I have just bought the starter pack to Giants on a site like Ebay, and It all works fine and I'm Loving the game already, but i got some questions.

My figures have been played with before, not much though, but i would like to reset their level so I can play them up. Is this possible and how?

I want to buy some more figures but which are most important?

Whats the different of Giants and the small ones?

Is there some figures there are need to play through the game and some that are just "for fun"?

Well, I think that was it for now. '

Im sorry if my english isen't so good, I do not use it as main languish, as Im Dane :-D

To reset a figure you go to yours stats screen then you click manage then click reset.

You should get all eight elements and a giant to get 100%

Giants can pick up boulders, move islands and unlock certain treasure chests.

You can play any Skylander it doesn't matter who.

Hope this helps!

while playing the game, go into the menus, there is a option to reset your skylander.
If you choose not to reset them, make sure you at least "claim ownership" of them. That way they will appear in your "in-game collection" and you will get the bonus's of owning them.

To completely play the entire game, you need at least 1 skylander each of the 8 elements, and to make sure at least one of those 8 is a Giant.

In Giants, there are 48 different Skylanders. 6 for each element. (new skyanders in Swap Force will not work in Giants)
There are a lot more if you count in Variants (those are skylanders that are just different colors, but otherwise the same as there counterpart)

Giants can do things regular skylanders cant in the game.

Magic
Tech
Earth
Air
Fire
Water
Life (owning Tree Rex's covers this element and counts as a Giant)
Undead

perfect! I go looking.

Can adventure skylanders also be used in Giants? Shall the 8 elements be fromt the giants series or can they be from others?

yea all Adventure Skylanders work in Giants, but they wont have the extra Upgrade in game, or the Path Switching Ability, or unlock Heroic Challenges.
so its kinda pointless to by any Skylander that has a Series 2 version, unless you dont care about the extra bonus's.

I strongly suggest getting Stealth Elf, Wrecking Ball, Hot dog, Spyro, Pop Fizz and Ninjini.

^everyone's listing skylanders that are getting Series 2 versions in the very near future, making the Series 1 versions obsolete. (but then maybe the OP dont care about the bonuses)
I'm just saying because I started collecting when SSA first came out, and I regret buying every Series 1 just to have them become obsolete the next year.

A Series 1 is a characters first toy. A Series 2 is a repose with a new wow-pow power. A Lightcore is also a repose but it doesn't have a new power and only lights up.

well a Series 2 will have a Wow Pow, path switching, and unlock heroic challenges.
A Lightcore will have a LightCore Blast Attack, and unlock heroics.
In SSA, everything behaves the same way a Series 1 would, and always unlock heroics obviously.
Series 3 Skylanders are introduced in Swap Force, and have a different Wow Pow.
In Giants, they work the same way a Series 2 would.

Got some more questions now. :-)

Is it the same that giants works in swap force?

How long is the game in chapters? I had a goal of getting my 8 element skylander in level 10 before the game is over, do you think this is possible?

All characters work in SWAP Force, no matter if it's Series 1, 2, 3, LightCore, or Giant.


There are a total of 19 chapters (Including the two Adventure Packs), five of which are just boss fights.
