My prize from Frito Lay just arrived in the mail today and it is . . . . . Wrecking Ball!
Boomers and Wrecking Balls so far. That's oddly peculiar.

Boomers and Wrecking Balls are not too surprising...didn't someone claim to have received Dark Spyro though?

@Spyroflame0487:
Shipping partner is newgistics. They take the package from one of their hubs to another and then they drop them off at the appropriate post office, daily. The post office is only delivering them....and usually the day after they arrive in the building. I will look for those. Thanks for the info.

I know, I did want to customized the myself because I aint spending another $8-$10 just to paint. At least it was free, but I didn't actually think everybody who called would win, so I just dismissed it.

Oh god it saddens me to see another company using the most horrible delivery service partner there is. I wouldn't expect to see these arrive for a while for a lot of people. Newgistics is absolutely terrible and have the slowest service I've ever seen. I once ordered a wrestling figure from a site that uses them and it took over a month to arrive from the day it was sent. Yes you heard that a right over a month!!! |

I have found that companies with the word logistics, in some form in their name, is not very smart with deliveries. I had 3 large packages to be delivered to me and 1 of 3 shipped at diff time. It shipped by air to meet the other packages with good timing, BUT the "logistics" company could not put 1 and 2 together to make 3 packages on the same shipment.
I had to request shipment again as that package was apparently orphaned. GO logistics.

Certainly makes a lot of sense. They've made a surplus now of the older figures, and if stores are getting a ton of Boomers and Wrecking Balls (as it appears they are still), whatever stock this company got in is probably the same.

maybe they are just sending out the least popular ones first...
seewolf78, thank you for keeping a running tally. (also i won once on with a code card, and then many times on the 866 and 800 #s.) maybe ppl with code card wins are getting their first?

I have 3 flocked stumpy code card wins, and 2 random skylander code card wins....I have got nothing. My mom only called the 800 and 866 numbers, daily...and she got 2 randoms today. So that would not be true that they are filling code card wins first.

I had a feeling it would be nothing but the "Overstocked" less desirable characters, that is exactly why I didn't bother with the 866 "Random Figure" Number. I've got 2 boomers I bought myself and I hardly use them OR my wreckingball.
I only tried for the Flocked Stump Smash. It'll be nice to see someone get something OTHER than Boomer or Wrecking Ball, though I am not counting on it. I have a hard time believing someone actually won a dark spyro...thats a bit over the top.

they should have the skylanders that was in the picture on the random skylander page. cause im seriously gonna be pissed if i get all wrecking balls/boomers.
(stolen from the original thread) boomer, wrecking ball, hex, drobot, and prism break.

I haven't "scoured" the internet looking, but I can verify that in neither the Old Thread nor this thread contain anyone stating that they recieved a Dark Spyro. I read every post in both and there were a few posts that said it'd be nice, and I think one that said some guy got one, but no confirmed arrivals of a Dark Spyro prize in hand. Hopefully they are going to be sending something other than Boomers and Wrecking Balls for this (especially because they did show others in the "You're A Winner" pic). ... Now let's get some new contestants in this race tomorrow! Here's to The Power Of Positive Thinking!

I think they put a variety of SL in that picture so people would be more excited, therefore buying more chips/whatever they are.
