Gearshift wasn't there when I went to the midnight release at ToysRUs, and I've gone to Walmart and Target since then, and still no sign of her. Is anyone else having trouble finding her in stores?

Some people got lucky but Gearshift was only for preorder and won't be available now until next year I'm sorry to say.

Oddly enough, try ebay. Gearshift is going for around 15-20 bucks including shipping right now. (I expect that number to rise as they get bought up, though.)

Our Toys R Us and Target has tons of them. I'm in the DFW area. Not sure where you are.

Most stores probably just held back the Gearshifts the first night to make sure they had the preorders covered. My TRU shelved the leftovers the the next day and had plenty.

I haven't been back to TRU since the first day. I'll try back there again. Thanks.

Amazon has them in stock, I just checked. I got mine from there after not being able to get one on launch day. BTW she is awesome in game.

Why do I keep spending so much money on Skylanders? And why is my wife not yelling at me for it?

Amazon.com have got plenty which you can buy. I even live in the UK and I got one from there so anyone from the UK might be interested in this comment. smilie I have to say though she is a fantastic figure and worth the difficulty of finding her smilie. Hope this helps.

Plenty of Gearshift online for the time being...TRU and Amazon definitely have them as of right now...haven't checked other sites.

Thanks! I was disappointed when she wasn't there at first, but didn't worry 'cause I figured she'd be around. Then I started to worry when 2 other stores didn't have her. I think I'll order her online just to be sure. Can't wait to see her play!

Yeah, even if your TRU is out, try some other stores. She will dry up soon because she isn't in the current Waves, but you can probably find her for a week or two.

At first, I thought Gearshift would be available only for pre-order at GameStop. However, I just went to Walmart, Target and TRU, and realized that she isn't too exclusive. TRU has more Skylanders figures than other retail stores, including Gearshift. I am so satisfied that she is available in Wave 1 not jut as an exclusive.

I've seen her on the pegs at TRU and Target.

You don't work for Game Stop do you? My Gamestop told me the same thing but that just isn't true at all. Every retailer in the greater ABQ NM area (that actually had Trap Team out) had Gearshift. Walmart, TRU, Bestbuy and Target all had them in abundance. See links below for Gearshift if anyone else missed out.
