If I have heard correctly Warnado is being sold in the US. If any of you have found it what store did you get it at? I've been looking all over but haven't had any luck.

From the looks of people posting, Walmart and Gamestop seem to be the only stores people have found Warnado (and Camo) at thus far.

Gamestop around here get their shipment in around 10:30 AM from a UPS truck. By 12 they usually have everything put out. You want to call them right around then and ask them to hold them for you. Some stores have a policy where they won't because they are rare, but that's BS coming from a douche employee.

Walmart is a different beast. The key is to try and get them to root around the back for you. Being a douche never works in retail, even if the employee is a douche. I Just try to be as nice and cool about it as I can and everyone once in a while they will look around for you.

Good luck!

So today I went to Gamestop and talked to one of the employees there. He said that with new pieces coming out shipments usually start on the coasts of the country then work their way inward. So with me being in the midwest it may take a while for it to reach them. He also said that since they have a ton of the others that have been out for a while they most likely will not be getting any new ones soon because in order for them to order more they need to sell what they have.

yep thats going to be the problem stores are going to be all stocked with old skylanders that wont move and they wont order any news ones which will make them even harder to come by.

One of the Walmarts by my house had absolutely none out on the shelves when I went yesterday and I didn't think to ask any employees because it was pretty late but tomorrow I'm going in to beg someone to go check in the back for me.

When they checked in the back did they have them though? And if you don't mind me asking what state are you in?

I got Warnado and Camo at the same time from Gamestop about 2 weeks ago. I think it was April 6th and I'm in North Carolina. I've got 4 Gamestops within a 5 - 10 minute drive from my house and all of them get their Skylander shipments on Fridays. Don't know if that's a company-wide receiving date, but it might help reduce how much you have to call/visit the stores.
