So I collected 1 of every figure from the first game, and so far the first Bash, Slam Bam, and Double Trouble I got spazed out on the portal because the chip inside could not be read for what ever reason, and I ended up returning them.

am I just really unlucky? or dos odds say 1 out of every 20 or so will be glitchy?

are the new skylanders made any better?
I dont know what i would do if my Gnarly or Royal started acting up.

Paint jobs definitely went down in quality with the new figures, I just hope the chips didnt to.

also, I believe in Giants, the game recognizes multiples of the same figures.
so if I have to replace a skylander, the game is going to show it in the collections.
to most it wouldn't matter, but this would drive my OCD insane.

Happened only with my Voodood in the first game, and it didn't even say there was a problem with him, he just sat on the portal, and the game said: Quote:
Player 1:
Please place a Skylander on the Portal of Power.

or something like that.

You can actually wipe the chip clean.

1. Start game and place figure on portal to get error message.

2. Exit all the way back out to the main screen.

3. Hit start and go to options and general.

4. After you hit general their should be an option to reset the skylander. Do that three or four times and it should reset it,

My Voodood doesn't give me an error message. It just sits on the Portal, and NOTHING happens.

Contact Activision. Voodood is most likely missing an RFID chip.

^ I already did, they sent me a replacement, and it worked when I first put it on, if I fix it though, I'll have 2 smilie's! That's what I'm interested in.
