Well, someone did call Activision and they said that when the store has them, they sell them. Activision already shipped the figures (since multiple stores already have them), all we need to wait is for the shipments to arrive in stores, and for the stores to put them for sale.

Do you think any of the stores in canada or states have them but arent putting them out until a certain date?

I for one believe that. I seriously doubt that target didn't get any yet that is the only major retailer that hasn't had a report of any.

Is eb games the canadian version of gamestop?

Ah i see thanks for uploading that

They didn't have any of wave 3 in the stores around my area. Guess they haven't recived the sippings or something?

In case of Europe, tomorrow will show.

I dont know if Greece is any indication about Europe, but when I asked the 3 stores that brought skylanders at launch in Greece, they told me that they ll have new stock the first week of February (And ebay is really expensive, I guess I ll have to wait...)


P.S As most of you have figured out I am new here I ve been checking these forums since the release of Skylanders but I just registered

I don't know if this is old news or not but, has anyone seen this interview with the story writers
and developer

I had not seen those interviews before but now I know why this game is soo good. When you get the 2 best "kids" story tellers involved in a project, there is no way it wont be good. Turns out, whatever they touch, turns to gold. I hope they keep the same team together for the sequel.

//forum.darkspyro.net/spyro/viewposts.php?topic=44098

I'm just wondering if we are gonna make a topic about wave 3 for each country in the world =/ We should find a better way to gather the info for each country =/

if all the usa'ers could stick to one post it wouldn't be that bad really.. the rest of us are in the minority...

Well some of them are doing posts by states (not by country) and even by city =/ I'm starting to be a bit lost in all that. =/

I think we just need the USA information and the Europe one ( cause some people here in the forum live in Europe, like me ).

Be patient, the European findings wave is coming. It'll sweep the boards just like this.

shoot..i have to wait untill february to get cynder :C my game stop says the whole world is empty of skylanders

There will be a new topic for each mail amazon sends, each order that is shipped for each member and each new date we know.

Edit: Oh, and for each part on a figurine that is not of the same color of the others, for each suspect paint dot.

Okay, what is going on here?

Each topic made by users who just got a toy or something. 'My order arrived!!!', 'I got my Cynder toyzzz!!', or 'I can't find a Double Trouble toy!!!'.

It'll be nice when the hysteria is over, all the figures are released, and we can actually talk about the game. There's a lot of content that nobody even cares about due to the anticipation of new toys, but once it all settles, we'll have plenty of real topics to discuss. Granted, that'll be weeks... months away, now, but there will come a day when every post isn't about getting or waiting for new releases. For now, though, settle in for more release date speculation, trolls claiming to have Sunburn or Camo, and general annoyance, because it'll only get worse from here.

But....but...but I do have Camo and Sunburn.


LOL

I have LEGENDARY Sunburn and Camo. They're all gold, with silver detailing, and they DO appear that way in-game. But my dog ate my camera or something like that, so I can't show anybody them, but trust me, the truth is out there!...

Well, I trump you all as I have the new completely limited edition transparent Stealth Elf.

And, I have photo proof:



It is only available at one shop here in Oz, called The Gameplayer's New Clothes.

OMG i can see the photoshopping lines. Use the damn blur tool!

M$ Paint has no blur tool and if you think I was going waste any more time on my lame joke, then you are sorely mistaken, my friend.

It is not as if I really wanted it to look that realistic...

LOL, it still made me laugh, so it was a good joke my friend.

NOT SOLD IN STORES UNLESS YOU HIT THE STORES EARLY AFTER CALLING IN TO SEE WHEN THEY MIGHT GET THE SHIPMENT! This is a rough game we play, I found ebay the best way to get specific Skylanders. Search something like "Best Skylanders Characters" or "Skylanders Best Price". I got a 3 pack for 29.99 not bad when you consider how much time and gas has been spent looking in stores.

So... What's next?

Probably way too soon to ask, since the last wave only just came out and there's still more to come, but what do you think is next for Spyro?

With all the success of Skylanders and all with the younger target audience, I have a feeling they might continue using Spyro in Skylanders, though Activision hasn't made plans for a sequel yet.

EDIT:
Possible Skylanders sequel domain name revealed, under the name of Skylanders Giants.

http://fusible.com/2012/01/dom...landers-giants/

OOOOooooo
Already in the works; kinda suprising since they haven't even released all the Skylanders toys yet. (when can we expect Dragon's Peak?)
What do you think it'll be about with a name like that?

They may be talking about the Elder Elementals, the giants that are the most powerful of all Skylanders.

Activision recently confirmed that Dragon's Peak will be out this Spring, along with the remaining Skylanders.

Oh..

Hey, not that I dislike Skylanders, or Spyro IN Skylanders, but will he EVER have his own game again?!

Probably by a different developer in a few years?

If anything, Skylanders is making Spyro MORE likely to have another series of games, because it's made him a greater commodity than he's ever been. Old Spyro games were popular, don't get me wrong, but they never quite cracked the pop culture barrier the way Skylanders has. The character has become more commonly-known than ever, and there's no reason to suspect that they won't eventually greenlight a new game for him.

Well everytime I think of Spyro, the Classics just come straight to mind first before LoS and Skylanders, so I guess the Classic series has had more of an impact for me than any other series afterwards.

I am not a spyro fan and never was. I am here just to find out when the figures are released. What spyro really needs to sustain this popularity is a good, really good platformer that plays well on all platforms. This current "sucess" is only based on popularity of the figures. If the same buzz exists in a year, then this is the breakthrough game. If the buzz is gone, then you need that solid platformer. Something that can tie in to the mobile market so there is more exposure.

^This.

I don't agree. It's a game, I look at gameplay. Not what extras it has.

Skylander's sequal?

Yes.
I get to spend more hour's looking for more toy's!

At least Acti isn't trolling.

I was just about to post a comment on that

Still, I don't think they'd release a sequel this soon, especialy since we won't be expecting the rest of the Skylanders until Spring.

Then again, if I remember correctly, back when Skylanders was known as 'Spyro's Kingdom' it took awhile before they were done with the game despite the leaked name.

A sequel would be awesome though so hopefully there will be one

Skylanders could easily have Pokemon style endurance if they build on it with successive games and keep building the roster and moving the franchise forward. A sequel is a good start. Like every other collectible game before it (dating back to even Magic: The Gathering), you have to keep the ball rolling with new stuff to collect. As long as they keep the quality high, hopefully that is their plan.

Hi there, I'm new in this site I've visited this forum since Skylanders was announced and now I decided to take part of this site too. I was also the guy who discovered those beta images of the game (Darxae)

Talking about the sequel, well, I'm happy that they're making a new one: let's hope that Spyro will be there too (I hope also for a Crash cameo or as a playable character).

P.S. Sorry for my english, I'm italian.

I doubt if that will happen since you get Spyro with Skylanders in the first place, it would be a bit of a stupid move wouldn't it? Even if you were someone who has bought a bunch of characters only to find that they only work for one game.
