I live in Hull and we are suppose to have one of the biggest Tesco's in Europe, a massive 75,000sqf superstore (google the biggest tesco)
yet honestly the Skylanders Giants display was tiny stuck down an isle in the middle of the dvd section upstairs opposite the clothes dept
And not a single Granite Crusher to be seen.
Last year it had pride of place downstairs near the main entrance with a massive center piece display with exclusive Whirlwind posters plastered all over it. This year i found it hard to find any skylanders and even had to ask where they were!
Why cant i order these online? smilie


it really is too funny and takes the p*ss when a scalper comes on this forum to complain about not being able to find stock

both from Hull. same username on ebay and in here ... but hey maybe it is just a coincidence?

No matter how hard it is to find, whenever I go to a Skylanders stocked shop, I'll always just casually look to see if there are any variants

I think a scalper has moved into a spot near my TRU area... I hope they don't check my main stores...

I have a scalper in my TRU and Gamestop areas. I EVEN SAW THEM RUN IN AND GRAB A 6 YEAR OLDS WHAMMY.
THEY TURNED IT INTO A STUPID VARIANT!

Well, I am not ashamed to say that when a wave comes out I sometimes go on a little "galivant"/quest to stores in the greater vicinity to look for variants. This time I to no avail - well for this wave, I did find a Crystal Cynder!

Don't judge me - it is my time and petrol and I have gotten some decent results for my collection. All up, I have found:

1 silver
2 golds
3 GITD (not including GITD Fright Rider as that is not a chase but an exclusive)
1 crystal

In Ireland you won't find them. Staff keep them for people and themselves. Been looking for my son since he got into Skylanders. We got the GITD Cynder and Fright Rider, so he's happy with that.
