Except the only ones on Amazon currently are $80. I am still waiting patiently to get one, I'm not that stressed about it. Will be nice when I finally have it but I can wait. I've waited this long haha. I have to drive up to where the TRU is to do shopping every other week or so, so I'll probably just check occasionally and make sure they haven't been put on the shelf anyway.

The street date has been lifted. Just picked it up myself in Southern California, rang up at register $29.99 plus tax. My store had six on the shelf, didn't even need to make them look for it.

So glad I didn't jump the gun on this.

Seriously I was close to paying $50+ dollars for it but I thought I'd wait till holiday time to see if they'd release it

After 3 trus, found 2 in commack ny. Thou Massapequa said they had 6 but couldn't find them. The woman tehre said the warehouse had over 3000 of these so maybe more to come or online soon.

Sorry if this comes off as negative. I'm really underwhelmed with how Ro-bow looks in person. With all of the shortcuts they've taken with Imaginators by using as little paint apps as possible, he isn't given justice at all.

I was really tempted about a month ago and by then it was over $80. I don't blame people that paid more than retail, the situation was unclear for so long and prices were only going up.

Hopefully whoever wants it can get it now at retail before stock dissapears and third party prices surge back up.

Thanks for the heads up on the register lock being lifted, was able to score one today. Yay for a complete collection!

Mine had them in as well. Lucky for me because like a moron I ordered the Cursed Tiki Temple off Amazon instead of LIM. >.<! It's OK as I needed a US packaging edition of it as I got mine from Germany Amazon a while ago as I thought it would never arrive here in the USA either.



Now to get a normal Chompy Mage and about 10 other Skylanders and my collection will be done.

Yeah, I got it a couple months back for around $50 including shipping. More than I like to pay, but I look at it as paying for having it two months early and it being nice having the collection finished and not spending the time wondering if we were going to be left high and dry. The extra price doesn't bother me at all for the peace of mind. I'm glad they finally put it out here, because it would have been really damaging towards the franchise ever coming back if they did not.

Can confirm they are available in CA Toys r us as well.

Also, if anyone needs the 3 dark characters for collection, send me a message, I have no need to keep them.

Canada or California?

oh HELL YEAH

Has it been confirmed that GameStops are starting to get them in as well? I don't have a TRU anywhere near me, but GameStops are all over the place.

Just picked mine up from tru in Grand Rapids Michigan! Glad i got it but sad at the same time...probably my final new character, my collection is now complete to at least one of each character.

Me too. The ebay price is currently $90 to $180. If they don't release CM, I'm thinking if bowing out with an incomplete collection.

My "closet" Toys R Us is 50 minutes away in Sandusky Ohio. They didn't have any. I'm going to have to buy this stupid pack for over priced online now. I hate how us Americans really got the short end of the stick. Though it's obsured I have to go this far for one Skylander.

Found last one in one of my local PHX, AZ TRU's. :-)

Is Canadians get the even shorter end of the stick. It's more difficult over here

6 just showed up today in Burnsville, Minnesota and I got one!

Had to go to two different stores before finding one. It was in the back, but they brought me one. Livonia, Michigan.

TRU is probably the only hope for LIM, so if you want it make a point to get it soon there - 6 per store seems to be the consistent count. I just noticed tonight that Target has even further reduced their Skylanders area by half (which had already been shrunk previously considerably), I doubt they will be getting anything else in store. Best Buy has outright eliminated the section.

Picked one up in Western MA this past weekend, along with 10 lightcore Giants Hex characters for a total of $1.02. Yay clearance and buy 1 get 4 sale, lol.

Army of Lightcore Hex! Someone bought out our army of them a while back. They had them all right up next to the registers and someone must have thought they were one hell of a deal. Perhaps in 20 to 30 years they may even make a profit off them. LOL I remember Atari 2600 Pac-Man carts being that dead common in the mid-80s and no one could give them away for under a dollar a game.

Our Toys R Us in Killeen, TX had five. We got one. Last one we needed!

Got mine in California, now just need the last crystals?

I'm not expecting the last five crystals. I wouldn't be surprised if they were silently cancelled like Heartbreaker Buckshot.

At least we've seen them in some form or other and they're not just code in the game. It's not much, but it's interesting.

Just bought one of three sitting on the pegs at a toysrus in Norfolk, VA.

While, I already have LIM, if they're in Norfolk, they're likely up in the North of Virginia as well.

Apparently LIM is advertised in US Toys R Us's holiday catalog, and it says, "Only at Toys R Us".

Very interesting that they are advertised. I wonder if that means they'll get restocked? I was pretty sure it was going to be a one and done type thing as they were completely out the week after I got mine. I've not been back since to check.

It would be nice if they get that normal Chompy Mage back in for whatever reason as it's probably rarer to get than a LIM here in the states now.

Yeah, isn't Chompy Mage the only regular skylander that hasn't made it to any US stores?

True, Only could get him in the villain pack on Amazon when SI first came out.
Glad I got mine then, if I remember correctly the price was equivalent of buy 7 get 1 free. Not as good as the buy1 get1 40% that TRU offered during first week, but I did not want to take the chance of missing out on CM. I saved him for Christmas and My son was overjoyed when he got him, knowing by then that he was not out except through amazon and out of stock.

Seriously doubt it. Seems like some exist as working samples/prototypes (the earth one I think it was).

At least we got each mold, with the wing mold seeming to be the rarest (only got one release as air crystal).
