it'd be pretty cool.

Spitfire- Body
Stormblade- blades in hands
Dive Clops- eye
Fiesta- eyes
Nightfall- hair
Smash Hit- crystals on ball
High Volt- shield
Splat- horns
Astroblast- head
Thrillipede- grenades

I totally concur. But sadly, I doubt there will be anymore LightCore-based figures.

Trap Masters would have been the ideal time to use lightcore technology, honestly. It really ticked me off that they wasted it on the Sunscraper Spire and Midnight Museum playsets but not on the actual Trap Masters.

I would have put it on the Vehicles rather than the Superchargers.

both would of been cool but im sure that wold of drived the price of them up as well.

Absolutely agree with both.
Traps Masters were worth 13€/$ at best and would have definitely been worth their price with some kind of dynamic Lightcore technology.

Some vehicles with no moving parts, such as Sun Runner, Splatter Splasher, Sea Shadow or Sky Slicer could have used them as well.

The higher price was probably due to the lower number of figures but seriously, no SuperCharger figure is worth its price, not even the Racing Action Packs.
Not to mention they even took away cards...

I keep forgetting that the Giants light up when put on portal. For some reason I thought only lightcores could light up due to their name. Personally, most of the characters were not that impressive when lit. LC Chill for example just has her light at the base and I cannot tell what it's supposed to light up, the ground or the weapon.

Sadly, I must agree.

They definitely should've on the Trap Masters with all the clear weapons there were. And I didn't know those pieces lit up.

Why not both?

When they announced lightcores, I thought they were going to make almost every skylander lightcore. They missed great opportunities like the trap masters, the minis (I think it would've been awesome), vehicles, and superchargers (what this topic is about). Also, I would've liked the swappers but I don't think it's possible. Also, I had a great idea when SWAP Force was announced. I would have liked the forgotten 8 as lightcores. Well, it obviously didn't happen.

Don't you mean forgotten 7? There never was a fire element Skylander like that. Nope. None whatsoever. I wonder what a fire element dragon would look like?

Forgotten 8? Fire dragon? You too know too much. Let's call Gill Grunt to do a brainwash.

S6 "Brain Washer" Gill Grunt confirmed.
Lightcore, of course.

Ahh, another "what could've been" thread.

I can think of what he says in-game...

Vehicles? You don't need that now. Stay with the new gimmick!

Past Skylanders? Nah. Play with the new ones!

8 bucks? That's too cheap. Pay 15 bucks!

All-new Skylanders? Who said that? What you really need is REPOSES!

Don't give Activision ideas...they profited off Lightcore for years despite it probably costing them 5-10 cents for their factory in China to incorporate that fancy lighting up feature. If it means profit, they'll jump on it since they failed so miserably raising the MSRP of the cheapest figure with Superchargers.

Except, Lightcores were worth the extra $2. Superchargers are not for no differences.

I saw today that some Star Wars infinity characters can have light up lightsabers

The new ones will be more expensive with light up lightsabers. Which totally kind of sucks if you've...you know...already bought the characters you wanted....

I think Lightcore mechanics would've made them worth 13$. They're too expensive to just be normal toys. Vehicles would also be worth their current price at Lightcore. Here's where I would place the Lightcore.
