Every year there is that one skylander in your skylander store that nobody ever buys because there is to many. Guess which one you think yours will be here. I think the shelf warmer for my area will be Dive-Clops.

I think Dive Bomber is a definite shelfwarmer. People will want a cooler, sleeker looking dark element vehicle (Sea Shadow) over a regular old submarine.

Head Rush. Oh sorry after going to target that is all I can think of. Seriously they had 15 head rushes

Anyway I think that Smash Hit and all reposes not named roller brawl will shelfwarm

Non-Starter Packs with any Starter Pack figures
Dive-Clops
Stormblade
Crypt Crusher (Although Fiesta is popular, this is a Land vehicle and everyone will have one.)
Dive Bomber
Sea Racing Action Pack (They overstocked Mini/Buddy Packs to hell here so I expect this to be the same, then again, Nightmare Express was always semi-rare where I live)

I don't know what Wave 2 is but I think these'll stick around my area for a while. Usually, figures beyond Wave 2 don't shelfwarm here for some reason, so anyone in 3+ is probably safe (bar a few vehicles, Land ones especially).

I think it will be Stormblade and Dive Bomber.

At first I thought Smash Hit, but with his seriously insane fan following that came out of nowhere even before receiving game play on him, I know doubt he will be. Sadly I am now leaning on Stormblade or Dive Clops as shelfwarmers.

Seriously. Target today had only a whole bunch of Head Rush, Water Traps and a few Starter Packs and that's it.

Any of the first wave figures besides Fiesta and Crypt Crusher.

I expect Fiesta difficult to get.

The only ones i expect NOT to be shelfwarmers AT ALL are Smash Hit, Astroblast, Splat and Nightfall. Especially.

My TRU has 50 Head Rushes and no other trap master

gill grunt.

Dive Clops looks awesome, but he probably is going to be one.
Same as Dive Bomber.
Stormblade and Sky Slicer, for sure.

The thing with Sky Slicer is it has a niche as a Sky vehicle.

You can't get another Sky vehicle on day one unless you go to Target or you're buying a Wii/3DS starter.

I think for that reason alone it won't shelfwarm, at least not as badly as some other stuff.

I would say Dive Bomber. What were othe ones of trap team in your regions? In my case, Gusto was like everywhere.

gill grunt.

Considering he's only found in the pack that gives you all the sea race tracks, he'll be bought up for that reason alone.

On that note though, singles of Terrafin. I know he might be the single most popular character, but they put him in so many different packs it's silly.

i went to Walmart the other day and All they had was 10 Gusto's and a bunch of Starter Packs.

Dive clops

Anyone from Wave 1 basically.
And Stealth Stinger.

I would say stormblade she seems very to me

I think the sky slicer too

stormblade and dive-clops. then they both become hard to find at the end.

Super Shot Stealth Elf single pack.

Remember.sky slicer is THE ONLY SKY VEHICLE YOU WILL GET UNTIL WAVE TWO. AT WAVE ONE, IT WILL BE AS RARE AS CRAP.
IN WAVE TWO, IT WILL BE A shelfwarmer.

Not if you get the 3DS or Wii version as well PopFizzMagic. But for the non nintendo systems yeah its the only sky vehicle, aside form the jetvac combo and the nitro stealth stinger.

yeah. BUT YOU GET MY POINT.

Nothing because everyone only buys Amiibos now although the Nintendo Starter packs I think will be rare.

Shroomboom.

Wait.......having flashbacks to Giants.

The Horror........

I think that Stormblade, Shark Shooter Terrafin, Dive Bomber, and Sky Slicer will be overstocked.

Stormblade definitely will be. She doesn't seem very popular right now, and Fiesta + Dive Clops outshine her overall in popularity. I like her, though. Guess I have a tendency to choose the less popular characters, I guess.


Terrafin was always semi popular, but I dunno, since it is the 4th version of him. He could be common for some time, but then again, it's essentially a whole different character when you take attacks into consideration.

As I said earlier, they just always over package Terrafin. So his popularity is sometimes overrun by the fact that he'll be in all sorts of packages, of which 99.99% of buyers will only get one of (those who need one of each package buy one of each, but with the exodus of used figures during trap team, that investment is looking to be biting some in the butt).

WRONG!!!!!
You all forgot the Target exclusive, Nitro Stealth Stinger. Plus jet-Vac/Jet Stream combo pack is Day 1 as well.
Here's the count for Wave 1:
Sea: Reef Ripper (racing pack), Sea Shadow & Dive Bomber
Land: Shark Tank (combo pack), Crypt Crusher
Air: Sky Slicer, Jet Stream (combo pack) & Nitro Stealth Stinger (exclusive variant)
BOOM!!!

Nitro Stealth Stinger is an exclusive people might not be able to or wat to drive to buy, plus it and Jet Stream aren't confirmed for every country. Also, Sky Slicer is still cheaper than buying the double pack with Jet Stream. Even if it does shelfwarm, no way it'll the be the worst of them.

Wait... Stormblade isn't popular? Am I alone in adoring her design? I thought she looked pretty awesome. Kind of burlesque too, which doesn't hurt. Then again... I thought Head Rush looked awesome and that's the only figure at Target.
I'm going to say Shark Shooter Terrafin. Kind of an ugly character, which the only thing he has going for him, is the fanbase of his original version.

I love her design too and I liked Head Rush. I'm disappointed with her gameplay so far, though (might be the lack of much on-foot footage, but I did see a video of Chapter 29 that showed her off for a while and her gameplay seems kinda plain). Oddly enough, I felt the same way about Head Rush's gameplay, although I'm much more disappointed about Stormblade. She was my second-favourite behind Splat but I just can't get into that gameplay.

Jet-Vac, Gill Grunt, Pop Fizz, Terrafin, Stormblade, Dive-Clops, starter packs
Jet Stream, Reef Ripper, Soda Skimmer, Shark Shooter, Sky Slicer, Dive Bomber

Dive-Clops almost seems like a Giant and seems to move slow. I can guarantee he won't be a favorite.
