The case of the missing mini's [CLOSED]

What's going on with the air and life skylander mini packs? They've been mia in Canada for months.

They where supposed to be part of wave 4 which was released between February and March 2015 in the states. Canada sometimes gets waves a couple of weeks later then the States does but never has a figure been missing from store shelf's this long.

We got the rest of wave 4 and 5 just fine so the fact you can't get these from anyone is a real issue. Not Toys r us, Best buy, Eb games or Walmart has ever received the figures in question. The fact that nobody has been willing to give me a straight answer to this is not helping either.

With the new game coming in September I want to complete my collection from the last game already.

I knoooow D :

I'm an Aussie but they haven't shown up here either. I really want Breeze! I'm also short of a fair bit of wave 4 and 5, but at least they actually showed up here - there just was so little they sold out before I could get them all : (

They're probably more likely to show up in Canada than down here, so I hope you find them soon.

I'd suggest you guys trade with somebody in the US or import them...they are currently on sale on the US Amazon.com site. I've personally never seen the air mini pack in stores here in the US and I've been hunting to lots of stores which stock Skylanders. Once the small supply of these guys dries up, I feel like they're going to be gone for good. If you wait, you might miss out. The US Walmart website has already pulled the air minis listing after being available on and off for about 2 months. The life mini pack has slightly better availability, but not by much (available on US Amazon and US Walmart websites currently).

They didn't show up in Australia either? Oh man that sucks. The fact they are screwing over international customers like this really blows.

Importing from the states IS an option, but it's an absolute last resort due to the added costs. With how low the Canadian dollar is right now it would cost me a LOT more to go that route especially since I'd have to pay for shipping.

Of course naturally they have some mini's on sale but not the one's I need. Go figure :/

I've had a look at ebay but my gosh was it expensive - and shipping from America is often more than what you're paying for the Skylander itself smilie

Though Amazon is a good idea! I haven't considered it before as so much stuff on Amazon doesn't even ship here, but I just had a look and it seems like Skylanders just might : D I really don't have the funds to buy all I'm missing atm but with such a small supply I just might miss the boat if I don't... ugh. Acti is not making it easy for me to give them my money.

The Fire and Water Mini Packs released here in Aus, but I check every Target I go to and I've only seen them at one store. Glad I just imported the last four- when I saw that none of my other stores had the Fire or Water ones, I knew I'd never see the Air or Life ones without importing them. :/

The last retailer in the US that has these for retail is Amazon.com (they've had it for months). Once their supply dries up, you will probably have to resort to the secondary market to get it.

Let me know if you have any troubles getting it or finding it for a decent price. I can always buy it for retail ($13.99 + tax) from Amazon.com and mail it over to you (not sure what shipping price to your country is though).
