My first one will be eye small for sure


Mfw I get a million minijinis

i went to every walmart in a 30 mile radius and none had this product on shelves i also spoke w/ management and they stated that a local vendor stocks their shelves of those specific chips so its probably no supposed to be out on shelves til the 30th of June and the vendor in some locations have been jumping the gun so to speak!

Giants Sidekicks Now A Reality

Mini Jini..... Thumpling.... MUST HAVE
They're the cutest of the bunch. Therefore, I NEED them.

I went to target and found in the skylanders pop fizz and that's it they didn't even have the 20 bag chips

I want them so much! Barkley and thumpling are a must have

I only want Thumpling and mini jini.

Thumpling eye small and Barkley are must have

I found them today in Carmel, IN (suburb of Indianapolis) at Walmart. I know they were put out in the last 24 hours too, because I was at that Walmart yesterday. Good luck everyone!!

I found them at Walmart yesterday. We can't enter the codes until the 30th though?

So has anyone confirmed if they're limited to 4 per household like last year's were?

My guess is that with July 4th coming the stores are looking to stock the shelves with all the chips and party type of supplies they can. The Walmart by me yesterday had 4 or 5 different 'Chip Stands' set up. (No Sidekick bags yet). Those that had the new bags on hand probably put them out there.

As the supply is used up then the chances of the sidekick bags coming out will be greater. So, next couple of weeks they should be on shelves.

At least that's my 2 bits.

Great minds think alike.

A&P nearest to me has no bags whatsoever, that's a good sign to me.

Just so everybody is clear, the coupons say limit 1 per purchase, so I'm assuming that means you can only use 1 coupon per swap force starter pack unfortunately.

heres some avatars i made for you guys... you all can freely use these, enjoy

They are really nice! I'll probably take one!

Still haven't found any bags in greater Cincinnati area, checked both Walmarts and Targets. Anybody having any luck in Southwest Ohio area?

Finally got to checking my Wal-Mart - no dice. Hopefully there'll be some later on.

This is how I found mine, in the stores I got them in it was cause they were stocking a display at the front door.

Bought 4 of them in a Walmart in Danbury, CT. It's funny because I never go to that Walmart, or Walmart period.

Wait wait wait... I've known it's a bag of bags, but is it actually a variety pack? Having all 6 of those flavours? I HATE when they do that! Like here, I wouldn't want the Barbecue or the Spicy Doritos, and I'd have to try the Chili Cheese Fritos before wanting 3 bags of it, but if I could get this I'd have to take all or nothing.

Never mind that this is reportedly not available to us Canadians. We're good enough to buy Skylanders merchandise, but not to get contests.

Wonder if eventually they will have another gamestop promotion. I don't feel like driving all over town everyday looking for something that should be stockef on the 30th but won't be. Still upset about the LC hex thing to. Can they not gift us anyone to take a break from collecting these? They just run it right into swap force.

I checked the walmart in Holland, Oh. I was staying at the hotel down the street, figured id kill some time while family was still asleep. No chips there but did score a slambam. They also had a few wave 1 stuff like single zook and ignator.

We called our local grocery store, I asked them to contact their vendor and the Frito-Lay chips vendor says this area won't get them until at least Mid-July. That stinks!

That stinks /\

STOP ASKING! Jeez, it's been confirmed as a NO.

I haven't looked really hard for these bags of chips (yet), but for what it's worth, I did not see any on the shelves at Target or local grocery store chains yesterday/today in Charlotte, NC.

One question I have could you buy four bags and send everything in at once for the four characters or would they have to be sent out in separate envelopes?

Sounds like we don't mail anything this time. Just enter the code online, and pay shipping online.

Its all online, the address is posted somewhere in this thread, just it doesnt start till the 30th of June. So we will know the details on that day exactly how it works as the bags themselves give little detail.

I'm personally responding by reducing my collecting of Swap Force by 50%, assuming I even do it at all. Very bad move imo. We should all be sitting here high-fiving everyone on enduring another wave of skylander collecting...but NNNNOOOO...hold out the final figure until Swap Force is released (at the same time, Austrailia gets her now; the last 4 characters being extremely late being on US soil).

^ Australia has to wait for polar whirlwind to get her as a pre order for swap force so they basically did the same to them as the US. Though I happily do have bags from the promotion now as they came in today. I snagged four bags and got my codes.

If you're fortunate when you find your bags they'll have a 1 buck off coupon off just one of the packs. Walmart had it on sale for 5.49 so got some of them for only 4.49 each.

The bags tell you the codes are on the inside and they are, by the coupons for 5 off giants starter or 10 off swap force starter, along with a coupon for 1 buck off a single character giants character. The codes are 13 characters long. You pay their shipping and handling of 2.99 through a third party handling site but it's all handled on the website this time. It also takes 10-12 weeks for the figure to arrive.

Got 4 bags from Publix grocery store today, in Florida. Opened one and no card inside, kinda freaked me out. Read the the package and its just a printed code inside. Neighborhood kids already ate 20 bags...

i live in daytona beach, fl and still cannot locate these bags anywhere within 20 miles of daytona beach im getting fustrated going to the store everyday

The website changed and now say's 'one of each character per household.' Does this mean you can chose what you get?

Yes you can choose. Check the skylanders dad video about giants sidekicks!!!

And I have a question... Who can PM me a free code so I can order one? I'm Canadian! And I need a sidekick (Unused code plz)

The 1 of each character doesn't make any sense because what if they ran out for the time being of 1 character, you would get a duplicate.

Okay--anybody is South Florida that has found the sidekicks bags--please let me know exactly what store. I'm going to drive to get them--within reason. I spoke to the local frito lay rep who said the stores that are serviced via his warehouse will not get the promotion for a month or so because it'll be a "back to school promo". He called his supervisor and got that info. So, id like to just drive and get them already..any help is greatly appts iTes.
Thank you

Nothing in Bellingham, WA.

Nothing yet in youngstown, Ohio. I went to both in my area looking for them. But the one in boardman ohio had the pirate ship, ice castle and sun burn ad on sitting on the pegs

I'm hanging in flint, Michigan for weekend. Saw none of these chips in Burton, lapeer, and one other whose town I forgot. I need see 5 ninjini in the mijers in lapeer.

Good news from Colorado, my Mom just texted me saying she's found lots of the bags at Wal-Mart! (I'm assuming so since it's across the street from the Petco she went to.) So I do hope the rest of the middle-US states will be seeing some soon.

Edit: Scratch that! Turns out she found them at King Soopers, and they were the only four there. (Half of them being hidden on the top shelf) So if any of ya'll have a King Soopers nearby then that would be a good place to check too!

Just found a bunch of bags in a walmart near Allentown Pennsylvania. Got 4 bags so that should cover all 4 giants sidekicks. Good day! Now I just need to find an s2 drobot.
