I've been to three different Targets and none had any Jade Flashwing left. I'm just wondering if we'll have another Granite Crusher here. I have one so it doesn't bother me, but I'm just wondering.

IMO, yes it won't be long before these are as elusive as Granite and to some degree Whirlwind from SSA.
If you can still find them, better go pick one up.

Jade Flashwing is already sold out in some stores across the US but she is still available in other stores. Your best chance is to get her quickly before becomes even more elusive and hard to find

I can totally see this becoming elusive yes, so best get them while you can. Target isn't known to continue "Exclusives" like everyone else does.

Your best luck would be to get jade online from target if you can't find her. I was able to (and still have) 3 extra that came earlier this week on monday before i got my 4 in store on the 17th. I'm still debating on returning the 3 to the store and such.
Your best bet for in store is pretty much up to end of april I would say check in or if you have to call your local target monday, wednesday and fridays to see if they can ever hold you one. This time around the employees seem much nicer to oblige and do so. Granite crusher at this point would be totally discontinued due to Jade's appearance, seemingly how target likes to get rid of things suddenly. I still recall whirlwind's very brief appearence last year. Also if you haven't, just keep checking http://www.target.com/p/skylan...=jade+flashwing. I found periodically for the same time you can call them that mon,wed,fri and sat that they have been getting jade in at times here.

It's kinda strange though, since I see the Target exclusive Skylanders Mega Bloks. Maybe that doesn't sell as fast as the actual figures, or maybe Target orders more of those.

It might be how your target is and no one is interested in it, or if you're there very frequently to target that people are buying much of them and they have a bigger stock. The target here for jade I noticed from the 17th they had two shipments of jade: One was approx 15 or 16th for the ad, saved for the sale and then the wednesday the week after approx the 27th there was another shipment of them. I ended up helping a few people find her as I already had the ones I needed (the original 4), but I think if you keep checking online from the link, check amazon for those doing it the normal price, you just might get lucky. I think though it depends who locks in the US versions of scarlet and polar though to really see how long she'll be available. We still have people going crazy for normal ninjini. Walmart seems to be about tapped out of MHD too.

I hope not. I was told Jade Flashwing would make her way to the Canadian Target stores as they opened.
I would have missed out already then.

If they haven't had her yet until now then you shouldn't have missed her. Make sure to check your target online webpages along with weekly ads to be sure.

Our local Target hasn't opened yet, but when questioned they said they would have her when they opened next month. So I'm just worried now. [/sigh] If she's sold out I guess I'll hafta buy her online.

I have a feeling we'll probably see her pop up again one more time. No doubt that they flew off the shelves and they reordered Granite Crusher once. Now I kind of kick myself for not buying a third of him for trade fodder.

Jade is close to sold out, and no more shipments are coming.
In Canada, she will be available when the first target flyer drops next Thursday. |

To give you an idea of how rare it's probably going to be...
They sent my Super Target just one case of 12 Jade Flashwing for release. I've not had another one to restock with since then and the endcap of two peg hooks for where I can fill their space has remained empty or is simply stocked with the other single pack Skylander figures (since they're the same price) by dayside Electronics team members. The only other Target is about 21 minutes away (12.6 miles according to mapquest) and they're not even a Super Target. We have a Gamestop across the road from us and then just a little ways down the street too, plus we are right beside a Best Buy. I regularly fill the shelves with Skylanders, it's popular sure, but I'd wager if you have other major retailers for the game that some locations won't have gotten as much stock for some figures as others.

jade will be like granite i feel, get her while you can. If you arent even sure you want her, just get her. you got 90 days (120 if your a redcard member) to make up your mind.

Glad I got mine online when I did, I go to target atleast 2 times a week and have never seen Jade at my local store.
Good Luck, hope you can find her....she became my daughter and I's favorite earthlander. |

Yes, practically every store in our area is either "in stock" or "limited stock". Last time I went I saw several. Our area must just be lucky. I actually ended up with an extra, I had ordered one online and found it in the store when they first hit. My son has a friend that loves Skylanders and has a birthday coming up this week, so I figured I would end up giving it to him as a gift. Then he was up at our house the other day and tells us he got a Jade Flashwing the previous day. Sigh. Oh well, maybe I'll just hang on to it since it might end up rare. |
