It's actually not a terrible bundle either. Wave 3 figures which aren't incredibly common yet, plus Wallop which also isn't incredibly common.

^Especially since the poor schmucks on eBay paid double or triple that just to get the "rare" figure. roflmao.

Well, it does speak to the fact that maybe they HAD to bundle these just to get rid of their inventory....hmmm.....

I do seem to recall similar type bundling, although I didn't partake. I did take advantage of last year's Swap Force variant "bundle" as well.

Sold out in an hour and a half? Doesn't pay to ever stay away from here it seems. Or sleep which was what I was doing...anyway it's possible that this varient/chase isn't going to be all that rare. Such as Jade Fire Kraken.

Like really how did they manage to get so many of them in the first place to offer this deal? I'm amazed at how mine has various rare used ones in stock like Boomer and Ghost Roaster. That's just too unlikely under normal circumstances and has to be from dead stock that they heald onto. Makes one wonder how many Kaos traps they are hoarding as well instead of putting them out for people to buy. They have been known for years to be such hoarders, creating demand and flipping high...all qualities which I feel isn't like how a national chain store should be having.

If anyone would like to know how I got one and still needs one, PM me. I can give you a secret method, but I don't want the scalpers to get a hold of it! smilie Shhhhh!

fyi, your mileage will vary. I was able to get 3 friends' orders this way too by having their info, but it really comes down to being super nice and sweet and buttering them up. smilie

I wouldn't compare this to Jade Fire Kraken, but to Gold Doom Stone. It was on sale several times...first in a bundle and then without. I think silver Stink Bomb was bundled only.

it's ok if they removed this bundle for now, chances are they don't have any others in stock but will in the future when more shipments come out. just got to be on the lookout for the single pack or bundle next time that's all. i'd probably have got it if i had the money

Taking that last ride through the sunset on skylanders. Hopefully a return of more classic spyro gameplay in the horizon.

We saw her once, just one but she and the packaging was badly mangled and I think her arm was broken so I passed it up. I sort of feel I should of got her now ):

The bundle was still available when I went to the page. I actually went through the process of purchasing it (just in case it would somehow work) until the error message saying this doesn't ship to Canada appeared.

Kinda like how we US Folks had to jump through hoops to get the Character Selector? :D

Tried playing with the HTML code on EBGames.com to try and trick an order through and had no luck. :(

UPS just dropped off my package from GameStop about 10 minutes ago (9 PM; seriously?) containing my Clear Tuff Luck. She is definitely a beauty.

Now what the heck do I do with Blastermind, Ka-Boom, Wallop, Gusto & Jawbreaker that came as part of the package? I already have all of them.

I just noticed the packing slip lists each figure individually and not as a bundle. I wonder if I would be able to return all of the figures except for Tuff Luck?

#43 Posted: 07:09:32 22/01/2015
Should be able to. I did that with the Swap Force bundle they did with Doom Stone & Stink Bomb.
PurpleSnurple Yellow Sparx Gems: 1264
#44 Posted: 08:28:53 22/01/2015
Depends on the gamestop employee. Most of them notice it's a bundle. I don't condone this, but my friend replaced clear tuff luck with regular tuff luck and returned the bundle.
defpally Emerald Sparx Gems: 4158
#45 Posted: 13:49:28 22/01/2015
Returning a portion of the bundle is against Gamestop's return policy, it's either all or nothing. Their policy specifically mentions this. However, yes, it really does depend on the employee doing it and whether they notice it or not. They also could potentially get in trouble for allowing it.
stoat2337 Gold Sparx Gems: 2270
#46 Posted: 15:13:40 22/01/2015
If it is listed on the invoice as a bundle, I could see that as the case, but if it lists them all individually, would this still be an issue? Like I said, I was able to return the starter pack from the Swap Force bundle. Granted, it might also been due to the employee I dealt with.

If you're going to do it, just be quiet and do it rather than asking questions on a public forum on whether they'll take it back and whether or not it's allowed. Seriously...you purchased a bundle just to get a chase variant knowing very well you have to purchase the other figures and now you want somebody to babysit you through a questionable partial return of the bundle where an employee would be very well in their right to deny you a partial return?

Just sell them $10 to people who don't have them. Help other fans.

Agreed. Bad form. It was a bundle because they wanted to get rid of excess stock.
