Skylanders: Shrink Squad

Ancient Woods Walkthrough

Back at the Academy

Objective: Speak to Mags

Leaving the outer docks of the Academy, you make your way to the main courtyard where Mags is waiting beside a cartoonishly large canon with the letters A.M.B painted across in bright red paint.

"Oh heya there Skylander! Whatcha think of my brand new prototype Anti-Mist Blaster! Or PAMB! for short as it currently is a prototype. With it, I've managed to take in bits of light from around the academy and channel it into the illuminator cores to blast out pure awesome light! Ahah, pretty cool ain't it?"

"Anywho, I have found a problem with the prototypes I've put around the academy. When I was putting them together I accidentally put on my brand new color blind glasses. So I mixed up where the red and green wires were supposed to go. Go figure, huh."

"Now, if I want to fix that lil ol' mishap, I'ma have to take apart the whole dad gum thing. Unless, of course, yer willin' to shrink on down all microscopic and such to enter the mainframe and fix up the wires for me. So, whadaya say? Aw, thank ya Skylander!"

Objective: Find the five A.M.B's around the academy and connect the wires correctly.

The first A.M.B. is right next to Mags in the courtyard. Go up to it as a member of the shrink squad and press the shrink button. You will immediately be put inside the A.M.B. control panel.

This first A.M.B. has only two wires that need to be fixed. Mags booming voice walks you through what to do with the wires. First you detach the wires, they will appear over your head with its cord stretching back to its starting point. You take them over to their correct places and plug them in. Ex. Red goes to red and green goes to green. Once it's correctly connected you leave the mainframe.

Once it's completed, the A.M.B. blasts out a ray inflight into the sky. "Well hot buttered toast Skylander!" Mags exclaims. "You did it! Now if you want to head out to the observation deck, we can fix up the second."

The Observation Deck leads you through the academy where you will find many of the typical places in past academies. You come out onto a large observation deck off the backside of the academy to fix the second A.M.B.

For this one, there are again just two wires you have to fix. But there is also a green pole that you have to wrap just the green wire around before plugging it in. To wrap around you just pick up the green wire and walk around the pole. Do not let the red wire touch the green pole.

After the observation deck, you're tasked to go to the one atop the academy. You take a quick elevator that takes you to the very top pillar that overlooks the entire island. For this third A.M.B. there is a third wire added to the mix, a yellow one. You must connect the yellow, red, and green wires to their correct ports while also wrapping the three of them around their separate poles.

The fourth A.M.B. takes you out to the colosseum. The colosseum is located to the left of the courtyard in front of the Academy. It's a large white arena where Skylanders can do heroic challenges, PvP, racing, new Battle Brawl Island, and even replay boss battles they have beaten. All legendary treasures are also used to decorate it in one way or another.

In the center of the arena is the A.M.B. For this fourth one, you have to connect the green wire around three separate poles before plugging it in. The same goes for the red wire. There is no yellow wire for this one.

Upon completion, there is just be fifth A.M.B. left. It is located by Persephone's tree on the other side of the courtyard. This final A.M.B. is the largest mainframe of them all. There are three wires, red, green, and yellow that you have to plug in. But throughout this large area there are four poles of each color that need the wire to be wrapped around it.
