Hag asked me to ask if they would ever consider a game where ‘Chaos’ is the main character and all the figures are bad guys?
Guha Bala said this was a very creative idea and it had been metioned before – anything is possible with Skylanders.
Hag was pleased enough with the answer – maybe we’ll see this game sooner rather than later the speed Skylanders are being release.
Special gift for the boys: A limited edition ‘Chop Chop’ figure from the nice people of Activision
