Got my whole haul - definitely not disappointed so far!

I am very disappointed with my day so far. I hate Smyths.

Right now I'd highly recommend calling them to check on your order.
Then if it isn't coming you can ask them to change it to in store pickup.

Went to Tesco Seacroft in Leeds at 8am to find nothing on the shelves or pegs.

Another guy was there who asked at the electrical desk if they had anything. They eventually brought out several boxes but all they had was ps3 and x360 starter packs, the Gill Grunt and Mini exclusive and the Mirror of Mystery adventure pack.

They said that was all they had but might be getting more 'later'.

Wasn't intending on buying anything but ended up buying the starter pack at £49 as this matches the best online pre-order price I'd seen.

Going back at lunchtime so will check if anything else has arrived.

Pretty disappointing as on the Disney Infinity 2.0 launch day they had all the figures in 3 different places instore including a dedicated cardboard display stand.

Are Activision not spending any money on promo at launch?

We will try calling later.

Also a heads up...the adventure packs are currently 19.95 Euros at Amazon.es plus shipping which still works out cheaper than any UK price.

I got the Spiderman DI2.0 pack plus a couple of figures and they ended up being shipped from amazon UK so arrived pretty quickly.

Wait, GAME won't sell traps by specific molds? I was counting on getting the ones I need from them since they sell internationally.

Are toys r us doing any buy one get one cheaper deals? Are there any deals anywhere or can I just order online? I'm debating going to the shop tonight or ordering online now....help! Also, I can't find gearshift on the tru website?

Just got my dark edition from Game. Just waiting for Nitro from Asda now could be as late as 7pm though

Just got back and got:
All Wave 1 And my Starter pack is 1 hour away from DPD

Who was the lowest stock?

None I went to ASDA an they hadn't even put them out yet so she went through the boxes and found them for me

anyone know where wave 2 traps are?

Hey guys, I can't really link pictures on here since I'm on my phone, buyout if you check out my Tumblr page I will be posting pictures throughout the day showing what I find at the stores I visit.

http://balphagor.tumblr.com/

I just received my Smyths order, and I didn't get Gearshift! They said I would receive it. Did anyone else not receive her free?

Doesn't help matters for me that the GAME website refuses to fully load on my phone for some reason,too. If anyone buys traps online from them, please say if they send a random mold from Wave 1 or 2 or if you can choose somehow. Thanks in advance!

I won't find out till I get home (hopefully).

I will post as soon as I do know though.

My Smyths order didn't even get dispatched. I hope in can be cancelled because I'm buying it at the store.

Went back to Tesco and a lady was setting up the display

Looked like all of Wave 1 and 2, single and triple packs of traps but no prices were displayed so don't know how much they are.

Has anyone seen the Mirror of Mystery in any stores?

Mirror of Mystery and gearshift are in good supply at smyths today as well as Bushwack none of these were in TRU near me

Also i hope this is allowed but i have a Riot shield Shredder Trap unopened that i would like to swap for the Outlaw Brawl and Chain Trap (uk of course and hopefully west mids / worcs area)

My smyths order arrived today got the trap & battle pack but no gearshift , so messaged them/tweeted ... Waiting on a response :-(

I think a lot of people are in the same boat. I didn't get her either.

I've message them, but I'm guessing that they might ship her separately later on. Fingers crossed anyway.

+1 for the "no gearshift" form Smyths toys.

A little annoyed but I am sure they will sort it. Of course not having her on day 1 will bug me forever.

I got Gusto, Chopper, Funny Bone and Torch at ASDA.

I got Mirror of Mystery and both Trap Triples from Smyths.



Smyths has all Wave 1 except Wildfire but only Mirror of Mystery for Wave 2.

My game was dispatched so I hope I get it tomorrow but it will most likely be Monday.

Here's a heads up guys. Game have brought back the skylanders club, but that's not the best part. QUICKDRAW RATTLE SHAKE will be the 3rd reward for buying 12 skylanders trap team items.
Full Details Here:
http://www.game.co.uk/webapp/w...4&storeId=10151

I think I'll be buying a lot of skylanders from game this year.
EDIT: Fixed the broken Link.

Smyths are now sending me gearshift

Anyone manage to find wave 2 Traps? We got the figures but only wave one Traps...

not specifically related to UK question....but does anyone know if Barkley is likely to be sold seperately/in any of the team packs? I see Gusto is available seperately, would hate to be forced to buy the 3ds pack for 1 single mini

Most of them are on toysrus
http://www.toysrus.co.uk/index..._start_index=50

Just 5 missing

On darkspyro it says there are 15 traps in wave 2 but no websites have them other 5

I have a question for anyone who ordered the dark edition from game. Did you all receive the dark edition starter pack already or is there anyone who didn't receive their's today?Also, did everyone get outlaw brawl and chain with their delivery?

I haven't received my dark edition yet and it was dispatched and shipped on Tuesday, so I'm a bit confused what the hold up is.

EDIT: Made the question being asked, to make more sense.

I received Outlaw Brawl and chain

Also didnt get gearshift with smyths so i just went and bought her

I'm so upset that I didn't manage to get the Mirror of mystery AND my 3ds starter was missed because they didn't deliver it to my nabour like they were supposed to.

another question....about the Game Skylanders Trap Team Club....

I know from reading it that you have to join instore online...and that the first purchase to join has to be 9.99 or more.....

I'm wondering.

1) Does that first purchase count as item #1 to reach the 12 goal.

2) Do all subsequent spends have to be instore only?

Wave 2 Traps Where can i get them?

1. I don't think the first purchase does count as its before they give you the skylanders reward card, but I'm not totally sure.
2. I think it will only count with in store purchases as they have to scan the skylanders reward card so it counts to the total of items bought. Online there is no place to enter your skylanders reward card number to. So to be safe go with buying in store.
Hope this helps.

thanks.....

bit of a pain, as hard to get to a Game store for me.....I'll find a way somehow......didn't need to for the previous Swap Force club as managed to get the "exclusive figure" sent from netherlands I think it was (memory a bit vague now). Hopefully there'll be some european country, like Amazon Italy or somewhere that will have the figure for direct order instead of messing about, especially as Game is generally more expensive per figure anyway

I now totally hate smyths didnt get gearshift with my preorder which i was promised....the paintjobs were from what i saw of the figures i got from toys r us not as fantastic as they were supposedly gonna be, got the best ones i could....but pretty dissapointed compared brent cross one is huge and so little stock no mirror of mystery, hopefully smyths will deliver mine next week as they are now out of stock....as my packages didnt turn up till 3pm when i was out im kinda now regretting ordering it from them....

If it is being delivered by royal mail, you may get it tomorrow, as they do deliver on saturdays, although it depends on the area so if they don't in your location then yeah, monday it seems for you.
I just hope the royal mail deliver my dark edition tomorrow as i would hate to wait till after the weekend to play, especially since the order dispatched on the same day as everyone else.

It said on the email that it would come Monday.

Oh Ok, well I hope mine comes tomorrow. Must feel annoying knowing that you have to wait on a pre-ordered game that you have paid for, that really should be delivered for release day.

Thanks GR. Couldn't find them in the store so I'll just order the ones they have in stock!

Went into Smyths today and bought...

The Wii Starter Pack (son is getting a Wii U for b'day)
Both Adventure packs
Both triple pack traps
All available trap masters (9 I think)
All new core characters (5 I think)

Got the cashier to call the manager and said "Is there a discount available for someone buying £300 worth of Skylanders on launch day?"
Him: Can't do discount, not allowed. Would you like a free Giant?
Me: No thanks, got all those.
Him: ok, I'll let you have a trap master for free.
Me:

Had a nice chat with him afterwards too. Brought the bill down to £285 roughly

What did you do/say???

I emailed but didn't receive ANY response.

I bought the Wii version for the Wii U download. It's STILL downloading. This is ridiculous.
