In February, skylanders fans were asked to select one of three potential heroes they wanted to see come to life in the next Skylanders video game. Once their Skylanders selection was made, contestants then submitted a suggested name and a qualified panel of judges selected the three finalists, from nearly 20,000 fan submissions. The winning hero will appear on Skylanders packaging and in the upcoming video game, Skylanders Trap Team, excepted for release in North America on October 5,2014.
The three Skylanders Trap Team™ hero finalist names and their fan-submitted inspirations
- “Bat Spin” submitted by Kimberly Josey from Charlotte, N.C., is a witch tasked with saving the underworld from trolls to prove worthy of joining the Skylanders heroes.
- “Flip Wreck” submitted by Noel Foster from Clearwater, Fla., is imagined as half-dolphin and half-shipwreck, unlike any Skylanders the world has ever seen.
- “High Five” submitted by Phylicia Nakamoto from Elk Grove, Calif., is the fifth son saving the underworld from trolls to prove worthy of joining the Skylanders heroes. Famous for his great speed, this hero can fly higher and faster than any other dragonfly in Skylanders.
Now through June 13, 2014, fans 13 years and older can vote for their favorite of the three finalist names, and the winning character will come to life in Skylanders Trap Team Video Game; Winner Receives $100,000 Scholarship. To celebrate the promotion, fans will receive $10-off coupons for Skylanders SWAP Force Starter Packs in specially marked packs of Frito-Lay Classic Mix and Flavor Mix 20-count variety packs.
