Been looking at #skylanders and people are saying the hunt is on , lots of websites reporting its out. If its not out yet it will be very very soon from the sounds of it

i hope

I'm going to my local TRU tomorrow as soon as I get out of class. Fingers crossed.

my entire body will be crossed for u

My TRU said they were informed that they were getting Skylanders tomorrow, but I don't know if its wave 4.

tomarrow, go to TRU and beat the crud out of them till they give u wave 4

I wouldn't say Twitter in itself is a reliable source- any employees retweeting that or is this just a rumor?

Just want to be sure before I run out, pfff.

Can't say if it is reliable , just saying what the word is over there, no one has comfirmed they got one but rumor is they are over there. Type in #skylanders and read for your self

my tru said that there getting some on wednesday in australia but i dont think it will be wave 4 because the new figures usually come out in america first

Hm, I don't know if it's enough to make me go into the store, kind of seems like reactions to the press release, guess I'll think about it, pfff.

L-trigger happy came out in Canada first I beleive

Visited TRU today, and ran into the delivery guy at store opening and he said nothing on Monday, but he'll be back tomorrow and will know if he'll have any coming in for his Thursday delivery. But he couldn't confirm anything for shipments via UPS. For me it isn't a huge issue. I work about 5 minutes away from TRU and I can run down at store opening to find out. If I see anything, I will post news. So far where I live it's been pretty dry collecting the last few weeks. I also noticed at my Walmart that they removed the section in their store where they hang the singles and put something else there. This tells me there may not be anymore at Walmart for awhile. Good Luck to those hunting this week!

Looks like wave 4 is hitting ebay - so it must be out somewhere.

All of the ones I see are for preorders.

oh... great news....

Not out on the west coast in Seattle either...3 or 4 are not to be seen...last I saw any was a week ago and it was all the common ones. Sigh. I heard Thursday at TRU...so will check again each day till they are there...

Wave 3 isn't fully out where I live yet!

^Nor me!

Plus, Twitter didn't look like it, it looked more like the whole "I'm playing Skylanders" "Look what is out soon!" kinda thing

REPORT: No Wave 4 at my local TRU today. Though I did finally get Legendary T-Happy for my brother. Interesting note: 60 percent of the Skylanders section was Legendary Trigger Happy. I got there just as the guy was stocking.

Good sign of the stock for Wave 4 when it finally hits.

^ I'm having the same luck with the Toys'R'Us in Everett Mall Way and all of the stores near Lake Stevens. It doesn't seem like Washington State is keeping up with new stock. If you find any Cynders or Legendary Trigger Happys, please let me know if you have the time. Thanks =)

If Wave 4 were really out, I think we would see it on Ebay. Nothing on there yet for Zook, Lightning Rod, or Dragons Peak.

Yea...I'm not sure whether or not to search. We haven't heard of anyone seeing them yet.

Don't go searching just for them. If you are in the store looking for something else/buying something else, then just go and take a quick look.

We were looking at laptops the other day at Currys and Comet, and decided to have a quick look at the gaming section where we saw the DT triple pack

I'll call my TRU today to see. They get their trucks on Wednesday.

I doubt Wave 4 is out. There's nothing on ebay for any of the Champions from that Wave. There's a couple of pictures of packaged Dragon's Peak, but they're all listed as pre-orders.

Here is what I learned today: They won't get them in until 3/21/2012 in my store in Everett, WA. This was posted in front of their display:



Sorry if the pic is huge.

ALL?

Well damn, I should have just waited then.

That's sad. Look at the fine print. Quantities limited. I am convinced Activision is creating a shortage to create demand. However, in this case, it will backfire, where it succeeds for others.

Yeah, I am wondering the same thing. Walmart has pulled their display section altogether in my store. Also, Target here is bare still. We get them at Fred Meyer too, but last was the Crypt and that's all that came in. Gamestop said they get 2-3 small shipments every week, but the lady there checked inventory and their stores have NONE in the entire US right now based on her search. So yeah, it looks like they are holding back shipments here till the 21st for the release of wave 4. They will probably do one gigantic delivery and then replenish the supply that has been limited of late. They are definitely creating a buzz. I don't think it's a bad thing to create hype. I am enjoying the hunt none the less. My wife is gone for 18 months, so I have time to do some shopping on a day to day basis. I will continue to give updates in my area. Gonna check again Thursday just to see. I figure if I go a whole week and nothing, it's safe to say they have run dry for awhile.

*shrug*

That may not be enough time.

It won't backfire and they know this. Many people want the characters still left.

I want to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they're cutting costs by limiting the stock.

TRU in Illinois/Missouri are releasing Legendary Trigger Happy and Dragon's Peak this saturday 3/11/12 at 10am. i have 2 to 3 people at key locations to secure mine.

Guess I will be hitting the TRU Saturday. Think I'll try the other 2 stores first in my area other than the one posting nothing till the 21st. I feel like the people working at TRU have absolutely no clue 95% of the time...and they guess as much as we do.

I am getting tempted to just suck it up an pay the extra bit of money for the few I want off Amazon and Craigslist and then hunt down the new ones. Half the fun is the scoring them!

My TRU gets a truck tomorrow so I'm going for 10when they open in hopes that there will be new stuff therenthis time because their shelves are empty now

If they didn't say "quantities limited," angry soccer moms would threaten to sue the store because a paper sign lied to them.

Let's hope this is so, and I have my fingers crossed

Well, ook ia out somewhere,
Playing the webgame as I type this, and a zook player is there.

Probably a rental. I rented Sunburn, so I could see where he sits in the lair.

makes sense,
so he's been release in the webgame as well.
okee.

Yeah, as well as Lightning Rod.

Lightning rod looks creepy. For some reason he reminds me of a creeper.

Creeper? He looks like a child napper!
His pose in the character movie has his hands outstretched and his arm is reaching out in his stock art.

Hide yo kids, hide yo wife.

0H MY GOD!!!
THATS HILARIOUS!!!!!

Interesting pic that was posting "saying come back on March 21". hmm.... 1st day of Spring is March 20th. Wish I knew what was the date as I am getting tired of phoning and running around for nothing and that is 2 weeks away!!

Oh hopefully they will come out this week because ill be in Mexico then.
:/

Yea because its just the picture from Geekdad.

Def a rental. I wish u could blpck people from getting on your skyland. If your name is Cosmo Griffinshadow then get the F off my island and go play with your rented skylanders somewhere else.

Same sign that xerokills saw at our local ToyRUs in PA. Employee said they have figures in back, but are waiting until 3/21 to release them in a "big event".
