162 is no where near 7000. no matter how you figure it.
i think they ment only "700" were made, that would seem much more like it.

Just checked my bank and my checks haven't been cashed either. I'm guessing they might be waiting or just being slow about it like they were with the FSS contest haha

I, too, would have expected a much higher number to have been received by members of this board since this was the only place discussing the promo for much of its duration. eBay is probably the only other measure for how many have been received, and it looks like a few hundred have been sold there. Of course, not everyone is looking to sell theirs, but I would have expected more than that out of 7300.

Spotted bags today with an expiration of 9/11...that's TWO weeks after the 8/28 expiration....aka wave 2. I believe that's how they stock the chips...so two more rounds of bags...and they'll be restocking with the next promo, whatever that may be!!! I say send in the cards, the sooner you order, the better chance they'll still have all 4 available!! The longer you wait, the more likely you'll get choice 2, 3, or 4.

All four of the Stump Smashes that me and my family won came on the same day. I kept getting phone calls... "I got it!"

I sent out for my Sidekicks last week... still no checks cashed. Didn't expect them to be cashed this soon though. Takes a couple days to reach them, who knows how long for them to get to my envelopes, then IF they cash them immediately it would still take several days to a week for it to show in my account.

Gonna buy more chips soon. Then Skylanders of the Patience Element will be stronger. Until Giants comes, or a Variant comes my way. I'm all planned out.

Interesting theory. I wish I knew more about how the sidekicks availability worked, But with their goofy "rank 1 - 4" system I think it makes sense to get my request in as soon as possible so the figures are not sold out yet.

Of course, if they are showing up at the distributor in waves or something, that could a completely different situation.

i dont understand, you make a big deal out of how activision is milking us for money and how you dont want to buy any more. then why do you keep posting? just sell your skylanders and stop. even your sig states that you hate them.

the Frito phone rep I spoke with said they need to be separate checks because each voucher is processed as a separate order. * of course, she also said they need to be sent separately, which went against the recorded advise in PRESS ONE option.
** also, in RANDOM total: I received 7 Wrecking balls, 3 Boomers, 2 Flocked Stumpys. I only tried for 2 weeks straight so this is all for me. ***

I have my order on the way, only went for 2 instead of all 4. Figured I at least wanted to try and get Whisper Elf and Terrabite first since they'll likely be the first ones they run out of. Just hope I'm not moved out before they arrive.

Welp, finally decided to buy the other 2 packs, so I'll be sending them in tomorrow.

There was luckily a Drug Mart right near the Walmart I bought them at, so I went and got my money orders taken care of too.

Question though for those that sent them in- did you right "Skylanders™" like it has it on the card, or did you just write "Skylanders" without the trademark symbol? Does anyone think that matters?
