Which local So-Cal TRU, YOLOrenzo? Be specific...


I wasn't specific since it's the location I'm planning on lining up at, so I'm being selfish and would rather not say =D

Just call around So-Cal yourself and find out on your own.

I called ToysRUs, and got confirmation from the manager that there will be a Hot Toy alert featuring Ninjini! Stores will be getting a few boxes of her in, along with some regular Giants.



When? I gotta know!

Thanks. Would you happen to know where? Like, which states? Possibly PA? Someone I know lives there and wants her. I need to tell them ASAP.

At the Toy Fair they said you could get Ninjini MONTHS before its retail release... I think they mean 1-2 months lol



Well, now, as I just found out, it's not even a month. Wow.

Jerry, I am in Oklahoma. Every TRU has them here, but can't sell them until tomorrow. It's not just a west coast thing.



Ok, cool... I just went to my TRU to talk to someone... Is it just normal for even the stocking people to not know what the heck is going on? smilie

I just called my Toys r Us in Hattiesburg, MS and they confirmed they would have them in the morning. And they said to get there when they opened because the last time they got a Giant, they sold out before lunch.

Looks like tomorrow is the release date. I'm betting the store I found them at just put them out early! Probably wont have any in there by the morning leaving a few unhappy people i'm sure!!

I also got the buy one get one 40% off so withthat deal dont expect these things to be on the shelf for long!!!

I got the email, but I'm not gonna be able to pick her up tomorrow sadly, and can't send anyone else out to go in my place. Looks like I may just have to wait until my store gets in Ninjini and grab her there. Any word on how early this release is for TRU?

Censors, Zap.

And if your mom saw THAT, she would NEVER buy you a single Skylander for the rest of your life. AND if your dad saw that, he wouldn't get Ninjini for you.

It's not. I just got back from my local TRU in Northwest Ohio and they confirmed that they will have it tomorrow morning.

Does anyone know if it is just Ninjini or are the other figures with her?

Are the TRU opening at their normal time? The HTA doesn't say anything about early but I just wanted to make sure.... and would this be one of those where you need to get there a couple hours early if you want to snag one?

Not to be a downer, but unless I signed up for the wrong "Hot Toy Alert" feed earlier today, I still haven't seen any official email announcement from Toys R Us.
There's still a couple hours left in the workday, depending on your time zone, though ... do these Hot Toy Alert things typically get announced after 6:00 PM Eastern?


What time does one usually need to be at TRU after a hot toy alert to have a chance in hades?

The TRU stores are opening at their regular times.

How early you need to show up depends on how many players/scalpers are in your area. I usually show up 30 minutes early and roll the dice!
