Want to talk Delay? Mine is stuck in customs since 18th and it sucks. I guess I'll just buy it April the 7th because mine might not even be let go before then. I dislike the us mail..........

That is always a risk when making orders internationally. I had one get stuck that way for like 3 weeks after it being randomly chosen. I got it with the corner of the box torn open so I guess they could look inside.

Sounds like karma from you insisting about the wrong release date.

They can just open the whole dang box and see its just a dang toy. Gee just my luck. It always sucks.

It is not that simple. There are lots of things that could be attempted to smuggle in through figures that could cause issues. And with the volume of packages coming into a country at a given time, they don't get to them all right away.

Amazon Germany says that they just shipped mine out via UPS. Strangely enough from Gourock, Inverclyde, UK (Scotland)?! I was wondering why they uncombined it from my German Doctor Who DVDs, it's not even in Germany. Oh well!

Anyway it came up to $31.34 USA shipped according to the receipt so it wasn't too bad. Now I'm so ready to pounce when the wave 5 are up for ordering. Totally not waiting for the USA, I'm ordering it from the first Amazon possible.

Well, everyone, I finally got it. My order from the UK through eBay arrived back on Thursday. So here's what I have to say about the Cursed Tiki Temple Level Pack:

NOTE for those who have not purchased/imported this pack, most of the items below will be marked as spoilers

Very fun experience; The level, the imaginite parts, Wild Storm, what is there NOT to like about this pack?

Based on a different forum I created



Also for my "Sensei Voices in Skylanders: Imaginators" Topic

I've played with Both of Wild Storm's Upgrade paths

According to official Skylanders Twitter, the release date for the Cursed Tiki Temple Level Pack in the United States will be April 7th.



I look forward to the Lost Imaginite Mines. But what I don't look forward to Blobbers and his nasally voice, judging that he announces the title instead of the usual announcer who we still don't know whose voice it is, Blobbers will be the storyteller for the level.

It got here tonight. So stoked Wildstorm is a beast. Best Sensi I would say. Just Awesome.

Anyone in retail starting to see these coming off the trucks for April 7? (In the back...instock but not on the shelves because of street date)

That's still over a week away. It's not completely unheard of to start getting things like that this early, but stores don't want to stash a bunch of inventory they aren't allowed to sell, so it's more likely that these will come trickling in next week.

Nothing has arrived at my work yet.

Have eyes and ears at a couple other stores in the area and nothing there yet as well..

My pack from amazon.de was delivered today and Wild Storm does look great!

It's been released in Australia today Grave Clobber, Pain-Yatta, the Dark crystals and Mystical Tae Kwon Crow as well

No stores near work have one so I'm gonna have to pick it up afterwards

Found in Ventura, CA Toys R US !


Don't care for the character too much myself....

No street date/register lock on this figure?

I think a street date is irrelevant. Even if there was one, you could kindly explain this pack has already been delayed and it would be great if a manager could override it and you shouldn't have difficulty buying it. It made it though... US packaging. It's on like Donkey Kong!

i finally got my tiki temple with wild storm and grave clobber now... its feels like a huge weight have been lifted of my shoulders... 4 left (include the green chompy mage), i already got the xmas variant but it just dont feel right... thats why 4 left.. the big question will activision deliver these now..

for those that have followed my outburst over wild storm and grave clobber earlier... these was not sold online here at, or released at my local toy r us.. (my is different from usa) so was just lucky to find these two from wave 4 in another shop(that also didnt put them up for online sale).. this tells me that the the wave 4 and 5 will be very limited..

yes i know about amazon, but no i am not gonna import these, yes i can, but its gonna double and triple the price...

Just saw Cursed Tiki Temple on the shelf at a Target in East Texas. When I tried to buy it I was informed it was register locked for the 7th and they wouldn't sell it to me.

I find it incredibly inappropriate that it would be register locked, seeing as how we've already been inconvenienced greatly.
Obviously, Activision doesn't care about us.

Activision only cares about our wallet, always has. Are you new to this?

But as far as this date, it isn't about caring, it is about coordinating a retail release date - likely associated with ads and so all retailers have an equal chance instead of those that get lucky with faster shipping. They can use standard shipping methods instead of having to Fedex them to get them on the shelves first. They don't do it just to mess with us.

I would prefer register locks with a specific day, particularly in previous years. Otherwise you had to practically stalk shipments to find some of them. A register locks tells you when you can show up and get it, and it prevents an employee from accidentally putting them out screwing over people that show up on the given date. Now I know I can go to the store on Friday morning and find it, and won't have to check every day until it comes in.

CCT is in Australia. I found it last Thursday. I have to admit I am pretty impressed by it.

For those of you who have cursed tiki temple, was there an additional download, or was the entire level included in the last update? (the one that added the new map section with the entrances for both new level packs)

Level was in the last update.

thanks

I got mine today from TRU by showing them that online it said it would be ready for in-store pickup within an hour. They overwrote the street date for me, and I got to check it out.

I'm in Las Vegas, Nevada, for anyone wondering.

I checked my local GameStop yesterday... They didn't have it, but their system shows the release date as March 30. So if your GameStop has it, they can sell it immediately.

There was no sign of the CTT pack at my local TRU today, however one of the Gamestops near me had exactly one and I snagged it up. Wild Storm is such a badass!

Grabbed CTT today at TRU. Had to ask someone to get them out of the back because they forgot to put them out.

I called TRU Friday and they said that it "wasn't available." I had a hunch and stopped by anyway. They had three. SCORE! Wild Storm is beast.

Even though I had my CTT pack imported, I managed to come across some at Target and GameStop last weekend. Have yet to see TRU's inventory.

Turns out my TRU DID have a few packs.
