listen guys its just i really hate hearing people in other countries saying they got these skylanders already and that their not out in the US yet but the skylander boy and girl already have wave 3!! At least i have High Five and they don't..... But i really hope someone can just figure out this for me
1 when wave 3 will be out in the US, especially in NJ and
2 when is Bat spin coming out (everyone says she's not out yet) and finally
3 when the light and dark packs are coming out in the US
Thank you and God Bless, would really like an answer!

The light packs are already in the back of TRUs, and are street dated for the 21st. I'm also guessing that's when wave 3 is released. Also, here is a pic of a light pack that they brought out of the back to show me:

I really hate that USA get the game first and Wave 2 first and Lightcore Bumble Blast and S2 Drobot and all these Frito Lay promotions with Skylanders like QuickDraw Rattle Shake WE NEVER GOT. Be patient, us in Europe get nothing compared to you. Iit's literally the first time in forever Europe is getting something.

Well, at least your not bitter...

Let's face it...no one wants to wait while someone else enjoys the spoils...just keep in mind that the folks in here have ZERO ability to change it / affect it. I can empathize those that have to wait, but please don't discourage those who are just as excited as you to voice their desires ... we are all equal here.

Were you able to find out the price for the pack? Or is it still the outrageous 50ish dollar price estimate.

No, that's the one **** thing I forgot to ask.

Figures don't it. But not that huge a problem though.

Another topic had TRU's price for the Light & Dark packs at $31.99 each

Is wave 3 planned only for Toys R Us, on 21-Dec? Or, will other stores get it too? Like, Target, Walmart, etc.

Personally I hope it is more then just Toys R Us as pretty much any other store is cheaper.

I heard Target & TRU will on 12/21. I hope so because whatever I don't get at TRU, Target's nearby to finish. Traps...least of my worries. Figures & expansion packs are my mani priority. If they have the traps, cool. If not, fine with me.

Found all wave 3 trap masters, cobra cadabra, trail blazer, and all wave 3 traps at Target in Washington State tonight.

Anyone know if Toys R us is doing a midnight release Saturday night?

I don't know what you mean by release, but the register lock should be lifted and figures available for purchase as of midnight. You might need to ask an employee to get them from the back and fight off a few scalpers. It would be nice if they imposed a limit of one of each element to each person in the spirit of the holidays. I can imagine a scalper wiping out their entire stock in one purchase.

I don't think so, wah543.
And, mastermc54, they're too busy at night to do that. I had talk to a TRU employee and they're going to put them out when they open on 12/21.
They're trying to eliminate some of their old stock (, which they can't because they always get new shipments of old items), thus it would be too difficult for them to restock the inventory.
Don't forget, that week will be hell.

What do you mean? I've been to TRU just this week past 11 PM and it hasn't been busy at all. And I don't know about you, but I checked TRU.com and my store is open until 2 am this Saturday. I don't see any reason why they can't sell me light and dark packs at midnight. I don't expect them to be out on shelves/pegs, but they should have at least one bleary-eyed employee capable of going into the back & bringing them out for customers asking for them. My TRU is only closing for 5 hours Sat night/Sun morning.

I was just passing through a Target near me doing some Xmas shopping and lo and behold, there was some of wave 3 on the pegs! They had Trail Blazer, Cobra Cadabra and every W3 trap except for a single of the Tech Tiki that was in the 8-pack... Even had a Kaos trap on the peg. Just had to grab all of those and hopefully I can get the rest on Sunday at TRU.

Nice surprise.

I am in AZ BTW.

Thanks for the heads up about Target Stores in Washington State. Found a number of them who had them.

I got Blastermind, Tuff Luck, Kaboom, Cobra Cadabra, Kaboom, and my friend got me the 8 new traps.

And oh, Trail Blazer

wave 3 should be released everywere soon.i hope

Guess i must be going to the one target in washington that doesn't have them. Anyone know if there is a special way to get target people to check they keep telling me a special distributor stocks skylanders and not actual employees.

Target uses a DPCI code. Anyone know what they are for the W3 guys?

bat spin is out in Europe and i got her right here

this one is gonna be rare guys, better grab her if you find her...

I managed to find myself a fire mini 2-pack at toysrus but that was the only thing from wave 3 that they had on the floor early.

Are those really "early" though? I thought those were considered done and released a while ago now.

She isn't going to be rare, just non-existent in Wave 3 for the US along with High Five. People aren't finding them here because they aren't in the cases in the USA. Probably related to the Frito Lay contests. If I were to guess, she will probably be in a Wave 3.5 (or 4) assortment with High Five. High Five is exclusive until 12/31 and who knows if they have some other contest starting in January or something.

I put the case contents in this thread:
