This topic is to discuss the most overstocked figures that nobody cares about nor wants. These are figures like Swarm, Legendary Zou Lou, etc. Let's begin!

Gearshift in my area...

S1 Hex, There is so many in my shops it may aswell have a section just for her. They are selling for less than a £1! I got one though.

Spy Rise and Rubble Rousers are everywhere...

Hoot Loops are WAY overstocked in every Walmart I go to,

But the MOST overstocked?

Countdown...

they have LC and normal COuntdowns EVERYWHERE!

Gamestop Best Buy Walmart you name it, and he's overstocked!

Most places sell him for only like $1-$5


Forgot to mention the Zoo Lous!
Zoo Lou and Countdown pretty much cover every Walmart,

And Gearshift is the same, just only at Gamestops,

bet the Rubble Rousers are not cheep.
i need that one. and + i am in the uk so. usa not going to be a big help

my loco shop had like 40 Pumpkin Eye-Brawl and it was just not selling for over 4 mouths i think them got it own to 7 left at that point. then the shop's refit (that started about 6 mouths before) was finished up and i not see one for 7 weeks maybe longer.
other then that my loco shop tend to under order figures.

In my country, definately Double Troubles, Wrecking Balls, S1 Warnados and Countdowns.It wouldn't be weird because the book store I regularly buy them at has a smaller section than usual this year, but even on game stores I don't even try entering has them filling up the displays.

Went to an (Oz) Target this morn and there was a whole shelf of Giants Cynders with quite a few SSA Cynders thrown in.

Also, because the Aussie version of TRU is so inept, they have a plethora of Legendary Chills left.

Gearshift. Definitely Gearshift.

She's practically falling off the already stocked shelves at my local GameStop and her pegs are almost always full.

All of wave 1.

And in mid march no one will be able to find a Gusto or Gearshift. Wave 1 is always in abundance through the end of the year...then disappear.

This certainly seems true as history tells!

SSA wrecking ball , Zook , Lightning Rod .

Gusto. I even found one that was out of the plastic that keeps it in place, first factory error I saw in person.

Oh yeah,there's also plenty of Zoo Lous and Smolderdashes on my area. Really wish I could switch stores with you guys to get a Gearshift ._.'

Magna Charge???? Now that's one you can't find at all in the US. You must have overstock and/or lack of interest in Skylanders in your country.

Well i have never seen a Doomstone , Scratch , Fryno or Punkshock where i live . I was quite surprised when i found out that Magna was a rarity in your part of the world.

I wonder if any country got them all .

Countdown and dune bug for sure. As for trap team funny bone ans gusto is everywhere

^ toys r us has been getting a lot of magna charges lately, but they are all that universal packaging with the weird peg cut out at the top.. Either way, it's all the same! I never thought of him as rare, just sometimes very hard to find.. When I need one for a friend, I can't find, then later I see them everywhere

Is this within the US that Magna Charges are popping up at TRU these days? I've only been to TRU once since the launch of Trap Team and I didn't bother paying too much attention to the Swap Force section...my only notable observation being an abundance of Legendary Zoo Lou's that were taking up a disproportionate numbers of pegs since nobody wants him.

Jawbreaker (both), Bushwhack, Head Rush, cores, both adventure packs, plus God knows what for SF & Giants.....
And that's just TRU. Rarest of TT: Wallop & Wild Fire

Before Trap Team came out, one or two of the shelves at my local TRU were literally covered in S1 Hex figures. I went there the other day and there were still a few on one of the shelves, but not as many. I'm pretty sure they were the only SSA figures they had left.

Earlier this year, when Swap Force was still relatively new, for a while, my local Walmart would be overstocked with Hoot Loops; regular and enchanted. At one point, it would literally be the only swapper that the store had. They eventually got rid of the stock and started getting in more varying swappers. I do also seem to see Zoo Lou in a lot of places too...

I'd say Magna Charge is pretty scarce here too, although I got lucky and found one at a Walmart that was near me. I have not seen him anywhere else though.

funny bone is super overstocked

funny bone is super overstocked

Funny bone is the sad attempt of the game creators at replicating the appeal of Hot Dog. Personally, I easily got bored of his gameplay. Of all the bland new figures of the Teap Team era, I like Déjà Vu the best as far as the most unique moves (although I haven't had a chance to play with Treadhead).

My overstocked figures are Lob-Star, Wildfire, and Zou Lou.

back when spyro's adventure was out... double trouble, double trouble EVERYWHERE, you could not escape from him, EVERY STORE, DOUBLE TROUBLE WAS THERE, and there'd be like, ten of them taking up the entire section
nowadays... i don't really shop for skylanders anymore so i don't really know

Funny Bone and Chopper are both ridiculously overstocked. Gearshift was for a while as well, but I've been noticing more Gusto and Jawbreaker than her lately.

It's different with older Skylanders because most of my stores don't sell a lot of older stuff. But I do see a bunch of Zoo Lou at Walmart and Toys R Us.

Chopper's cool, but Funny Bone was so-so. Looking forward to Bat Spin.

Me too.. Wish they would of offered all the 3 frito lay named figures in the current win contest

I went to a Walmart 5 or 6 months back and me and my dad checked the skylanders because I still had Christmas money. HOOT LOOP EVERYWHERE! Enchanted Hoot Loop basically had his own section and normal Hoot Loop was mixed in with the others over to the right. There was a lot of normals too but it was mostly Enchanted. I felt so bad for the employees in the photo area having to stare at them all day I bought one. Also a month or two before Trap Team came out Jade Fire Kraken was pretty stocked up good in all the Walmarts and Targets. At the begging of Swap Force Magna Charge was pretty easy to find also but Rattle Shake was another story... :/ The sometimes my family just walks passed the Skylanders and the minis are in high stock too.

GUSTO. SO MUCH GUSTO.

I see to many bushwhack it seems like everybody is waiting for tuff luck

I could find Gusto, Gearshift, Jawbreaker anywhere.

For Trap Team, basically all of the wave 1 figures except for Wallop. And Nitro Krypt King just hogs the shelves at all of my local targets.

For Swap Force, Smolderdash, Zoo Lou, Dune Bug, Rubble Rouser, Spy Rise and Stink Bomb, plus all the Legendary figures at TRU.

Most over stocked figure in my town, by far is...

Legendary Deja Vu.

Hundreds of them taking up valuable wall space in my TRU.

Metallic green Gill Grunt and Shroomboom are a close second.

It would seem my TRU is the one where Skylanders go to die.

I remember a long time ago.. I was walking out of TRU with the triple pack, another triple pack, and single, I had everything bought, and used up my money, but saw a metallic green LAYING ON THE FLOOR.

To this day, I still wonder if I should have gotten him instead of ...

I am seeing a plethora/glut of water traps in stores right now - to the point where some stores only seem to have water traps left.

In the skylander store i go to there are TONS OF...
, sure shots and Skylanders swap force starter packs and aventure pack and adventue pack

I think that is because 1. There is a Water trap in every starter so they may not purchase another and 2. There are 6 water villains to trap so they likely made more assuming people might like to have each villain in it's own trap.

Also I think there are heaps of winterfest lobstars and in my personal opinion variants should be more limited.

Update in my area: Ninjini, Ninjini, Ninjini... Jade Fire Kraken is still stocked up good... And I've seen TONS of Festive Lob Star.

In Auckland NZ its OUTLAW BRAWL AND CHAIN !!!
A nearby JB HI FI stopped stock on traps because they have 'enough' traps. But they have about 200 Outlaw Brawl and Chains and 2 or 3 life torchs

Shelves are filled with Gusto for me.

Torch, definitely torch, my tesco has a full shelve of about 30 of her for herself, there is more of her than all the other characters together where I am. Meanwhile winterfest lob star, gearshift, wallop tend to be hard to come by where I am.

One would think they would distribute these figures better...instead of sending 100 to one store an 10 to another. Cause there are people that can't find said figure an others that say thats all they have in there local stores.

Head Rush is filling the shelves at my local store; all the other trap masters are selling pretty well but I'm the only one who's purchased the lovely lady. Also lots of Life and Water traps about.
