Just went down to TRU on whim and saw her on the shelves. Took her to the registers and it blinked not availible till Nov 22, new checker person called manager over and she said willing to do a swap for another character series 2 so I could pay and then have Stealthy. Other employ comes over says they cant sell them and starts taking the stealths off shelf as the manager walks away with my paid for LSE. So I sneak over and grab one and walk out the store. BOOM!

And if someone wants to pm me how to load a picture I will gladyly post one. I'm kinda retarded when it comes to posting pics on this site.

Side note I registered her on the Universe already, my account is velvet rustdragon. Ill be running around on the mainland in amborsia for the next 30 mins

So....You stole it?

That's what it sounds like!

So, basically, what you are telling us is you stole a L-Stealth Elf?

They didn't break the release date because they didn't sell it to you.

The cashier at the front okayed it and so did the manager. I paid for a Flashwing went back and traded the flash for the stealth went to the front and showed the same chick earlier and said bye. So no i paid the ten bucks and okayed with everybody there.

Just so you know, it is AN L-Stealth Elf or A Legendary Stealth Elf. This is NOT one of the areas in which the A/AN Rules are broken, because L is pronounced EL. (Notice the E.) I'm not saying you should watch your grammar, I am just pointing this out.

This is what you just said...

A. The manager took away the figure and walked off, and
B. You snuck over and grabbed another and walked out.

That clearly contradicts that the manager gave you the okay.

My TRU stocked her early this morning as well. They didn't sell her once she rang up, but they were taking holds for customers that had her in hand today. The same thing happened earlier this year with Dragon's Peak.

Technically, it is still "A" as the "L" is an abbreviation for "Legendary". When determining whether to use "A" or "An", abbreviated words apply the rule as it it would apply to the full word the abbreviation stands for.

This^ What you did, is I'm sorry...Wrong. You paid for a Flashwing, they told you they couldnt' sell the L- Stealth elf so you took it upon yourself to take it anyway....
Dude...not cool.

<3 Family Guy <3

That's not right... but..

L-Stealthy is out NOW, I guess..

Okay apparently flourish words dont work with this crowd. I used sneak because steallth elf was involved. Tch you guys are worse than cops, taking everything so anally. Nobody ever said the transaction could never occur, the manager had the toy in her hand before the guy came up and i was in the act of paying. A word was never directed at me from the manager or the other guy after that that i could not have the toy already purchased for and confirmed with twice from the manager previously. The manager walked off talking to the guy and the cashier in front saw fully and understood fully what happened.

Though whatever call me a thief if you wish it dosent make a difference, I still have the character and funs will commence. I thought it would be cool to share an experiance that I quite enjoyed, but apparently if this forum cant be shared by everyone I see why only a few members dominate the threads while most people stay in the back row silent.

You stole an , eh?

What state was this in?

Yes I did, apparently.


And California

California, the state that got the final Waves for S:SA weeks before NJ got them.

LMAO! Nice!

Oh yeah, I get everything on the either confirmed release date or before hand, this is the first broken one however. Toys for Bob is in Northern California, which might have something to do with it, but yawn if there is ever anything you want I'll see if i can get it for ya, just pm me whenever.


There were a crapton of sprockets and flashwings, no hothead however, in matter of fact the only giants on shelf were bouncers and L variants

Why would you not say all that in the first place? You are the one that made you out to be a thief.

Still can't figure out why the manager would walk off with it......

Shrug I'm a novelist, I've written 4 800+ page books for fun. Kind of a hard habit to kick and I quite like making connections with word play, "nasty habits here to stay, now they'll never go away" to quote. But i figure the petty details would be boring to this crowd, and I was quite excited with a blood adrenaline rush for getting a new figure that i wasnt expecting to have and the lack of black friday hassle now.

And from what I observed of her, the manager, she was new and a bit scatter brained and was quite oblvious to the whole skylander craze.

And if by definition I am a theif, at least I'm a good one. Insert winky face.

So we have a skylander thief online, time TO LET OUT THE HOUNDS!

I like puppies, and 1 in every 7 customers steals from a grocery store. Satistics are fun, but yes I've stolen stuff before I'm not ashamed nor am I proud. It's life. This however was a paid item in this circumstance.

.....

1 in every 7 steals from a grocery store.... Where did you get that statistic?

Used to work at one and did a lot of research on it. I would catch them most of them most the time. Later tonight I'll.l see if I can pull the statistics back up.

I like how the whole topic is just arguing and still no actual proof of the figure. xD

You wanted actual proof? here it is...

Happy now?

Yeah, thanks!

Not mine but its the real fig.

Well, civilized humans like Awesomerockets and I believe that Stealth Elf is terrible.

(OMG FAQIN STEALF ELF IS SUX!!!!1)

So the real realease date is the 22nd and not the 18th?

i think we should let the pixel hounds get him

hey, i was wondering...


Do the series 2 legendaries have Wow Pows and/or switch path ability? I figured they would, but with all the crappy differences between the lightcores, I thought I'd ask.

It has been out in Canada for a few weeks.

You shoplifted just so you could get a Skylander early.

Yeah, congratulations, great job... Not.

And he posted a public topic about taking the toy.

nice example for the kids on this website. way to tell em what to be when they grow up. ( if you didnt know, that was SARCASM)

This little fool wormbaby. Stealing toys. Now, if he weighs in at 634, how does he sneak?

The actual date for stealth is the 22nd and yes the legendatries for S2 have wowpows and can switch paths.

Im a chick, medium weight, and i have stealth elf. Soooo yay mes. Just thought people would like the info. I got the okay and paid. If thats stealing cool, im the master theif ninja that has never gotten caught. I am full of win.

Sure, you paid, but it still theft. (AKA, something that could get you arrested for shoplifting) Sure, you payed. For a Flashwing.

You paid for the Flashwing. Not the L-Stealth Elf. Way to show an impression for us Skylander fans who buy honestly.

Shrug I went back a second time earlier and they hadn't taken all of them off the shelves just most of them. Speculation in me thinks manager went screw it just sell them or they didnt play enough I spy when they were children. There were at least 8 left.

But you posted this topic about your theft of the L-Stealth Elf. And this topic is already showing on the Google search results worldwide so...

Did it ever cross your mind that they had them on the shelves to advertise the upcoming release?

So when you're at the grocery store and you buy8 hotpockets packs. 4 peperoni and 4 ham and cheese. Instead of scanning each one individually the checker scans one peperoni 8 times that counts as stealing. You pay the same amount of money the reciet just says 8 peperoni hot pockets instead of 4 peperoni and 4 ham and cheese.


and false advetisment? If its on shelves with price tags, if my law knowledge is correct i believe they legally have to sell it or they can get in trouble either or.

Lets trace his perc info and report info!

*grabs pitchfork* Let's go!!!!!!!

I'm talking about you...
