darkSpyro

First off, congratulations to everyone who has achieved the fabled 37 of 37 Skylanders title.

*stands up on a podium*

Today, we mark the end of long hunts, waiting in lines, being told we can buy only 1. Today, we get to sit back and relax, knowing we have achieved what some will never achieve. Some got so impatient, they returned their games to the store or literally threw it in the trash.

My fellow brothers, today we sip our ghetto-water. Today, for those who are able to join this club (must be 37/37 to hit VIP status), we dance, as we wait for Giants.

Tonight, we dine... er, we dance. The party doesn't stop until Giants releases. Then, the club will close, where we must hunt again.

Who else is joining the club? Who else, has earned the 37 of 37 title? If you have, post away, and... welcome to the club. Drinks are at the bar.

hmmm, the Very Ignorant P's club ... no thanks

HEY! It's "very important people." VERY... IMPORTANT... PEOPLE!

Gonna be a small party until those amazon.com pre-orders start showing up.

When do the chicks arrive?

Don't think I'll get there.

I'm not in a rush to get the "Legendaries" but even if I did, I'd still be short Dark Spyro. And I'm not buying a 3ds starter set just for Dark Spyro.....

Iam with ya GM done and done

I bought my Dark Spyro off Amazon and paid all of $9 plus S&H for it.

The UK can't get any sort of release date for Dragon's Peak, we get everything from (last) Friday to June. Heck Amazon.co.uk doesn't have preorders for the final three and the brick and mortar shops are just as bad.

Kudos to you Gamesmaster for having the FULL set, my pockets just ain't as deep as yours

Everyone will get there. It will just take time depending on your location in the world. You guys were lucky, though. Amazon took reserves on L. Rod and Zook. I had to sit outside of a Toys R Us starting at 4:30 in the morning, just to be the first in line.

I guess...technically I have em all. I don't forsee amazon randomly dropping the preorders, so the last 3 will be en route sooner or later.

What's really weird is that I didn't originally want all of them. I was perfectly content with Spyro, Trigger Happy, Gil Grunt, Ghost Roaster and Terrafin (all picked up when I bought the game). Whirlwind I had bought about a week before I actually bought the game simply because I didn't have all my money together and I didn't feel like going to the bank to get more.

Then around Black Friday, TRU had that 2 for one special with the 3 packs. So I picked up the Legendary 3 Pack and Drobot/Stump Smash/Flameslinger. Before that though, I realized that I needed one for each element, so I went and purchased Stealth Elf and Eruptor. At some point I picked up Drill Sarge because I saw he was an exclusive as well.

After Christmas of course, I saw how scarce everything got. So I hunted down everything and fell into the Pokemon Syndrome. Otherwise known as GottaCatchEmAll-itis. It was a mad hunt, scouring stores for any stock to find the remaining ones. Then I think I finally decided to join here right before Wave 3 hit. (I had actually been creeping for some time. I needed another account on a forum like I needed a hole in my head. But you know, I had a lot of fun. There was an overjoyous feeling finding a ton of the singles I needed (Boomer, Prism Break, Voodood, Chop Chop and Bash). Then being one of the first to get Empire of Ice and having to hide it in Best Buy while I ran out and got more money from my car. Finding a lone Double Trouble 3 pack. Having to choose 2 between the 3 of Wave 2 because I didn't have enough money with me, then miraculous finding Dino-Rang up at Meijers in Sandusky all by his lonesome...like a sign. Then being able to buy Cynder online because she was basically nowhere here, my cousin getting me the Lightning Rod/Cynder/Zook 3 pack and Dragons Peak. It was a lot of fun. Annoying sometimes, but fun.

So there's my story. A thousand calls, a few hundred miles, 18 bottles of asprin and about $300 later, I'm just about done with everything. I'd still like to find a few variants, but I won't let it bring my collection down.

I have 22. I never wanted all 37. But am now starting to fall in to the 'well I might as well buy....' trap. After Dragon's Peak reaches UK shores, I hope to stop buying till Giants......hope to...

Well done though GameMaster78.

I only need dark sypro and whamshell

True. If you have them preordered through Amazon, they will come in. Thus, you are 37/37.

I guess if amazon preorders count I get to be in the club. I have all but wham-shell in hand but managed to get in on the preorder so yay. Considering my husband and I didt get into this game until February I'd say that's not too shabby.

I'm not fussed about getting legendaries or dark spyro, but I may consider getting the latter once I have the main 32 skylanders. I guess I can't join the club then

I need Wave 5, Sunburn And a regular chop chop. May order him tonight.

Well I got my legendary 3 pack in the mail today and if the Amazon pre-orders count than I now have all 37. I picked up this game only planing to buy 1 of each element but ended up buying them all. I don't think I'm going to go through it again with Giants. I might just buy the game and use the figures I have and end it there.

37/37 GM?

No offense. Anyway, I just got all of wave 4, still waiting for wave 5 in germany.

Not too shabby at all. My neighbor across the street got the game two weeks ago. With my help, he is only missing Dino Rang (he wants it in a single). One of the 5 Whams I have on preorder at Amazon is for him, so he technically has it. After that Dino Rang is found, he will be 37/37 in just two short weeks.

Got all of them to date, once my Wave 5 order comes in from Amazon.

Ughhhhhhh, so close! 36/37.

I can't find Wham Shell =(

I technically am waiting on either the preorder and or customs. I refuse to claim I am 37/37 until the Wham is in hand. I am just trying to resist the urge to stalk Wal-mart inventories for him knowing he will be here soon enough.

Big Babies club.

Collect little toys.
Boast about having more toys than others.

Similar to a 4 year old.

Some people only buy ones they like. I.e. Me.

Gamestop has Dino online

You mean the poines?

If your not careful, that's what this thread will get.

Im not planning to get the legendaries but if i see dark spyro i think i might get him so ill never be in the " 37/37 VIP only club" Lol

>Doesn't want Legendaries or Dark Spyro

So I only need Warnado, Camo, Wham Shell, and Sunburn 'till I have 32.

And yes, I'm buying them because I want/like them. I'll spend my money on whatever the hell I want, thank you.

37/37! Sweet! ...and when I finally receive my Amazon Wham Shell and FSS, I'll be 39/37.

Musicman, single pack Dark Spyros have aparently been sold on Ebay from Australia. You might look into finding one.

GameMaster, so I take it you aren't including the variants toward the 100% completion? I wouldn't either, but I was just wondering. I managed to pick up a Legendary Pack today, which means I'm so close to being done.

Sorry dude but I don't think it was Oz as they are not available here. I did see one sold from Oz but it was priced at $65 and you could buy a starter pack for less. I reckon the fig came from Singapore?

I believe single D/Spyro packs have been seen in UK and/or some parts of Europe?


Of course, you could always buy a second hand one...

Congrats. You spent hundreds on a bunch of plastic toys for your game.

Am I suppose to be impressed?

EDIT: I also like how you joke around about there actually being ladies at a party for people that spent their time hunting Skylanders. Best joke of 2012.

Keep up the jokes, GM, and you'll be the best comedian on dS.

I'm only getting the 32 because of the Heroic Challenges and other things they might unlock in the future...

Five to go.
I'm guessing blue Bash isn't one of them.

That's the plan.

Oh, and the ladies dig the Skylander nuts. They love toys as much as us manly men.

GameMaster, your the only one who has gotten 37/37,so lets just close this topic.

Why are all the My Little Ponies Fans bashing the Skylander fans?

Its still bizarre that MLP made a come back. Being 30 I remember when my little sister used to collect them.

Hmmmm im only interested in Dark Spyro not the legendaries ill have to have a look around

It's funny because this has nothing to do with MLP.

Me being a brony doesn't add on or take away anything from my points, or GM's points.

EDIT: Besides, I like Skylanders.

Whats a Brony?

^Urban Dictionary is your best friend.

But that's ok. I guess I can't have the avatars that I want to anymore without it trying to factor into the discussion even though it has no place in it, so I'll change it to something different.

And I already know someone is going to make a joke about the Devils having to do with this.

@CAV: I'm not taking GM78's side or anything, but from what I've read from your posts the short time I've been here in the Skylanders forums... do you ever contribute anything to discussions about the game or is it always about how Skylanders is a mediocre game and how everyone here is foolish to waste money on Skylanders and their figures cause the game sucks and the bashing of GM78 for no apparent reason? Just curious because if you don't really have anything to say about Skylanders other than they're a waste of money...most people on these forums have already overcome that hurdle and no offense to GM78, but I'm kind of tired of hearing about him. Also, it makes you kind of seem like you're just trolling.

As soon as Amazon ships my Whammy's I will be 37/37 complete. In honor of completion I added a sig. I see that the 155 char limit is not so arbitrary... ;-)

Now I just have to save dough for the Giants onslaught in October... Let's hope there are pre-orders available and we actually get an accurate account of what figures are debuting with the game and it's not some crazy "Dudes, I saw toot figure at TRU", "Oh, but I saw dingle figure at Gamestop", "No man, I saw honk figure at Walmart!"

Can't wait. </sarcasm>
