Activision Publishing is spreading Skylanders cheer this season with the debut of a special holiday character, a balloon in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and a number of festive product offerings.

On Thanksgiving Day, Skylanders fans can look to the skies as Eruptor makes his first flight in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Portal Masters can also check out behind-the-scenes footage of Eruptor prepping for the parade on the Skylanders YouTube channel.

Then on Dec. 7, new holiday character Winterfest Lob-Star will make his debut in North America, alongside Eon’s Elite character Whirlwind, a fan-favorite that made her debut in "Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure."

In addition to the new characters, a host of other Skylanders merchandise is available for fans of all ages this holiday season. Among the offerings are:

  • FunPlay HideAway play sets from PowerA that enable fans to store and play with their favorite toys. The line now includes Dr. Krankcase’s Lair and is available at retailers nationwide.

  • Construction sets from Mega Brands that let players build and battle in their favorite levels from the Skylanders franchise. The all-new Cut Throat Carnival construction set will be available this month at Toys 'R' Us, Walmart and Amazon.

  • Micro-comic fun packs from IDW Publishing featuring three Legendary storylines and three exclusively designed Legendary Traps that can be used to capture the most notorious villains in "Skylanders Trap Team."

  • A-Z Box Set from Penguin, which includes two brand-new books–A to Z of Skylands and Pick Your Portal: The Trouble with Doubles–as well as a sheet of stickers and a build-your-own Skylander paper model.
