Funny part was I waited yesterday and got nothing.. Today there was no one there and no limits... Shaking my head at Tru and their dumb policies...

Nice. I'm glad to hear other ones have them out. Honestly, that's a much better deal. Even if you already have Cynder, you could at least resell it.

Well...nothing here in Everett and Lynnwood, WA. Contacted both and did get confirmation that DP is Sunday at both stores. I'm sure the scalpers all know this by now. So lets just get there early and hope there is limits on quantities you can buy.

As far as I know the stores in my area are only selling one Dragons Peak per family. I believe other people have posted the same thing is going on in their area stores. I would be inclined to believe that they will do it in WA also. I plan on showing up between 6 and 630 to wait outside the store. By the way I used to be stationed in Everett. I commissioned the USS Shoup DDG 86 bACK IN 2001. I was on there from 2001 to 2004.

I almost stopped in today just because my TRU usually gets trucks in on Thursdays. But I didn't. Oh well. I'll get it when I get it. I'm not going to go out of my way for this stuff any more.

I like this game, but if my 7-year old wasn't really into it, I would be out of the Skylander business. I'm spent.

Stopped my TRU today just to see if they were holding out on us (LOL). The only thing in the store today were a bunch of singles of Hex and 2 of Chop Chop.

I feel the same way. Yesterday was just to much effort. I showed up at the same TRU multiple times under different pretenses and promises and it always seemed to end with a verbal confrontation with the same two associates. I didn't enjoy being called an ebayer or being told if I really wanted two action figures I should have let my kids skip school like others did. TRU put me in a position yesterday where I had top choose Zook or LRod my daughter wanted Zook and my stepson LRod. They basically made me decide right there at the toy counter who I loved more. I told the kids I got nothing yesterday but have a Zook sitting in my car. My step son isn't talking to me right now because he rightfully assumes that if I had kept him out of school he wuld have gotten the skylander he wanted. I do not like TRU imposing its morals and beliefs on my family.
I know if I show up on Sunday early enough I can get a Sunburn but I am not sure if I want to go through that again especially if it involves me possibly having to bring the kids to ensure I can get a LRod if they have them and they impose the one per guest limit again. The most hostile part of 3/21 as far as I was concerned was TRU staff and not potential scalpers.

I am with you guys on being in it for the kids...BUT...my son is 6, I got legendary trigger happy on Sunday, and dragon's peak yesterday. He played a little, but nothing near the excitement level I had expected. I think all this waiting, and shortage of supply, has turned the kids off of the game! He used to be so excited about skylanders...at this point I practically have to beg him to play it!!

Mine had a lot of Eruptor/Chop Chop/Bash, and I'm pretty sure my eye caught a Prism Break (so the Prism Break/Boomer/Voodood)

Cool. I ask because at the same time this one Amazon.com scalper posted the new triple pack with Lightning Rod, they also claimed to have instock, the Camo/Ignitor/Warnado triple pack. It lead me to believe that those were in the latest wave triple packs, and the only way to currently get Warnado and Camo.

None at TRU in southeastern Mass... What's even worse... The guy said the only triple packs they got in were the DP adventure packs... and they sold out of them yesterday!?!? smilie

Guess there is no point fighting crowds on Sunday morning. Will have to drive to the RI TRU I guess!
