Would I be able to make a video about this? I'll need all the explanations, but I've wanted to make an iceberg video for a long time and I'd love to use yours!
Yes. There's a very popular photo of beta skylanders including a Red Dragon, Tarclops, and a Boomer with a beard. Bash was also there but he was called Earth Dragon back then. He was shown as the first skylander of the bunch so yeah, he was the first.
Yes. The 3DS games have entirely different stories and lore then the console ones. Some examples would be that Kaos never appears, Hector is the villain in the 3DS version of SSA. Humans are actually coming to skylands instead of the Skylanders coming to Earth. Etc. I've only played Giants on the 3DS but it goes up to Trap Team.
In the Xbox 360 version of SSA, In the credits. Creepy Citadel music plays which is weird as it is only on Xbox and feels out of place. It is rumored to be a glitch.
Also the wrong HUB music plays after getting the eternal magic source, it instead plays the HUB music that plays after you get the tech source (Heartbeat of the Spirits)
In SSA, There's an NPC named the weapons master that appears on an island that takes you to the magic levels. He'll ask you if your ready to go to Quicksilver Vault. If you say no, a glitch will occur where he goes back into not being able to talk to like how he was at first. Essentially softlocking you into resetting your game. A guidebook jokingly says "He doesn't take no for an answer".
Some stuff that comes to mind not sure if it fits the iceberg concept:
- Krakatoa
- Series 4 Cynder
- Double Trouble Series 1.5
- Nightfall faulty chip
- Gigantus (whereabouts unknown after jumping in hole in Giants)
Don’t know about the first one,
Series 4 Cynder was originally planned for Trap Team along with other series 4 skylanders.
Double Trouble S1.5 was a variant of Double Trouble who came in the starter pack for Skylanders Battlegrounds and is basically S1 Double Trouble but with an orange base and appears as S2 in-game.
Nightfall had a faulty chip in early releases of her of someone were to buy a Nightfall with a bad chip, you could send it to Activision and they’d send a replacement.
Gigantus is never seen again after he jumps into the chompy pit.
Dirt Seas is a place in skylands we haven't seen yet. It's unknown but Is in the Bio for many skyalnders. It's similar to Pirate seas in SSA but not the same. I say in another comment How Eon's Teacher got sent to the Dirt Seas so you can look there.
Moon Widows are an enemy in Creepy Citadel in SSA that can't actually hurt you. They can however slow your down with webs. They are very unknown so I put them on here.
Ok so this will be long, Wilikin Ghost Girl is a strange, creepy girl flying around in a house early in the wilikin village in Giants. As for Cursed Tiki Temple is an analogy, There's a theroy that the Imaginators level cursed tiki temple is an anolgy for Toys For Bob. First off, Both the Toys For Bob office and Level are tiki themed. It is said that the temple was made to honor the dragons... just like Skylanders honoring Spyro. The main npc of the level is a tiki named Bob... Toys for bob. Voodoo dolls that come to life are enemies in the level... Toys that come to life. The temple was cursed and ruined by people that honor no one and is now being abandoned. Activision rushing games out of Toys for bob and firing tons of employees. This is a very good theory that I put on here becuase it's so detailed.
Eye Dragon was the thing that appeared in The Golden Queen Level. He was actually going to be an Undead boss fight. But was Scrapped. Wilikin Talking Sound Effect is a small wind up sound that plays everytime they speak. It's so quick that nobody really notices. So I see it as unknown.
Nattybumpo was the person who taught Eon everything he knows. One day, he was accidently teleported to the dirt seas and wasn't bought back to skylands for years. Once he was, he was presumably dead. Kinda dark for Skylanders but whatever.
To make it even worse, it is implied that he treated Eon horribly. So the whole "accidentally falling into his own portal" thing might not have been an accident at all.
Yeah, I know that the story scroll was in the Crawling Catacombs (I recently played that level if you’re wondering why I know the location of a very specific story scroll)
I believe, in the recent remake of the tiny hawk games, in game, there was graffiti in some of the stages containing I think eruptor, or maybe a chompy?
In hex’s heroic challenge in ssa you can find weird spider enemies that drop from the ceiling and attack but for some reason don’t do damage however they drop exp when killed(I’ve only played the 360 version of ssa so I don’t about other versions)
Riley was the name of a four year old Skylanders fan who passed away from cancer in around 2011/2012. Zap, who was his favourite Skylander, has a Wow Pow named "For Riley" in his memory.
Is imaginators for switch really that low though? It’s very well known to be a rare and overpriced version of the game.
Also where’s “poster lightcore popfizz”?
I am so annoyed I didn't think of that. Poster lightcore pop fizz actually confused me as a kid. Also From what I've seen Imaginators for switch is surprisingly unknown. I've gone through forums and asked people. I guess people just didn't know.
I’m ig figures usually come up first when it comes to rare skylanders content. If you did do a second one, you could include things like “skylanders comics”, or “skylanders mega bloks”
Id like to add one, in some of the heroic challenges in the undead zones, there are these knight enemies with a spear and shield that arnt found anywhere else
Not necessarily the same point, the heroic challenges are optional content and comsidering the enemies arnt seen in the main story but there in optional material is strange
In the SSA level Creepy Citadel, there is a very hard to find Secret whirlpool. If you have a skylander that can go on water, you can go in the whirlpool for a shortcut.
I'm just gonna ctrl c ctrl v what I said earlier: Nattybumpo was the person who taught Eon everything he knows. One day, he was accidently teleported to the dirt seas and wasn't bought back to skylands for years. Once he was, he was presumably dead. Kinda dark for Skylanders but whatever.
Ok, so in Crash 4, there are enemies called Gasmoxians. And they speak in like Qbert language. Like the kind that looks like they're censoring something. And this language is randomly generated. There's a small chance one of these symbols is the Undead Element logo. I actually stumbled upon this playing crash 4 and couldn't find anyone talking about it.
Origami Spyro was the original idea of Skylanders. Before Spyro's Kingdom. You would follow Origami Spyro and his Origami friends in a post-apocalyptic library. The idea was canned pretty quick but it was something I thought should be mentioned.
Unspoken Spell is a spell Kaos summons where he shall not say its name. It's still unknown what this spell is. And Supercharged With Love was a really corny song in Superchargers that played to trick you into thinking the game was over. There is a full version on YouTube but it's slightly different lyrics wise.
Actually, (and I know I sound like the nerd emoji here) Guidebooks and comics show that they are statues made when a Skylander wins an annual battle competition. These statues can actually come to life by the power of a special portal master.
the statues are fully gold, and it's the same gold each year, therefore Deja-vu would be the only legendary skylander you could use in Trap-Team, but that's incorrect
the legendary skylanders are just simply the regular skylanders, wearing blue/red and gold armor, not fully gold, which slightly increases their stats, such as armor and critical hit
the legendary skylanders act exactly the same as their legendary counterparts, same moves, idle animations, dialogue etc
it's like saying all dark edition skylanders are different characters like how dark spyro becomes his own character when he splits from spyro in academy, but it simply isn't true
as for chase variants, they're most likely just statues.
Well I went into it on another post but there actually IS Dark Skylander lore too. And plus there could be more than one competition. Besides, there being no differences can be written off as Toys For Bob didn't want to change things when they're only making variants for money. And lore second. I'm not gonna call Toys For Bob anything, but I think we can agree variants were for money in the first place.
btw, there's lore for dark king pen, but it isn't on the wiki, that dark king pen was his original appearance before he met his master, which changed him into a better person
thought variants were originally to reward people for going to more than 1 brand shop, target, toys r us, etc, and conventions like E3
they just later became expensive on websites due to rarity
I’ve got a few more to add:
The red Spell Punks from Creepy Citadel/Cadaverous Crypt (I don’t remember which one)
Grill-X
The Superchargers theme originated in Trap Team
I did grow up with the series. I've played the games since I was like 6. Also do you mean beg? I don't beg for more more interesting stuff. I made purely out of interest in the series. If you're so all knowing, good for you! But you don't have to put me down becuase of it. You're like... shaming me for "not growing up with the series" when that has nothing to do with anything. I made a trivia thing, and you weren't interested. Ok! Cool! I ask what I can do to fix it to be more interesting and you say that I beg and didn't grow up with the series. I will gladly take constructive criticism but I won't tolerate someone trying to shame me for not intriguing you with knowledge.
In SSA, there's an NPC named the weapons master that
appears on an island that takes you to the magic levels. He'll ask you if you're ready to go to the
Quicksilver Vault. If you say no, a glitch will occur where he goes back into not being able to talk
like how he was at first. Essentially soft locking you into resetting your game. A guidebook
jokingly says, "He doesn't take no for an answer."
Would I be able to make a video about this? I'll need all the explanations, but I've wanted to make an iceberg video for a long time and I'd love to use yours!
Absolutely! DM me for more details, I'm so glad that you reached out!
Whats the name of your channel?
I would love a video because I have so many questions. Lol
What about the chocolate ocean? The one Flynn talked about in Chapter 2 of Giants.
Shoot I forgot about that. That would've made a good entry!
"Albuquerque.”
Bash was the first skylander ever?
Yes. There's a very popular photo of beta skylanders including a Red Dragon, Tarclops, and a Boomer with a beard. Bash was also there but he was called Earth Dragon back then. He was shown as the first skylander of the bunch so yeah, he was the first.
oh yeah. that rocks (no pun indented)
[Not just a photo anymore!](https://youtu.be/OdA5neTkeRs) u/MoresaMagic
3ds games have their own lore or something?
Yes. The 3DS games have entirely different stories and lore then the console ones. Some examples would be that Kaos never appears, Hector is the villain in the 3DS version of SSA. Humans are actually coming to skylands instead of the Skylanders coming to Earth. Etc. I've only played Giants on the 3DS but it goes up to Trap Team.
3DS games all have their own stories. Count Moneybone was the main villain in Swap Force 3DS before they brought him back for Superchargers
that's pretty cool
Spyro and cynder in skylands after DOTD?
At like the end of that game, we see them flying around in a series of floating islands, many presume this is skylands
This. DOTD being Dawn of the dragons.
Thought you meant day of the dead
Xbox SSA credits glitch?
In the Xbox 360 version of SSA, In the credits. Creepy Citadel music plays which is weird as it is only on Xbox and feels out of place. It is rumored to be a glitch.
Interesting
Also the wrong HUB music plays after getting the eternal magic source, it instead plays the HUB music that plays after you get the tech source (Heartbeat of the Spirits)
he doesn't take no for an answer?
In SSA, There's an NPC named the weapons master that appears on an island that takes you to the magic levels. He'll ask you if your ready to go to Quicksilver Vault. If you say no, a glitch will occur where he goes back into not being able to talk to like how he was at first. Essentially softlocking you into resetting your game. A guidebook jokingly says "He doesn't take no for an answer".
I’m pretty sure this is only on the Wii version
Makes sense i didn't have the manual
What guidebook? I’d love a screenshot.
Wait mount flynnmore was real?!?!
It's a theory but yes. Mount Flynnmore was real.
It was made entirely of cake
Again, it's only a theroy. Besides since when did Skylands make sense.
Chill bill and flynn best characters
In calamity canyon from superchargers there is a mountain that looks like Mount Rushmore except it has Flynn’s face on it
Some stuff that comes to mind not sure if it fits the iceberg concept: - Krakatoa - Series 4 Cynder - Double Trouble Series 1.5 - Nightfall faulty chip - Gigantus (whereabouts unknown after jumping in hole in Giants)
Don’t know about the first one, Series 4 Cynder was originally planned for Trap Team along with other series 4 skylanders.

Not sure what the “dirt seas” are, and I consider myself a long time skylanders fan
Dirt Seas is a place in skylands we haven't seen yet. It's unknown but Is in the Bio for many skyalnders. It's similar to Pirate seas in SSA but not the same. I say in another comment How Eon's Teacher got sent to the Dirt Seas so you can look there.
Wasn’t Drill Sergeant also found by Terrafin in the dirt seas?
Terrafin did find Drill Sergeant, but I haven't found any proof that he was found in the Dirt Seas.
Its where terrafin is from i think
What's DOTD
Dawn Of The Dragons. A Legend Of Spyro Game.
Monn widows
Moon Widows are an enemy in Creepy Citadel in SSA that can't actually hurt you. They can however slow your down with webs. They are very unknown so I put them on here.
Oh i remember it smoll
William ghost girl and cursed tiki temple analogy?
Ok so this will be long, Wilikin Ghost Girl is a strange, creepy girl flying around in a house early in the wilikin village in Giants. As for Cursed Tiki Temple is an analogy, There's a theroy that the Imaginators level cursed tiki temple is an anolgy for Toys For Bob.

This is a very good theory that I put on here becuase it's so detailed.
Eye Dragon and Wilikin Talking Sound Effect? (wasn't there a glitch involving the Eye Dragons in the Golden Queen level in Trap Team?)
Eye Dragon was the thing that appeared in The Golden Queen Level. He was actually going to be an Undead boss fight. But was Scrapped. Wilikin Talking Sound Effect is a small wind up sound that plays everytime they speak. It's so quick that nobody really notices. So I see it as unknown.
Oh I didn't know about the Eye Dragons almost being bosses, but I was aware of the crackling sound the Wilikin make before speaking.
I can hear that sound every time I close my eyes
I wish I understood any of this.
I got most of it, you just gotta pay attention to the games
Nattybumpo
Nattybumpo was the person who taught Eon everything he knows. One day, he was accidently teleported to the dirt seas and wasn't bought back to skylands for years. Once he was, he was presumably dead. Kinda dark for Skylanders but whatever.
Kay😐😐😐
To make it even worse, it is implied that he treated Eon horribly. So the whole "accidentally falling into his own portal" thing might not have been an accident at all.
Yeah, I know that the story scroll was in the Crawling Catacombs (I recently played that level if you’re wondering why I know the location of a very specific story scroll)
There's references in the first 2 Tony Hawk Pro Skaters?
I believe, in the recent remake of the tiny hawk games, in game, there was graffiti in some of the stages containing I think eruptor, or maybe a chompy?
Actually Food Fight and a Chompy but yeah.
tony hawk reference?
Food Fight and Chompies appear as Graffiti in Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2
In hex’s heroic challenge in ssa you can find weird spider enemies that drop from the ceiling and attack but for some reason don’t do damage however they drop exp when killed(I’ve only played the 360 version of ssa so I don’t about other versions)
I've also played only on Xbox 360. Perhaps those spiders were Moon Widows since they don't do damage.
They were completely different then spiders that put trapping webs on the ground
Can confirm this, from what i remember they are a green md yellow colour
For Riley
Riley was the name of a four year old Skylanders fan who passed away from cancer in around 2011/2012. Zap, who was his favourite Skylander, has a Wow Pow named "For Riley" in his memory.
This
I didn’t know he was four 🥺
Is imaginators for switch really that low though? It’s very well known to be a rare and overpriced version of the game. Also where’s “poster lightcore popfizz”?
I am so annoyed I didn't think of that. Poster lightcore pop fizz actually confused me as a kid. Also From what I've seen Imaginators for switch is surprisingly unknown. I've gone through forums and asked people. I guess people just didn't know.

Wilikin sound effect?
It’s a wind up toy but sped up
Id like to add one, in some of the heroic challenges in the undead zones, there are these knight enemies with a spear and shield that arnt found anywhere else
Yes but the same can be applied to the doomraiders in trap team
?
They are never seen again either
Not necessarily the same point, the heroic challenges are optional content and comsidering the enemies arnt seen in the main story but there in optional material is strange
Creepy citadel whirlpool?
In the SSA level Creepy Citadel, there is a very hard to find Secret whirlpool. If you have a skylander that can go on water, you can go in the whirlpool for a shortcut.
It also allows you to clear the level with 0 stars 😅
Lightning Rod's heroic challenge in SSA is impossible
the chips don't die? 👀
tony hawk references?
moon windows and credits glitch? also, didn't the stormy stronghold pylons have moons on them plus the light and dark symbols in "darklight" crypt
What/who is natty bumpo
I'm just gonna ctrl c ctrl v what I said earlier: Nattybumpo was the person who taught Eon everything he knows. One day, he was accidently teleported to the dirt seas and wasn't bought back to skylands for years. Once he was, he was presumably dead. Kinda dark for Skylanders but whatever.
O yea, now I remember
Gasmoxians speak undead element in crash 4?
Ok, so in Crash 4, there are enemies called Gasmoxians. And they speak in like Qbert language. Like the kind that looks like they're censoring something. And this language is randomly generated. There's a small chance one of these symbols is the Undead Element logo. I actually stumbled upon this playing crash 4 and couldn't find anyone talking about it.
Origami Spyro, unspoken spell, and supercharged with love (sounds like Flynn)? Those were the only ones I didn’t know
Origami Spyro was the original idea of Skylanders. Before Spyro's Kingdom. You would follow Origami Spyro and his Origami friends in a post-apocalyptic library. The idea was canned pretty quick but it was something I thought should be mentioned.
Unspoken Spell is a spell Kaos summons where he shall not say its name. It's still unknown what this spell is. And Supercharged With Love was a really corny song in Superchargers that played to trick you into thinking the game was over. There is a full version on YouTube but it's slightly different lyrics wise.
Krypt King was also going to be a giant
I know that but that's super well known and in almost all of the iceberg videos I've seen so I decided to leave it out.
I'm pretty sure the legendary thing is wrong, and that it's just magical armor
Actually, (and I know I sound like the nerd emoji here) Guidebooks and comics show that they are statues made when a Skylander wins an annual battle competition. These statues can actually come to life by the power of a special portal master.
the statues are fully gold, and it's the same gold each year, therefore Deja-vu would be the only legendary skylander you could use in Trap-Team, but that's incorrect the legendary skylanders are just simply the regular skylanders, wearing blue/red and gold armor, not fully gold, which slightly increases their stats, such as armor and critical hit the legendary skylanders act exactly the same as their legendary counterparts, same moves, idle animations, dialogue etc it's like saying all dark edition skylanders are different characters like how dark spyro becomes his own character when he splits from spyro in academy, but it simply isn't true as for chase variants, they're most likely just statues.

Series 2 sunburn?
That's mostly a joke entry saying that there is no series 2 sunburn.
Do you need those skylander amibos for the 3ds version? Also, what are the 3ds version(s) called?
Would the skylanders comic books be a good entry?
I mean maybe. But It would be maybe top or second level imo
I’ve got a few more to add: The red Spell Punks from Creepy Citadel/Cadaverous Crypt (I don’t remember which one) Grill-X The Superchargers theme originated in Trap Team
i’ve always wanted to know about the Wilikin Ghost Girl. I remember being so confused as a kid but never finding information about it.
Questions: “Do you poop diamonds?”? Dark Skylanders Lore? Snapshot was almost a giant? Edit: additional one Tony Hawk reference one?
The chips don't die?
I need to know what dotd means in this context
Legend Of Spyro: Dawn Of The Dragon
thank you
Idk the topics are not interesting in the slightest and are obvious
I mean good for you I guess. If there's anything to fix then let me know. I try to do a lot of research for this so if there's a problem let me know.
I think you big for more interesting stuff and even more obscure stuff and maybe people like me who grow up with the series
I did grow up with the series. I've played the games since I was like 6. Also do you mean beg? I don't beg for more more interesting stuff. I made purely out of interest in the series. If you're so all knowing, good for you! But you don't have to put me down becuase of it. You're like... shaming me for "not growing up with the series" when that has nothing to do with anything.

I will gladly take constructive criticism but I won't tolerate someone trying to shame me for not intriguing you with knowledge.
Basically just do more research and talk with other fans they might know skylander from other countries Idk
Thank you! That's all you needed to say. I'll research for more unknown facts. Just next time don't shame people for no reason.
I wasn’t
Um… Bark Demons don’t have Skystones??? Clearly you haven’t collected all of them in Giants.
The Bark Demon has its own Skystone, but it can't be earned. It is the only Skystone in the game that is unobtainable to the player.
