Story
The story and background for the new types of toys is as detailed below:
In Skylanders Trap Team, Kaos continues his ongoing quest to rule over Skylands. He has discovered the location of the legendary Cloudcracker Prison -- a fortress built entirely out of the magical substance Traptanium and home to Skylands' most nefarious baddies. In an attempt to build his own army of foes, Kaos blows up the prison, releasing the most wanted villains and blasting shards of Traptanium to Earth in the form of Traps. Now it's up to Portal Masters to recapture all of the escaped villains using powerful Traptanium Traps and defeat Kaos before it's too late!
Characters
All pre-existing figures work with Trap Team but of course there is a whole slew of new toys to collect. First to note are the 18 new Trap Masters, Trap Masters are a larger Skylander toy that wields a translucent "Traptanium" weapon and has an advantage when fighting the capturable villains. There are also 18 new core Skylanders who will join the fight, new mini versions of old characters as well as several reposed fan-favourites from previous adventures.
Here are pictures of all of the so far revealed brand new Skylanders:

To help differentiate between the old and new sets, the base of the Skylanders for Skylanders Trap Team is coloured red instead of the green/orange/blue currently seen on the Spyro's Adventure, Giants and SWAP Force toys.
Traps
Another new toy added with Trap Team is the Trap. These translucent crystals are made of Traptanium and are essential for capturing the various villains. Each Trap is a specific element and allows you to capture villains that match that element.

Comments
I DO love the game, i'm just saying they should probably lower prices because it's getting ridiculous. 12-19 bucks for a skylander? At most make it 10-14 dollars.
also The new portal is cool, but it's a pain because i had to trade in my really old portal for the now old one and my dad doesn't want the house full of portals or skylanders. I still want EVERY one but PRICING PEOPLE!
I WANT THE UNKNOWN AIR CORE SKYLANDER!

On topic; I think Funny Bone will be the most fun to play as.
And on topic: I think high five and chopper and wallop look like the best to use
@yelvy You do kind of have to by all the pokemon. I use to get the pokemon cards.
(At least with Pokemon though you don't have to buy every Pokemon!)
Like no one ever was
To Trap them is my real test
To train them is my cause
I would travel across Skylands
Searching far and wide
Traptanium to understand
The power that's inside
Skylanders! Gotta Trap 'em all!
It's you and me
I know it's my destiny
Skylanders
Oh, you're my best friend
In Skylands we must defend
Skylanders
Gotta Trap 'em all
A heart so true
Our courage that pulled us through
You teach me and I'll teach you
Skylanders
Gotta Trap 'em all
Gotta Trap 'em all
Skylanders!
