So we know there will be several 'exclusive' Skylanders out there. How many do we know about right now?

Whirlwind (Tesco, UK | Target, US)
Legendary Pack (Toys R Us, US, UK)
Drill Sergeant (Big W, Aus | Sams Club US | Asda / Smyths Toys, UK)
Dark Spyro (3DS Version, all countries)
Darklight Crypt (Toys R Us, UK, US)
Volcanic Vault Battle Arena (Best Buy, US | GAME, UK)

Any others? I've been particularly trying to find out about the Legendary pack outside the US, but as usual the UK TRU know nothing.

Whirlwind will be sold at Target in the US?

Don't forget Dark Spyro, who is (as far as we know right now) exclusive to the 3DS version of the game (at least his figure is).

But is Whirlwind really going to be sold at Target US??? I thought it was only Tesco.

Whirlwind is going to be sold exclusively at Target in the US. See?

Ohhh, I heard that she was exclusive at Tesco only

Tesco for the UK, Target for the US... A figure can't be exclusive to a country =/

Indeed..

Can't get drill sargeant in North america? I am sad... I wasn't pumped fro him, but I was drawn to the creepy guy. Hm, odd, learning that I can't have him makes mw want him just a little more.

You might still be able to get him, NSL. He's probably a Toys R Us exclusive or they'll put him in a package or something.

Could always torrent it- *sniped*

It'll take a few months before anyone figures out how to emulate the 3DS software, let alone the Skylanders game (which is unique and may not be of interest to the emu/ROM community). But this topic is about the toys, not the game. Personally, I don't care if I've got Dark Spyro in the game, but I'm somewhat interested in the actual figure.

He'll probably come out eventually. Just like Whirlwind, who was announced in UK before the US, but now she'll be available in Target.

Seeing how the US doesn't have Tesco, some other store had to pick her up, so we aren't left out of the loop. Target did that for us.

hay i have a question..when skylanders game and toys releases, will they be sold ONLY on toys r us or will they be sold on any average game store?

I think it said there will be SOME exclusives to Toys R us, not all. But I'm pretty sure where I live there isn't any Toys R us stores... So that's kinda confusing...

by the way, you can still get the dark spyro figure anyways. wait a few months after it comes out, then look on ebay or craigslist and get the dark spyro. The figure is sold only with 3ds, but it will still work on other systems. (right?)

http://www.toysrus.com/product...ductId=11953043 theres for the USA one, darklight crypt has some extras or something.

And there is NO way im paying 20 dollars for that. Better go down first. Im gonna be like a pokemon person: "gonna catch em all" except different. Im gonna get them all from the store, then buy dark spyro from ebay. Since im getting the PS3 copy i cant get dark spyro.

The UK Toys R Us site has finally updated to show what they're doing; Darklight Crypt and the Legendary Skylanders are exclusive to them in the UK.

YES. Thanks for that!

Will Lightning Rod be an exclusive???He's one of my favourites and I'm bit worried, because there are no screenshots, no vids, no figures for sales, not even stickers or posters. Does somebody know something about him??will he be avalaibel at the launch day of the game???

Activison will be releasing the other figures gradually, according to numerous stores in my area. GAME have told me that there will be 3 waves in total.

Did they know about estimated dates???

Nope, they haven't been told D:

There isn't a Toys R Us where I live, so...Toyworld I suppose..

^ Same, but I don't think Toyworld would sell Skylanders...

If not Toyworld, then certainly the Warehouse. They have everything...

That's what I was thinking too! Hopefully they will...

^I just saw a stand for Skylanders in EB Games. You can pre-order the game there!
I was looking around, saying, "Aw man, it doesn't look like they'll have it in..." but the stand was behind me the whole time...

^ you can also pre-order it from Mightyape its a NZ store (but its pretty expensive <.< )

It's also coming out in the Warehouse, thankfully. They won't be selling the PC version though, so I'll be depending on EB games and hoping they get it in.

For anyone in the UK Whirlwind is showing in stock now on Tesco Direct but Drill Sergeant isn't not showing up yet for stock on ASDA.
I just ordered Whirlwind and am going to collect her as the shipping isn't worth it (£6.99+£3.00(p+p).
In our Tesco it says the figure is ready to collect a day before release day.

Yeah, I saw that too. You can get the PC version from JB-Hi-fi. I'm pretty sure they have it cheaper than EB games.

^I did check both those shops out today, but I live too far away from JB-Hi-fi, so I'll just settle for EB Games. I've saved up $50...half the amount I need >.<

How much is it for sale at EB games? At the warehouse it is $119 on the day it releases

I believe it's about $130...I think.

I preo-orded from Toys R Us So...yeah take that

Whirlwind at Target? I have a Target near me. It's a Super Target. Just about like 3 minutes away.

^The Target we have in NZ just sells furniture...

Just called GAME in Denton, Manchester and they don't know anything about having the Volcanic Vault as an exclusive.

Anybody know which GAME store has the offer.

Seems that all the "avalible" Skylanders are playable on Skylanders Universe. Whats confusing is that Dino-Rang is playable, could we all have missed an exclusive somwhere?

I just saw the actual box today (couldn't buy it, but they were happy to show it to me). They said it should come seperately from the game itself, as they hadn't unboxed them yet. Perhaps try today? It should also be printed on the dummy boxes.
