Someone found him this morning. The store hasn't been disclosed yet, although I'll update when it is.

UPDATE: It was bought from Amazon.co.uk, where Springtime Trigger Happy is currently available for purchase. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Skylan...r/dp/B00IAMP7LM

Well, it could be from the UK from Amazon as some people go them today or it could be from other parts of Europe like Germany and Italy as it has the European packaging.

I believe Walmart will be the first to get them. Mine had this thing on the side of an end display.

You could be right... funnily, I didn't even notice that it was European packaging until you posted smilie But still, I'm interested in seeing where this came from.

But someone else found him now; the post was from near Hadlow, which is in the UK, so it's possible the UK, or Europe at least, is the first to get Springtime TH now.

Skylanders Facebook also shows a pic saying someone found Fryno, and it shows Fryno in easter packaging with a US peg.

Makes me wonder if they are out in the US. If so, that means the last corelander for Swap Force is out (Punk Shock).

Pretty sure that this Springtime Trigger Happy was from Amazon or GAME.

The Fryno though.. There would obviously be a Punk Shock and a STH there also, so it could be another "trick" by their Facebook.

You can order these from the International amazon sites. Someone got it from one of those. No need to freak out people. There will be plenty of these at every store when they come out. There will be so many you will see these months later. Similar to GITD sonic boom, enchanted hoot loop and every other figure that has sat one shelves for months in the past. Anyone that says different is just trying to scare others so they can scalp them. These will be in bestbuys, walmarts, targets, toys r us and amazon. Not sure about gamestop bc they are always behind. Most people won't care about the packaging so they will not buy fryno. Just collwctors and scalpers. The other two will be more popular but still very easy to find. My TRU got 2 boxes yesterday of freeze blade and trap shadow. Even after the email toy alert this morning they had sold none as of an hour ago. They had one of each on hold behind the counter for one customer but that was it. I was able to go through the boxes myself. One of the hadn't even been opened yet. First box had stink bomb spy rise and rubble rouser. One of each of those and a few of blade and trap shadow. The other box was mainly trap shadow with a few freeze blade inside.

Yeah, scalpers try to create artificial rarity as well as trying to hype up the perception of rarity. It was easy when cases had like 4 of the new one and 8 filler to clog the shelves and hold up new shipments. Not so easy when the entire case is new stuff and they get three times as many cases. To clean out my TRU of the two new swappers it would have taken a couple thousand dollars up front (if they even let someone do it). You simply can't move those fast enough to stay ahead of restock and other stores. There are many zero bid (and below cost bids) auctions on them on EBay from people about to learn a hard lesson.

I'm keeping an eye on these Easter sightings just because I want Punk Shock. I couldn't care less about the packaging, and I already found the other Wave 4 figures. I'd like to pick up Spring TH too, but based on all of the Jolly Bumble Blasts I've seen sitting at every store, it won't be too hard to find.

And you were both right... looks like the TH I posted here was in fact from Amazon.co.uk. The OP on FB said so. smilie

Interesting...... wish I could edit the title of this topic, because I'm thinking about converting this thread to one about all the Spring Edition 'landers, especially since a couple of people on FB have now found all three in the UK, one in particular got them at Smyths, so UK peeps might also want to check there for these new figs.

Yeah, all of the Walmarts and GameStops that I've been in lately have been overflowing with them. I'm in the US, South Florida, if that helps any.

Why would a scalper tell you where he got them from? He will lose potential business that way.

They have little reason to be honest or polite, they are already attempting to take advantage of the immediate rarity at the expense of impatient fans. What you are basically asking them is "how can I avoid paying your prices". They have a very limited window of opportunity to cash in on these things, once they really hit he will be lucky to get retail for them. I hate scalpers, but it doesn't surprise me that it is uncommon for them to give help like this.

It's disappointing to see them on evilbay but to each their own some people see it more cost effective to just ebay than waste the fuel looking.
