"Skylanders Giants was named to our 2012 Holiday Hot Toy List for good reason - it extended the franchise's breakthrough gameplay and its performance at retail has been incredible. We're continually impressed by the originality that Activision delivers in bringing toys to life," said Jerry Storch, Chairman and CEO, Toys"R"Us, Inc. "The innovation of allowing kids to customize their toys in the real world and then send them into the Skylanders SWAP Force game is sure to raise the bar for the franchise."
In 2011, Skylanders Spyro's Adventure originated a new play pattern that seamlessly bridged physical and virtual worlds across multiple platforms and became the top-selling kids' videogame of the year. In October of 2012, Skylanders Giants further evolved the genre and added the mega-sized Giants and LightCore characters to the collection of interaction figures that have helped the franchise achieve more than $500 million in U.S. retail sales, including accessories and figures, reaching the milestone faster than any other kids gaming property. Skylanders SWAP Force is being developed by Vicarious Visions, an Activision studio.
