So now we have the exclusive villains only for the 3DS version. However unlike the console versions, you can only play as the villains in Boot Camp challenges in the 3DS version. What do you think of them?

These villains are nightmare creatures that came from the Realm of Dreams lead by the game's main antagonist, the Dream Sheep and his sidekick the Sleep Dragon.

Dream Sheep
An ill-tempered sheep and master of nightmares from the Realm of Dreams – who is on a quest to become ruler of Skylands!

Bobbin Rood
This frighteningly accurate Nightmare Elf can shoot the middle out of a gold piece and have it rain down change… which he then puts in his own pockets.

Runys Pointyboots
A fortune teller from the Nightmare Fair with a hidden flair for evil… and shoes.

Shelshock Sheldon
Sick and tired of turtles being pushed around, Sheldon started the Secret Turtle Liberation Front… of which he is still the only member.

Baron Von Smashbeak
This armor plated bird was an absolute nightmare growing up… much to the delight of his proud parents.

Spike McPokerton
A menacing invader of dreams that should be approached with extreme caution partly because he is dangerous, but mostly because he has never taken a bath.

Birdo Chesterfield
What this bird sorcerer lacks in size he more than makes up for with his extraordinary magical abilities… not to mention his remarkable fashion sense.

Marf Gargaroots
Plagued all of his life by chronic foot odor, it's been said that when Marf invades peoples' dreams, they often wake with fright from the smell alone.

Olaf Crushersson
Olaf has always been an avid bird watcher, and while it's true that he ate many of those birds, some say that this was a sign that he wasn’t ALL bad.

Russel Purplestache
Originally a captain in the Nightmare Navy, this Nightmare Pirate left the service when he accidently cut the pants off of an admiral while trying to shake his hand.

Boris Blisterbottom
This Nightmare Chompy leaves a trail of fire wherever he goes… which excludes him from participating in his favorite pastime – snowball fights.

Grunkin Gobsprout
While this Nightmare Troll may not be physically imposing, his skill as a marksman is legendary – as is his appetite for waffles.

Bucktooth the Tiny
During his downtime from being a Nightmare Villain, Bucktooth is actually the lead singer for well-known band Purple Nightmare Funk Parade.

Big Bertha Bubblethorn
Not much is known about this Nightmare Chompy, especially since most everyone who comes in contact with her is mysteriously eaten.

The names are all sort of 'generic'. Can't they use puns or something like that?
And why are almost all the villains' description has the word 'nightmare' in it?

They came from the Realm of Dreams, and they are nightmare creatures.

Aura just got done watching 3ds gameplay you can play as the villans

This 3ds game sounds pretty good. Too bad I don't have one.

They're only playable in Boot Camp challenges.

That's true!

Baron Von Smashbeak and Shelshock Sheldon.

The designs look kinda cool but these names are just so tacky :I I think Beenox wanted names closer to real ones than console but sticking 4 nouns together definately wasn't the way to go.

okay i see... i guess there is no pictures of them yet?

No, not until the game release.

Edit: Wait, there's a few just posted, some of them basically dark colored versions of the villains in Trap Team and enemies from SSA and Giants -

I can't wait to see gameplay of the dream sheep.

Though the villains being nightmare creatures, already reminds me of Sonic Unleashed with all the nightmare like creatures you have to beat up at night. I can imagine them being dark colored with bright color markings now. Though it's interesting how a Sheep is head honcho of this game, he's super Toasty.

Wonder if the Sleep Dragon will be trappable too.

I really think that Activision wants to stop producing Skylanders games for the 3DS. It seems like they said, "Make it tacky and lame as possible" to Beenox.

Gosh I hope so. We STILL have no trappable Dragons. If Vathek isn't trappable I would want this dude to be playable.

He/she'll probably be more of a side character that don't do much than an actual villain with abilities.
