Catalog your Toys-to-Life figures: amiibo, Skylanders, Disney Infinity, etc…
It’s live, the promised big update for your CLZ Games Web web-based software. You can now finally use the software to catalog your Toys-to-Life figures! The app comes with full support for:
- amiibo
- Skylanders
- Disney Infinity
- Lego Dimensions
- Starlink
- Rumble U
- UB Funkeys
This has been quite a project. First, our content team has worked for many months to create our own Toys-to-Life database in Core, including images of both the loose figures and the boxes. Nicely grouped into series for easy cataloging and browsing. When that Core database was close to completion, the development team started on the online search engine, the Web software and the mobile apps. And today, we can finally release the big new updates and show it to you all!
If you are into amiibo figures, or Skylanders or any other toy type, I am sure you will love this update.
Here’s what’s new:
Catalog your Toys-to-Life figures
To catalog your toys, start by opening the menu, then choose “Add Toys-to-Life”. There are two ways to add:
- by searching the list: just browse and search the full list of toys and checkbox the ones you own.
- by scanning the barcode: great for your boxed figured, just scan the barcode on the box.
Adding figures from the full list
This method lets you browse and search the full list of toys-to-life in CLZ Core:
- First, select which TtL type you want to add (amiibo, skylanders, etc…).
- Use the selector at the top left to filter the list by Sub-type (Figures, Cards, Crystals, etc…).
- Use the selector at the top right to drill down to a specific Series (e.g. Animal Crossing, or Super Smash Bros.).
- You can also search the list, e.g. by typing “bowser” as shown below.
- The list of figures is always grouped by Series.
- Tap a figure to see its details in the “Confirm” pop-up and Add to your Collection from there.
BTW: this screen doubles as a nice checklist for completionists:
- Figures you already own are clearly highlighted with a big blue checkmark.
- It always shows how many you already own vs how many exist, per Toy type and by Series
Separate collection tabs for games, hardware and toys-to-life
Next to games and gaming hardware, toys-to-life is the 3rd type of collectible you can manage with CLZ Games. So to avoid things becoming messy, we decided to separate these a bit more.
Games, Hardware and Toys-to-Life are now always separated into their own collection tabs. The tabs are clearly labelled with their own icon, so that you can easily recognize what kind of collection you are in.
