Does anyone know what Exclusives/Variants are available in the UK right from day 1 of Swap Force?

I know of;

GAME's starter pack with the 5 Dark Skylanders
Asda's Enchanted Hoot Loop
Toys R Us 2 Legendaries

Are there any others? I'm fully expecting Tesco to have one, as for Giants they had two.

Many thanks.

Phill

Argos have listed an "Argos Exclusive Double Pack" but with no image/information yet. I'm gonna guess this is the Nitro Magna Charge Double Pack - they also appear to have the Night Shift/Boom Jet and Fire Kraken/Grilla Drilla Double Pack's early. You can't reserve them online though, so I'll go and check if it is actually available yet when I go to get my other figures.

I searched the figures page for Tesco, but found nothing. I didn't think of searching for Target. If they're Target figures, then we'll get them at Tesco too.

Thanks.

if it is a Game exclusive, anyone know how much the Nitro Magna Charge pack is? Deciding whether to order from Amazon Germany as its pretty cheap on there (25 euros + 4 euro postage), I'm guessing its probably more like £30 here

well I have just gone in to my local asda and they dont even have any of the swap force characters out on the shop floor and they have tried looking for Enchanted Hoot Loop in their warehouse and they cant find him/her at all its a shame they only do it in store otherwise i would have tried online.So i have to try tomorrow the problem is i am working from 9am-5pm and i have to somehow phone them up to see if they have got him/her ian and ask to put me one by.Tesco only had 1 and that was Granite Crusher

You can order Enchanted Hoot Loop from ASDA direct and get free store delivery, I have just done that as my asda did not have any figures out either

Managed to get my Enchanted Hoot Loop at ASDA easily; they also seem to offer the best prices for figures.

Has anyone bought Nitro Magna Charge yet?

Nitro is not available yet. Been to two Tesco today and they are not available yet. Went to order from Tesco Direct, and they are showing not yet available too.

I had nothing but trouble from ASDA today. Complete shambles. Manager managed to save some face however.

@jaxk but there is a problem with that I have no money in the bank to pay for it as i was expecting to get in store.So it looks like i will not be able to get it because of their cock up.

So I went on a mass hunt today. Hit Asda, two Tesco, Toys R Us, Game, Smyths and two Argos. All in the Edinburgh area.

The Asda and Tesco prices are almost identical. Asda seems to have a better selection however. Tesco only seemed to have packs, core Skylanders and Lightcores. I'm back on Sunday at Tesco for my normal monthly shop, and they said that their full delivery of figures was delayed until tomorrow, so hopefully I'll see the Swap-Cores.

I started off with my pre-ordered Dark Edition of the game.

The first Argos I went to only had the Fire Kracken / Grilla Drilla set. The second had both sets, but I only got the one from the first one.

TRU had their Legendary figures, which I got both of.

Smyths really REALLY let me down, as I was getting the hard sell off someone who was a a bit of a jobs-worth. He was trying to tell me that the figures they had were exclusive to them, despite them being wave 1 stuff. They also said that they had them cheaper than anyone else in the UK, and all the figures had stickers on advertising £19.99 reduced to £14.99, £14.99 reduced to £11.99 and £11.99 reduced to £8.99. When I corrected the guy about the prices and "exclusivity" he went and chatted to the security guard who then followed me round the store.

Next stop was Asda to get Enchanted Hoot Loop.

Home was a late arrival, so I played the game after Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was finished. The game looks amazing and I'm hooked already, but it feels a little "slower" than Giants.

The names are no different in the German version - UK, France, Spain, Germany, Italy etc all get the same European version so it won't be any different.

Sweet might get them from amazon.de, then save the hassle of waiting for tesco to pull their thumb out.
