Sorry if I missed news of this, but it was a shock to me... I just picked up a brand new Boomer triple pack at Toys R Us today (and there was another one on the shelf!) So apparently they're circulating these again. Start looking around if you still need him!

Just picked up the one. Couldn't deprive someone else of the thrill! It was in Langhorne, PA by the way...

You mean you didn't buy them all and hit up eBay right away?
I am seeing lots of honesty and nice people in the forum recently. Almost restores my faith in Humanity. |

Pics, SkyForce?
Hate to be a naysayer, but without any offense intended, I'd love to see some proof to back-up your Boomer story.

With the recent influx of harder to find Spyro's Adventure figures showing up I think that it would be the next logical thing to have happen. In the last six to eight weeks I have seen multiple Voodood's, Wham-Shells, (1) Dino-Rang and (2) Darklight Crypt packs. Since the Dragons Peak in pretty easily obtainable at Walmart and Target stores, and the Camo, Ignitor and Warnado triple pack in pretty much a shelf warmer at TRU I would actually be surprised if Boomer didn't come out. One thing I am curious about it how well Skylanders is doing in Japan. Most of us believe that this recent arrival of Spyro's adventure stock has come out of the recent release of that game in Japan I just thought it would be cool to find out how it actually is doing over there.

Ah yes, I figured the question of pictures would come up. Sorry, I guess I was so shocked to see it that I didn't even think of snapping a pic or two - my bad. I wasn't really thinking of posting this in the first place - I figured many others already would have known something and I was just one of the last to find out. I mean, when do new Skylanders releases ever show up in PA first? But after I saw that there was no mention of new 3 packs shipping on these forums, I figured I would say something so everyone who still needed one could be on the lookout (and maybe not have to pay aftermarket prices...)
I could take a picture now of course - but that wouldn't really prove anything other than I have a Boomer 3 pack in my possession. But I'm not out to prove anything anyway - just trying to be helpful. And it did actually get me to finally register for this forum (so I could post) that I've found so helpful myself. If anyone's in the vicinity of Northeast Philly, feel free to take a look and see what they still have there. In addition to the other Boomer pack, they had a series 1 Chop-Chop, Bash, and whoever else was with them 3 pack as well. Not sure what else... Happy hunting! |

Picture of your dated store receipt would do just as well, SkyForce.

RIP GhostRoaster. He's reanimated as TakeYourLemons but occasionally is resurrected from the beyond when needed. |

Really? You need pic proof? Someone could've found it in the bottom of a box in the stock room and put it out on the racks? I can believe that. Its not like he said Santa came all the way down from the north pole to give it to him.

I do not *need* proof. I'm just suggesting that if someone who is a zero "gems" brand new user on the forum makes a post claiming that an item is now possibly available in retail locations ... after being completely impossible to find for 6 months or longer ... it would significantly increase the credibility of the report if there was an image to support it. That's all. Sheesh.

Hey no problem, I completely understand the reason to question. I wouldn't want to be given false hope by some joker just playing games in an anonymous setting like this. Great idea about the receipt though - I can do that! So, being a new poster here (though I've been around for a while) can someone tell me the easiest way to post a picture on this forum?

Just upload an image to a hosting site (example: www.tinypic.com ), paste the [IMG] code here, then post it.

Photo evidence is always a good way to achieve credibility, especially if you are a new user. Camera phones are readily available, upload to tinypic of imgur.com is easy and free and you gain instant credibility. Particularly if you have something unique in the shot, EBay users do things like put a note with their user name in it/etc. indicating it wasn't lifted from somewhere else. No, you are not required to post a pic, but it immensely helps your case - and other figure hunters enjoy seeing those store photos as well.

I can confirm that some of the Spyro's Adventure Triplea ARE indeed being restocked! I saw several of them out at my local ToysRUS..
..Except that Boomer wasn't there. Or the Eruptor triple.

Great news! I think on the DAY that I received Boomer in the mail from a trade! *sigh* LOL!
Wish I could go back in time, to ANY of the multitude of times when I saw the triple pack in stores, but rejected it because I already had somebody, I think Prism Break, if he's in that pack... I really wanted Boomer, even back then.

I went to TRU Friday afternoon and they had 1 Wham Shell and a few Eruptor triples, as well as a swap force display, awesome but I didn't need any of them as I just went in there to look at the remenants of the Giants Cycle, there was a few pumpkin eye brawl and 1 gnarly tree Rex, and there was a few Sonic Boom/Stealth Elf/Wrecking Ball triples, that's all I remember, if you would like to see pics I will try to get back there before the next cycle starts.
