This is a rant, but I'm not ranting about something about the money you need to spend in these games, but In something MORE important to me.

Artwork

I'm tired of seeing the same artwork everywhere, that crazy Trigger Happy on the lunchbox, the back pack, THE BREAKFAST MEAL.
Do something different, the artwork gets boring to see, and Box Appeal is main Appeal to me.
I know this may sound dumb, but er, yeah.

It's like how they keep using Drobot's old brown color instead of his green and brown variation.

I agree I hate how lazy they are at art work

I said this before but I completely agree. I do love the artwork for all the games they produce, the coloring and all is so cool, but seeing the same pictures on every single Skylanders themed product (back packs, shirts, lunchboxes, etc.) is a bit tiring.

I agree, especially on the SSA carrying case, where they have Sunburn's old design. That one ticks me off every time I see it.

I totally agree 100%- I'd probably be more likely to buy more merchandise if it weren't for how boring it all was.

I don't like getting angry to that point.
If I do, it's to punch somebody, and I can't punch activision smilie

I can get behind this. For all the money they are putting into this franchise, you'd think they'd hire more artists to do some cover work. There are lots of artists out there that could make really great art in the same style as their current art.

Stop phoning it in Activision. If you're going to put out 1000 different items, then hire some artists to decorate those pieces. It might increase the sales. Your laziness is going to lose customers. I being one of them.

Totally agree. I LOVED that the Skylanders GIANTS 2013 calendar had Tree Rex's face on the cover and all old S:SA artwork inside. That wasn't false advertising AT ALL!

I agree but they should focus on making the games better more than anything else. The game honestly feels tacked on compared to the focus they give to toys and useless merch.

This reminds me I've been meaning to ask you guys:

You know those wallpapers they have on skylanders.com that you find in the treasure boxes if you float around here and there?

Are there any more of those other than the ones that have been on there for quite some time now? (Tree Rex/Cynder/Prism Break/Jet-Vac)

Really like those cuz they include the character's name and the Giants logo. But I've never seen any different ones of the same variety.

I agree. The art is so boring now! They should do diffrent art things for the T-Shirts and anyway even though there are lots of skylanders im sure they could atleast do 2 more diffrent art things...
