DAY 1 AND DAY 2 OF SKYTOBER ( IM LATE TO THE PARTY BUT SLOWLY CATCHING UP! )

( Magic - Double Trouble ) ( Tech - Trigger Happy )

With double trouble I tried to put as much detail as I could and with trigger happy I basically just did my own style and twist to the character I’m probably going to do more drawings like the 2nd one since it’s more my style!

These were really fun to make and I’m having a lot of fun participating in SKYTOBER!!

Did you know? Sonic Boom and Double Trouble are the only two Skylanders whose Series 2 figure forms have little helpers by their sides.

Double Trouble

Double Trouble is a magic core from Spyro’s Adventure. Their primary attack is a magical beam from their staff, and their secondary is to summon a small double of themselves that walks up to enemies and explodes! His tertiary is to summon a shortrange area-of-effect magical bomb that centers on Double Trouble and explodes! His upgrade paths enhance his staff and bomb abilities (top), and his minions (bottom). I prefer the bottom path because the last upgrade in it causes minions to form from defeated enemies. His powers lie in his minions, so I'd definitely recommend considering his minion path. Double Trouble is a minionizer, meaning that his powers center on summoning or creating companions or minions to fight for him. I think Double Trouble is a treat, he's the classic minionizer, and learning how to play him will make learning how to play many skylanders much easier for you. Overall: 7/10. I'm glad he started in the first game, because he's definitely a beginner minionizer.

If you want to play as a similar skylander, Double Trouble plays similarly to other minionizers, like Sonic Boom (of Spyro's Adventure), and Short Cut (of Trap Team)

If you like to play co-op, Double Trouble would pair well with a more longrange character, like the dragons.

Skylanders Review: Double Trouble

So um Yeah, we've covered 1/4 of the original thirty-two Skylanders, now we gotta' talk about Double Trouble.

[Image: Double Trouble is a um, "Shaman" character. His face is actually a tiki mask, with a rectangular shape that extends his forehead to a higher position. His mask has canine-like teeth surrounded by a rectangular, carved in lips, alongside a carved unibrow. There are also five additional quadrilateral markings above his unibrow that almost resemble SpongeBob's eyelashes. You can see his lime green eyes through the mask. There are several feathers decorating the sides of the mask, alongside a grass-skirt with a leather...fanny pack maybe? Its latch is tied around a cartoonish bone, and you cannot see any legs under his skirt so that's a cool detail I guess. Anything not covered up by his "traditional" garments reveals that he has blue skin, with humanoid features. He wields a staff topped with a crystal, with metallic fixtures surrounding it, and with more feathers decorating it.]

So um, remember the Witch Doctor and Shaman monsters from the OG Scooby-Doo series? Kids franchises really loved those wooden masks!

Okay these masks are really cool, and they are a great representation of cultures - especially with how humans all have the same idea of using artificial faces to intimidate others or put on performances.

But like, this is...not good right? I can't really say the devs who designed this guy deserve a 1000 years of misfortune for not being all that culturally sensitive, but look at him.

Better yet, look at the fact that most of his in-game dialogue is just different iterations of Ooga Booga. No seriously.

I am not comfortable with this, like his species is apparently "Tiki Man"??? I feel like if you want something Tiki inspired that has no connection to the culture actually connected to that imagery, you could at least make up a new name for it? Video Games are a half-visual media, so the connection would be easy to make through design alone. Here it feels kinda lazy just to call something "Tiki [Blank]", like calling the stars and stripes a "Flag pattern" in a world where America doesn't even exist.

The Tiki stuff is just aesthetics by the way, there is no other cultural influence because it's very clear he's mostly based on African Shaman stereotypes.

His backstory is basically the same as the Zebra from My Little Pony, and his name comes from the fact that he ate a special plant that gave him the ability to create clones with his already expert magic. The first positive I can give this character is that I enjoy him getting along with his clones despite the fact that they're all tiny bombs mechanically.

It gets even weirder because one of his beta figure designs is just a normal elf-eared wizard with no Tiki elements. Perhaps it was deemed too similar to Eon, but with a few redesigns it could've worked. Even taking Chompy Wizard into account.

Motto: "Boom Shock-a-locka!" I did not like writing this review. 1/5.

One. He gets one. The Bone Chompy of Death.

Did I mention that I will not do a full creature design review of the original Scooby-Doo! Where are You roster of monsters for reasons this review makes apparent.

TIL there's a border patrol and interrogations officer - complete with riot gear - in the Skylanders roster.
