I'm not sure if it was Skylanders or Nintendo that came up with the toys to life idea first, but yeah; it is arguably the most clever way of packaging DLC/microtransactions, at least the way it works in Disney Infinity seeing as how that's the only series I've experienced.
$15 for DLC generally won't happen more than once or twice on a game that I'm really enjoying, but when that same DLC is a nicely sculpted figurine with an NFC chip in it, it's easy to keep picking up ones that you like.

Skylanders Spyros Adventure launched in 2011, the first Amiibo was out in 2014, also Activision announced a good while ago that the franchise had passed $2billion in revenue for them. Great success financially for um.
I agree btw, I very rarely would buy dlc, but yeah... have over 100 Skylander figures on their own shelf.

Over 100? Holy shit, dude. Not judging, but you might have a problem.
