Found both of the Skymiibo packs at Walmart in Calgary this evening. Still had 3 of each left, which was surprising since it was 7pm.

Found the Skymiibo packs at Wal-Mart in Brampton, ON as well. Also saw the Kaos Trophy at EB Games at Shopper's World, Brampton. Looked like it was a whole case of them, plenty to go around.

Anybody live around Toronto, ON or Mississauga, ON? At Meadowvale Town Centre EB Games, I mentioned this in another post, there are three stockpiles of used skylanders if you like. Like 90% of ones from SSA, SG, and several from SSF. I've also found some rare variants like Molten Hot Dog and Nitro Magna Charge.
Oops, did I just say that?

Yes, I also noticed that people are dumping extensive collections at EB Games. I went on a road trip last weekend to Edmonton, and stopped into some EB Games as I made my way north from Calgary. In Red Deer, they had the TT Light expansion (trap, figure, and adventure piece) individually wrapped, the Dark TT starters, and heaps of other harder to find trap team figs (Blastermind, Wallop, Kaboom, etc) and a wide variety of traps. Also had alts like Jade Fire Kraken, Punch Pop Fizz, Gnarley Tree Rex, and even a Giants Mini Jini. Too much to list.
Stopped in Leduc, and they had an amazing selection of harder to find older figs, such as all 3 SSA Legendaries, Blue Bash, Red Drilly, GITD Sonic Boom and GITD Cynder, several Ghost Roasters and Boomers, Giants Legendaries, and lots of Swap Force Figures. Even in Calgary yesterday I found a large selection of Swap Force characters such as Rip Tide, Trap Shadow, Nitro Freeze Blade, Stink Bomb, and much much more. They even had a used Kaos trap! Crazy. There have also been lots of people posting their collections on Kijiji. Many say their kids have outgrown the game...

Found the single Kaos Trophy pack at EB Games yesterday in Calgary. Also had a large re-stock of Nightfall, in case anyone missed the first wave.

Lucked out at the EB Games in Milton, ON going through their pre-owned racks. Found a Snake Air Trap, which was the only sculpt I was missing (besides Yawn), and also the 'standard' Hand of Fate from the Nightmare Express set, which I had skipped after buying the Legendary. I also saw a Kaos trap, and Super Shot Stealth Elf and the Sky trophy. Some older figures even came with their cards and stickers.
Really I wish we had something new - Tomb Buggy, Legendary Roller Brawl, anything...

I'd like to know when the Power Blue figures will be released here. Not that I play SuperChargers, but I just would like a Power Blue Splat or Trigger Happy in the box to display in my room somewhere, as I really love the idea of this alt-deco type. Then perhaps if I start playing this game one day, I'll open it and use it.

Does everyone have Nitro Stealth Stinger? I saw it before Christmas but didn't buy because I was getting the game with some vehicles from my children. I didn't receive that one and can't find it anywhere except for Amazon or Ebay.
Tried ordering from the new Target for Canada page but it's not secure. I found all the toys minus Nitro Stealth Stinger. Noticed that they are waiting to release the Life. I'm not playing until I get the toy. |

You saw it in a store in Canada? I ordered mine on the international Target page during the Black Friday deals, got no issue.

Before Target closed its doors on Canada at the end of 2014, I began seeing Nitro Head Rush at EB Games and TRU. Did anybody see her there ever? Were there other nitros at those two places ever since?

Yeah when Target closed, the stock of Nitro Head Rush were on the way to the stores, so they sent them in other stores (Wal-Mart, Microplay also). I have never seen Nitro Stealth Stinger and Nitro Soda Skimmer though.

Sorry I should have wrote Stealth Stinger. The regular green one. I saw one at EbGames before Christmas and haven't seen on since.
I tried to use the international Target page but it didn't have the security on the top of the page or with the lock. It was greyed out instead of locked. My husband looked at the webpage and said it was missing security. |

Grabbed the Roller Brawl pack, and also got the Soda Skimmer single, and was surprised to find a Spitfire single... didnt know they were out. Has anyone seen the Hot Streak single or Stealth Elf single?

Awesome! Thank you! I'm really starting to get frustrated with this yearly hunt for Skylanders. I much prefer the Disney Infinity, LEGO Dimensions, and even AMiibo more definitive release dates. I think its time Skylanders takes a page from other Toys To Life.

Yesterday all Walmarts in Southern Ontario had ZERO Skylanders, today they all had the Spring Ahead vehicle! I got them to price match Toys R Us, because TRU had all of this wave except Easter versions. I was lucky enough to find the Bronze Tomb Buggy too, and the store had been open for over a half hour! LOL

Finally got my hands on the life and air mini packs from trap team. If anyone else is still missing them they're actually pretty cheap on amazon.com right now. After conversions, shipping, and taxes they were pretty much retail price

I wish the flyer gave us more details on what's going to actually be on sale and for how much. All it says is Start Pack for $39.99 and more deals in store which isn't very informative. I have a feeling it's going to be a shadow of the sale the states got. I mean they got some extra figures for free when buying a starter pack and we aren't

I went today, all there was were regular sales on SuperChargers packs, albeit they have a fair amount of Eggcited Thrillipede where I am. They said they don't know when they are getting the power blues, but I was at another place a few days ago and they said a few weeks or so. Perhaps next month?

How long do we have to ask for a discount on something we purchased before a sales and how does it work? Do you get a full refund then purchase it again, or you ask them to give you back the "extra" money you paid earlier?

I also picked up my Power Blues here in Calgary today at TRU. There were about 8 of each figure on the shelves, with a 1 per customer limit. I wonder if any other retailers will be getting them, or if they will be a TRU Exclusive here in Canada.

TRU in Victoria, BC doesn't have them out yet. The employee checked the back and there are boxes of Skylanders items but he's not allow to open them yet.
Looks like I have to wait till tomorrow. Walmart and Ebgames don't have them. No boxes in the back for EbGames. I did see that you could order it online at Walmart Canada. |

I've never done it at TRU to be honest. The receipt lists 45 days for returns - I suppose it's trickier if the same item isn't actually still on the shelf. I've done it for EB where they put stock out on a Thu, then I get home and see a BOGO sale for Friday in my email. Quote: arenne
I think the ad said they were a TRU exclusive.

Anybody heard of Buy N Sell City in places within Southern Ontario? One just opened at Battleford Square of Mississauga if anybody lives around there. Just saying they have plenty of pre-owned skylanders there, even those in Trap Team, but I don't know for how much. They even have some rares like Series 2 Bash.
