you will need to use the chip from a lightcore to connect the led's to


so i need to buy a lightcore? that stinks. so, lemme get this straight:
1. I open up L ignitors head
2. I thread wires to a lightcore chip?
3. I insert the lightbulb
4. its good to go? hmmmm, i need a little guide to help me. have you seen one SPECIFICALLY for making lightcore skylanders?


well, basically that's it. you will also need to remove the original lightcore rfid wafer (the silver part on ther chip) and replace it with the normal flameslinger one



you mean ignitor? so, i get the wafer chip, and put it on my L ignitor's chip. got it. easypeasynotreally.

#304 Posted: 21:08:56 12/12/2012
there are 2 parts, the wafer (that contains the character data) and the plastic chip that the led wires are connected to

you can only have 1 data wafer in a base so you will need to take off the lightcore wafer ... once you open up the base you will have more of an idea what is inside.

this is the first lightcore drobot wafer and chip that i cut out of a base ...

It is too blurry, cuz my ipod is the only vamera i have, and you cant see the glitter shine. Looks better in person. Should probably be named the "snow variants"

Srry. I really need a good camera. It has glitter and sparkles in person. Im calling them snow variants, because the color was too white to be a sparkle/glitter. Im also working on a lightning rod santa clause with a white beard. And a samta hat. Dont forget that.

So...I had an extra Tree Rex to paint. Decided I wanted to do a Persian Blue/Bronze/Green/Copper colored version. I'm fairly satisfied with the result. Enjoy!

That's a pretty cool Tree Rex! When I get my extra one, I'll have to think of something fun with it.

I noticed the giants are a lot more paint resistant than the standard Skylanders. It took a lot of priming just to get my dang Swarm covered in the brown base. Oy.

^ Xero, you have some amazing customs!! I LOVE this tree rex!! Your dark Cynder and your Gill Grunt are also some of my favs!! That Gill Grunt is really awesome!

I am wondering... Do you guys who paint customs use acrylic paints?? And do you use some kind of sealer over the top? I'm looking at painting an extra Spyro and Drobot I have, and I'm wondering what kind of paint/sealer I should use?? smilie Thanks a bunch in advance!!!

Thank you for the kind words guys. And I use Craftsmart Acrylics for the metallics and cheap tube acrylics for the flat colors. I actually use a Krylon matte finish clear spray to seal them out when I am finished painting with seems to add some durability and scratch resistance to the paints. At least nobody that has a custom of mine has mentioned it being a problem...though I don't expect people to play with customs in the first place. Most of the bottle acrylics work really well. Some people will swear by brands like Testors and so on. But I have found unless you are scratching your nails hard into the paint...it stays on really well. I do put multiple coats on and blacks I tend to water down...metallics I put on straight unless I want really good translucency. Hope this helps.


And can't wait to see your customs smilie

Aww, that's not super nice. D=

I've seen people do modifications where they put heads in the hands of other Skylanders. Though, Hothead might not seem brutal enough to put a head in. Maybe someone else?
xerokills Yellow Sparx Gems: 1181
#331 Posted: 15:41:12 17/12/2012
I have seen those ones on ebay where someone cut the heads off others and glued them in the hands of another Skylander. And it does indeed look silly. And not silly in a good way. I guess it's a to each their own sort of thing. But I certainly wouldn't do it to my figures.

Gonna start work on my extra Jet Vac and my extra Cynders.
