Upcoming Sunburn, Trigger Happy and Pop Thorn Youtooz Plushies

Youtooz teases their next set of Skylanders plushies: Sunburn, Trigger Happy and Pop Thorn.

The reveal of the Sunburn Youtooz plush has sparked excitement in the Skylanders fandom, as Sunburn was a Skylander in the Skylanders franchise who is one of the few who never received additional figures in the games after Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure.

Spyro: Season of Ice PS1 Fan Remake - November 2026 Update: Market Mesa Level

Redandblack64's Spyro: Season of Ice 3D fan remake released a new update: the level of Market Mesa. It is found in the castle Moneybags is in in the Autumn Fairy Home and can only be unlocked if the player rescues 10 frozen fairies.
 
Like the original game, Market Mesa is stationed high up in the alps and is home to green llamas who are being harassed by Rhynocs. Spyro mostly has to navigate across the cliffs by jumping and gliding. In the center of the market, he has to chase down a thief to rescue a fairy, much like in the original game. Curiously, after reaching a certain point in the main marketplace, a whirlwind is unlocked that allows Spyro to reach the highest point of Market Mesa where he can glide to anywhere in the level.
 
One critique I want to point out is that the starting point to the Market Mesa could have the spot wider so the player doesn't have their camera facing the inside of the cliff.
 


The new level also reveals a new item to find that are lore books written by a new original villain made for this fangame. Market Mesa's lore book is found at the exit portal, and a few rescued fairies also tease the name of the new villain working with Grendor: a cat mage by the name of Felis.

How would a modern day Spyro the Dragon Mobile Game work?

Many video games have side installments that are made for mobile devices. Some have full storylines that can connect to other game entries, and others are non-canon, one-shot games to keep consumers interested in a long run. Crash Bandicoot recently had a mobile game that was an endless runner called Crash Bandicoot: On the Run!. 

But what would a modern day Spyro the Dragon mobile game look like?

Spyro: Special Delivery Fan Film Review


"If 1990s Insomniac Games made a Spyro animated short film" is what I describe this Spyro fan project by Dessert Monkey.

Special Delivery is a fine example of a fan film done by passion and time. There are a few fan film projects in the Spyro community and a portion of the fanbase have been anticipating this film for a while. We were shown early sneak peeks and WIP videos of Special Delivery, before two trailers dropped that lead to its full release on Spyro's 28th anniversary on September 9, 2026.
