It doesn't sound like it, because a couple people have bought them. I mean, the worst they can say is that it's register locked.

Well here goes nothing. Shield striker, thump truck and splatter splasher is the only thing new releasing on 12/1 right?

As far as I know, yes, and that's what all the employees I've asked said.

Wait, no Sky Racing Action Pack?

When I checked out the girl scanned the first one and the register screen turned red, she said "$#@!", pushed a button, rang up the other 2 and I was on my way. All 3 for $33 after tax bc of the sale. Sweet!

Sky racing pack? Ughhh I gotta go back and look. Shield striker next to buzzing and roller brawls vehicle was one of my fav's but the figure is so tiny in my opinion it ruins it. Would've liked so much better if it had some size to it. Can't believe nightfall isn't out yet, glad I grabbed one on evil bay for 20 bucks when I had the chance.
*******Update:went back, no sky racing packs other than the legendary one********

No, not that the employees know of. Of course, they could always come in on a UPS of FedEx truck.

Just got Nightfall earlier today can't wait to try her out!

Wave 3 in Italy should be the same in what we are getting over here, so I think we can expect the Sky Racing Pack along with the vehicles.

If anyone buys wave 3 figures/vehicles at Target, please post the DPCI numbers from the receipt. It helps being able to look them up in-store.

Getting my wave 3 vehicles now. Don't seem to be register locked. 33.53 for all 3 after tax thanks to some promotion going on with TTL products at TRU.

It's $20 off a skylanders purchase of $40. I got the same deal last night and online yesterday I ordered boomer/Dino rang elites. Dino at full price, boomer for $1.99

Does it say when the deal ends?

Nightfall by the end of the year...?!

Now THAT would be a great Christmas present!

EDIT: just checked Amazon.it as well and it lists her both for the 31st and the 18th of December.
I guess the former is a placeholder but the second could be quite plausible at this point.

Gamestop is advertising having Nightfall first this Saturday, Dec 5 along with Missle Tow Dive Clops. Advertisement mentions B1G1 free offer.

Thanks go out to ZapNorris for posting.

Can anyone here who works for Gamestop or knows someone at Gamestop confirm they'll have more than a box or so of Nightfall? I can see this being very problematic otherwise.

Drek: It is MOST DEFINITELY in Activision's interests to maximize pre-Christmas sales of this figure. I'd argue 18th is very late. Same for sky pack, for those who don't have a TRU nearby or don't want the Legendary version. Light/Dark are still a "hot" commodity in the franchise.

I can confirm that my Gamestop in New Jersey has her. I'm friends with the manager, and he told me.

Having her is one thing, having more than the typical 5-10 figures (I'm recalling Polar Whirlwind) is another. I can see this being out of stock in about 30 min after open if they only have a handful.

He did not say how many. I just know that Gamestop will have a full-on riot at their door if she's not there on December 5th.

Right, and I don't want to be there to be part of the riot if they do what they've historically done at these events.

Heh, I think you are over-estimating Skylanders demand this year. If you are concerned either be there at opening or go to a lesser traffic Gamestop. Nightfall is in demand, but only from people that even know she was supposed to be Wave 2 - and there are less and less of those people. I know we are all gun-shy due to previous years, but even if you miss her at Gamestop, TRU will likely get them within a week.

It does seem this GS event has more buzz than any non-launch Skylanders event has had in quite a while. I think if they don't limit it, with the BOGO sale and the prices Nightfall has been getting on eBay (granted, for other reasons), I could see some resellers clearing stores out on this one.

Have you seen any of wave 3 there?

Not right now, no. But I think we could expect at least Splat, Eruptor, and Pop Fizz to be there on Skylander Day.

I can check mine tomorrow when I go to check for Wave 3 vehicles @ TRU. I know one of the managers at the Fullerton store near the TRU. They're all near each other: Target, Best Buy, GameStop and TRU.
If Nightfall does come out on 12/5, I could at least have 4 supercharged combos completed.
Whoever posted thar GS article, you're awesome. I know many, besides myself, looking forward to Nightfall for those who didn't get her on her maiden launch.

I keep hearing something about Superchargers being $6.50, is that gonna be in addition to the B1G1 thing?

^ Gamestop BOGO offer effectively means a $12.99 figure is $6.50 each.

I don't do Gamestop, usually. Wouldn't know.

Does anyone know how many vehicles come in each of the boxes? My local Toys R Us only got two boxes of the wave 3 vehicles in and I will not be able to get to the store until around 3:30.

If you ask nicely and you can get the right person on the phone, sometimes TRU will hold items for you at electronics. But only if you pick them up same-day. The hardest part is getting an employee on the phone who knows what in the world you are talking about. They always ask me if I'm calling about amiibos!

I didn't see the BOGO deal for Skylanders for the GS ad for Skylanders Day. That works out because I can get Nightfall and MTDC at the same time, even though there's still BBPF. I'm holding off on him until the combo pack.
Tomorrow getting the three Wave 3 single vehicles: Thump Truck, Shield Striker and Splatter Splasher..
I'll have all the common elements, just need Nightfall for Dark (got Legendary Sky Racing pack, though I want the regular version of Astroblast & Sun Runner).

I found splat 11/30 yesterday at gamestop because no tru I went to had any wave 3, gs had all 3 wave 3 figures and a target I went to had bb pop fizz. I recommend using gs website and using your zip to track down if there near your location if tru wasted your time like they did me.

Going to TRU today. Wish me luck!

Tru had no way three vehicles today

TRU Minnetonka, MN has Wave 3 vehicles. Picked up all 3 for $33.22, but no Sky Racing pack yet.

no wave 3 vehicles in Jersey this morning, maybe I will try later this afternoon, nobody there knew what was going on

I sure hope they have wave 3 vehicles at GS on the 5th. Then I could get another free figure in my haul!

Got my three Wave 3 vehicles. Originally $33.65
I had a $10 TRU Rewards coupon, so I got $10 off, which ended up $23.65
Not too shabby.
Three more supercharged combos done.

None in Idaho yet

Just found the wave 3 vehicles at my TRU in Tampa, but still no Eon's Elites /:

Just need for this wave
BB Roller Brawl and Tomb Buggy combo pack
BB Pop Fizz and Soda Skimmer combo pack
Astroblast and Sun Runner (regular)
Nightfall

Then all I need is DD Trigger Happy/ Gold Rusher and Thrillipede/ Buzz Wing to finish, unless I go for the variants.

My TRU in south elgin had no wave 3 vehicles, thought I was going to get something good when I'm and at home :/

I'm starting to think Tomb Buggy, Roller Brawl and Soda Skimmer are Wave 4 - the original guess they were Wave 3 was due to retailer dates and many of those have been shifted. The doubles/triple have all been kicked back to February on Amazon.it (which has been pretty good with dates). I thought it was a little unusual that so little was being left for Wave 4/5. This way it is 4 vehicles and 3 figures split across two Waves which isn't bad.

Regular Astroblast is Wave 3, because he is already out in some regions. And we know about Nightfall.

Any word on wave 3 vehicles being included at gamestop this saturday? I heard wave 3 superchargers are arriving but I really wanna save some more money

I would go back and check the store later this evening if you can. Sometimes TRU gets shipments on the DAY OF release. That happened to me with the Wave 2 figures. I wasted an hour at the store in the morning, only to find out the store later received the new figures on a truck that afternoon.

Toys R Us in Cincinnati Ohio had many of each vehicle. Coupled with the $20 off any order of $40 or more was a good deal.

Just stopped by gamestop to get Adventure Time Finn and Jake Investigations and saw the W3 Skylanders, dint get them because I already had them,
