TRU Wave 3 Swappers Change [CLOSED]

#1 Posted: 04:51:21 22/02/2014 | Topic Creator
Has anyone else seen newer Wave 3 Swappers on different cards? I was in TRU tonight and they had Stink Bomb, Spy Rise, and Rubble Rouser but they were on different cards. The back of the card had about 10 different languages and flags, the peg hanger went about 3/4 of the way across the top and there was a chocking hazard label on the bubble. Anyone else seen this?

They may have have shipped the UK figures there.

Same figure. Just different packaging.

Yes they are here in Utah as well. I pointed it out to a worker and they laughed and said i know to much about it. I found that rather funny

I saw two of the EU figures in TRU the other day. I half assumed someone had impatiently ordered them, then exchanged them for the US versions. Wonder why they shipped EU versions over here.

The cardboard backing is different.

I noticed some a while back with the warning stickers, but didn't pay attention to the backs. I just assumed they had added the stickers. Interesting.

Sounds like they are getting rid of european stock in the states. I don't take this as a good sign.

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

This also could be a shipment screw-up.

What do you mean "not a good sign"?

Hey is there anything you want me to bring for the rest of the week and if so it’s so cool that you can do something and just do it like that

I guess he means that they might randomly decide to change packaging, or they're going to keep US stock low.

I bet they are not selling well overseas. Amazon.de has Gill Grunt anchors away for 4.63 euros that's cheap and others are on sale for silly prices. Go figure....

If stock is sitting in Europe...they could start shipping the boxes here...why spend the extra money to repackage them.

Yeah I went to my Gamestop yesterday and they had 2 Spy Rise with the European style hook, really weird seeing not only Gamestop but even big chains like Toysrus getting these...

Low sales and re-directing stock elsewhere.

Well Skylanders flopping overseas wouldn't be a surprise IMO. Aren't the figure releases a bit more spred out to the point where it's almost like the EU fans feel they'll never get it?

I saw this while away in Orlando, had the UK peg style.
