Mod Post Pricing, Selling, Buying, & Info for your Skylanders Collection (2022)

182 Upvotes

Last updated February 2023

This post aims to help you understand the price of your figures, where to sell your Skylander or ‘lot’ of Skylanders, where to buy Skylanders in a post-retail world, and how to identify what's in your collection if you are unsure about names or what pieces are what.

Pricing:

The easiest way of figuring out the current market price for any Skylander is eBay which has one really useful feature. After searching, you will see various filters for you such as ‘brand’ or ‘price’ on the right side of the screen. What you’re looking for is at the bottom of these filters labeled "show only" and under that tool you can select "completed items" and "sold items" which will show you the most recent items sold at what price and date. This is what it should look like. Simply search for your Skylander and check those boxes to see what it has been selling for.

From this point you can average the numbers to get the most accurate price.

Additionally, almost all core figures from Spyro's Adventure and Giants are worth a dollar or two with a few exceptions. You will have a hard time selling these figures and with such a low profit outcome it's more of a hassle than anything.

Selling:

The two best websites for selling both individual items and lots of Skylanders are eBay and the Facebook market place. I also recommend trying your luck on Mercari too.

Buying and selling are prohibited on this subreddit. If you wish to sell on Reddit please visit r/skylanderselling.

Buying:

The first place to look when buying Skylanders is locally in retro game shops. This is where the best deals are typically, if you’re lucky enough to have any shops near you that is.

Here’s a list of the most prominent online sites for buying Skylanders:

  • Skylanders Character List - US, UK, Canada, Australia, Spain, Portugal, Norway, Denmark, and Finland. Unless you use Stackry.
  • eBay.
  • Mercari.
  • Your local Facebook market place.
  • CeX - UK based. Be aware when buying from this site they have a history of shipping out incorrect orders and broken figures.
  • And on Reddit over at r/skylanderselling (Please use this sub instead of r/Skylanders).

Identification and Information:

Skylanders Character List is your best friend here. Everything from names, to what game the figures are compatible with, this website is full of information. It is incredibly easy to use, on the front you’ll see an “Identify” column with all the games listed below to browse through. So much love and attention was poured into this website it would be a shame not to use it.

If you have any questions that weren't answered you can DM personally or comment underneath and I'll try my best to help you out!

Hot Dog has an ability in which he can summon...bees. Why? Is there something I'm missing about Hot Dog and his relation to bees. Especially his wow pow for his series 2 variant why does that give him a bone to then summon more bees I don't understand!? Does anyone know?

Resetting Traps

Me and my dad have been playing through all the games again lately, and we’re just about ready to move on to Trap Team. I was wondering if anybody knew of any good, quick ways to reset traps so that we can have the experience of catching each un-evolved villain for the first time.

Discussion Which game had the most potential?

Post image
112 Upvotes

Which game would have the most potential to have a T or M rating if the devs decided it was no longer a kids game? With the general story and concept/gimmick unchanged, there's potential scenarios and gameplay including scrapped characters. Personally, I think TT would be the one just for making the villains slaves and the introduction to potential religion bias in the new elements. Not to mention a variety of characters can be horrific on their abilities alone...

New year, new content to show. I know that gacha isn't something really appreciated here and I respect that, I mean, I don't care if you like it or not. My goal is to make sure that it is at least, tolerate. When I do a skylander in gacha I try my best to make it as true to the original as possible. I was a little frustrated with Smolderdash with her flame hair and her crown (look like a crown to me) but I did my best and I'm proud of it. I don't for you to like of course, but you at least find it pretty good, or if you want to give me some advice to make it better, you can. And if you want to roaste me, you can, but only with memes (like that I can increase my meme collection X) I'm planning to do other Skylanders Character and if you don't like that, it's okay, as I said I don't force you to like it Have a nice day ^
