SuperChargers was the first to break this rule, with its figures only being compatible with SuperChargers (and the later game Imaginators) despite having figures of some of the same characters from earlier games. This is because even though the characters themselves were familiar faces from previous games, their SuperChargers figures actually had redesigned skill trees, and in some cases completely different play styles than their earlier games' versions. New Storyline and Gameplay – Skylanders Imaginators features an all-new adventure-filled, comedic and charming story with fun new characters, as well as returning franchise favourites. The game delivers a diverse and dynamic story-driven gameplay experience, focused on the magic of sparking imagination, inspiration and excitement of kids as they create their own superheroes – all set within a variety of compelling new environments. For example, the character Shroomboom had his "Series 1" debut figure in the second Skylanders game, Skylanders Giants. However, he did not have a figure in the third game, Swap Force, at all. Instead, his "Series 2" figure came in the fourth game, Trap Team, as Sure Shot Shroomboom. So for this character, if you have the "Series 2" version of his figure from Trap Team, using the rule of thumb, since his "Series 1" debut was in Giants, his "Series 2" Trap Team figure is compatible with Giants, Swap Force, Trap Team, and later games. Unique SWAP Force Zones – Skylanders SWAP Force characters feature new abilities – such as flying, climbing, digging, bouncing, or teleporting – each of which can be explored in new areas of Skylands.

Searching for the Activision logo etched into the underside of a figure is the most reliable way of confirming that you are looking at a Skylanders figure when in doubt, and applies to every figure in the franchise, not strictly SuperChargers vehicles. Most figures, but not all, will have their in-game element symbol etched there as well.The story of Skylanders Imaginators takes place long ago when the Ancients used a mysterious power known as "Mind Magic" to create everything in Skylands. With it, they conjured into existence anything that they could imagine! However, they soon learned that in the wrong hands, it could be very dangerous, and so they sealed it away so that it could never be misused. After discovering this ancient secret, Kaos has unleashed the power of "Mind Magic" into Skylands once again – and he is using it to create an unstoppable army of Doomlanders, the likes of which have never been seen! Now it’s up to Portal Masters to create Skylanders Imaginators from their own imagination and stop Kaos and his evil Doomlanders before it is too late. And to help train them, Eon is sending the greatest mystic warriors of all time – the Senseis!

In this installment, another setting is introduced with the Cloudbreak Islands. This is where a player takes control of the newly-introduced group of Skylanders referred to as the “Swap Force.” They have the ability to swap skills and they can also be divided into halves. Most of the Skylanders utilise them to fight not just against Kaos but also his mother Kaossandra as well. From this base, the colour is blue. Activision published Skylanders, a toys-to-life action video game. This is the much-awaited spin-off of the Spyro series in which the character figures are placed and they are called the Skylanders on the Portal of Power. This is a device which can read the tags of the figures through the imports and the NFC - the playable character in the game. Start playing this game now. There are console versions with the same storylines. However, if you are a user of Nintendo 3DS, you may have to watch out for its different edition.

When 3DS counterparts of the games were still released, they were the only versions to have world names succeeding the levels in that world; while the console only had Chapters around various themes (and, in SuperChargers' case, normal levels divided by said Chapters). Upon playing the game, you will be set in a world called the Skylands. This is a realm which is made of floating islands and adventure. This is going to be the center of its universe that will be regularly threatened by evil forces who want to dominate Skylands so that they can get all the access to the worlds. Good thing, a group of heroes referred to as the Skylanders use their machinery and strength to defend the world. That is where the game begins!

UNLEASH IMAGINATION

According to Software Engineer, Robert Leyland, they did plan a sequel or Year 2 for Imaginators which would have been about making quadruped Imaginators, including dragons.
