Skylanders Giants




Kaos is back!

Thousands of years ago, the Skylanders Giants fought epic battles in Skylands but were banished to Earth. With a new threat looming, it’s time to bring them back to join forces with the Skylanders. Only you can put them on the Portal of Power® to unleash their strength in the ultimate battle to save Skylands.


A brand new sequel to the ground-breaking Skylanders Spyro's Adventure, Skylanders Giants continues with the same unique action figures, with one small change. They're giant!


Skylanders are special action figures that come to life! Just take a Skylander, place it on the Portal of Power and BOOM! the Skylander will come to life in the video game. There are now many more Skylanders to collect, from regular Skylanders to Giants - each with unique abilities and powers.

The Hub will be hosting a massive launch party on Friday 19th October.  We'll be demonstrating the game and have a whole host of competitions and activities.  Just drop by any time between 9.30am and 5.30pm to join in the fun.  

We've also developed a handy wee guide to the new Skylanders Giants range below.  If you have any questions or want to place an pre-order/order for any of the range you can get in touch with us via our website at www.thehubdirect.co.uk
