WAAAAAAHHHOOOOOO! I got the LR triple AND Double Trouble! Thanks Bolton Smyths. They had a huge box full of triples, so get there while you can. Also, it seems that DP has not yet arrived, but they said they get lots of deliveries.

I saw tons of skylanders at Smyths today!Tons! They had about 6 of EOI, PS and DC, 6 of Boomer triple and loads of Drill Seargeant, Chop Chop, Stealth Elf, Bash, Cynder etc. And two of the Wave four triples! I couldn't get them because I ordered them on Play.com and they are about to be sent, but still-great to see them for real though.

Well, it's most likely either Morrisons or Sainsburys. So I'm gonna guess... MORRISONS! But that's only because, in my experience, Morrisons is better on games and the like than Sainsburys |

But Sainsburys have Skylanders on their website at £9.99. Don't think they've actually got any updated stock (on their website) for ages though. I can't even navigate Morrison's website to find any Skylanders on it @_@

Our Sainsbury's is far better kitted for games for the most part than our Morrisons.
Mind you, their Skylanders section sucked, with all of five figures. |

Has anyone bought any wave 4 from shopto.net, and if so, has it been shipped yet? I know that some of you don't like it and have had bad experiences, but I kind of REALLY want the triple pack and I'm really disheartened that amazon has sent it to a handful of people and to the rest it says it's not even out yet!

It probably says it's not out yet because they still have loads of pre-orders, like with the DT triple pack. It's out, but because of the amount of pre-orders, when they do get a shipment they will be sent tothe people who got pre-orders.

Tesco in Walkden (Manchester) had EoI, Pirate Seas, Darklight Crypt and Zook/Cynder/Lightning Rod triple in earlier. I was in there about 3pm and they had about 3 of each plus the triple pack with Hex (not sure who else is in that one).
They had the Drill Sergeant/Double Trouble/Whirlwind triple in over the weekend but didn't see those today. Hope this helps anyone still awaiting pre orders.

wahhhhhhhhhhhhh Been playing Skylanders on my 3DS a bit though. I love how different it is. So hard though at times =/ *edit* So I had a word with Mum about said supermarket selling skylanders (where she also works). She's just had a word with me saying she's spoken to people that run that department and they will keep an eye out for gold/silvers for me ![]() |

Two words: Skylanders Chess ![]() On another note: My EoI finally arrived though it is the 3rd thing I have bought from Play.com in 4 months and all 3 arrived in a damaged box, ranging from "a bit squashed" like my Cynder to my "horribly mauled" EoI and my "looks like the derivery guy swam from Jersey" Complete Star Wars on Blu-Ray... I'm going to call to complain tomorrow... I mean clearly Royal Mail is at fault here but better packaging would have definately helped (any kind of padding inside the EoI or Cynder boxes would have prevented crushing). It's a good job I didn't want them for MIB display...

EoI's packaging is quite badly damaged but the figures aren't and I need to unbox that one anyway... But yay for DP ![]()

Looks like my DP order is fine...
I'm guessing they just don't have the stock to fulfil all the orders, which is why its been taken down. And anyone know the dates of the cancelled ones? If they're semi recently, it may just be the same as above. I mean... wave 3 on amazon is still listed as pre-order, so they obviously haven't filled all the orders yet. Wouldn't be so bad if someone other than Zavvi had a pre-order... but I think anyone would be stupid to pay £24 for an adventure pack when they generally go for £19.99. Not to mention I really doubt they're going to get them in 3 days time, considering no one else has them yet. Edit- And yes, I don't trust them either. They listed some Skylanders as "usually dispatched within a month", ordered them and wasn't going to get them until March 31st. ... This was January/ early Feb. I haven't seen a single one of their Skylanders with less than a month on their dispatch. They clearly don't have the stock, yet still advertise as such. At least be honest and say "Not in stock, dispatch when available" like Amazon
