They had a small handful in my local Target Canada (Ontario), fewer of the swappers than the small figures just FYI. I could post a picture as they are going to be open shortly, but it doesn't really prove where they were bought. Keep your eyes peeled Canadians!

Which Target in Ontario are you talking about?
Trying to get a ride to the one in Oakville but my mom is just rolling her eyes doubting my intel simple because she thinks Target is useless

welp guess it wasn't the Oakville store then since they had nearly no skylanders period let alone any for wave 2.
Given how little space they have for skylanders at that store I'm crossing it off my list of places worth checking

I did not find any wave2 at local Target. However, EB Games just got them in today. All wave2 characters are on the shelf.

I saw Riptide and Scorp at the EB Games in the Toronto PATH underground. Gonna wait on the triple packs for those guys, but good to know wave 2's starting to hit Canada. If only they had Gorilla Drilla...

Eb games at the Oakville town center only got some of the swapforce characters in for wave 2, everyone but Fire Kraken. They didn't get any normal size guys in.
checked Toys r us at the Town center while I was there, no swap force figures but they had all the new normal size figures. Getting nearly all of wave 2 in one swoop, priceless

The Wal-Mart in Milton got in the new swappers, and I picked up Grilla Drilla and Boom Jet. Night Shift and Fire Kracken had a few too many paint errors for my liking.
Also an interesting comment from the clerk at the EB Games which was my second stop - from his understanding, they are no longer doing 'waves' for Swap Force. His impression was you're no longer going to be seeing months of one set of characters, followed by a new wave while the first set gets retired. Rather the characters will be rolled out as quickly as possible, and you'll get a better assortment on the shelves. How much of that ends up being true, I don't know. He also mentioned another positive change which was while they still can't order individual figures like with Infinity, they at least know what assortment will come with each box. Whereas it was a blind buy before. I believe that's been mentioned elsewhere in the forums too.

swap force has more characters then giants did. I hoping that Wave 3 indeed hits before december as several posts indicate wave 3 is scheduled for the US approx. november 15th 2013.
FYI- Walmart at markville mall had tons of the wave 2 swappers but no core figures (as of yesterday at 3pm) |

Yeah I went there last weekend when they opened, they had a bunch of crap. "Hey!We opened up a new Target!Swap force must came out, so we're sure everyone sill want S2 Cynders and Shroomboom!" I'll have to check target in Place Versailles. Beats me why they put 2 targets next to one another, they're like 3 minutes between each other e_ e |

LOVING the local chatter, LOL!
I actually only checked a Target once - Place Vertu - and that was before Swap Force came out, getting kind of curious what their display is like... I found the Skylanders display kind of small when I went...
