So someone here mentioned we should try and help one another. So, let's do just that.

Whoever finds Empire of Ice, Cynder, D.T., Whirlwind or Drill Sergeant first, should grab a few to help one another here.

I, of course am looking for Empire of Ice, Cynder and Double Trouble, should anyone want to keep me in mind. I will do the same for others who post here, with what they are looking for.

Let's make a useful thread on here, where people help one another.

I'm in West Monroe, LA... I have checked EVERY store in my town, with no new skylander shipment. I will go back to all the stores this weekend to check again. I will grab all I can when I find them, to be sold to members here that actually love this game and not a quick $$$

I think people should also mention what countries they're in (possibly which they're willing to ship to if they can't ship worldwide), since it would disappoint someone if they wanted a figure someone was offering, only to be in the wrong country.

Either way, I'm in the UK, and would love some help finding Cynder, Double Trouble, and the Empire of Ice. I can try and help where I can, but we don't have much luck in the way of finding any figures where I am.

You do know that grabbing a few copies of Empire of Ice and the new Skylanders will slim down the chance of others getting the game and toys at stores? That doesn't seem fair.

I am down with that if i find anything i will buy a buch a copies and only charge shipping and what i paid this is not fair that these ebayers get the first dibs on them when the real fans have to pay triple what it's worth. Not fair at all

So yes very good idea gamemaster

It's a first come, first serve bases Aura . . . if the stores what to put a limit on these toys then that's their problem. This thread's ambition to help one another is indeed sound, but I don't know about the sending and shipping part.

I can see if someone here requested someone in another city to buy and then send that copy to them, then that would be good way to help one another out here on this forum (Let me clarify that I think it be best if someone just take a "shopping list" and report when one as acquired said item on the list crossing it out and then later shipping it to the customer).

Also, bear in mind, the more demand the more of the initiative to supply is in order. If Skylanders is as popular as we are lead to believe, then a shortage would deem Skylander worthy to continue production. It may be a little while before new shipments come in, but that just goes to show that Skylanders needs some major mass production in order to keep up with their consumers.

Porkins, get out of there. Your too damaged to do any good. PORKINS!

I have no problem helping out peeps that truely need help. I will not clean out a store if I find them, but once I get what I need, I won't be going back either. I do have a preference for helping those in other countries as it seems aussies and kiwis are having a real problem getting them. So, I will get what I need and any extras that won't clean out the store. I will ship south of the equator first and then across the pond second. If I have any left after that, I will help those in the states/canada.

I also do not want people looking for me. I have enough stores around me that I was able to find 18 of the 23 I have in a store and paid retail for. I have no doubt in my skills of acquiring the new figures.

I plan to help, too, if I get my beloved Whirlwind and Cynder. I'm not exactly made of money, but I've seen every single Skylander (aside from wave 3 and on) at least once in my town, except Whirly. >>

So if I get those 2, I'll send 2 to someone who needs them. I live in North Carolina.

Called my local gamestops in santa monica, ca and they don't even have shipments listed in the system for skylanders, so it might not be until next week. Called TRU and they're not even getting a general shipment until Friday and they don't even know if it will include new skylanders until they open up the truck and stock everything.

One of my friends works for our local gamestop and he sai
d they never know when they're going to get new skylander shipments and they don't even know they're contents until they put em on the shelves, he said they only get shipments when they get the skylanders in their warehouse. They're expecting a shipment soon though, theyre unsure if there will be any new skylanders though. well see. Can't wait either way. Lol

Edit; also I don't rly have the money for skylanders myself, I get mine from gift cards and bday/Xmas money and gamestop trade ins, so I can't rly help much, but when I get mine ill post pics and as much info as possible.

Heyo, Sheeps here with some news that may or may not be relevant.

But you guys are going to listen to this aynways cause you have no choice.

So today, me and my older sibling and her niece went into the Toys R Us in Sugar Land Texas to look at some of the individual figures there, when we got there the whole shelves were wiped clean except for the starter pack with the game and the 3ds version. When we asked one of the guys that worked there, he said that they would restock with more skylanders and some new ones by this Friday, FRIDAY, did I make that clear.

So perhaps the 3rd wave will hit us by the end of the week maybe, who knows, but I'll let ya'll in on more when I come back.

Now if ya'll excuse me, I've got a rad Zelda game that needs playing.

As much as I'd like to help people out, the UK gets really, really sparce batches of these toys so it wouldn't be fair of me to get more than one of each figurine. Seeing as my local store only got six of six in their last monthly batch, I think it's best I just try to get the ones I need smilie there are less people buying to sell at a profit in this country.

Also weird is a few of the Wal-Marts around here have gotten a few figures, but it only looks like Wave two figures so far (No triple Packs or Adventure Packs) Will let you guys know about TRU is there is anything to report.

They're gone. I got a new triple pack from the Walmart in Midwest City and Empire of Ice from the Walmart on southside Oklahoma City.

I just need Double Trouble and Cynder single packs (need 4 but 1 is better than none).

Dang it I see GameMaster78 found a Empire of Ice.
I had seen his earlier two offers for a Volcanic Vault.

I haven't found a Cinder or Double Trouble yet to trade.
(I also refuse to pay those huge eBay prices for another vs level and online code.)

I did get the last Empire of Ice in my area though. (Zip 81101 State: Colorado)

I need one of each for my collection

  1. Volcanic Vault (I don't have a best buy near me)
  2. I think all it does is add a vs level and gets checked off online

  3. Dark Spyro (I don't plan on buying a 3ds version and have not seen any hint at it being released)
  4. I don't think it will add anything other than a icon and playable character to the game

  5. Double Trouble (I already got Whirlwind and Drill Sargent)

I know Ignitor will be coming out as a single and in a triple pack so don't need him yet.

I will also wait for Cinder to come out in the triple back
