darkSpyro

Welcome, people. Thanks for joining the G.M.W.S.O.N.A.C.

Today, we are striving to find the elusive Wham Shell. Spotted in Australia, but not in North America, we strive to find out why. Even better, we try to track down and find our final Skylander buddy, who has gone M.I.A. due to the overabundance of Camo/Warnado assortments.

My brothers, we must track down our buddy, buy him up, and bring him home. He has a family and kids. We must report to the wifey, that Wham Shell was found safe and sound, not that he was K.I.A.

Brothers, let's find our elusive buddy. Let's bring him home.

*salutes*

Okay, for real. WHY IS HE OUT IN AUSTRALIA, BUT NOT NORTH AMERICA?

I don't want to believe any theories, that he is a timed exclusive to a store. No store has broke info about a timed Wham Shell exclusive.

For the sake of completing the collection, I don't really (okay, maybe I do, but it's not priority) give a rats *** about crystal Wham Shell. I JUST WANT WHAM SHELL TO FILL THIS MISSING SLOT!

WOE IS ME, GUYS!

*someone shouts* TOUGHEN UP, SOLDIER!

*flexes*

Okay, for real, my brothers. Let's find Wham Shell.

well why is Camo and Warnado not showing up in australia while Wham Shell is?

So, Camo and Warnado haven't been spotted in AU yet?

My son is on Skylanders Universe. He says he sees a guy running around with an unlocked Wham Shell. I don't know if that game is region specific, but if it is, and us Americans only play with Americans, then someone in NA has Wham Shell.

............................Dude it's just a toy. It isn't essential. You won't die if you don't find it right away. Toy collecting isn't that important.

I am just mad that any of wave 5 is out already. I was looking forward to waiting a while to get Camo but now I am in the NEED NOW mode.

Also I think they just wanted most of the countries to feel like they got exclusive skylanders and that is why they only released wham shell so far in Australia. It will eventually come to the US though.

Ok we now wham shell is coming so let's not get crazy. I mean be happy we got two. Anyways wave 5 is out and I'm happy cuz this whole going to store, disappointments hong is getting on my nerves.

This is the perfect time to get crazy.....IT'S ALMOST OVER!!!!!1111!!!!!

Maybe Whammy wants to have a barbie. Hope there not eating crab legs....

EL to the OH to the EL! Who really cares if wham-shell is out...I think everyone will live if they have to wait awhile to get it. Take a few deep breaths and let everyone who is trying to get Camo and Warnado do their thing. At this point, Wham-shell isn't here. Maybe the end of the month...but you just got what? 24 of the new 2 figures. And you're already trying to dig up info on Wham-shell. Why not just contact Toys for Bob or Activision and talk to their offices and see if you can get down to the nitty gritty with them. Man...overcompensate much?

but surely GameMaster69 you should just be posting your begging message on the other forum you have moved to where your wonderfulness is appreciated.

you have after all already clearly implied that the general inhabitants of darkspyro aren't worthy of your help as they don't kiss up and help you enough.

We must not think like that, brothers. HE IS ALIVE!

I am mailing customized Crestation finding gear to each and every G.M.W.S.O.N.A.C member.

this is agreed. wham shell to go.

You haven't meet many toy collectors, have you?

Those hater brothers are lost souls, who gave up on the cause.

We must press on, brothers. Wham Shell is to come back in one piece. He will not be the feast of that evil Barbie and Ken. WHAM SHELL WILL NOT BE CRAB LEGS!

no skylander sea food. never!

Come home Wham SHell.......come home. These are the last 3. So I will get them any means necessary. Ebay, Wal Mart whatever. I just want to be done with this collecting. I'll see you guys this fall for Giants. I just need Wham Shell. AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

I'll just wait until he comes around on Amazon for an affordable price, then see what happens by then

Grats, brother Drill. But, you must support the cause. Our brother, Wham is out there. You, along with brother Trentd, Zap, D-rex, and others must help in tracking down our brother and bring him home.

His fellow Skylanders are missing him.

I've been thinking about this one. There are four six to case distributions of skylanders.

Wave 3: Cynder, Drill Sergeant, Whirlwind, Flame Slinger, Chop Chop, Double Trouble

Wave 4.0: Zook, Lightning Rod, Ignitor, Stealth Elf, Bash, Sonic Boom

Wave 4.5: Boomer, Hex, Wrecking Ball, Drobot, Stump Smash, Eruptor

Wave 5: Camo, Warnado, Prism Break, Voodood, Zap, Dino-Rang

Now let's do the math. There are only 25 single packs (not counting LTH). I just listed 24 different Skylanders currently in distribution. They are unlikely to release singles of the other legendaries, Dark Spyro, the 4 adventure pack figures, Gill Grunt, Trigger Happy and Spyro.

This means that there are no other singles that would logicaaly be packaged with Wham-Shell. Unless he is going to be in a case full of variants this indicates that he will be packed six to a case like store exclusives. However its odd no one has claimed they will carry him if this is true.

Know what is even less important ? Preaching and acting self-important over others hobbies on the internet.

while walking past the fresh fish district in little china town, I thought i saw him. "Wham Shell, is that you?" I ran up to him with open arms.
Alas this was a mistake. Next thing i knew i was hugging a very wet very smelly VERY AGITATED king crab. I wont go into details but i will say i was badly in need of a new shirt, and a few bandages...

WAIT!

I personally opened the wave 5 cases at my local Walmart. It went like this -

- 1 Camo
- 1 Warnado
- 1 Eruptor
- 1 Wrecking Ball
- 1 Zap
- 1 Dino Rang

I didn't see a case variation with Voodood or Prism Break inside.

EDIT: As for Wham in a case of six. They could do like 2 to a case, like the recent cases with 2 Hex inside. That, or they could just put him and 5 other landers in there.

EDIT 2: I find it odd, that the order I placed for the remaining Skylanders back in November, on walmart.com, is what gave me the UPC's for Camo and Warnado, but not Wham Shell. Wham Shell is THE ONLY Skylander they don't have a UPC for.

I don't think that means he's a store exclusive here in the US, but I do think it means he hasn't been released?

I AM CHECKING THE UNDERWATER UTOPIA AROUND AUSTRALLIA! If I see a hungry shark, looks like I will be in DEEP TROUBLE! (ba dum,tshh)

Interesting. Maybe we need to trade. Grab me two Wham Shells, and I will send you a Camo and Warnado, lol.

This is madness!

I would kill to trade, but I dont have wham shell. I live in The u.s but my birthday is coming up and I have wanted Camo and Warnado from day 1. Good luck to me, All my local stores get is Wrecking Ball, And Stealth elf. I will keep my eye out though.

I talked to a Wal-Mart associate over the phone who claimed they were opening up case 5 while we were talking and that was the breakdown. This could mean I was lied to... or activision is officially just messing with us.

You have claimed before 4.5 has 2 Hexes in it. I opened a box myself the other day and it had only 1 Hex and a Boomer (something that did not fit with other information I had gotten about wave 5). I wonder if the case packs are not as "locked in" as they were in earlier shipments.

I am guessing that as well.

Located at California.

He has been located, my brethren. Now we must bring him home.

LEAVE NO MAN BEHIND!

Thanks for the intel, Fireballz. You are due for a promotion upon Wham Shell coming home.

Yeah another figure yet to be found. this hunt for the new ones is not so much fun anymore but on a side note i do have my blue bash coming from Toys r us.com dont know what to do with him yet since i gotone in the stores on sunday just in case my order got canclled

I would by it but i don't have enough, by a long shot.

So...Warnado and Camo are land and air...it would make sense that Wham-Shell comes from the sea to the coasts first...seeing as it's in California. I'll be on the lookout for all 3 tomorrow I guess. But WA is dry as I speak...and I know more have to be there soon as Walmart shelves are starting to thin out...which means incoming RESTOCK!

OOOOOoooo, burn! HATE-HATE-HATE-HATE!

I wonder where the guy got it. This could be that crucial info that could either back Tash's theory that it is a store exclusive, or we can all breathe a sigh of relief, knowing we can find him at any store.

I stated on the Facebook page, that I hope Activision didn't pull some silly stunt and make it so Wham Shell replaces Zap in every few boxes of wave 5.

That would be shady.

It's not so much hate as it is disrespect.

Bah, this sucks. I opened the wave 5 cases, but only paid attention to the top of the packaging, looking for Warnado and Camo. I am truly wondering if there is a chance they packed a single Whem Shell within every few boxes of wave 5? I should have made sure.

Why are you opening cases? Who are you schmoozing to get this kind of access?

It's not so much schmoozing, as it is respect.

It's not so much schmoozing, as it is respect.

You must come across totally different in the real world (or you really ARE schmoozing), because I can't imagine letting you and your arrogance in the back room of a TRU store that I worked at (if I were to have such a job).

I don't think it was in the back Hime. I've opened cases in person on the floor. You just have to catch them at the right time. Plus if you grease and schmooze enough people, they'll hook you up because what it comes down to is people think it's cool if they're helping "hook someone up". GM isn't all game...he just likes to pretend he is. He's just beaten down every door he can to get what he wants. When you sit around doing jack all day long...you have plenty of time to hit the phones and pavement making connections.

I'm only arrogant in the eyes of those who blindly attack me.

Just like another here said, I am a totally different person on Neogaf. I'm also very different on Facebook, Gamefaqs, and yes, real life.

Just look at how some act on this site. Others don't blame me. Heck, I don't blame myself.

I'll put it like this, Hime. I have bad friends in real life, and I have good friends in real life. I find it oddly coincidental, that my good friends know how to have fun, but act very mature while doing so. They believe in God, and doing things that are technically wrong, they won't do. These are people I take seriously. If they have advice, they don't attack. If I get more Skylanders than them, they don't like schoolgirls (this is more sarcasm really; they don't give a **** about Skylanders period).

My bad friends, however, they like to fabricate excuses. One of my friends backstabbed me over a chick (bias), because it's in his mind that if he's in a relationship with someone, that someone is always right more than anyone else, despite her being wrong. It had happened before, and I let it go. Another friend, basically admits to robbing me in 2001. It is indirect, but if I told anyone here the story, they would know it was him. He also happens to brag on Facebook, how he was nice enough to help a lady get her wallet back, she had lost at a store. He takes 40 dollars from it. Why? He said, "that's basically to pay me for my time in being nice to take it back to her, and my gas." He did it without asking. What's that called?

I have another friend. He thinks it's okay for people to watch him and his girl on a webcam. He lets his close - personal - friends see it, because it's freedom of expression. I asked him, you don't find that disrepectful in any way, he said "nope."

Point is, those bad friends are always trying to give me advice. They have even tried to attack me one minute, while playing nice the next.

My good friends have just been nice and respectful, and don't find every reason to go on the attack.

In life, should a person trust the opinions of thieves, people who lack respect in themselves, or foolishly attack people over who gets more toys before anyone else? NAHHHHH! Actually, some of the opinions, come in the form of attacks, which isn't very mature, so... However, a person should trust the judgment and advice of those who have a good head on their shoulders. People who don't look for reasons to get their undies in a bunch, over some of the reasons I've seen displayed here, or in real life.

Basically, to sum it up, people here can attack, like my bad friends can make lame excuses for all the wrong they do. Does one take it seriously, or know that the wrong, or idiotic attacks are born of something, and one should just let it go, because they're nothing more than harmless words from people behind keyboards? The latter. Should one take a person seriously, who knows how to give an opinion without attacking? Yep. Should one take a person seriously, who you know has a good head on their shoulders, by being mature in situations that don't even constitute being immature? Yep.

The latter happens here about 99% of the time. But I guess we are all in agreeance. It's due to this being a kids games, and this site being devoted to said kids game. Only sometimes, the adults can act more childish than my 9-year old.

Can't believe I wasted my time typing this up, but I did, so...

Sorry for the double post, but I will put it another way.

Look at someone here who is assuming, I pretend to help.

Do you take the advice of someone who throws out a blatant assumption, or childish attacks, or do you laugh and feel sorry for them? The latter, especially when you have proof of just some you have helped out -



By the way, I wonder whatever happened to Terranakari. Haven't seen her around here in a while.

Another thing I learned in life, and Casey Anthony makes for a good example, is that sometimes people will attack you for what they are really guilty of.

Take for instance joe-blow-assumer. They like to say "he only pretends to help." Why? Because maybe they never help others, despite wanting help, so they attack the person who actually helps others, while they say, "I'd rather post info. That's helping."

People do it all the time. It's a simple observation. When Casey Anthony was on trial, she tried to divert the guilt of what she did to her daughter, onto everyone in her family. Her dad, her mother, her own brother. She tried so hard, but everyone knew the truth.

She wanted everyone to look like the bad guy, but herself. Same rules apply throughout humanity. Same rules apply here.

That, or it is what others here say it is, jealousy. It's all childish actions in my eyes.

^ I see my name up there. :3 Thanks again for the L-Rod! I was able to finish off Wave 4 thanks to your help.

You're very welcome, Madel. Glad I could help.

I'll see if I can find you a Camo and Warnado, too. If you haven't found it before me that is.

If you run across any, I would be very grateful. I'd offer to try to find you something, but it seems your luck has been paying off as of late. Lol
