Small background, I recently got into customizing some of my old 'Landers, and its made me look at paint jobs and the such more, because of this, when I go to Gamestop (specifically on Friday), I looked at the Eon's Elite, despite me deciding when Terrafin was picked instead of Prism Break - that I wasn't going to get any. Then throw in my son watching SkylanderDad videos, and me catching the tail-end of one of the hunting episodes where he puts together/builds (well starrts) a stand for Elites - it made me think about elites even more.

See I actually DO like the idea, I just don't like the figures they chose or the characters. so it made me wonder who "I" would have as my 'Unreallystic's Elite' - maybe I'll do my own display, and make my own custom paints to go with my list eventually (it's a stress reliever to me, like watching my dad put together model air planes when I was a kid).

So my elites (not in order)
Earth - S2 Prism Break - Max out Speed
Air - S2 Lightning Rod - Max out Damage
Tech - LC Drobot - Max out Luck
Magic - S2 Double Trouble - Max out Defense
Fire - A) S1 Smolderdash - Max out Speed S2 Flameslinger - Max out Defense
Water - A) Whamshell - Max out Speed Thumpback - Max out speed
Undead - S2 Hex - Max out Damage
Life - S1 Bumbleblast - Max out Luck

So who would be your elites?

Finally someone who has a good opinion on skylanders.
However I would choose:

Life: I would just keep
Air: S1 max out speed
Undead: S1 max out damage
Magic: S1 max out luck
Tech: S1 max out luck
Water: S1 max out speed
Fire: S1 max out damage
Earth: S1 max out defense

The Giants max everything.

That actually seems like a good idea. For my Elite army, I would pick...

for Magic with maxed out Luck
for Tech with maxed out Speed (And you thought he was OP before?)
for Life with maxed out Damage
for Water with maxed out Defense
for Fire with maxed out Luck
for Earth with maxed out Damage
for Air with maxed out Defense
for Undead with maxed out Speed

The Giants max everything.

The Giants already have high defense (via def and health), so I wouldn't worry about maxing that, damage they are only outclassed by the newer stuff, I just want to see them terrorize a level with max speed. I tried to max my Crusher's speed via heroics, but he crashed when I was almost done (haven't gotten the energy back to even bother fixing him, let alone redoing the heroics).

I don't think anything could save Ninjini though...

I like your's guys choices, but i would change a few for my Elites team:

Life: S2 - Max out Damage
Air: S1 - Max out Luck
Undead: S2 - Max out Damage
Magic: S2 - Max out Damage
Tech: since im a fan i would keep him just make him the S2 version,cause i want him to have the cannon wowpow - Max out Luck
Water: S1 - Max out Defence
Fire: S1 - Max out Damage
Earth: S3 - Max out Damage ...S3 because i love the red crystals...they just look So COOL.

Lightning Rod is already a quasi-Elite, he's got the metallic paint job.

Plus his shielding storm clouds are bad-a**!!!

I kinda wanted a Prism Break as well, but I also really like Terrafin. I've bought one EE (and it will remain that way unless the price drops significantly on clearance) and that one is Terrafin. I love that they actually changed his color to blue instead of just making him shiny. And he is a land shark that hums the Jaws theme while burrowing, so how can anyone not like that?

For my ideas about having new Elites are as followed:

Magic - Star Strike (Max Out Luck)
Tech - Chopper (Max Out Strength)
Earth - Flashwing (Max Out Defense)
Air - Sonic Boom (Max Out Defense)
Fire - Sunburn (Max Out Agility)
Water - Slam Bam (Max Out Strength)
Life - High Five (Max Out Agility)
Undead - Cynder (Max Out Agility)

Easy.

Prism Break...

Terrafin is honestly my 'third fav' earth at this point behind Prism Break & Fist Bump (who I thought I'd hate at first). They'[ve both had the same number of reposes, but Prism Break got two chase variants that TF never got (flocked and employee). But just imagine the gems with say a gold tint to match his laser path), and high quality metallic flakes thrown in to make him sparkly. I understand Terrafin, but man it should have been Prism Break, that one is a very valid argument (unlike Drobot v Trigger Happy, where I like DB WWWWAAAAYYYY more, but its obvious who is being pushed).

Terrafin was an okay choice but if you actually play the Eon Elite on Trap Team, they ruined his shark splash, its not as good as it was before as it can be blocked by almost anything.

I would like to choose characters that also do not have a buttload of existing variants.

My elite army:
Magic: Star Strike
Earth: Prism Break (with a speed boost, but not max). Max defense though.
Water: Zap
Fire: Smolderdash
Tech: Spy Rise (my one swap)
Undead: Bat Spin
Air: Swarm (my one giant)
Life: Bumble Blast

and a trap master Knight Mare would be nice
throw in spotlight while you are at it

And I would want their price lowered, $25 is a bit much, but either way, these are who I would like if money was no object.

AIR: Jet Vac
EARTH: Bash
FIRE: Hot Dog
LIFE: Camo
MAGIC: Pop Fizz
TECH: Drobot
UNDEAD: Funny Bone
WATER: Rip Tide

Magic max defense and higher attack and speed.
Undead max attack and defense with higher speed.
Tech max speed and higher defense.
Life max attack and defense with higher speed.
Water max luck and attack with higher speed and defense.
Fire max attack and higher defense.
Earth max attack and defense with higher speed.
Air max defense and speed with higher attack.

Not gonna make a list but I agree on Elite S1 Smolderdash with Max Speed I would like her to have a very bright reflective yellow paint (not gold), that would be nice.

In keeping with the original concept as I see it, the Elites should come from SSA. Here goes.
Air: Sonic Boom
Earth: Prism Break
Fire: Eruptor (he was a parade balloon after all)
Life: Zook
Magic: Double Trouble
Tech: Trigger Happy
Undead: Cynder
Water: Gill Grunt

Honestly, I am not necessarily a fan of all on this list. Just thinking about which characters are most worthy, again as I see it. Feast away on my thoughts.

how would you max their in-game stats? I'm new to this btw...

You can't max there stats they are preset...can only boost them a bit with hats. These are just members wish lists of there Elites or second set of Elites.

Earth: Wallop
Fire: Ignitor
Air: Thunderbolt(?)
Water: Freeze Blade
Life: Bushwhack
Undead: Night Shift
Tech: Magna Charge
Magic: Trap Shadow
Light: Knight Light
Dark: Blackout(?)
Villain: Wolfgang

DragonShine's Elite!
Air: Polar Whirlwind
Life: Thorn Camo
Fire: Sunburn
Water: Echo
Undead: Cynder
Tech: Drobot
Magic: Mega ram Spyro
Earth: Jade Flashwing
Light: Spotlight
Dark: Blackout

I can't get over this post, like I went home and looked at it and you are 100% spot on about him already having the look. The clouds and hair need better paint, but he truly has the finish already.

But then I'm stuck between Scratch & Whirlwind who's been done to death, and frankly while super strong, doesn't interest me as much as say Scratch. so it's legacy and strength verse fun and strength, so legacy vs fun?

I've already decided to go ahead and do my own elites one of these days (soon).

Nice idea

I'd go with these for my Elites:

Air - Warnado (I love him even though he gets overlooked)
Life: High Five (I find his breed combination hilarious)
Fire: Sunburn (He will rise again)
Water: Since i have to pick one i'll go with Chill (She's the best of a bad lot)
Undead: Ghost Roaster (Well someone needs to show him some love)
Tech: Boomer (Gotta love a reformed villain)
Magic: Voodood (Love his design)
Earth: Prism Break (The only other repose apart from Pop Fizz that i find alright)
Light: Spotlight (Love her)
Dark: Blackout (Why wouldn't you choose him?)
