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 only got five worsts:
05-
Seems like whichever path you pick her other attack just stays pretty pathetic.04-
Slow and his attacks aren't that useful.03-
Can't really give a fair judgement, mainly just 'cause of the Frito-Lay name.02-
Again, can't give a fair judgement, but I just don't expect him to be that good.01-
Primary's too slippery, and his other attacks aren't useful to me.
isn't slow, his attacks are fast and his speed is good plus he has a ram attack witch you can use to make him run
Tomorrow is what I meant
At midnight again?
sorry that was meant for super swapper
Not a fan of his voice, but he's fun to play as, especially with his dragon parade attack.09-
She's quick and packs a punch... or a claw, I guess.08-
More based on his personality than anything. Easy to see why he's a fan favorite.07-
Baby tyrannosaur in a helicopter pack. 'Nuff said.(Yeah, I know that doesn't work yet.)
06-
Favorite of the giants, he's incredibly slow but incredibly strong.05-
An octopus pirate that shoots bubbles? Yes please.04-
Currently my favorite Trap Master based on gameplay. Definite day 1 get.03-
Let's just say, Ruby Path = Destruction in you're wake. Plus her soul gem.02-
Shootin' coins for days!01-
