I found Empire of Ice pack at my local Best Buy in South Dakota. They also had a handful of the other two adventure packs. But no triple or single character packs. Target and Walmart had nothing.

WOW it seems like best buy is definitly the place to look. I checked the map and all but the ones bought in California are walmart.
And if you look at the pattern they are making there way across the way. Hopefully shouls see them in canada in the next day or so. Hopefully |

Driving to Denver today, PURELY to look at Skylanders. I will resort to extreme measures if I have to. When all else fails, I don't.

Target didnt get any this morning. Bad news for me as this means nothing is supposed to arrive at the store until monday. Boooooooo!
@ 10 I get to call TRU & BB in the hopes I have to go out and get gas and drive like a bat out of hell.

Add me to the list of those that purchased Empire of Ice at Walmart. Stopped on my way to work this morning and they had two Empire of Ice, two Pirate and two Crypt packs. I only bought the one Empire of Ice since I have the other two. They only had the original single packs though. I'm in Iowa City, IA.

Hi I'm new here, but i just wanted to post and tell you in yesterday in the Albany NY area i went out searching for figures. I went to TRU, BB, Gamestop, and walmart and all the places had the older figurines but gamestop which is the first time I've seen that many stores with that many packs since before Christmas. Also Best Buy had both of the older adventure packs which makes me think they had the new ones in too, but i didn't ask or anything thing

New poster here on the board but I've been reading it for a while but wanted to share for those looking for Wave 3.
I hit the jackpot at Walmart last night. I'm in Indianapolis, IN metro area on the southside for those tracking locations. Picked up Wave 3: Empire of Ice Adventure Pack(Slam-Bam) and the Wave 3: 3-pack with Whirlwind,Double Trouble, and Drill Sergeant. I also lucked out and was able to grab two other three packs: The 3-pack with Stealth Elf and also the 3-pack with Flameslinger. I've been looking for both Stealth Elf and Flameslinger for a while. Oddly enough my Walmart didn't have any single packs at all. So I'm going to cancel my Amazon order for the Wave 3 3-pack but retain the order for single pack Cynder. I only showed the kids the Empire of Ice pack and Stealth Elf for now. My daughter has been asking about Stealth Elf since we got the game so she was super excited. My boy really liked Slam Bam and we played the Empire of Ice level before bed tonight. Pretty cool. Oh and Walmart also had restocked the other two Adventure Packs: Pirate Seas and Darklight Crypt as well.

Just picked up an Empire of Ice set at Gamestop at 107 East 14th Street, NY, NY. (across from Best Buy) They had just received the shipment and two more of them. They also had some restocked figures and sets from the last wave. I should have paid more attention, but I remember seeing Bash, Drobot and the 3 pack with Stealth Elf (that was the only 3 pack they had and I believe they had 3).
The other GS on 14th (West of that one) and the one on 6th Ave around 21st Street had no Skylanders, and neither did the Best Buys on 14th and 23rd streets.

I bought an Empire of Ice this morning at Target where I live (Phoenix, AZ area)! yea! It was the last one, I think the electronics guy said they only had 2 to begin with. But I called and/or checked with 4 other Targets, 4 GameStops and 3 WalMarts....and nothing. Oh and I called Best Buy who got a shipment in last night, but there were no Skylanders on it. I'm excited to get my hands on the EoI, but will be glad when I can see some more individuals and 3 character packs. At this point Target and Best Buy won't even potentially get anything else until Monday, all the GameStops keeps telling me they are not expecting anything until some time next week. Guess I'll be pounding the floor at WalMart all weekend. Good luck everybody.

I found Empire of Ice and the Double Trouble 3 pack at the Walmart in Alexandria VA. They were just unpacking the boxes. But they only had 2 boxes (6 adventure packs AND 6x3 packs which means ONLY 2 each of the wave 3 packs). I only bought one of each. Left the other 2 for the next guy that comes by. No single packs though.

I think it depends on the store. This is what I have learned from the sales people I have talked to. You should probably check with the people in your area: Target- receives shipment trucks on M W F. They unload and stock some things before the store opens, but otherwise all stocking the shelves occurs in the morning and is usually done by 9-9:30am. So check Target early. I got my EoI at 9am. I had to go back to that Target later in the day (around 11am) and everything they had gotten in was gone. Gamestop- receives truck deliveries between 10am-12:30pm. Don't know what specific days. They told me that by 11am every day they would know what they had and have it out. So check Gamestop between 10-11am Best Buy- gets trucks on M and Th. Don't know what times, yesterday (Thursday) the truck came around 6pm, they told me to check with them around 7pm...but they hadn't received any Skylanders. So at least check with Best Buy on M and Th to find out when their trucks are arriving. WalMart- I think this one is the wild card. They receive trucks every day, at different times in the day so they might stock in the morning or afternoon or late at night. I do think that a lot of stocking occurs late at night or early am, so check 9-10pm and/or as early as you can get there in the morning. I don't know if this info varies per region or not, so it's best to talk to your local people. WalMart employees seem to be the most vague/uninformed though. I think most people are getting their stuff when the stores open, or in the case of WalMart even late at night...but I think it has varied.

Well, went to see Beauty & the Beast with the kids tonight and we got there a little early. So we hit up the gamestop in the mall. After being told rather spitefully that I should have been there this morning, I found that they had 2 EoI in and sold right away.

For the people who are running to these stores... check their websites first. Best Buy in particular has a very comprehensive and accurate search function that will let you know what's in stock and where, updated automatically when the product is scanned. Target has this too, and even Toys R Us to a lesser degree. No need to waste gas, and I highly doubt the stores would have a product the website isn't aware of, since it would mean nobody had scanned it for sale yet...
