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.

Thanks for the post!.. Wondering if it pops online tomorrow as well? Might be easier for some people instead of tracking one down. With gas prices rising again, hell I'll just pay for shipping at this point and wait..

I doubt it. They usually wait awhile before releasing it for sale on-line.

Wonder if Gamestop will be getting them as well ? Or is this a timed exclusive for TRU?

Hows the Toys R Us HTAs usually go for Skylanders do they get rights to the figures for a few days, or is it possible we can start seeing her at Gamestop and other places the same day or week?

Legendary Stealth Elf, LC Shroom Boom, Lightning Rod, Eruptor, Stealth Elf, Prism Break were all available on line the day of TRU release so it is not without precedent Ninjini will be also but I'll be in line anyway.

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?

Called a TRU 4 hours away and they said its not just Ninjini its other w4 characters as well so she heard, and she confirmed one was Legendary LC Chill.

its about to get interesting

Just call TRU and tell em you heard they were getting Ninjini tomorrow morning and they will confirm it.

They will even tell you how many they have (example one I called said 35 total) and limiting it to one per customer.

Giants are a bit of a different creature as far as being available on-line. They maybe posted as being visible online, but will not be able to be ordered. I still doubt she will be available on-line.


Kjames360... I have heard from multiple people on other threads that it is just Ninjini. Nothing as far as anything else.

Hot Toy Alert should come out in the next hour or so. Or call a local TRU and see.

Could be right, I called a different TRU and they said they get a truck Friday that is wave 4.

so I keep getting mixed messages, one TRU didn't even have their Ninjinis yet and said call back after 6pm to make sure their delivery came.

The local manager here always looks out for me I was able to get wave 3 a few days early as well, along with LSE before black friday. I work 24 hour 48 off shifts so I'm not always able to go to their events so he hooks me up whenever he can.

Oh well...I'll be in line tomorrow morning for sure. I've gotta get up at 6am...so I should be first in line.

#41 Posted: 23:53:59 26/02/2013
I work for a living, so it kinda sucks they're releasing her on a Wednesday at 10am... I can't be there! lol Oh well, she'll be all over soon enough and she's my least fav Giant, so it's no biggie, just kind of a weird release date... who are they catering to, housewives??? lol Kids are at school and the career-folk are working... I'll swing by on my way home just in case there's still a couple left, but I won't hold my breath (I'm supposed to pick one up for a friend out of the country, so I'd love to at least get one for her on release day)!! lol Very glad I found Molten HD today after work tho, I just love cats and dogs, Hot Dog is such a cutie!! smilie

I have called both of my TRU in the Mid-West and they have some. Also, have people on the East Coast saying they are getting them tomorrow.

#50 Posted: 00:44:19 27/02/2013
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.
