Has anyone in the UK been seeing any of the wave 3 characters in shops yet?

I haven't and I'm wondering if they're even out here

Another poster found this so I am taking no credit for this : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Skyl...=item3370985170
It's highly possible the seller just came back from holidays from the US and brought back loads of these as there are no Wave 3 figures in the UK yet.

as for the ebay listing i agree that it is either something that has been brought back from the usa ... or they are a store employee that has "borrowed" it from stock that is waiting to be put out at a later date

No,I have not seen the nee wave, or any Skylanders, recently. Today and yesterday, I have checked different Game stores, toy stores, HMV, and other gaming stores, and none have a single Skylander in stock, apart from one Game which had some Skylanders and the portal of power out to play on; Trigger Happy, Spyro, Gill Grunt, Stealth Elf, Eruptor and Chop Chop. You could not buy these. So, no Skylanders at all... smilie

Yeah, with the Empire of Ice pre-order for a couple of weeks time, I can imagine the rest of Wave 3 will follow soon.

I'm not even trying my stores. They seem to have a bunch of Voodoods hanging around and refuse to get anything more.

Right, I asked Tesco through their twitter feed last week, took them a while to find out but...

https://twitter.com/#!/UKTesco...144294281560064

The reply I got is set for ALL Tesco stores. So if they haven't been approached by whoever the suppliers are with a date, then who knows?

We all knew he was anyways lol. So frustrating I went to my local toys r us the person at the counter told me they were getting stock in tomorrow but just singles of eruptor , dino rang, hex etc but no wave 3 although she did assure me they will be getting wave 3 "soon" although she didn't give me an exact date.

I did get a hazy confirmation today from the manager of the TRU Collier's Wood today. Copy and paste the important part for your viewing pleasure:

Ooh, that's good.

Well, we have Game going off and doing their thing, so hopefully we can get a better confirmation. I guess the most likely date is the beginning of February...

#24 Posted: 17:54:44 25/01/2012
Well going by Amazon.co.uk's release date of Feb 3rd for Empire of Ice, my guess is around then for the rest of the wave.

Yeah, sounds like they're doing a half-arsed job and only giving us half of the figures :/

Or they're gonna turn round and go "oh yeah, we've just shipped them without telling anyone lol"

Yep, I'm a her smilie

And that would be rather great.

I guess I have it good though, I don't go into the game stores just looking for figures, I'm there because it's a way to while away my 2hr lunch breaks. If I do find any tomorrow(unlikely as it seems), I'm defo getting Cynder(much to the bemusement of my bus fare. It's just whether i immediately run to the store, or get some cash out of the bank first smilie), and then letting you guys know.

#32 Posted: 20:27:24 25/01/2012
Yeah Girl Power!!

If you don't have the time to keep checking the stores, just keep an eye out here. I'll post my findings up there, please remember to puts yours there too. Us few UK people need to stick together.

Nothing against the other posters, but it does get a bit bothersome seeing threads like "OMG found X Skylander in Y State" when us in Europe and Aus barely have Wave 1 and 2 in stock.

Don't do it, I've seen both in like 7 different shops recently: 2x Argos, Currys & PC World (both sell triple packs with both+ Double Trouble for £16.99), 2x TRU, Smyths. And they've been in stock to buy from Play.com for £7.99 recently.

There must been a massive delivery of Skylanders in the UK a couple of weeks ago and I've noticed the stock stay on the shelves for at least 3 days in some shops now.

No shops around here with Skylanders figures (still!), but it's still nice to be able to order them online and have a chance at getting some figures, at least!
