Nope, afraid not. It is encouraging that someone has though!

Smyths toys have Spotlight, Blackout, Echo and Rocky Roll listed as in stock on their website

Was about to post the same thing, also they have the new minis packs in stock in selected stores, mine being one of them. As for the wave 4 cores they also appear to be in stock in stores. Also the KAOS trap is in stock in my store as well. Activision really are spoiling us UK residents this year.

EDIT: Light and Dark single traps in stock too. As well as the new triple trap packs!

I'm most excited to get my hands on Rocky Roll to join my booga boogian army!

Quote: TTD

I'll have a look tomorrow. I literally only have £10 to spend on skylanders so I'll only grab 1 (probably blackout). I'll get the rest when I get paid on Saturday.

Yeah that'd be my pick if we had limited cash to be honest. He is amazing looking in game and physically.
My fave figure so far has to be Knight Light. The wings are awesome. I love Scratch for the same reason.

TRU also got their stock of the new triple trap packs today.

I emailed Smyths Toys yesterday about the expected arrival dates of the exclusive Easter themed Skylander Trap and Minis.

They said they had no confirmed date for a "restock" of them (have they ever had them in??) so that was a waste of time.

Noticed on anther thread that restocks of the Light and Dark expansions have been seen in TRU in the US, hopefully a sign that we might be getting some soon.

Spoke to soon

Was just about to post about the easters up on smyths now, only gone for the minis the trap compared I'm not fussed by probably doesnt help we didnt get the legendary traps, but ah well

All the new minis packs are IN STOCK on Smyths site now to purchase!
Water Minis -http://www.smythstoys.com/uk/e...-and-thumpling/
Fire Minis - http://www.smythstoys.com/uk/e...-and-weeruptor/
Life Minis - http://www.smythstoys.com/uk/e...lf-and-barkley/
Air Minis - http://www.smythstoys.com/uk/e...ze-and-pet-vac/


EDIT: Activision Support updated this page to confirm new shipments of Kaos trap are being made.

That's odd. The easter minis still say TBC online now. I wonder if they took the orders down for a reason?

Yeah the easter characters are back to TBC but not the easter trap. Not sure why it was changed back, maybe Smyths are waiting for easter week(next week) to release them or they are street dated, or maybe its because of the the wrong paint on power punch jet vac, maybe they had to get sent back. All the minis packs are still in stock!

EDIT: The wave 4 cores have also went to TBC 2015 as well, it must be some sort of mistake.

Just ordered Echo and the Breeze and Pet-Vac Minis from Smyths, and it went through fine.

After how low the stock of Echo apparently is in America, I will be happy if I get mine this easily.

Maybe they only got a small stock?

I chose next day delivery as my son wants them for Easter and I've received an email saying they'll be delivered by DPD tomorrow

I really do hope I can get the Easter ones... before Easter...

I managed to order the rest of the Minis from Smyths, but the rest of the figures are currently out of stock.

My local GAME finally got new traps, so I picked up the Kaos triple pack the other day - I've given up hope of Tesco and Sainsburys getting any further stock as they only seem to replenish the old stuff. Might trade some stuff for the rest of them.

I got the four wave 4 cores today before the went out of stock. I was gonna order the minis today but now they are all out of stock but the Water minis so I'll have to wait until they are in stock.

Just checked the easter characters and they are in stock in my local Smyths store now so might be worth checking.

Toys R Us have a new gift pack, never seen this before. Includes Springtime Trigger Happy, Whisper Elf and water trap containing Outlaw Brawl and Chain. For the price of £12.99, it seems pretty good. Link - http://www.toysrus.co.uk/Toys-...ft-Set(0152936)

Went into Smyths today and got both Spotlight and Blackout.

They didn't have them out on the shop floor, had them behind the counter, so try asking if you go in store.

Also bought a fair few of the £1 Giants figures

Now I just need to wait for The Easter Trap and Eggselent Weeruptor and I will be 100% don't with all the character I wanted from Trap Team.

GAME.co.uk have the wave 4 cores in stock, and they're included in the 3 for 2 offer.

Just back from Smyth's. They had all 4 cores (at 3 for 2), the 3 Easter (at £5.99 ea), and 4 remaining Mini double-packs.

The Game I went in had sold out of the Cores and didn't have the Easter 3 in yet (don't think they had the mini doubles either, but I wasn't looking for them at the time). The other Games in the area wouldn't answer the phone.

The 3 Easter ones are Smyths exclusives

Mine arrived yesterday and I picked up the Nightmare Express pack from Tesco as well

Just need the Light & Dark packs to reappear now

That gift pack is showing as £20 online which is ridiculous for 2 repackaged figures and a trap

Is this confirmed?

Yep, the Easter figures are Smyths exclusives this year, thanks to the Skylanders Universe official magazine

^ Thanks, i'd better place an order then!

Bit surprised but Tesco have Wave 4 - http://www.tesco.com/direct/se...questid=4692284
Hope all the stock lasts, need to wait til next week to buy lots and lots of these characters with birthday money. If Tesco do 3 for 2 I will be buying from there, they are the cheapest place to buy from.

My favourite part is they named the new Earth core Skylander "Rocky Road"

That's a shame, I would really like the Minis from Season 1 that I don't have...

Those who are scouting Tesco Extras for clearance swap force stock be sure to look carefully. I did a triple take today when I found a lightcore star strike had been attached to a trap team jet vac piece of backing cardboard. £1.27 bargain!

Okay, over the past 3 days I've been searching around and spent alot, obtaining a total of 14 skylanders and 6 traps. I'm going to detail my observations.
2nd April - Started at toys r us, got Nitro Head Rush, Legendary Bushwhack & Gusto. As well as trap triple pack - air, undead and magic. Got free £10 gift voucher.
Then went to game, got the only Echo, Bat Spin and Trail Blazer they had.
Finally went to Argos and got Tuff Luck, Cobra Cadabra and Chopper. Also worth noting the minis are part of 3 for 2 in Argos unlike all other stores.

3rd April - Smyths - got eggscellent weeruptor.
Argos Boucher Road - Light Rocket trap and Dark Handstand trap.

4th April - Tesco Carrickfergus- High Five, Tread Head and Fist Bump.

Observations:
Toooo many GUSTOs, every store was flooded with him or had no other trap masters but him.
Fist Bump & Tread Head numbers are dipping dramatically. Only all my nearest tesco stores have them, everywhere else has stocked out. Best get them before they're completely gone.
Smyths restocked on easter variants.
Never seen blackout or spot light, (where are these guys and gals? )
Tesco have Knight Light and Knightmare instore as well as Short Cut and Thunderbolt.

Sorry for mistakes in any of my posts over last week as I'm using my ps4 to access this site.
Will post pictures and add information to my guestbook in a few days when laptops fixed.

@TTD I work at TRU in UK and they are being given away with the starter packs, but they are also available to buy separately. There's plenty of signage in our store to make sure people are aware of this offer, can't speak for the one you visited though. It's normal to be able to buy the item that's given away free with certain purchases at TRU.

For what it's worth, I just ordered all three "Gift Pack" bundles from Toysrus.co.uk and the website has the BOGO offer - I threw in a copy of Trap Team 3DS - it was only a few bucks more and since the EU version is packaged totally different from the US version, I figured why not?

@TTD yes we have all three gift packs. (Checked all the springtime trigger happys but no flocked ones - you never know!). You have a point, at least the other staff in my branch direct customers to me to answer any SL questions.

Interestingly the boxes they arrived in were labelled with stickers showing as 'gift pack 2' (3 and 4 too), but obviously there were only 3 Easter figures last year to re-pack and only 3 variations in stores, so unsure what the reference is to 4 gift packs is. Don't expect to get anymore delivered either, as lots were received, probably a one off shipment. Don't want to start speculation over a 4th pack, it's highly unlikely, just seemed very odd!

I have a few questions to ask.

1. Has anyone in the UK seen blackout, spotlight in stores recently?
2. Does asda have wave 4 rocky roll, blackout or spot light stocked in stores?
3. What Smyths stores that you've been in has the skylanders giants triple packs, what store and what ones?
4. Any news on light and dark expansions being re stocked in the UK?
5. Does anyone know the figure packing amounts? Like how much of each core and each trap master in a box and are spotlight and blackout included?
Thanks in advance.

1: Only seen one delivery of them at my local TRU, sold out of those now. I did come across a Spotlight and Echo in my local Tesco Extra on Friday.
2: Pass-I don't check Asda
3: Been to two Smyths. Milton Keynes branch just had Scorpion Striker Battlepack (Zap, hotdog) left after the first day of the £1 sale. On Wednesday this week Beckton - Gallions Reach also had a few Dragonfire Cannon Battle Packs (Chop Chop, Shroomboom).
4: Not seen anything but I didn't expect to around the time the single versions were released. USA getting them in recently is promising though.
5: Already answered by others.

Is anyone still finding the Rebel Lob Gobin traps at their local game store? I can't find the. Anywhere. Might have to hit ebay.

This is copied from a topic that I just made

I was just a TRU (UK) and I found this:

It was £20.00 (Equal to US $29.99). However, at the back it clearly states 'not for resale'

I since found out that Toys R Us are supposed to be giving these out for free with a purchase of the skylanders trap team starter pack (In the UK). GAME have these in stock and are only giving them away to people who buy the starter pack, however toys r us are selling them separately and I don't believe they are giving them away for free with the starter pack.

That's smart. Throw in some crap that's hanging around to get rid of the extra stock. That's literally a box filled with stuff they can't sell now.

These things sold out everywhere within a week pretty much, ebay is your only choice

@ImDoubleTrouble
1. I saw them along with every other wave 4 Skylander at Smyths which is where I bought my Blackout and I bought my Spotlight from Asda.
2. I think Asda has all of the new wave, but the only ones I've seen at my local Asda so far are Spotlight, Echo, Short Cut and Thunderbolt. I might've seen Rocky Roll as well, but I can't remember.
3. I only go to the Derby one. I can't remember which packs they had, but they had loads of different ones.

Well, yea I'd gathered that. The whole point of me asking on here is that you never know what's happened elsewhere. What if a store hadn't put their stock out or Skylanders aren't popular in that particular town. You don't know unless you ask. But thanks for your input.

Does anyone know when the Wave 3 and 4 Minis come back in stock online?

Just been in Argos and picked up love potion pop fizz. Also anyone needing spotlight and blackout, its your lucky day, they can now be reserved for pick up on the next. So i've reserved them and will FINALLY have them both. Now just to find Rocky Roll.

EDIT: Smyths appear to have removed spotlight and blackout from their website. Maybe they're being discontinued?

I'll just leave this info here incase it helps anyone else out who needed the gift boxes.

1) Purchase 360 version of trap team for £29.99 at TRU and pick up free gift box (punk shock, fryno, trigger happy)
2) Check trade in price on CEX Website: https://uk.webuy.com/product.p...41#.VTUxLJM9bQM Currently £20 cash/£26 instore.
3) Show proof of trade in price to GAME for them to beat by £1 (Manager check may need to be required)
4) Result=Gift Pack for £9 + £21 Cash or Gift Pack for £3 plus £27 store credit for more skylanders.

Yes it's a little more effort but I didn't feel the gift pack was worth £20 on it's own.

Points to note:
The best trade in price is currently on the 360 version. The other versions are much lower.
I am not responsible for any changes in trade in prices Double/Triple check before you buy.
If you buy more than one and want to trade in the extra water trap that's an extra £1 at GAME, standard water trap price.

Picked up a Knight Mare from Tesco as I'm tired of waiting for the dark expansion pack to appear and hopefully this will keep my son quiet until it does.

Kicking myself as they also had Knight Light last week and I didn't pick that up.

Getting frustrated about the lack of Dark/Light expansion packs and lack of info on future availability..don't want to have to pay ebay scalper prices.

Also I went in my local TRU on Saturday and the Skylanders section was looking a little sparse. Don't know if they are starting to reduce their stock.
