Well Giants was the most popular game...this is the result of thousands of parents getting fed up with their kids' Skylander junk at home by dumping them off at GameStop which in turn makes off like bandits reselling the harder to find figures at a significant markup. I find it very petty of them and of poor form to even have a "Rare Figure" section (some of which aren't even remotely rare). I wouldn't be surprised if they went full scalper and started selling on EBay - many retail stores including TRU have storefronts set up on EBay, but sell at retail prices that usually mirror their own respective website.

Where did they have them? Out in bags or box behind counter?

My GameStop had a cardboard stand alone display with the Skylanders on pegs. They are in bags with cardboard tops.

The clerk knows I'm a collector and gave me a list of all of the used Skylanders they offer along with their price and said that I could have all the ones I need delivered to the store for free.

Still waiting for someone picking up one with an obscene name put on it...

Good for them, though. I hope it works out.

RIP GhostRoaster. He's reanimated as TakeYourLemons but occasionally is resurrected from the beyond when needed.

Dark Blast Zone is $14.99. Not too bad. I wonder what they do when the seller has stickers/cards with their figures. Most second hand stores in my area say they just throw them in the trash!

You shouldn't find one with anything on it. They all get sent back to corporate and are wiped out before being resold.

As true as that is, there no reason an employee cant miss one or decide to purposely add one. Ppl do dumb stuff.

Yeah, a kid at my local GS store brought in over 100 of them all with mint cards and unused codes.. They proceeded to throw them away, but I was able to get them before that happened! I was going to trade my pumpkin eye brawl extra also, but all they wanted to give me was 25 cents, so we kept it!
