Spyro, Wrecking Ball and Ninjini are in brick & mortar GameStops TODAY! [CLOSED]

Just picked up Spyro and Wrecking Ball in North Texas. There were about 10 Ninjini on the pegs as well. If they're in my backwater GameStop, they're almost undoubtedly in your stores as well. This information has been mentioned in a few other topics, but I think something loud and inside of its own topic will give more people access to the information.

So, hurry and call or go to your local GameStop. This appears to be a wide release.

Currently no Gamestop in the Hampton Roads VA has anything in today. Check with ten (10!) today and zip. It is plain to see that stuff is being released all over so everyone should be on the lookout and provide info here on the forums. I'll be checking Target at Chesapeake Mall for Jade later...

Seems similar YMMV to Thump and Eyebrawl. The central US Gamestops got those in first, with Gamemaster's getting it on the first day (Ok/TX/etc.) and then over the next several days spreading out across the country. Mine on the east coast took until Thursday/Friday to get them in.

I might go to get Spyro/Ninjini today.

I'll do the smilie hunting thursday and will worry about LC Fizz and smilie this weekend.

Makes sense Texas gets em first since thats where gamestop.com has their headquarters I know everytime I get skylanders online it comes from there.

Gamestops in CT don't have them yet, maybe around Wednesday they will *fingers crossed*

This is correct. The Texas region does receive shipments first from Gamestop headquarters.

I asked Gamestop to hold a Ninjini for me today. Northern San Antonio area which further clarifies the Texas first thing.

I wanna check my gamestops, but no one will take me. I'm going Saturday or Sunday though.

I want the Lightcores to come NAO!!!

Looks like the Gamestops nearest to the corporate warehouse is getting the newer figures in first. My store has some of the single normal figures due to come in Tuesday or Wednesday. I'll find out in the morning what figures they get in.

#21 Posted: 14:13:08 05/03/2013
Yeah, I keep forgetting that I live in Oklahoma City, which is about 2 hours north of their warehouse and corporate HQ. That's probably why Tash and I found these at stores yesterday.

Exactly. I'm in Fort Worth, and every Gamestop here (yes, I called each one) received Wave 4 yesterday (Ninjini, Spyro, Wrecking Ball, etc.). It only makes sense that the Texas/Oklahoma/Arkansas/Louisiana region would get their shipments in first regardless of the shipping speed selected by Gamestop HQ.

None of the stores I've called in the NW Indianapolis area have gotten any yet. However, most of these stores get shipments on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I'll be checking again this afternoon.

Well, these things should hit my neck of the woods by Thursday. I live in CA.

Waiting for wrecking ball... *sigh* so many good memes.

I picked up Ninjini, Wrecking Ball, and Spyro today in West Texas at Game Stop. The employee told me they were officially released as of yesterday. Check around and you'll probably find them.

Neither of the two GameStops that I pass on my way home from work got any Skylanders in yesterday. Checking again today of course.

One of the GameStops got their shipment yesterday, but it didn't include any Skylanders. One of the employees mentioned that GameStops get their Skylanders shipments separate from their regular shipments, is this true?

The GameStop at the Ocean County Mall in Toms River, NJ had one Ninjini so I snagged it for my nephew who has his 5th birthday coming up next month. Still no sightings of S2 Spyro or Wrecking Ball though.

One of my nearby stores got 'em in today. Oddly, they didn't push them out to the floor and I had to ask for them... and they said they had no single pack Hot Dog. Not a huge loss, as I don't need him for the game and I'm sure he'll be pretty common... just weird. Well, 7 to go!

#38 Posted: 19:39:28 05/03/2013
I live in South Central PA and the 2 Gamestops in my area did not get any Spyros or Wrecking balls today, however, they did get Ninjini in but I already got Ninjini last week at TRU.

He lied to you then.

If they had Spyro and WB, they had 1 Hot Dog and Shroomboom in that box, plus 2 Fright Riders. They made a new box starting with wave 4. Boxes of 8. That box contains 2 Hot Dog. However, if he got you a Spyro, there was a Hot Dog there.

Wave 4 singles breaks down like this -

Assortment A -

2 Fright Rider
1 Chill
1 Sprocket
1 Hot Dog
1 Shroomboom
1 Trigger Happy
1 Hex
1 Gill Grunt
1 Lightning Rod
1 Spyro
1 Wrecking Ball

Assortment B -

x2 Fright Rider
x2 Hot Dog
x2 Sprocket
x2 Lightning Rod
