Yes...I actually did. I'll post my set once I get my 3 adventure packs in the mail. That's all I have left to complete it. I could have most of set 3 done if I wanted to by now...the old waves have been cake to find. I even came across 2 sets of the prism break 3 packs today as well as all the adventure packs. But I am not doing a 3rd set. Though I could assemble it and sell it for a pretty penny I bet.

I do not want to go to TRU later today to witness the outcry of not enough Blue Bash figures. I can imagine the people at TRU coming home empty handed without the Blue Bash figures. I did not want to be one of those people. I just scored a Blue Bash Factory Sealed on ebay for $24.00 and it came with a LTH for $24.00 as well a total of $48.00 with shipping, so $24.00 a figure. I do not mind paying $24.00 for the Blue Bash figure because first of all if what they say is true that they only have made 4200 of these then the Supply and Demand will soar and same with the Value of which would add to my collection. I realize I did pay $24.00 for an LTH I guess that was the deal breaker that I got two figures. I will return one LTH to the store offsetting the $24.00. I wanted to get one because it would be much harder to win an auction after tomorrow when people come home empy handed. I couldnt turn down another LTH now I have three of those. I imagine they will make more Blue Bash's after awhile but for now Activision is having there fun with the supply and deman and it is nice to know I have a Blue Bash on the way. I hope this seller comes through I am not counting on much till I see it on my doorstep. Until then I hope they do have enough Blue Bashes for everybody to go around even though I took a gamble that they wouldnt.

Well unfortunatly I can't make it to Toys R Us today it looks like. My dad has a Physical and they are coming to our house so I actually had no choice Plus I am glad not to go have to witness the outcry. He felt bad so he was nice enough to buy it for me anyway. Just to say thank you dad! Even though I'm 29 he understands my hobbies because he is the same way! My Blue Bash is canadian from Montreal. Im going to have to try and get rid of the LTH somehow. Still good deal Blue Bash for $24.00. Most are going for $30-$40.

So...on a real note, just walked into one of my local stores that opens at 7am. I talked to them earlier in the week about Skylanders and they said, "We are holding them all for an April 1st event. So I went to other stores...and they said they knew nothing of an event. So I went back on a whim today and low and behold...they had the 3 packs of Zook, LR, Cynder. So I nabbed both. Which is awesome, as now I can send 1 3 pack to my nephew instead of giving him the singles. Which leaves me with 1 extra, that goes to a lady who I hooked up with a single lightning rod and said her neighbor needed one and she'd pay my costs for finding them. Feel like a scalper, but dang...they had a lot of figures on shelves today at Walmart, and my local Fred Meyer. So woot to that. Today has started out good.

WOW am I lucky or what! My dad's Physical ended early at 10AM so I went to Toys R us and I was able to nab a Blue Bash. That store said they only got 6. This is aweosme. I have two Blue bashes one coming from ebay unfortunatly. Now I can trade a Blue Bash for a Camo Wam Shell and Warnado! Unfortunatly some people were out of luck in Pontiac MI they only had 12. I went to the Southfield one! They had 6. I'm so happy!

I bought a Blue Bash this morning and, judging by the extremely limited quantity of them, I'm keeping mine safe and sound on my wall. There's no point in even opening it if it's no different in game and I already have normal Bash and L-Bash.

Madel-There actually is a significant difference in the game with Blue Bash he is so Powerful. I just leveled him all up and chose the tail path. You can play with them sealed you don't have to open them. I kept all mine sealed because of that reason. In fact that is the main reason why I bought this game.

I'd have to say it looks like Blue Bash is has the first several upgrades already in place, and maybe is leveled up a little. I didn't notice until my son had already been playing on Dragon's Peak so I'm not sure what level he was OOTB (mine is still in the box, but I digress).

Walked into Toys R Us yesterday looking for some new Lego Avengers sets, and what do I come across? A three-pack of Prism Break, Boomer and Voodood!! I was absolutely shocked. It was the only one they had, plus a ton of Legendary Trigger Happy single packs.
I FINALLY HAVE EVERY SINGLE RELEASED SKYLANDER!! Well, except for the 'specially colored' ones. I really don't care for those though since they are no different in game. Just Camo, Warnado and Wham-Shell to go. I can't wait till I'm finished, until Giants comes out that is. By the way, I already had Boomer, which maks this one an extra. If anyone is looking for Boomer, let me know. ![]()

^oooh...you gotta do this one. Google Rainbow Unicorn Farts. I love changing desktop wallpapers at work on my coworkers. They now know to always lock their computers, which is company policy anyways. Mine is a awesome Skyrim background at work...imagine if Skylanders was as in depth as Skyrim. That'd be messed up. Another great prank...take a piece of black electrical tape and put it on the bottom of the lazer mouse. They will spend 5 minutes trying to figure it out before they realize it's covered. Another fun one is take a screen shot of their desktop and make it their desktop background, then move all their icons around on the screen. They'll get totally confused when they try to click. Or you could always do the cracked screen wallpaper. That's always fun.

Xero-What I want to know is how many people did not get a Blue Bash today that wanted one? I bet when people saw it in Toys R Us ad they did not go when it opened. I think a lot of people just assumed this would be another LTH, but perhaps they did not do the proper research. Just seems that there may be a lot of people that still want the Blue Bash from my research this afternoon.

Above. I think there will be a lot of demand for him. People tend to want what they can't get. I strictly got him because I plan to have this collection for my children. And I love to have everything. Now I need to get my hands on a 3 pack of the legendaries. I won't chase the gold ones or the silvers or pearls. I think if I did, I'd want the pearl Hex. She's cool looking. But not at those prices.
Opal, yes...that is super handy...works on images too. Great at trying to read the fine print on things.

To AboveSkylands:
I'm sure that a great amount of people missed out on the Blue Bash event. The quantities are very low if not the lowest of all characters (not including special ones such as golds and silvers), and if you weren't one of the first in line, you would most likely miss out on one due to tickets being handed out to kids and other family members.

Opal-I am glad I got my Blue Bash at Toys R Us today and did not rely on my ebay purchase. My Toys R Us did not hand out tickets because there was nobody in line. The manager was very good about control. I was buying my Blue Bash first and after I completed my transaction he began handing them out to people as they came in after me. I was the first one there and I got there at 10 AM. I was worried all night last night about my ebay order for Blue Bash as well. I still will have to wait and see what transpires with that. The seller has 100% so I hoping he will be easy to communicate with. Overall Glad to have a Blue Bash in my collection regardless of what happens with my ebay order.

Thank you Opal. BTW The ebay seller said he would refund me shortly. I am thrilled I got a Blue Bash today and only had to pay $5.00 for it thanks to the Toys R US Gift Card from DP. It's still going to be interesting to see how the market increases the Blue Bash next week and into the future. I am down to the final three Camo, Wam Shell and Warnado that I need to complete my collection. Of course the Gold and Silvers, and Metallic Cynder and Pearl Hex would be a nice bonus somewhere in the future.

I have a question. I have my Skylanders starter kit for the Wii. I was thinking of gettiing it for the PS3 like Therealklanked did. Will I have to do the whole game over again for the PS3, or can I save my contents from the Wii and transfer them to the Ps3 version? Although it would be awesome to do the game over again with the characters fully upgraded. It would be a breeze! Im not sure when the stores will be getting the last three figures All I know is that im thinking they want to sell the old stuff first or as much as they can before they release them.

@ AboveSkylands : Yes and No. Your character levels and "gold" will follow whichever console you play it on. But, the actual progression in the Storyline of the game will have to start from scratch. On the brigthside, your characters will kick THAT much more tail from the get go. =)

Kuribofett- Nice Find! Seems like the employees that know about the game snatch those up around here in MI. What store did you find it at what state? Somebody found a Gold Drill Sergeant in a Tripple pak at my TRU. Was some kid so at least his mind isnt brainwashed with ebay yet. Im going to Target in a few minutes so wish me luck!
