You're not Hardcore if you have not played a Toys-to-Life Game.

These games knickle and dime the poor kids and their parents. It's so cynical to combine a video game with expensive figurines that becomes worthless in a couple of years when the kids has grown tired of them.

We should not speak highly of this category of games.

That's why the amiibo, Disney and Lego ones are better than Skylanders because the characters are well known and more collectible. 

Skylanders invent new characters every year and then toss them aside when next year's game comes out.
