More than 100 million Skylanders toys have been sold

Last May about 30 million Skylanders toys had already been purchased by kids, parents, and gamers alike. That numbers seemed absurd then, but now– just nine months later– it has more than tripled, topping the 100 million mark this past quarter with help from the release of Skylanders: Giants.

If you’re interested in how much money Activision is making from this franchise alone? Over $500 million in revenue has been generated by the series, with 40% of that coming from the fresh-off-the-presses Giants.
