call your local Gamestop before you go. I went to the one that I reserved it at as well as 2 others nearby and none of them got them. I've been told it "might" be in the shipment today but other than that they gave me an 800 number for customer service.

They have a release date of today, which usually means they come in on the afternoon shipment. I haven't ever had issues before, just be patient. It isn't like game releases where they get them a couple of days before.

Yah same here, my gamestop friend said he was looking in to it, but that it is not even listed on the items they are getting any time soon. But it is still showing that it should be released today.

Same here in Florida. They aren't in or on any of the shipment orders. They said, "keep checking back but we do not know what is going on." What a bummer.

Well I just talked to my friend at gamestop and he said that he called around and that today was the "ship date" the day they ship the item out and it should be here tomorrow, but it could be as late as Friday before they get them.

I just talked to my local guy and they did not get them in either. He is guessing they shipped today also. I am okay, I am patient as it's only a toy but they need to figure it out going forward because I am sure some people will lose their SH...tuff over it.

Today is the ship date, I may check on the way home, but tomorrow is just as good. I won't be giving it to my son till Friday. I have to see if he earned enough high scores at school to get if for free (for him) or if he has to buy it.

-Cashier at GS Told me to expect the 12th when I ordered.

I was kinda upset going to Gamestop today and wasting a trip only to be told that it wouldn't be delivered today. I know that I was told it would be available for pickup today. I am sure that the cashier didn't know either that it wouldn't be available today. Generally though when you think of pre-ordering something and then when you are given a date at Gamestop that usually means the pick up date, at least from my dealings with them.

Because the different time lines...im seeing many places are like that with Gamestop. That manager said the 13th to cover his ass..
Im sure they will be everywhere by the 13th....by the way i haven't gotten them in my area either(TN)

I will wait till the other stores get them because of 2 issues:
1) GS charges $15.99 instead of $14.99 (They sell the other Giants same price as the other stores)
2) They do not honor the Giants coupon from Activision (Frito Lay)
So if you are buying him from GS, you are paying $2 more for a character that most people have already completed the game.
I'll just wait a week or so to get it.

I bought Pumpkin Eye Brawl in WalMart today in the evening (Tracy, California). A few GameStop in my area didn't have Pumpkin today and they are not sure when they receive it.

So check your other retail stores - it is not exclusive to GameStop only.

Looks like I don't have to wait a week. If you got your Giant Kicks, make use of you $1 off coupon. and STICK it to GameStop.

The Gamestop in my area got an email today. It was one sentence, You can expect delivery of Pumpkin Eye-Brawl by Wednesday 9/18/13 at the latest.

Other than that they have not released any info to the stores. Also I called the corporate customer service line and they had no clue, couldn't even find it in the system. Gamestop rules...

Got mine at Walmart and used the $1 coupon from Frito Lay. Game Stop, Eat your heart out...

Maybe this is Activisions way of getting back at Game Stop for not honoring the coupon:
Telling them they would get PEB early and then turn around and give it to Walmart first and giving GS a new release date.
If this is what's happening, I LOVE IT.

If you have the Frito Lay coupons and you have Pre-Ordered at GS, go back and get your deposit back and save $2.

Gs is selling PEB for $15.99 with no discount
All other stores sell PEB for $14.99 and honor the $1 Frito Lay coupon for a total of $13.99. (Actually Walmart would be $13.96, you know how they like the .96c rule)

By the way, the Walmart that I got it from had about 12 of them. They probably got 2 boxes of 6. Looks like the same way Gnarly was released (By themselves).

Same issue at my work Gamestop.... won't be in till Wednesday. If I don't get on Wednesday... umm well then that store may lose a customer. Not very happy but delays were expected. Tried to convince me to take on... but did not say they had them. I have a kid set on getting this one.

I'm getting to the point where if I do anything on Skylanders, it is while they are sleeping. I've always joked i wake up in the middle of the night an play games. smilie

Only the exclusives is what I get at Game Stop.

It perplexes me to hear talk of Pumpkin Eye Brawl being $15.99.... Mine was from EBGames (our name for GameStop), he was $14.99 like every other giant... smilie It really sounds like EBGames doesn't quite suffer from all the questionable practices that GameStop does, which is weird since some of it seems to be at the corporate level, as in the same people who supply our stores... Hmmm....
