Everywhere I go I see a ton of Bouncer's and Swarm's,usually a few Hot Head's,but Crusher never appears. Does anyone else's stores act like this in terms of stock?

That's odd. Bouncer is probably the easiest giant to find in my area. Fortunately,I got Crusher the day the game came out.

Saw quite a few Series 1 Skylanders on sale the other day for $5 each. Been seeing a lot of Series 1 characters around. This is in Australia though, are they rare everywhere in the US?

Swarm stocks 2/3 of the pegs in my walmarts. In target there are barely any giants mostly singles.

Crusher is always available in Tesco.  They even have Granite Crusher back in stock.

Crusher was more uncommon than Bouncer and Swarm because he was not part of the Wave 2 boxes and they were.  He IS back in Wave 3 boxes with Thumpback and Eye Brawl, but only 1 per.  That just means that until Thumpy hit only 1 of the 2 different box assortments had Crusher, hence the smaller numbers of him being available.

Eventually, Bouncer will become rare when the W1 boxes stop shipping out, well, at least a little less common.. 
			So far, the rarest Giant is Granite Crusher (IN THE US.).

It was SURREAL seeing a Hot Head and Crusher side-by-side at a Best Buy. It was the only time I ever saw them in person in a store.

Unlike most people's areas, Hot Head is actually easy to find in mine (However, Bouncer and Swarm are easier).

Crusher isn't hard to find here, I see a healthy number of him along with Swarm and bouncer. Sadly the rarer ones here are Hot Head, Eyebrawl and Thumpback. 
			Though I will admit that crusher is getting less common as he weeks go by. I've hardly seen many Giants figures at any store I go to besides TRU-

At my local GameStop, I always see Crusher. In fact, I just went to GameStop today and saw all 6 Giants on display. Plus the game of course, so 7 Giants.

 In my opinion, Bouncer is the worst giant and is very lame, as in his design is very boring and generic looking, and I just don't feel like there is anything special about him, and to me, he's just an ordinary robot. And Ninjini's not the worst (overrated, but not the worst)! She's my favorite giant, but that's probably just because I LOVE ninjas.

It's not so much that the character is rare, it's the popularity. Dude with decent lightcore effect, a giant hammer and a petrification gaze? Heck, that's a lot more fun than a lot of them.

I spoke to an associate at my TRU in Va and he told me they had a few cases of Eye Brawl and Thumpback in the store room but weren't displaying them till the 22nd.  No Crushers though but a butt load of Swarms and Bouncers.
