Went to my local Gamestop in Birmingham Alabama an hour ago and they had only gotten one of each which are the ones I picked up!

Link for proof!

Purchased @ gamestop garden Grove Ca..aprox 2pm

Here we go! I always expect the Giants to be a little bit bigger for some reason haha.



What I find funny is I kept calling every day since Tuesday and getting the same person each time, who I'm pretty sure I've annoyed by now, and he said he was sure they were coming out in two months/March.
I also got a Terrabite and Trigger Snappy out of it, I don't really need them so hopefully I can find someone who still does. :<

Called all GameStop in Aurora / Naperville Ill. area . All said they had them , about 3 of each. (Eye-Brawl , Thumpback ) . No luck on getting them. The sales person said a new shipment on Friday.

Called all over central Florida and the Gamestops confirmed that they had them and sold out almost immediately. I got lucky and called a Gamestop in Kissimmee, FL -- they had gotten to their shipment late. They held them for me and I just got back from over there. Drove 25 miles for these guys... So happy. My advice, keep calling. A late night run wouldn't be so fruitless.... Some of these Gamestops open their shipments late.

Anyways.... They are indeed in Florida, starting today.

Here is a pic. Purchased from Kissimmee, FL Gamestop. 407-846-3092

Are these out in the U.S.? I asked an employee at my local game stop ad he told me they wouldn't be out until February...

I just have to thank each and every one of you guys! And whomever made this thread. It has been so helpful in the quest to find these two.

THANK YOU, EVERYONE!!!

You can add New Orleans, LA to the list... walked out today with both Thumpback and Eye Brawl from gamestop. Called all of them yesterday and nothing.. today, they got them in....

Good luck hunting everyone...

WHY DOES EVERYONE HAVE THESE BUT ME

LOL after seeing all these pics this is my reaction exactly.

I checked one of the gamestops in my area. No dice. Going to check the other soon.

Try checkin' up on 5 and getting nada. T-T

I can't find them anywhere as well!!! I WANT MY EYE BRAWL!!!

Just came back from Game Stop . Talked with the sales person , I guess at this point call every day around 11-noon . He said gets shipments every day , but of what they don't know. This is for everyone in Aurora/Naperville Ill. Good Luck , Happy Hunting!

I'm just so over the Skylanders hunt. Can't they just make it a bit easier like a release date or some pre-orders instead of having a panic induced sped run to the nearest store at the faintest hint of release.

No go in Santa Maria/Lompoc California. Not all the West Coast is getting them in yet.

Well it's the first time in a long time that my kids are all caught up.....found about 4 Thumpbacks and 4 Eyebrawls at local Gamestops. Was able to grab an Eyebrawl for each kid and 1 Thumpback for one of them.

Pretty happy to being caught up

nice topic but if there are sightings in CANADA can you plz like write Canada and then like the towns like you did plz? would rly help thank you

its so annoying how these are released...a book has a release date and it comes out that day, if a local store doesnt have it, you can at least order it online. these just trickle in. Some people get them, some people don't. Stores don't even know when they're available. I had one today too, saying not til february.

Don't worry if you haven't got them yet. Everyone will have plenty by next weekend. DO NoT buy on eBay show these scalpers that hording all of the skylanders is a waste of their money. They will only be hard to find if people keep buying them off eBay. Its simple if u want them stop buying on eBay and scalpers will realize skylandera is a waste of their time and money.

3 of each came into the Bristol, VA GameStops today. I snagged my set as well as an extra Sidekick!

Searched all over western long island ny today, nothing. They don't even have it in their shipping manifest as coming soon.

Hey guys, I just threw all the sightings so far into a Google Map. I *think* I've fixed the settings so that anyone can edit it. Feel free to star a location (basically search for it, click the "A" pointed and hit the star)

For those that are on there already, you should also be able to edit details of the locations so you can either put what you've found or even drag the marker over top of the actual store you found it in.

INTERNETS.

Haven't seen ANY reports of Canada sightings. But, keep in mind that the reviewer packages included one more figure we haven't seen yet. Legendary Lightcore Chill. And Canada has always gotten new Legendaries first. Small consolation, I know, but you might be able to use some of those in a trades if the new giants don't show up by then. I know Gamemaster would probably hook you up if you found Chill early.

oh ok cool

I love that people have seen them in Washington when I haven't. So far it's, what, just Walmart? I've been told by the local TRU that they're checking their inventory or something. They've said they haven't gotten these due to Snoqualmie Pass being closed. But I thought it was open now...same complaint from the GSs I called. I seriously wonder why Walmart is able to get these things when TRU and GS can't. Are they simply using another route? And why oh why are they claiming they'll recieve these in February? I was told that they "weren't out yet" and "wouldn't be till February". When I told them that they were already out they asked me if I had proof and I told them about all the on hand pictures. They were surprised! I'll keep calling them. Just so you know, I've been looking in the Redmond/Bellevue area of Washington so if anyone has more info in those areas, please post.

Pueblo, CO is now getting them. I had been calling all three Walmarts and GS's in town ever since I heard they were released. I called the South Side GS today at 4 and they had one of each. I was greedy and bought both of them. Sorry to those who don't yet. They will be everywhere soon I am sure. Good luck to all on this site.

Well, I've got mine, but I added both sites that I made sightings at today. Hopefully it'll give someone else hope and/or a chance!

We're have they been spotted in Chula Vista?

Made a few calls today for all my fellow Georgians. Looks like Alpharetta, Gainesville, Dawsonville, Flowery Branch, Buford and Canton all received shipments. Alpharetta seemed to have the most quantity (4 EB and 4 T and surprisingly they didn't have many people interested as of 6pm today. I wonder if people even knew they were out.

Called a few Walmart sites as well. Nothing there, and sadly no one knew what I was talking about. On a somewhat positive note, most of them did have the single pack Wave 3 characters in stock.

Just got Thumpback and Eyebrawl at Walmart in Katy, TX. Only 1 of each on the shelves with 2 Crusher and 1 Hot Head which only counts as 5 I have no idea where the other Giant went. Good thing I couldn't sleep tonight.

Grr i cann't stand people have em' what sores in hawaii i'll be touching down from the sky later on and can any one help me?!!!???!!?!!?

Hickory, nc got them this morning.

Picked up both at Ames, IA Wal-Mart this morning. Couple of Hot Heads as well.

Means someone - or multiple people - must have gotten there before you and picked up an EB, TB, and 1 Hot Head, because this is how the case breaks down -

2 Thumpback
2 Eye Brawl
1 Crusher
1 Hot Head

If you saw 2 Crushers, that means they got two boxes of these, which means that store had 4 Eye Brawl and Thumpbacks, 2 Crushers, and 2 Hot Heads.

I got Thumpback and Eye Brawl yesterday at Gamestop. They were at the Mall of America 3rd floor Gamestop (2nd floor hadn't seen any).

That mall is ridiculous. It's funny that you have to distinguish between the 2nd floor and 3rd floor GameStop stores.

One of the malls near me is not even that big of a mall and it has two gs

Found them at GameStop in Cary, NC. Only got in 2 of each, and I snagged the last pair.

Got them at GS in Culpeper, VA today.

You can add Atlanta to the list. I picked up Thumpback and Eye Brawl today at Gamestop.

Which one? I got mine yesterday at the GS on Howell Mill, though the two people in line behind me each bought a set and they only got one box. That means they sold out within minutes of the single box being opened. Maybe your GS got more... I'm sure people would like the info.

Also, just as an FYI, it seems as though none of the Walmarts in the area have seen either new giant yet. I've already got one each and I wouldn't DARE buy any additional figures - gotta leave them on shelves so everyone can get what they want. But I thought the info might help someone else. So yeah, if you're in or around Atlanta, GA, don't waste your time checking Walmart. GameStop is the only game in town as of right now.

They are in the VA !

Scored my duo in Ashburn.walked in 2 minutes before the UPS truck.
Gamestop is the best.

Got Eyebrawl at bottom floor Gamestop at the Pheasant Lane Mall in New Hampshire. Girl at the counter said that they only got him and Bouncer and Swarm in, so checked the top floor Gamestop, which had not got their shipment yet. Went across the street to the Tyngsborough store, which did not get a shipment today due to having too much backstock. Went back to the mall just as they were opening the shipment and got a Thumpback there, as well as another Eyebrawl and Gill Runt for a friend who needs them. Long story short, they have hit New Hampshire!

Got one of each in Carrollwood/Tampa, FL - last 2. Unfortunately, they rang up to 29.98 so I had to buy a Terrafin stylus to get a free Sidekick.

I called a GS in Fayetteville, North Carolina and Eye Brawl was in. I know I've posted this info about 4 times, but I just wanna help the cause. He IS out in NC

Got the only one of Eye Brawl and Thumpback that came in at Gamestop in Victor NY.

Picked mine up in Eastgate Ohio which is a sub burb of Cincinnati. I bought 1 of each and left 1of each for the next. guy.
