Hey, found out a trick today to get Spitfire and Hot Streak for less than RRP (especially useful for Wii U and 3DS owners).
1) Buy the XBOX ONE or PS4 game for $64 (Target, Big W, or get EB Games to price match)
2) Trade in to EB Games the Game, this is currently worth $30 EB Games credit.
3) Stealth Elf isn't currently in their system, but she will be hopefully in the next couple of days.
$64 - $30 - Stealth Elf's Trade-In value = Less than $34 for Spitfire and Hot Streak.
If you have a higher level EB Games member's card, you will get extra trade credit too (10% (+$3) for level 2, 15% (+$4.50) for level 3, 20% ($6) for level 4)).
If you wouldn't usually use EB Games trade credit, just use it for preorders on wave 2 (which is now up in store and on their website) and get them to price match when they come out.
Hope this helps someone, certainly helped get me everything I wanted! =)

After selling out from preorders, the EB Games website is once again listing the Wii U Dark Edition for sale. In Queensland at least (not sure about other states), you can order one at the counter in any EB Games store and have it sent directly to your home from the warehouse.

Hey Aussies; did anyone get a Dark Starter Pack for Wii? I went to collect mine (in NZ) and they said noone received any in NZ so I was just wondering if that was the same for you guys or it was just a NZ issue?

Is there a necropost rule pod some kind? Sorry if that's the case.
Big W to have Frightful Fiesta and Legendary Sky Racing Pack on Thursday. Rumour has it that the last two minis are being released at Target the same day, although that's unlikely

My local Big W said that they're not allowed to sell Frightful Fiesta or the Racing pack until the 20th (and that the catalogue was silly for not saying that!)

My local big w said the same thing, but then they were stupid enough to leave the box on a cage on the floor.....
Needless to say I took a racing pack and went through the self serve. They are scanning up now. |

I don't think they knew what they were talking about, I've seen frightful fiesta at targets for the last few days and I saw frightful fiesta at my big w on the shelves today too. I couldn't find the racing pack but I didn't ask about it. Not to mention frightful fiesta already being sold at EB games for at least a week already too.

Ignore the Staff. They've been told that an apology has been given and that they won't be stocking it, but at least 3 of the local Big W near me in South Australia are all stocking it. I got one last night as I've posted above. |

I found them at a big w today in vic. Endeavour hills shopping centre.
I think they're just slow/ held up sometimes in shipping. the Americans seemed to have the same problem with their shipment to toys r us. It's not a huge shipment when it's just a single skylanders pack so it wouldn't be difficult to give it a low priority. I wouldn't trust the staff at all, most would have no idea about what's going on.

I bought the Legendary Sky Racing Action Pack from my local Big W store in South-East Queensland. I arrived at the store shortly before it opened, hoping to find it on the shelves, but the delivery hadn't arrived yet. I left my details with them, and they said they'd call back when the stock arrived. I wasn't expecting them to call back early that afternoon, though! They set one aside for me to collect later on, which I did the very next day. I decided to check stock levels, and there must have been at least 45 of them, split between a cardboard Skylanders standee and the Skylanders section of the Technology department!

Thanks.
![]() Well, the street date of the Wave 2 Vehicles is broken. EB Games now has singles of Jet Stream, Stealth Stinger, Shark Tank and Burn-Cycle on shelves. This is true for at least the Harbour Town store. EDIT: I bought Stealth Stinger and Burn-Cycle today. Every EB Games store I've visited has at least a couple of different Wave 2 Vehicles on shelves, so if you've been waiting for them, now's your chance. ![]()

They had wave 2 out on display at my local target tonight, including Smash Hit and High Volt.
But I wasn't surprised when they wouldn't sell them to me as they are embargoed -so I just put them on hold. |
