I have that. Edit I have the normal donkey Kong Skylander from the Wii u release
By the way, you can only play as donkey, Kong and Bowser on Nintendo consoles only
Dark spyro is mine (I'm a cheapscape who doesn't like spending 10$ plus on one skylander
Purple fire bone hot dog, I want him but he’s so expensive 😅😂🥲
The Obvious Reason We See Loose Figures Is Because Of Defects That Didn't Make It Into Retail Packaging There Slight Defects! Just Like The Crystal Figures On Ali Express Have You Ever Heard Of ( Quality Control )
When I was young I loaned my friend rock candy painyatta. Then he broke it about a year after. I forgot to pick it up. And now I’ve found out it’s worth 400 dollars
i hate that the chaos figure thumbnail got me in 2024
I have a nitro crip king so thats cool
Option is not Fact the Fact Is Over 85 Million Pokemon 3DS Games Were Sold & All Of The 3Ds Pokemon Games Are Beloved! ❤💙
6:11 I have Springtime Tigger Happy at my house
I’ve got a wild storm in a Robo take your picK😮
Not rare but I bought Nitro Krypt King and Legendary Jawbreaker off Ebay about 2 years ago for £20 so I technically got a buy one get one free deal on them. (and yes Trap Team was my favouite and I don't care what anyone says)

4:30 I only uave that rare one not the normal one
my favorite skylanders rare is Chompy Mage! (Sensei-villain in imaginators)
😂 You wanna hear something kind of sad?
Waaaay back when I was a mini-figure version of myself now, I would go to stores looking for a skylander to buy. Sometimes I would go there and find chase variants like polor whirlwind, red drillbot or a metalic swapper. But because i was a kid, and I kid you not here, i would scoff and wonder why anyone would want a character that was a solid color when the regular characters looked cooler. 😢 Oh this karma I have must be a crop of my past hubris.... i flew too close to the sun only to find regret in my philosophy of "but dat 1 looks c00ler!1". 😅
And those aren't just random examples i can still kind of remember these exact characters on a shelf and being like "I think I'll get the regular version of this one. Oh cool, whirlwind is even in a three pack!"
Anyone remember how OP stealth elf was or just me?
My favorite sky lander is night shift
Literally today I finally beat trap team
I remember baby me wanting to get the frito lay baby skylanders
Not the YKW themes in the background lol
