Skylanders Gaints Information
First thing, all the figures from the first game are playable in Skylanders Giants. Secondly, if the character existed in the first game, a new figure for that character will work in both games. The following new Skylanders figures for existing characters will work in both games: •	32 Reposed Re-released Skylanders: These figures not only offer a reposed version of the original Skylanders, but they can also take advantage of the higher leveling up in the new game.

•	4 Reposed Re-released Light Force Skylanders: These new figures light up when they are on the portal and are powered by the peripheral with no need for batteries in the toy itself.

Thirdly, new characters that didn’t exist in the first game will only work in Giants. That means that the following new Skylanders likely to be released in Giants will only work in the new game:

•	8 Giant Skylanders: These giant figures are about twice the size of the original Skylanders and light up when they are on the portal and are powered by the peripheral with no need for batteries in the toy itself. They offer different stats and abilities in the game. Throwing in game objects, bashing through walls and completing feats of strength also distinguish them from normal Skylanders.

•	4 New Light Force Skylanders: These new figures light up when they are on the portal and are powered by the peripheral with no need for batteries in the toy itself. These four are new characters for Skylanders Giants.

•	8 New Skylanders: These new figures add one new character to each of the eight elements for the new Skylanders Giants game.

Re-Released of Original Skylanders Information
The original figures take advantage of the higher level cap in Skylanders Giants. You can use your existing characters in the new game and it will only be the re-released figures that will be able to benefit from the higher levels than level 10. The original figures aren’t able to level up further. This makes sense of the re-release of all the original figures for Skylanders Giants — rather than just the new ones.

Skylanders Figures and Portal Information
In Skylanders Giants you can still use the same portal as the original game. Two giants, a giant and a normal, or even two normal Skylanders can team up to play the new game. The new giant figures have been designed so that two giants can fit on the portal together, and one giant fits on the 3DS portal.
