Do they plan on releasing more of these and making millions of dollars or was the plan to sell about 100 and it just disappear? Anyone know when and if it will be released again?

LOL funny, I emailed them today asking this same question and they said they had no idea what I was talking about:

Hello,

I understand that you would like to know about the availability of "Skylanders Giants: Gold Flameslinger figure".

I'd love to help, but I couldn't find the item you asked about.


Received this same response from four different CS reps and I only sent one inquiry, LOL.

Only members of the Illuminati will gain access to this fig. Oops, did I say that out aloud? There is nothing to read here and I wrote nothing of consequence - fnord, fnord fnord...

This was the reply I got from Amazon when I emailed them last Friday (2 November):-

Quote:
Hello,

Unfortunately, we don't have the stock of Skylanders Giants Gold Flamelinger Amazon Exlusive right now, and we're not sure when we'll be able to get more.

I'd suggest checking our website from time to time to see if this item is available. If anyone is selling it, you'll see a "More Buying Choices" box on the product detail page. If it's not available from any sellers, you might see an "Alert me" link; "Alert me" allows you to sign up to be e-mailed when Amazon has stock available for purchase.

I'm sorry I don't have better news. We hope to see you again soon.

There does appear to be a conspiracy behind golden S2 Flamey.

From multiple conversations with amazon here is what I have been told:

-The figure was never meant to be up for mass order.
-The link I (and other users here) used was designed to be a one time use link for a specific amazon customer.
-He comes in cases of 12 Amazon has received one shipment of 50 cases and expects to recieve two more before Christmas.
-An unknown quantity of the original shipment was misplaced causing some of the orders to be misidentified as being sent.
-All still pending orders will be filled before the item is offered again.

I don't now how much of this is true but there seems to be some planning issues on Amazon's part with how they distributed their exclusive.

The Illuminati don't exist.

It is merely a conspiracy theory but one conveniently used in comedy, including the Simpsons and several board/card games so relatively kid friendly.

That's right we, err..., they do not exist - fnord, fnord, fnord!

The way things are going I doubt illuminati clearance is enough to unlock the secrets of S2 golden Flamey.

It is funny how Amazon is treating this though. Amazon only seems willing to acknowledge the toy to those that were fortunate enough to get him in their cart. There is no record of him on the site and Amazon does not recognize his existence to those outside the intial buying circle.
