I sent an email to amazon asking why they are taking so long to ship the pre-orders and this is what they said:
"Hello,
I've checked your order and can confirm item is now back-ordered. I'm sorry about this delay--we certainly didn't expect this would happen.
I want to make sure your order gets to you faster once we have stock. To help make up for the delay, I've upgraded the shipping method to One-Day Shipping shipping at no extra charge. The new estimate for delivery is January 24, 2012 - January 31, 2012 .
Although the shipping method is faster, it'll still take some time to get the "Activision Skylanders Spyro's Adventure Triple Character Pack 6 ". As soon as we receive more stock, we'll ship your order and send you an e-mail to let you know."

Well that was really nice of them.
Yeah, I'd say that was expected; they're backordered. I've bought things online that are backordered sometimes till the end of the year. (Even though I buy them in June) so....

Same thing happened to me. I contacted them about why they were taking so long and they gave me a 5 dollar off coupon.

I don't buy my Skylanders from amazon. I buy them from another website that is super cheap and free delivery on everything!

Oh but I am! They gave me 10 off since I already had 1 day shipping, and it was 2 items! Gold chop chop was 100 after discount. |

My orders at Amazon (4 Cynders 3 Double Troubles) changed from not yet shipped to shipping soon. They even put a shipping date of tomorrow on there.
Check your orders peeps.

Ditto on Cynder changing to shipping soon... Now it looks like I don't have any more Skylanders to search for until the next wave is released.

Yeah I just contacted about mine to see if mine will change. Not liking to pre order and then wait three weeks after most people have it.

Mine changed to shipping soon as well. I can't wait to see the look on my Niece & Nephew's face when I bring them Cynder. Now I just wish I would have ordered the single pack's of Drill Sergeant, Whirlwind, & Double Trouble instead of the 3 pack. I have a feeling the 3 pack's will take longer than the singles.
