darkSpyro

...is kinda cute in the game. I mean sure he looks like a Gremlin, but I always found Gremlins cute, so... :3

Yeah, Spyro does look cute X3 He looks more like a Goblin Spyro

Yeah! <33

I'll admit, I hated it at first, but his new design has grown on me.

I'm still not keen on the red eyes, though.

Same for me, at first I was like "huh?", then he grew on me as time went on.

Same.

same^=I first saw him and I just didnt beleive it was him untill I read about the pic

Red Eyes mean his evil

Please, Jacky, Flame and Ignitus' eyes were red, and does that mean they're evil?

He is kinda cute when you get past the "grumpy old man" look.

And the fanart has been surprisingly adorable too, even the ones that try to make him look "ugly."

Given that the day before Skylanders was announced I'd seen some really horrible and assumed to be official art of a really ugly adult Spyro in the LoS vein, I was fond of Skyro from the start. He took some getting used to, but the more everyone whined about his looks, the more I paid attention and the more I started to like the little guy. He's so ugly he's cute.

As for the red eyes, I thought they were a nice touch. It makes him stand out and it's no stranger than the blue, brown, black, or varying shades of purple his eyes have been in the past.

Red eyes mean he is in his Super form.....

Lol, his Super Spyro form.

I adore Spyro's gremlin look. At first, I was a little weary about it, but now, his new look grew on me.

I like the concept art of Spyro in Skylanders, but in the game, not really, although I like his tail tip, and his wings, so that's something at least.

Hmm.... Hard for me to call him cute. Just my opinion. I'd use the word cool though.

He looks great and cute, and his eyes look like he's ready to battle.

I like his face from the side; in the gameplay video where he's flying his head and neck make him look like a cute little snakey.

Exactlyyy!!!

Spyro is pretty cute in this game.

It's decent, but how the heck can such a tiny form hold up such a large head and set of horns? I would think gravity would have him dragging his skull across the ground the entire time. *brick'd* x.x;

How could he fly with such small wings? Logically, a dragon wouldn't be able to fly unless they had wings larger than their body.

The wings aren't small, Fireball, they're folded. If you looked at his character trailer, Spyro's wings are larger and longer as his body.

Why are you guys always bringing up the laws of nature when discussing Spyro? His element is MAGIC, for goodness' sake! If he can walk in DotD on legs that are very obviously broken and/or have too many joints in them, he's not going to have any trouble flying as a Skylander in a world that is very obviously magical and cartoony.

How could DotD Cynder have a huge chest like she did without toppling over face first into the ground?

Why is that something EVERYONE notices, I didn't notice it until I came on here.

I was more concerned about how she was able to breathe with all her organs crammed into her upper torso and her neck stuck on top of her shoulders like that. Come to think on it, though...how did that scrawny neck hold up her gargantuan head?

She does have a small neck..

Her head honestly didn't seem that big.

Her horns in ANB though......

They fit the antagonist persona though.

Yeah, the horns in ANB were long, but the looked lightweight and her neck was definitely proportioned well enough to hold them up.

Yes they are EVIL, Having Tara Strong doing that voice that reminded me of those great shows made me cry...And ignitus how he played innocent when he really wanted some kid to do all the hard stuff for him.

Tara Strong? I know she's in everything, but she wasn't in LoS at any point. Cree Summer, Mae Whitman, and *shudder* Christina Ricci voiced the only female character we see more than once (Cynder). Sparx's mother Nina is voiced by an actress I don't recognize, and everyone else is a dude (usually voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson or Cyril's VA who is crazy famous but I can't remember his name).

But I do admit that I was always quite suspicious of the LoS dragons. They seemed a bit genocidal and racist to me. Also extremely lazy, what with constantly pawning their problems off on their descendants (even Spyro did it in the end) and expecting an inexperienced hatchling to succeed where trained warriors failed (thank goodness for the world that Spyro has an amazing ability to attract constant deus ex machina, or they'd all be in real trouble).

"Genocidal and racist"? How's that? Lazy, maybe (I guess they figured they were old enough to retire ), but genocidal and racist?

In a fantasy world where everyone is racist against themselves because the aren't purple, they've dumped the weight of the world on a purple dragon. Sucks to be him right now.

Jacky Jacky, always talking off-topic when it's not needed..

The games strongly imply that the dragons are the cause of the apes' extinction and all signs point to them doing that on purpose. I don't buy that the apes are evil just because, but the dragons sure seem to think that they're all born bad. And Gaul himself says that the apes have suffered at the dragons' behest. Ergo, dragons are racist and genocidal.

They also seem pretty arrogant towards all of the other creatures (the moles outright worship them, poor deluded things; both the cheetahs and the Atlawa strongly implied that they wanted nothing to do with dragons after the dragons caused them some great hardships; and the dragons themselves behave in such a way that it sure seems like they think they should be in charge of everything, even Spyro starts acting like this by the end).

Whee, off-topic! But at least we're still talking about Spyro for a change.

lol They would've made Spyro have a long snout like a crocodile in Skylanders or redesigned him as a wyvern X3

Spyro as a wyvern, that would be interesting.

lol Spyro also would've been a chinese dragon or some other kind of dragon.

I'm more interested in the wyvern one.

It would be funny to see spyro as a chinese dragon.

Lol, it actually would, I just had an image in my mind for a split second.

I take Mae and Cree over any female VA anyday.
Maybe Jennifer Hale

Do you?! Oh wow, that is fascinating, thank you so much for sharing this. In another topic you'll be talking about roses most probably.

That was unnecessarily rude. He was still more or less being on topic (Mae and Cree voiced Cynder in TEN and AN. You, on the other hand, have derailed things for the sake of a snarky insult.

The only problem I have with is the fact that I just recently got used to the DotD design, so now I have to get used to a completely different design.

It's like just kicking the habit of smoking, only to start doing cocaine.

Still looks like it would've snapped her neck backwards to me.

Meh, you'll get used to it. You should try being a Spyro fan from the Insomniac days or, better yet, a Tomb Raider fan. They changed Lara Croft for every single new game she had since 2006.
