Here is what I have so far.
Character figs:

Vehicles:

I have yet to build the vehicles from the level packs which would make an addition eight. That's not counting the Cyberman and Dr. Emmit Brown Fun Pack that are coming through the mail.

Looking sexy, bro. Do the vehicles detect if you don't assemble them? Or if you make them into other things?

You don't have to physically assemble the vehicles to work, but you have to "register" their round blue bases (tags) to correspond to a vehicle. To expound, physical instructions for vehicles do NOT come in the box. They are only accessable in game when you control the corresponding character in the game by placng it on the pad. Example: placing Wonder Woman on the pad will make Wonder Woman show up as a playable character. And taking control of Wonder Woman for the first time will bring up the option of building her invisible jet. You don't have to physically assemble the jet at that time. But when you do by the end of the on-screen instructions, it will prompt you to save the data on to the tag. If you don't, the tag will be read as a blank. Upgrading your vehicle will cost you in-game "LEGO money," and it will change the apperance of the vehicle with instructions for you to match its on-screen apperance. But you are not required to if you don't feel bothered. The system is never going to really know that's built on the tags . What really matters when playing the game is the data written on them.

Ah so you could go through the instructions to build the batmobile say... but just build a huge lego phallus on the base and tell the game to save it as the Batmobile? Could make for a bit of good dark childish fun while Hoping into your "Batmobile" figure :D
I guess it would have been too difficult to add nfc chips to each piece of the lego which came with those sets and then for the portal to try to figure out the way they are assembled, Skylanders most complex figures are just 2 pieces with their own NFC chips, those work perfectly but like I said, limited in the ability to change them around so the game hasn't too much to figure out what is on the platform.
Awesome looking collection btw, the Unikitty figure looks awesome.
