I ordered smilie and the smilie smilie smilie triple pack. I got the estimated delivery date already, but its supposed to be here today or tomorrow and I haven't even gotten a shipment email yet! I ordered smilie the same day and got the estimated delivery date a couple days ago and got the shipment email yesterday! Amazon is sooooooo annoying sometimes.

Has this happened to anyone else also?

Similar things have happened with users in the UK who ordered EoI for release last Friday. Amazon cancelled the orders but didn't tell people until the Friday and only told those who rang first.

^ I was following the "photos or it didn't happen" unwritten rule smilie

Best thing to do is to call your local (delete as appropriate for your region) Walmart/ Toys R Us/ Target/ Tesco/ Asda/ Sainsburys/ Smyths/ GameStop/ Game/ Gamestation/ EB Games, discover their delivery day, call on delivery day, repeat until they have what you want in stock. Then get out your jet pack, put it on and race to the store before the Scalper does. The jet pack is not required if the store will hold the item you want smilie

Here in the UK there is no solid release date for any of Wave 3 yet. The few sites that have dates have varying dates. I don't know for certain what is happen in the rest of the world.

Zoolert is showing a bunch of older characters in stock right now at Amazon & TRU/FAO/eToys (they share the same stock). Grab them if you need 'em.

Even Gamestop is showing Flameslinger in stock...

Amazon cancelled orders? I got an email through saying mine had been shipped, so I cancelled my ShopTo order. I really hope that's the case! I'm going to have to check my orders for the other figures too now; that's got me worried!

No, this hasn't happened to me. Most likely as I haven't ever ordered Skylanders off Amazon, baring in mind just how useless they can be when it comes to them. smilie

I've never had a issue with dealing with Amazon directly. People need to make sure the order is actually going through Amazon LLC or whatever its called and not a third party that is posting through the site.

I'm supposed to be getting smilie smilie smilie today. I'll see if Amazon finally delivered when the UPS guy gets here.

Edit: Yay I got it! Now all I have to do is wait for my Cynder.

I logged into Amazon today and found that I needed to "approve" a delay in my order. Here is the message I had waiting:

=========================================================================

Order Placed: January 10, 2012
Delayed items--your approval required
Items Ordered Approve
Activision Skylanders Spyro's Adventure Character Pack Cynder
Your approval required by: March 11, 2012

We will still try to dispatch the above item(s) by the approval required by date(s). If this is not possible, and we have not received your approval for the delay by the date(s) listed above, we will cancel this part of your order.

Amazon sent me an e-mail this morning about my Cynder pre-order. Here is my update.
=====================================================================
