Toys r us in Delaware says they will give tickets out when they open on the 19th. My question is. Will they give both of my sons a ticket or will it be one per family? Anyone have experience with this? Advice?

It is to be one per family most of the time. When my tru handed them out for Ninjini it was 1 per person in line with 15 tickets that were handed out. Good luck

Why wait in a line later when Best Buy already has them? I took this last night http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/507/imageowp.jpg

Based on the reports that were compiled here on these forums after the infamous Wednesday morning Toys R Us initial release of regular Ninjini, such a policy is totally dictated by the manager at each store.

My best guess is that they will issue only one ticket to each adult in line, regardless of how many children that adult brings with him/her. However, you'll want to ask the store manager at your Toys R Us directly for the best answer for your store.

I was at TRS for the "Hot Toy Alert" back in February. It depends on the quantity at hand and buyers present. It's 1 figure per family. Once you received one then you are allowed to get back in line. If they have some left and you make it up front then you are allowed another. Sounds silly but that's how they handled it when regular Ninjini was first released. For us it was limited and there were more people in line than they had Ninjinis.

It's not a consistent thing...again check your local joints. Mine are all dry at the moment.

From someone that went to the NYC ninjini release. It depends who you talk to. At first we were told everyone got one, then when we went to get them it was one per a family, which we got changed to one per an adult then one per a person as my wife refused to leave till she got one for her and her son. Some ppl may say wow its a toy to that, but honestly when you go with 4 ppl into NYC on a $12 train ride and stand in line for hrs and are told you can each get one then be told you cant, i don't blame anyone. We all play the game and collect the figures so we each wanted one.

Now, a much smaller event I say it depends on the store.

Wait, TRU is getting them on the 19th? where did this come from?

Pwillie2121:
At our toys r us--I ticket per group--you can't have parent and two kids and get 3 tickets---
I guess it varies with different stores. However I asked the manager at toys r us he said they handle each release however they are directed to--so sometimes it's tickets, sometimes they give them out one by one to people in line (again one per group) and sometimes they are put out on a table and people wait in line, doors open, and it's a free for all running towards table and you grab as many as you want. (I hate that way because I'm not pushing and shoving for toys and inevitably people get out of order and one or two jerks fill their carts without any thought of others.

I am more and more thankful I got Scarlet from amazon.de. A HTA I can ignore. Now watch them have LC Hex or Drobot or something the same day ...

The good thing is at least all the people that ordered from amazon will lighten the load on TRU (and has driven the EBay value down) making it easier for those that didn't get her yet.

That's a good point defpally!

Sorry this was in Katy, Texas

I haven't been to an American toysrus in a while, what are you talking about? You mean get a ticket, and when you're called you get a scarlet after waiting hours?

No--I mean they are numbered tickets and when the doors open you go inside with your tickets--get back in that order--and wait for them to call your number DVD hand you the Skylamder.

If they only have a small amount and they think the line will exceed their supply they sometimes do tickets, to keep people from causing issues in the line (jumping/pushing/arguments). Just a piece of paper with a number written on it handed out to people as they join the line. They have the same number of tickets as figures. When you get to the register you present your ticket and they ring you up (figures are kept behind the counter).

It also helps for people coming up to line after the supply has been exceeded because they know to not bother to wait (and are more likely to cause problems when they wait and don't get one). It also stops a "race" situation that could cause injuries as people run and grab for them.

Apparently Canadian TRUs are listing her as available as of TODAY. My brother brought the online flyer to my attention:
