Yesterday I was on a family adventure and I saw my Instagram feed blowing up with the photo above. That is Gearshift a new character for the Skylanders Franchise. She is the first female Trapmaster announced for the Skylanders Trap Team game that is to be released October 5, 2014. Gearshift is the first individual character that fans can pre-order of the game. I rushed off to Amazon.com today and pre-ordered Skylanders Trap Team Gearshift Character (Affiliate Link) for myself.
Back when Skylanders Swap Force came out there was a promotion with Toys R Us. If you spent $100 on Skylanders merchandise with your Toys R Us membership rewards number you’d get this figure free.
Gill Grunt is one of my favorite characters. Ever since the first series Gill was the character that I enjoyed most. He’s entertaining and has some cool weapons. I especially like his giant anchor attack and his ability to travel around on a jet of water spraying from his backpack.
It is too bad that he doesn’t look that way in the game.
