Pop Fizz Army, represent Ever since I first played him, Pop Fizz has been my favorite Magic-Type Skylander, and one of my favorites in general. And this new Pop Fizz is worth getting even if you have the Giants version. Because Super Gulp Pop Fizz comes with a NEW upgrade attack, which turns one of his “living” purple potions that he throws into a giant Potion that can cause some serious havoc against enemies.Pop Fizz isn’t one of the easiest Skylanders to be good with, because he is mostly a melee character, with his berserker attacks. But he is also something of a ranged character, by throwing his potions. The problem is, unlike most ranged characters, who shoot laser beams or fireballs or what have you, Pop Fizz throws his potions, which throw at an arc, and don’t cover nearly as much distance as other ranged attacks. So he’s not a Skylander that would be considered “overpowered”. He’s also a character you must be strategic with, because when Pop Fizz drinks his potion, it takes about 2 seconds for him to complete his Berserk transformation, but during those 2 seconds, he is completely defenseless against enemy attacks. So he can be a challenge to play as. But he’s fun as well. He has a charming design, he’s cute, and he is perfectly voiced by comedian Bobcat Goldthwait.If you’re a fan of the games, or if you’re a parent looking to get some Skylanders for your kid, I highly recommend him.

ZANNY ZOO LOU!! SEND IN THE SPIRIT BIRDS AND WOLVES!! NOTE TO AMAZON: PLEASE PLACE THESE REVIEWS UNDER THEIR APPROPRIATE CHARACTERS!THIS REVIEW IS FOR THE SWAP FORCE FIGURE ZOO LOU!!!This fuzzy white creature with green eyes is no “Lucy”. My son thought he was a girl. He’s a fuzzy white bear(maybe?) with a ponytail who comes from a long line of Shamens. He speaks with an accent and waddles and fights in a stocky way. He shouts “Nature Always Wins.” He has a magical club in hand that sends in magical Spirit Birds for long range attacks and sends in a magical Spirit Wolf for close range attacks. He can use his club to inflict damage on his close range opponents too. One of the quicker upgrades is the ability to ride a huge wild bucking boar for an attack(very funny). His strengths are long range attacks with the Birds and short range with the wolves or riding the wild Boar. When you get to the choose your path level of upgrades you get to choose either the “Bucking Boar Path” or “The Wild Wolf Path.” Once you reach the “Hunter and Gatherer” upgrade of the wolf pack the wolf has the ability to dig up food when his health is low. This path appears to be the better choice of the two. His Soul Gem ability is called “Birds of Prey” and it sends up to five birds in to attack the enemies. I have all the Skylanders that have been released at launch and he is one of my early favorites of the traditional style characters along with Pop Thorn and Countdown. I really like Magna Charge as far as Swap-able figures in the early stages of playing.The cards that come with the figures have Stats on them that ONLY apply to online games. These Stats are what you need to evaluate character strengths and weaknesses. The only ones that change throughout the game are Max Health, it increases as you level up and Elemental Power increases when you have more figures within that Element. Any other increases would be due to bonus powers from a hat that you purchase within the game etc.In Game Stats:Max Health:290Speed:43Armor:18Critical Hit:6Elemental Power:25ZOO LOU IS AVAILABLE AS A LEGENDARY FIGURE TOO!SERIES 1:ZOU LOU IS A SERIES 1 AND ISN’T SWAP-ABLE….BEING A SERIES 1 ALSO MEANS THAT ONCE YOU CHOOSE THEIR PATH YOU ARE STUCK WITH THAT PATH OF POWERS UNLESS YOU RESET THE FIGURE AND START OVER AGAIN OR BUY A SECOND ONE AND CHOOSE THE OTHER PATH FOR THAT ONE… SERIES 2 AND 3 (MEANS THEY ARE IN THEIR 2ND OR 3RD REPOSE)FIGURES CAN BUY BOTH PATHS OF POWERS AND CHANGE AT THE FLOWER POD IN THE YARD(NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF A BATTLE FOR INSTANCE).
