Yeah, but S2 's Wow Pow was the last thing I expected.

^But it's still AWESOME!

^
I have to agree. AWESOME Wow Pow has AWESOMENESS!!!!

All of wave 2 is ready to ship on TRU.com! (But no LC jet vac and hot head)

What is it? ^

its called rolling thunder while rollin press z on the wii version he jumps high and punces the ground while curled up

in Giants, are there Soul Gems as well? I know there are Wow Pows. Also, in Giants, do Series 1 Skylanders go to Level 15? I'm guessing probably not, but still...

Yes there are Soul Gems in Giants, but only on the new Skylanders and Giants.

Ok, thanks.

New characters and Giants have Soul Gems, the Series 2 Wow Pow can be purchased from the beginning. And yes, Series 1 characters can level up to Lv15.

Wow......

Fake. Look at the plastic edges. You can see that it was already peeled off.

I got sprocket!

In a 3 pack.

She's epic....

*waits for Nibelilt to come and kill me*

I saw the Sprocket triple pack at my Target (with nearly all of Wave 2), but I didn't buy it. I'm just not sure if I really want Sprocket in my collection......

*hides in bomb shelter to avoid Giant Death Tank*

YOU MUST BUY HER.

I know. But, I have a whole plan of who I should buy, who I shouldn't buy, etc. I worked it out, and I figured that Sprocket would be unnecessary with no impact to the plan.

But, I still think that Sprocket is awesome.

I posted about these in various threads in Toys/Merch, but:

-Walmart will be selling what looks like large Skylanders Action Figures. The ad shows Spyro and Gill Grunt, although I'd guess Eruptor and Trigger Happy will also be out. Would be nice though if they make ones for other characters, like Flynn, Callie or Kaos.


-TRU has the Giants Megabloks sets out. One I went to had the small Chill pack and the huge Castle set (with Glumshanks and Kaos figures)

-Dunno about other areas, but my K-marts finally got Giants merch in. Both of the ones I went to had Wave 1 stuff in, including battle packs

Does anyone have the guide that tells you where the Winged Sapphires are?

Fred Meyers is beginning to stock Skylanders Giants merchandise, flashlights, earbuds, headphones, walkie talkies, camera bundle.

NOW GO SELL SOME LEMONADE

This is plain stupid . it'd be ok to include a variant in a huge package like they did on gamestop, if you buy the tower case, a three pack, and another skylander online, they gave you a crystal or gold variant. but making an in-game variant only available if you buy a #$%^ing wii and the game is wrong, they could have made it so that you get 2 variants and one exclusive variant. i think activision made a real cheap move this time.

Hey, here's an idea! Why don't you just not bother trying to get the variant in the first place?

They did make a cheap move, but come on, Gnarly is the least desirable of all the specific variants. And it's not like they stuck something that has no regular version yet in that package, like Scarlet Ninjini. Wouldn't that be a lot worse?

Also, do the math. Buy the bundle, sell the system and the game (sans Tree Rex) on eBay, and you have your final figure either at normal market cost or even a slight profit.

What I'm interested in: in hame visible limited editions. GitD...pfff.... no extra powers, no visuals in game,... no effect in daylight.
Same with Blue bash, red Drill sergeant, Pearls, golden Skylanders, Silver ones, ...
So I'd like a list of all in game special editions;
Most obvious: all legendaries, dark spyro, gnarly Tree Rex,... what else? White Whirlwind to come?

Scarlet Ninjini,Molten HotDog,Jade Flashwing;Royal DoubleTrouble,Granite Crusher,

On ebay,a user has a collection of every character and variant and silvers,golds,gitd,pearl,toy fair exclusives so EVERY CHARACTER but it costs $5,000

Yea... I have a blue bash, pearl hex,... too. Never got me a golden, silver, GitD though.
So I narrowed down to the "benefits": in game looks and/or better stats.

I have all S1 figurines + legendaries, and a few more. S2 I scored the legendary triple pack, cannon pack and a total of 25 until now.
So...what's rare over here in belgium? For now: roughly 4 giants and 4 LC's not in shops (especially Thumpback, Ninjiri, EyeBrawl, HotHead, HotDog, a few LC's).
Legendary triple pack and golden cannon can be found (especially the cannon). Legendary Bouncer and the granites... mmmhhh... starts getting tricky finding those.
And stone whirlwind or white one is like a faint rumour of something to come.

Scarlet Ninjini,Molten HotDog,Jade Flashwing;Royal DoubleTrouble,Granite Crusher,

And add to those (beside those legendaries I mentionned): Gnarly Tree Rex, Punch PopFizz, Polar Whirlwind?

Guess I'm about 20 pieces short here... ;-P

when is wave 2 coming out in canada?

RANDOM POST

what's up?

Actually, it was listed at 3,000. It was me who listed it, and I took the auction down, because I had second thoughts... at this time.

However, how about an auction for a single figure at $5000?

Actually, Tash, I posted this on Neogaf. It's what I am doing to get Gnarly on the super cheap.

"Well, I guess I can explain what I did.

When I bought the 3 Wii's, I also got 3 Display Cases that included Wham Shell inside. Those cost 30 bucks each, and I am selling them to friends for 30 bucks each. That's 90 dollars.

I spent 487.65 for these 3 Wii's.

Back to what I was getting at. 90 dollars already gotten, so that knocks the price down to 397.65. Then, my neighbor across the street wanted a Wii for his bedroom, so I told him I'd sell him one of the open Wii's, with a copy of the game, portal, Jet-Vac, and Series 2 Cynder, for 100 bucks. He's already paid me for that. So, that knocks the price down to 297.65.

I always donate to Toys For Tots every year, so charity work is always done. No Wii giving... not until I am rich enough to do that.

Back - again - to what I was getting at. I might have a buyer for the second opened Wii, which I am selling for 80 bucks, sans the game, which I am GIVING to a friend for free. It is minus Jet-Vac and Tree Rex, but I am giving him an extra Tree Rex I have, so he's only missing Jet-Vac, which will be out in a Single Pack later on. If this Wii sells, that knocks the price down to 217.65.

So, in summary, if one were to play it smart, and get in on the TRU deal, where you get a free display case (30 dollar value) for every 100 you spend on Skylanders, you can turn around and sell a lot of the stuff in order to get Gnarly Tree Rex.

Here is how it breaks down.

I bought 3 Wii's, 2 to open for 2 Gnarly Tree Rex's, while the third will stay sealed. It ran me 217.65 after selling stuff (AT COST) to recoup costs. I could have sold those cases on Ebay for 40 plus, however, making it cost even less, but I didn't because they would be against my non-scalping ways.

217.65, minus 162.55 since I am keeping one sealed, leaves me out 55.10 for 2 open Gnarly Tree Rex's. I wouldn't say that's bad at all, seeing as people are buying one Gnarly Tree Rex on Ebay by himself, for 80 plus. i got 2 for 55.10.

I could also go a bit further if I wanted. I have 4 sealed Wham Shells I was trying to help people get at cost, because they kept complaining they needed it, then when I tried to help no one replied. That's money already out of my budget and I never planned on getting it back. However, even if I sold those 4, I could get 40 bucks back and apply it to the 217.65, making it go down to 177.65, which is almost making my 2 open Gnarly Tree Rex's free. Then, I could go even further and sell the 3 extra Volcanic Vaults I got back in the day during the Best Buy promo, for 30 each (had to spend 25 before tax to get them). Again, that's money out of my budget that I never planned on getting back. That's an additional 90 bucks if I really wanted to sell them, making the entire transaction go from 177.65, to an astonishing 87.65. I could say I got THREE Wii bundles for less than the cost of ONE Wii.

I've been tossing around the idea of selling the 4 Whams hanging up in my closet, as well as 3 VV's, which can be used in Giants. Getting 3 Wii's for a total of 87.55 is a deal no one can beat.

However, no matter what I do, the most I spent for these 3 Wii's, is 217.65, which is 55.10 more than the cost of a sealed Wii bundle. Not even 55.10 could buy 1 Gnarly Tree Rex on Ebay, but I got 2 for 55.10.

So, that's why I did it."

If you put that chrome spyro and pearl hex up for 50.00 I will love you

Hey, no need to be rude about it. i just think they shouldn't include an ingame different character, its almost like making a single character exclusive to the bundle, except regular tree rex is available to everyone. and gnarly tree rex simply looks awesome, no matter anyway, i already bought the bundle online.

1/. There already is a Legendary Bash so there is no need to speculate "if he was a legendary".

2/. This is the news topic and DarkSpyro specifically asked to keep it at that and I am sorry but no matter how wonderful your drawing is, it is not exactly news.

dude it was an exaple dont be so berly

i hate when i get bossed aroind it was an exaple if there was a legedanry series 2 bash that is he would look like im not stuped anyways i own 4 bashes blue bash l-bash bash and series 2 bash any ways what other discovers hmmmm

why dont we talk about how the scorpion catapult will work who agrees

Actually, sorry to look like I am picking on you but how about discussion of anything be in a discussion thread, not the thread which is supposed to be dedicated to news only?

Please don't shoot the messenger, I am not bossing your around, simply reiterating the expectation of the forum owner. It is Dark's forum so his rules, after all.

If there is no news then do not post in the news topic. It's as simple as that.

I'll say it again: I don't see why we need this thread at all! Pretty much the only majoy things we have left to discover are the toy/wave release dates and extra merchandise and those belong in Toys And Merchandise. Not trying to sound rude or anything dark but can you please clarify why we still need this topic open anyway?!?!
Edit: Not that I support the spamming or anything, but this topic really is pointless at this point anyway.

What wave are Ninjini Eyebrawl Thumpback and Hot dog being released in?
