Has that ever happened though? To my knowledge every in-game variant has had a worldwide release.

Anyways, I tweeted the Skylanders account asking if they are going to release Scarlet Ninjini in the US. Let's see if they respond back lol.

If they are in the strategy guide then they will be released everywhere.

I thought for some reason, people in the PAL regions were complaining because they still don't have Royal Double Trouble? Could be wrong. I hope I'm wrong.

Ordered to the UK, thanks Ash64 for posting that you ordered, saw that and got mine straight away! Couldn't understand the language but the Amazon site was familiar so guessed at what buttons to press!!

Amazon.de says it is exclusive to them, like gold Flameslinger was exclusive to USA Amazon I expect this one is again just to one country

Will probably get Scarlet Ninjini arrive now before we even see the regular one

Your welcome. I used Google translate just in case.

I send my deep thanks to you too, Ash64...

I just ordered one and had it sent to the states. Well worth the $23 to know I have one. This is officially the most I've spent on a single skylander.

I appreciate the heads up and advice to use google chrome Ash64.

Thanks Ash! Got mine ordered!

I ordered one as well to the good ole US of A. Guess I'll wait on the results and post later.. Thanks for the info..

I ordered it as well. Thanks for the info and link. Total cost 21.40 US Dollars.

It doesn't ship until March 15th, so if it shows up here before that I can always cancel it.

Three for $58 and change. Est. delivery March 23-28th

How highly would those who ordered one recommend that I order one. Is it that unlikely and worry some that scarlet ninjini won't come to the United States?

I ordered two for $40.44 US Just a few bucks more than if they are ever available on US amazon. I'll cancel if it is available on US amazon before March 15th.

ill hold off for now. Wud take weeks before you get it anyways. Considering all ingame variants showing elsewhere being available here in US in a week or so. This couple days been interesting so far. Cant wait for her to hit the states!

She will be available in the states. I don't see Acti doing something like not making her available to people in states that would make their biggest group of customers mad.

It is your choice. I can't possibly imagine one of the core variants not having a US distribution. However, I had the option to buy one now and have it in hand by April. Who knows when it will be available or the retailer that will carry it. This way I get one shipped to me for just under $23 and I have no further hunting for this specific figure. (AS long as the order does not get canceled). It would cost meat least $15 in store to get one when they do show up in the US and this does not factor in the headache of tracking one down and fighting off other skylander fans. Even if I find one in the states online I may not likely have to invest less than $18 including shipping. For me this was a smart decision. However, I have no personal experience with Amazon.de so there may be headaches I am not considering.

edit: I should note these are expected to be Euro pegged. This does not bother me but will others.

I ordered it so I'm not waiting in lines for it. It's that simple. I on lined ordered MHD and JADE now Scarlet. And if I can order the remaining SG figures online I will. I've grown a little tired of Drivin all around for them. I'll buy em for the kids but really this is so much easier than SSA was and the beginning of SG. My 2 cents.

The only reason I went ahead and ordered it ( after translating many of the options ) was the item itself indicated exclusive to amazon.de
I'm sure it will be an exclusive over here to either amazon or some other company, as Jade Flashwing was listed the same overseas as a store excluseive, but Target here. And Molten Hot Dog was listed as exclusive to Gamestop in europe as well. Follwing this pattern, Scarlette N. will most certainly be available in the states. But, I figured it couldnt hurt , so the order is placed and we will see how they show up. Ordered 2, total was only 41 dollars. Will update you guys if anything changes. Happy hunting !

If TFB/Acti ever held back an ingame variant from the US, that would give me a sour taste that I don't think I can relieve myself of.

I invested way too much into Skylanders ingame variants, to not be able to get all 8. If Scarlet and Polar stayed exclusive overseas, that would be pretty messed up.

Likewise for overseas. If they don't have any of the characters that actually show up inagme differently, than that's messed up.

I agree. They've made some interesting decisions on their in game variants...they better watch it.

Will they honor to shipped it outside germany? I doubt they wud or they will inform you its either its cancelled or jacked the prices up due to shipping cost. We ll just to wait and see on that and yea thats the beauty of online sales. The comfort of just staying at home wairing for things you bought.

I ordered one for my to open collection, so I won't have to track it down later, when its announced for the US I'll grab another.

Legendary stealth elf was an amazon exclusive for Italy but a toysrus one for everyone else, scarlet ninjini could possibly be an exclusive for the US at a different retailer other than amazon. I'm just worried that if it comes damaged through amazon.de than it would be almost impossible or at least a HUGE difficulty to get it replaced or refunded. I feel like I should wait for a US release but I don't want to regret it if for whatever reason she doesn't come to the US. I guess I'll just take my chances, besides its only a preorder not the actual product, right?

I am not sure. If it is just a pre-Order. Some one said they were to have it by the 14th of the month.

i quite love her, i prefer her more than normal ninjini

I Just Ordered 2 of her.....That Google chrome translater is official.....Nice Stuff......Thank You Portal Masters from all around the World....
I'm not taking a chance and Missing this girl...My Boss gave me 3 Hours Ot for free...Thats where my Money went.

According to the Amazon.de website it is a preorder with a release date of March 15th they are estimating 7-10 day delivery for me (I'm on the east coast of the States)

Me too.......Its Ok.....She will Be Here before u Know It...

Just hope they don't mess up your order, that would stink to sort out ...

I'm certain we will be seeing this in the US in the near future. If it is Amazon, then we know from Gold Flameslinger they weren't really all that forthcoming with information about him either. He just sort of showed up and everyone was wondering about it. And Skylanders almost never show up prior to sale on Amazon in the US, whereas they do in Europe a lot of the time.

Not to put a damper on you guys' order, and it has been a while since I ordered from amazon.de but [the last time I did] I ordered two cds from there and it took roughly two weeks from shipment to come to me.

omg I just ordered two

If the order went through, Amazon will honor it. Even if it was a preorder. You will know if items can't be shipped to the states after you enter your shipping address. It will say Amazon can't ship to your address.

Your welcome to every that gave me thanks but wait till we receive them for that. What are the chances that here in the UK we see s.ninjini around the same time as Germany? I think it's very little or we might not even get it like Gold flameslinger and royal double trouble and many more.

You guys from the USA are getting upset over 1 figure that you know you will end up getting anyway. For us in the UK/Europe/Australia its only a chance. I do hope everyone get it.

I hope everyone has access to Scarlet Ninjini at some point, but I wasn't about to take the chance on missing her.

I ordered one, just to be certain, the figure will work on the American game even though its coming from Germany right?

How did you get it to say USA for "Land"/country. I can't find the option.

I used the account I have established with the Amazon branch in the states and it already had all that information in the system.

Vereinigte Staaten von Amerika means USA thats wat u pick...google chrome translates it for u..

To be honest she looks horrible in My Opinion.Much more rather the original.This is just like the normal and the golden dragonfire cannon delima.I think if she did not ave the gold she would look more appealing and less horrid.

Decided to just buy one in case they aren't released here. Worst case scenario they are & I paid a little extra. Now just for Polar Whirlywind.

I realize how excited some get about the variants, but you can't possibly expect Polar Whirlwind and Scarlet Ninjini to be released only in Europe?? I'm just as impatient as the next collector, but these will surely be available stateside sometime in the next 4-6 weeks.

Wait where did you American people get Euros to buy this with? Do i convert my giftcard balance or something?

Done, just ordered two from Amazon.de, for each path. Cannot be bothered looking around for her. Even if we get news an easier way to get her before then I can cancel my order.

Royal Double Trouble was America exclusive(and let's not forget the Sidekicks).

^ And Flocked Stump Smash.

FSS isn't an in-game variant...?

Oh I hope it's not an Amazon exclusive.

Meh, just ordered her.

$22, but it was well spent. I'm getting sick of stressing over these figures tbh.

What store is exclusive to?

$22.25 to order her from Germany. If I order a Giant from say,TRU it costs me basicly $20.00 with tax and S&H. So yeah, an extra $2.25 to know that it's one less figure I have to spend gas and time tracking down..... it's worth it.

There's not enough compelling evidence to point to Scarlet Ninjini being a Germany exclusive variant. The " (exklusiv bei Amazon.de)" is no different to the other exclusives noted as being exclusives for their specific store. It's probably just not an Amazon exclusive everywhere else.

Scarlet is pah'taking awesome, but have you tried getting Amazon to ship to Asia? They don't even have figures for the asian sites. I think, if she is exclusive to amazon, I'll pass and have a friend get Jadewing at Target in the US.

Did you find out if SN will ever be released in US? Found a note somewhere else that it was expected April 15.?

Btw., she has also been available in TRU in the Nordic countries - at least.
