I only ever saw it briefly in Target when it first came out and never again. I checked Target for something else today and even though got new stock in, it did not include new Whirlwinds.

I ended up getting mine sent from the States.

She looks gorgeous, but the process of trying to find her is horrendous. May end up ordering online, though I doubt my Dad will be pleased with that :/

Tried all of these? I don't quite remember Whirlwind's exclusivity except that she's only available in Target or Tesco.

I just came from a Target not far from my work and they had approx. 1/2 dozen Whirlwinds in stock. I presume other Targets have similar stock?

I am more than happy to purchase them for people and send them to wherever - all I expect is what it cost me to purchase and ship, no more.

I did notice that they did not have any markings on them stating that they were exclusive. Then again, the Drill Sargeant I got from Big W when the game first came out did not have anything like that written on it, either.

EDIT: To clarify, I live in sunny Queensland, Australia so my offer is prob more applicable for Oz or NZ residents. However, I am happy to ship to wherever.

Target over here (IL) still had lots of Whirlwinds.

On launch, they had much more of her than the other singles, but now they're about even.

Maybe you should call and ask another store?

^ In New Zealand, target is a furniture store....

She's an exclusive, to a store we don't have here, so she isn't out at the moment.

She will probably be released world wide to all stores with one of the new waves of toys, that's what I would expect since her and Drill sergent (another exclusive) both say 'coming soon' on the Skylanders website thing, and they would have to, seeing as some countries don't have any of the exclusive stores.

So yeah, she hasn't been released in NZ yet, but she probably will be soon.

I've been waiting here in NZ too, and I hope they do get her here soon. I've been looking online, preferably EBay, but most of them are either too expensive, or don't ship here ):

I stopped off at another Target on the way home, out of curiosity and that one did not have any Whirlwinds at all.

C1nder, the offer still stand it is $A14.95 and I am sure that the shipping from Oz to NZ will not be a killer?
