Well, the stores may have a release date as well. A mark saying to not put on stores before "a date".



True but I sent an email to activision for a release date of wave 3 and they said they would be released when the stores got their shipments.

Fwiw, the listings provided in the first post are no longer allowing ordering at this time. Some say "Sign up to be notified when this item becomes available" the others just refer you to the private sellers. Glad I saw the post early and got my order in. Now just a matter of waiting to see if my order actually ships. smilie

So wait, does amazon actually have these characters available and ready to ship to people that pre-ordered?

They have dates on all of mine. Like delivery dates. No clue if they're in or not, but those of us who ordered seem to be getting ours from Amazon, while it says what it says to any buyers.

If I was to guess I'd say they are only anticipating a certain number and when the preorders exceeded that number by whatever value they choose they stop the ability to preorder. Those that preordered gave payment information directly to amazon and got shipment dates from amazon, not from the private sellers who scalp them.

I think three things will come into play, on how Amazon will ship to those who ordered.

1: First come first serve.

2: Those who are paying for shipping, and those who got a promo to change from paid shipping, to free shipping.

3: Those who chose to group their shipments into one shipment, and those who chose to go with the shipping method "ship as they arrive."

I don't think it will be bad at some stores. I remember when wave 2 finally hit Toys R Us. They had 20 boxes of wave 2 single packs sitting in a basket.

I mean it will be bad in the case of scalpers, if your local city/town has one. I know mine does. It could be a problem. That's why I have my orders still at two different sites now.



I've discovered some of the orders on Amazon now have the wrong pictures for the shipment. I'm not doubting you; just wondering if someone put a pic of a more common Skylander to fake us out.

I have talked to Amazon twice about this. I was worried to. Both stories were the same. The made an incorrect product listing title, but the ASIN number and item description are correct.

They package their orders by the "ASIN," which accurately reflect which character you're buying.

So despite my order saying nothing but Cynder, I infact have 4 Cynders and 4 Double Troubles on order, because their ASIN numbers are different from one another.

Gamestop at least seems to have a release date, cause when I asked what ones they had in I could here the guy in the background ask "Which ones are we allowed to tell them about?"

Awesome-sauce. Now, we wait. That is, unless, we find them at stores first, and then we can cancel our orders.

Ya. I might do that but I'm short on change and had a gift card...

They'll be all over the place before we know it. Perhaps even before the end of the week. Remember when finding Hex, Dino Rang and Wrecking Ball was functionally impossible? No? Well, that's because that whole period lasted less than a week. At least give it until next Sunday before abandoning all hope.

My mom doesn't do that sadly. If she did I would probably owe her $1000 by now......

I got mine with free two-day shipping and I ordered them on the 7th too. Shouldn't you be getting them before me? I even put them to bundle them all together.
