I'll post after I go tomorrow.

I hope you went before me. This was the last Prism Break on the shelf at High Tech.

Good to see you got everything. I didn't get around to posting but I was there at 8am so I got everything I needed.

Hey jklander! I'm from KW as well and trying to snag any of the W3 swappers before xmas too. I called 2 EBgames a couple nights ago and they had nothing. Hit up Toys R US Friday night and got the corelanders. Tried Wal Mart at Sunrise Centre this morning (Saturday) and there was nothing new. Let me know if you find them elsewhere!! Perhaps Wal Mart on Ira Needles is worth checkin? Not sure if I'll make it there today though. Cheers.

I'm in the downtown Toronto core.
I went to TRU at Yonge and Eglinton, they only have wave 1 skylanders, but they did have quite a few dune bugs. Also, BB eaton centre and FS Dundas Square wave 1, very few selection, they do have a Jolly Bumble Blast.
EBgames on Yonge St, across from Eaton Centre, only wave 1. But EBgames inside the Eaton Centre, I found wave 2 swappers like 2 Fire Kraken, 2 Grilla Drilla, Boom Jet, Night Shift. I just came back from there.

I'm going to check Target in Waterloo and Walmart in St. Jacobs tonight, will post what I find. Thanks for the heads up Deafmoose.

Awesome! Good luck!

Checked both stores last night, no wave 3 and stock was extremely low.

Burlington Toys R Us had pretty much everything. I picked up every one except for prism break and whirlwind. The only thing they didnt have was the wave 3 swappers

So, I was out and about again. EBgames outside the Toronto Eaton Centre now has 2 Grilla Drilla, 2 Boom Jet, and 1 Night Shift.

Hit a few stores today (Sunday). No luck at EBgames on Ottawa, Target on Ottawa and Walmart on Ottawa. And Walmart on Ira Needles was closed due to power outage.

Found Hyper Beam Prism Break, Horn Blast Whirlwind, Dune Bug, Phantom Cynder and Regular Smolderdash at Toys R Us in Quebec city Also, all Wave 2 characters are now available in almost all stores (it wasn't the case for the last few weeks), which makes it more likely to maybe find a green Scorp/Chop Chop/Rip Tide.

I found all 5 of the new cores at TRU in Brampton on Friday, before the big ice storm hit. Loving Dune Bug - great paint job.

Made it out to Square One Mall in Mississauga on Sunday - they got in a ton of Granite Crushers and had a few two-packs of the Fire Kraken/Grilla Drilla and Night Shift/Boom Jet swappers, as well as some Nitro Magna Charge/Free Ranger sets.

I haven't see anything new at any Wal-Marts in the area. In fact, most got a very generous re-stocking of wave 1 figures much to my disappointment.

I found 2 days ago in Montreal cote-des-neige Walmart all 3 wave 3 swapables.
Got the last stink bomb there but they had 3 more rabble rouser and 2 more spy rise.

Also got all the wave 3 core and TRU on Jean-Talon on Montreal on Friday.

Were there any nitro magna charge/rattle shake sets?

Anybody know of any Boxing Day deals on skylanders (other than the starter packs) at Canadian retailers anywhere?

Has anyone had luck finding these in stores?;
-3 swappers -stink bomb-spy rise-rouble rouser
-sheep wreck island
-2 light cores -countdown-whamshell

I've heard of one user finding the swappers in b.c.

I talked to my toys r us employee here in Burlington today and he said he had received one box of the wave 3 swappers last friday and almost immediately sold out (i had been there friday evening). whether he was bsing me or not, i dont know. but it did make me search all over town in case.

I still havent seen any physical sign of them yet though

We purchased the three wave 3 swappers in the Waterdown Walmart on the 19th or 20th. Couldn't believe it when my son pointed them out.

Found 1 spy rise at a walmart in edmonton

The Walmart on Upper James in Hamilton had a full restock of w1-w3 Swappers this morning. No new corelanders though.

SkylanderSteve, coppercreek in markham on 12/28/2013 had all 3 W3 swappers in boxes on a side rig near the electronics section. I asked to open them up just to see if any of the characters happen to be the core, instead found two boxes with the label SFR W3 on the side with 2 spyrise/2 stinkbombs/2 rumble rousers/1 free ranger/1 another figure i dont rememeber.

Just got Non-LC Smolderdash at TRU here in Surrey BC but no Dune Bug left

Checked Sunday (Dec 29), no W3 Swappers anywhere in Quebec City. TRU had the 5 W3 Core toys on Dec 22 though, so I'm a bit disappointed...

Nice triptronix!!! I hope you grabbed what you needed. I lucked out and found a rubble rouser today at a walmart...Still no elusive stink bomb for me.

Still no luck for W3 swappers at any of my usual Wal-Mart hunting grounds in Brampton/Mississauga/Milton, and I even dipped into the Oakville location and one on Highway-7. I tell ya, if anyone still hasn't added Zoo Lou, Roller Brawl or Slobbertooth to their collection, do it now. They'll either completely disappear from shelves for the rest of the Swap Force run, or they'll become the new Shroomboom/ Flashwing shelf warmers. Could go either way.

Was it confirmed anywhere that Canada was going to buck the trend of following the U.S. release pattern and have the W3 swappers show up at Wal-Mart first over Target? It's not impossible and all the sightings so far have been Wal-Mart, I'm just surprised the Target 'exclusivity' didn't carry over in this case.

Got all of the W3 Swappers and Cores here in Langley, BC.

What store would that be Tempest?

Walmart for the Swappers and Toys R Us for the Cores.

As I said the website has the same deals with free shipping on orders over $20. If you can post here you can punch in an order hopefully.

Credit card full lol... It's ok, I already have all of them, but for this price I wouldn't have minded having a few duplicates to do custom paints maybe.

I'm in the Kitchener area and still looking for wave 3 swappers. Anybody found them around here yet?

I read that gamestop USA is doing the giant sidekick deal later this month (spend $20 get a sidekick)

Does anyone know if EBGames canada will be doing the same deal???

Yeah, tons.

Low stocks and almost completely empty shelves in many stores in Quebec City, nothing new.

Went into EBgames to see if they finally received shipment for wave 3 but no. I did see two pack of swappers Fire Kraken/Grilla Drilla and Boom Jet/Night Shift for $27.99.

anyone aware yet if ebs here are doing the giants sidekick promo this saturday?

We might have to wait until may or october again this year to collect the giantkicks from ebgames.

can anyone confirm that theyre not doing it this saturday though?

I just got the latest EB Games email flyer, and there was no mention of any Skylanders promotion of any sort. Like SkylanderSteve, I'm also betting we'll get it later in the year.

The US just got the rest of Wave 3 (Battle/Adventure Packs, LightCores, and Swappers), so has anyone been to a Canadian Toys R Us lately? See any of the mentioned?

I'm going by tru today, will check it they have anything new in stock.

I got this at EB Games in Toronto just now.

Nothing at tru in Kitchener yet. Just the usual shelf fillers.

Checked Toys R us, EBGames, Wal-mart, Future shop, and Target in Kamloops (Interior BC) yesterday and none of them had any wave 3. Swappers were very sparse (only found hoot loop and free rangers).

Langley and Surrey BC Eb Games had LC Countdown and LC Wham-Shell but only minimum stocks so get them while you can.

Got LC Wham-Shell and Countdown at the Milton, Ontario EB Games. Will also echo that they had limited stock. They also had 1 each of Triple Packs C and D (the ones with Scorp, Big Bang Trigger Happy, Heavy Duty Sprocket, etc.). The clerk said at one point they had gotten in the new swappers as well.
