The title says it all, I'm going to pick a giant but I'm not shure who to pick, Crusher or Hot Head?

hot head, flame throwers and can turn into a motorcycle version of himself ... there's no real contest

Hot Head is better, but Crusher is more rare.
Really you can't go wrong with either.

Crusher imo.

hot head, for the figure AND the gameplay.

Never played Hot Head but Crusher is terrible! His hammer is clunky and slow to strike, his boulder form is low damaging, he's short ranged, and his turn to stone attack doesn't work on bosses or in PvP. He's an overall very annoying character and is the worst Giant I've played so far, also the worst Earth.

When I do play Hot Head, I already know that Crusher is still gonna be the worst one.

Based on the fact that Hot Head can't sit on the shelf, and from my son's comments it sounds like Hot Head is the clear winner here.

I will choose Hot Head.

Hot Head is a lot more fun to play. I wouldn't call Crusher "terrible" but LightSpyro aboe pretty much spelled out everything wrong with him, and even forget "the hammer is hard to aim and can't hit things in close" Hot Head is slow and requires a little more finesse to play (i.e. he isn't really a spammable character) and lacks good range but damn is he fun to play.

They both have their faults. However, I had more fun with Hot Head. I think Crusher takes a little more skill to use in my opinion.

hot head! hot head! !!!!!

honestly, i thought crusher was bad, then i fulling upgraded his rumbling rock path (the non hammer path) and he is ridiculous, so fast, hits hard, crazy HP high armor - hes my new favorite giant. (i agree though that his hammer ability is clunky when it comes to targeting, which is why i didnt spec down that path)

His Armor upgrade is pretty cool. Also, One Name... Kevin Sboro. Crusher wins!

HOT HEAD!!!! He's way more fun overall. Crusher is cool too. They are my favorite two giants (Thumpback and Eye-brawl might not have quite grown on me yet as far as top 2 favorites anyway) ...But prefer Hot Head between the two.

Hot Head is fun on Burninator. I suggest him. No contest.

I have both, haven't played a lot of either since getting them the other week, but I played a lot of Crusher over Christmas when I got him for my nephews. Really does seem like Hot Head is easier to recommend. His two starting attacks, one shoots oil, the other is a flamethrower which LIGHTS the oil. Seems pretty cool. And I can't wait until he gets his motorcycle upgrade, it seems cool!

For comparison, Crusher as a whole is slower than average, even among Giants. His hammer swings slow and heavy (meaning it hits hard, but it's still slow). I did have great success with his turn-to-rocks upgrade, I just kept moving and rolling back and forth through enemies, took them out pretty smoothly and consistently. It also feels like he gets around faster in that form. Still he clumps around slowly and swings his hammer slowly. I also find he blocks the screen more than at least most of the other Giants. I was also a little disturbed that one of his upgrades puts his father's FACE on his hammer! Yikes! LOL!

All in all, Hot Head seems less restrictive and disappointing to most people. Making a choice, I'd go with Hot Head (I don't choose, I have all the Giants except for Ninjini of course, LOL!).

Crusher is beast if fully upgraded...but prefer thumpback..

I'd recommend Hot head, Crusher has a lot of aiming problems that frustrate the hell out of me.

Hot Head. Crusher has too many frames for his hammer, and Hot Head is a Transformer. How can you not choose him?

Totally Hot-head. I've got nothing against Crusher (except for the fact I personally struggle with his combos. I chose the hammer path, sue me!), but overall Hot-head is more user friendly, and the Flamethrower makes Sunburn's attacks look like a disposable lighter in comparison (also nothing against Sunburn, really like him, but man, is he tricky).

if you like the lightcore effects

Hot head

Hot Head is pretty good when he's fully upgraded, I'd say Hot Head if you had to choose.

hot head is so cool!

Hot Head!....

Hmmm, if you want a strong powerfull character you should go for Crusher, but if you want someone with fun attacks then go for Hot Head.

I have both, and so far my son and I like hot head better.

Granite Crusher is ok, ONLY with Rockslide path, which makes him kind of like a Giant Wrecking Ball. Otherwise, Hot Head is beast, the only skylander with ahigher critical hit is Scarlet (normal ninjini is equal).

Hot Head. Oil monsters. That is all.
