I have a pre order game from EB Games and I'm going to pre order toys from TRU online or over the phone. Does TRU do the Emerald Flashwing and White Whirlwind?
EDIT: I don't see Skylanders figures posted on the Canadian TRU site at all... Are they not doing preorders in my country then?

Target because it is the best store around me to get shipping's. I got about 80% of my S:SA characters from there.

I have a Toys R Us and an EB Games in the same mall, so I'm going to send my mother to EB Games to pick up my preorders, while me sisters and I wait outside Toys R Us. Our plan s to take one of every character, and when my mom comes and finds us, we take whatever she didn't get at EB Games. (The figures I ordered are random)

I am taking the day off.

TRU first to pick up my Leg Bouncer pre-order and see what else they have.

Then Targets, Big Ws, JB Hifis and KMarts on the way back to my local EB Games to get my pre-ordered games and figs from there. I also also scope out a Harvey Norman or two but not that concerned about them as they are not cheap like the others or possibly going to have anything exclusive like TRU or Target.

The store I'd most likely would go to is Target in the mall near my house and then hit the Gamestop which is like the store right next to it.
(After the Hershey's Ice Cream though..)


And did you post the same comment in 2 different posts chaos?

Well, since I have a 3-day weekend and don't work Monday, I'm planning on going first to Walmart at midnight for the GITD portal pack if I can't pre-order it at Sam's Club... Target when they open for Granite Crusher and any Giants figures or 3-packs... after that, TRU for the Legendaries and any Giants/3-packs I didn't get at Target... then to GameStop for my Golden Dragonfire Cannon!! Maybe I'll pop into Best Buy to take a peek too since it's on my way back home...!! smilie Then I will have the rest of the day and all of Monday to play awaaaaaay!!! smilie hehehe

Area One K-Mart: They open first, so I may as well go there first.
Area Two Big W: They open second, plus they'll likely get an exclusive. Also, the PS3 bundle(even though it says it'll be out on the eighteenth it doesn't hurt to check).
Area Two Target: Doesn't hurt to check two of this store.
Area Three EB Games: I have everything preordered there. Plus, GDC.
Area Three Target: Yeah, doesn't hurt to check two Target stores.
My mum will go to TRU herself and pick up anything else.

KMart opens at 8:00am
Big W at 8:30
and TRU at 9

I can go somewhere where they are all in a line in the correct order.

Launch day is a standard work day here in Oz.

I know I'm gonna get pretty much everything, the only things I need to worry about hunting are the PS3 Bundle, the Dragonfire Cannon and exclusives, I have everything else on preorder.

The day it comes out? I can't afford it.

I'm getting it at around Christmas.
Nibelilt Ripto Gems: 401
#38 Posted: 13:09:31 11/10/2012
New plan:
K-Mart then straight to TRU. Since the Legendary Triple has been spotted in Australian TRUs, it's probably a launch thing. Besides, there is still one each a Big W and Target next to TRU, so I can still check for exclusives. In fact I'll likely just go to K-Mart, the TRU area, and my area with EB and Target(since I have everything preordered there).
Area 1 K-Mart -> Area 2 TRU -> Area 2 Big W -> Area 2 Target -> Area 3 Target -> Area 3 EB Games

In my area I'm hoping not everyone will be as excited as me to get out on day 1.. so im getting there early and i'll probably buy everything in one place that i really want. aside from the legendaries. since im going to walmart first

Toys-R-us, because they usually have the best sales when poular games like this. last year,for SSA, they had buy one get one free all video games, which included figures!! How could anyone pass that up?????

Area 1 K-Mart -> Area 2 TRU -> Area 2 Big W -> Area 2 Target -> Area 3 JB Hi-Fi -> Area 4 Target -> Area 4 Target
Eecy peassy. Just check anything that's not JB or EB for exclusives because I have ALL my stuff on preorder there, pick up preorders from them and head home. Might go to Area 2 Big W before TRU though if I get there really early. Reason I'm going to JB Hi-Fi is also because I'm getting Glow Fright Rider and the standard Dragonfire Cannon from them.

Toysrus


That's it. Everything will be bought at TRU. If there's something they don't have I want then the next stop is target.
