I have a hard time believing someone actually won a dark spyro...thats a bit over the top.

I haven't "scoured" the internet looking, but I can verify that in neither the Old Thread nor this thread contain anyone stating that they recieved a Dark Spyro. I read every post in both and there were a few posts that said it'd be nice, and I think one that said some guy got one, but no confirmed arrivals of a Dark Spyro prize in hand.

No no I said that because someone on here stated that they were told by someone else (I think via Facebook) that they got a Dark spyro from this contest as a prize for random figure.
Nothing confirmed, or anything. No one here stating that they got it.
Sorry just had to clarify my post a little.

Anywho, wow so many boomers/Wrecking balls. And yes I agree they probably did that to highten the hype and what not. OR its possible that they will be handing out some Hex/Drobot and Prism Breaks. Its way too early to really tell for sure. It'd be nice to see someone win something other than the two being handed out so far. We'll just have to see.

I don't expect to get my Flocked Stumpy anytime soon though, since I won it so late in the game, I'll be probably one of the last few getting it lol. Though its fine.

I won online with a code

I only won via phone.

We're honestly getting these pretty early. We started seeing the bags around April 6th, so 6 weeks is May 18th (Next Friday) and the full 8 weeks is June 1st. So if you haven't gotten anything, they'll probably be sending it shortly.

Tuesday is a weird day to get them, but checking back in the old, older thread, I posted I had called in on April 6th (the same day I also bought the Walmart bag) and if the figure was sent out on May 4th, it took 4 weeks total.

I had won via code and phone my friend who won via codes later then me got hers already so i dont know I am hoping they show up today or start to

I won once with a code online and a couple times over the phone. So far I've only received one random skylander.

Hopefully we get ours today . I hope we get another wreaking ball or hex( out of those 5 in the picture on page 2)..because i already have 2 prism break.. 2 drobots ... And 2 boomers.
I have almost 2 of everyone & some 3-4 of them lol.

I received a Wrecking Ball in the mail today. I won using a code from one of the bags. I'm in St. Louis Missouri.

So are these being delivered to your doorstep or in the mail box? I'm asking because I've seen a few people say that they received their prize in the mail like the person above my post, so I just wanted to know where to expect the package. Thanks =)!

I happened to be out front when the mailman came by so he handed it to me. But, had I not been there, he would have placed it on my doorstep, since my mailbox is too small for the box to fit. The mailbox on my house is really only intended for letters.

My mailbox is pretty big, so they just stuck it in. Alternatively, if someone just has a mail slot or something, I'd imagine that they'd just leave it on your porch.

they placed mine behind my screen door. still just have the one i got a few days ago.. wonder when ill get more...

Add another Boomer to the tally. Central Coast California, phone win.

It's a Pegwarmer Tsunami around here!

The first of presumably many Wrecking Balls arrived in the mailbox today. The first win was with a code card on 4/8. Less than 5 weeks - not bad.

Wow I haven't gotten anything yet I'm hopeing I get something soon

None today ... Was hoping to see my son happy. Hopefully tomorrow. i called towards the end of the month so i might not be getting one till the end of may.

You do realize that there is fine print in the picture, right?? "Actual prize may differ from figures shown." They have the right to send whatever that want to. We'd all love to see more of an assortment here, it just hasn't happened that way....yet.

So Activision still can't keep any of the last seven figure releases on store shelves for more than approximately ten minutes, but they're shipping thousands of free Boomers and Wrecking Balls, seemingly out of spite, all across the country? Is it that hard to figure out which toys to print? Yeesh.

Yeah, but from a business standpoint, what do you expect them to do?? Ship out whamshells, warnados, camos...for free?? I makes sense for them to clear the shelves of the unwanted. It's a win win situation for them. Unfortunately, that's not what we WANT!!! Lol! We can't complain when it's FREE!

some guy jinxed us by saying "i hope you get 8 boomers!" to a guy that entered 4 times a day and won. i wonder how the guy will react when he actually does...

i dunno, boomer is pretty ugly for a skylander.. and hes not someone you should have 8 of ..... wrecking ball is just a ball... i need to paint boomer so he isnt so green and troll looking.. maybe give him some bright colors. like a happy green. instead of dirty troll green..

HEY!!

I don't expect the newest figures for everyone, but the least they could've done was reach into a random box and send what they pulled out. There was no need to deliberately consolidate Wrecking Ball and Boomer for this little shindig. Sure, it's effective business, but you know what's even more effective? Printing the figures people actually buy, so no one is left with a warehouse full of Boomers.

I know that im just saying out of those 5 on the picture ... I didn't say that's the only ones they are sending out.

Anyone know of a site where we can track them to see when they will hit?

Good grief, add another Wrecking Ball to the list. Just got the mail & was sad it wasn't stumply.

No, we're not given a code or anything to see when they may arrive. I only found that info from mine by looking up the number on the box after it came.

I received another Wrecking Ball and one Boomer today. All were won using a codes from the bags of chips. That is all I was expecting to receive of the regular figures. Now, I'm just waiting to receive two flocked Stump Smash's.

Ugg I still havent seen any and I won via code and phone. Maybe I will have some waiting for me when I get off work I hope I won at the beginning of April with a code and phone. Maybe today they will start showing up

Mine was won on April 16th, my brother's I think a week earlier. I don't think it matters the time these regular Skylanders were won but rather the distance you are from Minnesota as these are going out USPS from there.

Does anyone else think that perhaps Activision (or Frito Lay) can claim that they had a bad connection or couldn't decipher what the name or address was when given the information? If you called the number, you just spoke into the phone and told them your name and address. Seems like they could easily get out of sending lots of figures if they wanted to.

Just got a Boomer in the mail today.

Congrats everybody! No prize arrivals here yet.

I think it would be worse for them to not send the figures, personally. Either they can lose a bunch of cheap toys to some repeat customers, or lose the ability to sell chips to these people at all due to the inevitable backlash.

I got my first prize today (out of like maybe 20 times I won) - a Wrecking Ball...

Hope I get at least one Boomer, since we don't have him. Also hoping to actually get a Flocked Stump Smash, and not a substitute.

Oh, I'm from Hales Corners, WI - since someone was asking about locations they are being received in.

Got a Boomer here today in Northwest Ohio.

Boomer.

Wisconsin

Got another figure today. And guess who?



AWW YEAH. FLOCKED STUMPY IN THE HOUSE.

He's seriously nice looking. The covering goes all around except the eyes of course.

^Code or call?

Quote: posreject

^Code or call?

I did both. I believe it was the code that I had tried first and won, and then called later in the promotion.

Also, Flocked Stumpy comes exactly as the regular one. As in, he does NOT come at Level 5 with 2100 coins.




Also, I dunno if anyone would care, but the insert is different. It specifically says Flocked Stump Smash on it, which is kind of cool. I paper clipped the thing to the blister.

...And A New Contestant Joins The Race!!!

PS, Edit ... I just noticed there is now one FLOCKED Stumpy "in hand" on Ebay as well, with a $100 BIN price tag.

Beginning to worry. I'm in Wisconsin, you know the state right next to MN and I still havent gotten any of my prizes yet! I won with a stump smash code and tried a few times on the hotline, wondering if all the hotline winners are going to get screwed.

davesmsperfect won via just calling in, so what I'm seeing is that everyone who won via code will get theirs FIRST. (being that its easier to just copy paste the info we submitted online onto a shipping label)
Then, they'll probably start sending out all the call in ones because they have to have someone physically listen to the calls and write/type them down. (That would be the worst job ever)

Plus, don't forget; this is 5 weeks since the beginning of the promo. Officially, these won't be arriving until next week (the 6 weeks) to June 1st (the full 8 weeks, as detailed in the promotion infos)

Don't worry! Just be patient and they'll get there soon.

But I won via codes and haven't gotten anything yet

Woohoo! I just received my two Stump Smashes!!! Both were won with a code.
