If you're a big Skylanders fan (like Jeremy) or if you have a kid who loves the series (like John's son) then you probably need a way to keep track of all those little figurines you've dropped so much coin on. Activision has the solution: an iOS app that manages your collection. The free Collection Vault app lets you register each figure and compare collections with friends and family. What's more, if you use the app to create a holiday wish list of figures and send it to Activision by December 6th, you'll be entered to win your wish list of up to 25 Swap Force figures. If I were a Skylanders fan, I'd be a little peeved that the app is iOS only; what's wrong with my Android phone, Activision?
