Awesome find Bazinga! Hopefully those who didn't get her the first time around wil have a chance to secure her, or use this as a back up until a set in stone release of her is in the U.S. and other places. I believe she may be around $22 USD after standard shipping.

Anyone know German to translate this email I got? smilie

Nice find! I'm just grabbing one for now to open and play with, I'll grab my U.S. version for my unopened because the Euro style packaging bothers me.

I am one of the weirdos who likes the EU style peg hood. I do not know why. Maybe because it is different? lol

For those that ordered this morning. Does it say it will be here between the 6th and the 11th of May? One point says it will be here tomorrow but, I just don't think that will happen lol.

I just ordered two and they did the payment very quick. I think at seeing the scarlet i have for myself, the pegging isn't bad and the fact i'm getting it from germany all the more made scarlet special, she's wonderful to have in hand. I have to agree on it being different is what makes it neat, especially you'll see the various languages on the back of the box for the region too. Thanks again for the heads up.

From those factoring they'll save money on waiting I did the math on this one and you're only saving 9 bucks on waiting for her to come out mid may whereas that's not a bad "loss" to have her sooner and not have to migrate to the stores.

And, if when she does come out here you end up ordering online (which is very possible if she is limited) you save even less. Amazon is good about refunding lost shipments. I don't see any good reason to wait unless you want a packaged one and the hook bothers you. In the end the money you spend on gas hunting them could easily make waiting into a loss, cost wise. The shipping cost is less than two gallons of gas at current prices in the US.

Psst, if you are ordering one they also have LC Chill and LC Pop Fizz shipped and sold by Amazon in stock, it doesn't increase your shipping cost to also get those. I ordered those plus a Scarlet for a gift to a the son of good friend that has helped me with a home improvement project. In the end it is going to cost about $5 (counting foreign currency fee and shipping) more than if I were to walk into my Toys R Us and buy them off the shelf (if they were in stock) and pay sales tax. I paid $3.65 a gallon for gas this morning.

The problem that I run into is if I want new figures and don't want to wait a month or two to get them I have to take off work and miss a day to get to TRU (usually where they come out at) and stand in line to get them. The TRU I go to only had 4 or 6 Ninjini's they were gone by 10:30 and I don't get off work until 4:15. So this will probably save me a bunch of money and time. smilie

I may pick up one in the US when it comes out just to have the different packaging. I really want Polar Whirlwind and if my parents give me money for my birthday this weekend I know where that is going! smilie

I have two LC Pop Fizzes on pre order from TRU.com still and they came to half price back then so it's more of a 2 for one thing for that. LC chill i don't plan on getting because of the legendary one purchased last month.

I came to the same realization for scarlet when i got the first one in as it came in ten business days like it should have. There will always be some figure you have to get through shipping and for most of us that just want to finish, that comes down to scarlet and polar because to be honest, all the retailers had long enough on the US coast to get them out. If there's a feasible way to get it without as much wait and not as expensive, it cuts down on the hunting and lurking stores, taking time off from work if necessary. In my case I would have to for scarlet on the 19th.

The other light cores and other figures will be for the most part common to grab when need to be to finish.

TRU has a shady history on pre-orders and shipping them nicely without getting damaged. The only time I ordered something from TRU on-line it got cancelled because it was a mistake I think..... They put Thumpback for sale on their EBAY page and I later got a generic email stating that they had sold too many. Or in other words they goofed up and gave me a canned response.

I feel it is kind of a double edge sword buying stuff online. I enjoyed the hunt with S:SA. Now, with joining this site and what not I know when stuff is going to be out and know the best places to get them. So, while it does take down on the thrill of the chase it may save money in the long run.

The reason I think it saves me money.... I never saw jadewing in a Target in my area. Never!

Taking a total shot in the dark here, I wonder if TRU has something that stops it from being shipped to the US due to LLC Chill. Again, just a wild guess but it would be weird for them to do that.

mine took 10 business days but that might be due to them shipping it around march 30th so there was the extra time of it taking for the weekends. I'm also on the east coast of the US but I would still say its going to take somewhere first or second week of may for arrival for this order.

Oh the dilemma!
Do I buy her off germany (and possibly some other things there, to make it worthwhile using parents' credit card which is almost never used?), or wait till she comes to the US?
Anyway, good to know she's back in stock, but I doubt she'll stay that way!

Not to my address for Lightcore Chill. I'm noticing that Amazon is not the seller of LC Chill there--maybe they have restrictions....it clearly states that that item can't ship to my address. Pop and Scarlet are fine.

You must be seeing something different. Amazon.de is the seller for Light Core Chill. I'm in the same city you are and it just shipped a few hours ago.

GhostRoaster, you should copy and paste what it's telling you, it seems weird that they'd exclude JUST YOU. They ship to everybody else, as far as I can see (I already have Legendary Lightcore Chill, so I'm not interested in ordering to check. And I'm in Canada, I suspect a different country than you, so that would prove nothing anyway) smilie

I went ahead and ordered 4 LC Pop, 4 LC Chill, and 1 Triple Pack 7, just incase my city never sees them due to the massive amounts of shelf warming Cynders, first 5 Lightcores, Stump Smashes, etc...

In the event they come out, I will only need to replace the PAL pegging with the J-peg hook by buying one of each. I will then sell the LC Pop and Chill to my neighbor across the street. Don't know what I will do with an extra Triple Pack 7, but oh well.

So hesitant to give it a go on the LC's. If it was Hex and Pfizz i most likely would do it. The variants yes, I just can't see myself doing the LC's. PFizz is on TRU pre-order (he will probably show up next year :exaggerating: ) I will hunt for them once released here, I am under the impression they will be much easier to find. Patience is wearing thin though. Congrats to those who got them.

I have the opposite problem--I only open up 1 and keep 4, so in my case I ordered what I'll open and wait for the correct peg. Didnt know they had the triple there. hehe I'm still needing 3 of those. I tend to wait a long time for some reason for those.
