All your LightCore figures still work in newer games, but it does not look like we will be seeing another round of LightCore figures any time soon. The last LightCore Skylanders came with SWAP Force in 2013. The LightCore Skylanders were a novel idea, but with a price tag $2-3 higher than their standard counterparts a lot of fans did not buy into it. Anyone who got into Skylanders after Spyro's Adventure had a hard time finding most of the Forgetten 8, so this was the perfect opportunity to add them to their collection. These two characters were part of the Forgotten 8 (the eight characters from Spyro's Adventure that did not receive a Series 2 figure for Giants). There wasn't a lot of excitement surrounding the new LightCore figures with the exception of Warnado and Wham-Shell. These figures function in the exact same way as the original LightCore Skylanders. In SWAP Force there are also 8 LightCore figures. In Skylanders SWAP Force, the LightCore Skylanders made a second appearance. This is particularly useful during large battles with large waves of enemies. When you place a LightCore Skylander on the Portal it will immediately perform an attack that defeats every enemy on the screen. In addition to looking cool, the LightCore Skylanders have another special ability. I like to think it's magic! Advantages of LightCore Skylanders All I know is that the figures light up and there are no batteries involved. I'm not really sure about the technical side of it. When you place the figure on the Portal, the LEDs in the figure will light up. The LightCore Skylanders have a few LED bulbs in them. In any case, you'll want to put them on the Portal sooner or later because that's when the real magic happens. So just looking at them (outside of the packaging) it could be difficult to tell which is which until you put them on the Portal. There were 8 LightCore figures (one for each element).Įach of the LightCore figures are a reposed version of a Series 1 or Series 2 Skylander in Giants. The LightCore Skylanders were first introduced in Skylanders Giants.
