Ive finally seen these in store but atm they are reduced to 24.99 for both. So for 24.99 you can get boomjet/night shift or fire krakan/grilla drilla. I haven't seen anyone mentioning finding these in target store, online has had them for awhile.

Also the nitro packs are reduced to 24.99. The above has been verified in 2 stores in my area thou your mileage may very as target sometimes have diff prices.

Cool i hadn't seen them yet, first ive seen them and a restock of the nitro packs. I did notice more of the boom jet ones but then again i always see the single of boom and nightshift over fire and grilla so that could be why.

Isn't $24.99 the regular price for those 2-packs?

I'm doing my nutty collector thing and trying to find the US double packs instead of the EU hanging style that I have. I'd like to return/sell the EU ones I have but clearly shipping to amaxon.de is not an option. Ideas? Ebay I guess.

I seen these about a week and a half ago. I thought they were neat, just kind of late since I already had those 4 swappers. There are still 2 Nitro packs but they are both the Free Ranger versions.

Regular price was $29.99, at least when Swap Force launched. (so it honestly didn't make a big difference if you bought them together or separately, unlike the 3 packs which end up being cheaper)


$24.99 isn't too bad though. Im a bit surprised, I haven't seen the 2 packs for months besides the Nitro Magna/Free Ranger or Rattle Shake ones. The other day when I checked I saw a bunch of them, plus the Kraken/Drilla and Jet/Shift.

Yep. That's totally a ways away but I'll see if I can make a trip over there.

I've seen some at my local Target. There's been Fire Kraken/Grilla Drilla certainly, and I think I've seen some Nitro Magna Charge/? 2 packs as well, though for the life of me I can't remember if the ones I saw were with Rattle Shake or Free Ranger. I usually just briefly glance at the shelves these days, then ask the Electronics guys if there's any word on shipments.

Btw, there doesn't seem to have been anything listing the 2 packs as available in the US on the Swap Force Packs page. It still says they're "exclusive" to Argos. I'm guessing that was only for a certain time, and probably only in places that had Argos.

I've seen them for a couple of weeks now. My target still has a few Nitro's too. Just saw some Wave 3 swappers for the first time at one of my Targets today too (also at best buy). No other wave 3 except at TRU though.

Is the Target store stock thing on the website accurate? If so then, clearly Skylander stock hates NY Targets. I swear, it's probably the only store with exclusives around here that barely gets any more of their exclusives after the first initial shipment.

no the online is wrong. All swappers share the same code, all core share a code, all adventure pacska code nitro 2 double shares same code as the packs on this thread.

I saw these and had no interest in them. Getting them at a discounted price (meaning cheaper than buying the two individually) may make it worth it. I'm not sure why they didn't do that in the first place. We already have Grilla Drilla and have a Legendary Night Shift, so we're not really interested in either 2-pack. The same went for the Nitro Magna Charges. I'd rather have the variant than the regular version, but this time around, we haven't exactly done that. I didn't want to spend $30 just for Nitro Magna Charge. We already have Legendary Free Ranger and Quickdraw Rattle Shake, so neither of the combos mattered to me. The Fire Kraken/Grilla Drilla combo might have been interesting if we hadn't already picked up Grilla Drilla (only because it was in stock when my son went right after Christmas and it was the only one, at the time, he needed). Although, I want to wait for Jade Fire Kraken instead of getting the regular one.

I'm guessing us crazy "gotta have it now" paid more for the singles...now they are targeting the price sensitive consumers who need a "deal" to buy them. Marketing is waking up this go around, apparently.

Ahh, ok, Thank you. So the only way to do this is to physically go to the store. Got it.

Ya the online target info sucks. They could have say 100 hootloops and it will say grilla drilla is in stock when there are none. The only ones that tend to be right are the singles of variants, however nitro magna charge double shares the same as these new wave 2 doubles.

I'd suggest calling ahead even if the numbers online tell you it's there. Have an employee eyeball the stock, and if it's not there, you've saved some gas. If it is there though, ask them to hold it for you.

It's interesting. While the website said 1/31, I've seen some LC Wham-shells at my local target. We're getting some sightings of 2 packs too. I wonder if the 2 packs are in a box to themselves, or if they're grouped with singles, or maybe 3-packs? If they're with other items, then would sightings of them mean the rest of wave 3 is coming out there?

I believe the 2 packs come in there own box.
Kinda like the Giants did.

I've only ever seen these at Sam's Club so they aren't exclusive to Target.

Yeah, the 2 packs themselves aren't, but the nitro 2 packs are. I think the OP was trying to point out the reduced prices for them at Target, and sighting them at all. It's always good to share things like this, so others can have an opportunity to save $$.

Stopped by one of my local target stores today and they had all the dbl packs and had also put out the target exclusive Giants lightcore set (Prism Break, Eruptor, and Drobot). I thought that was kind of funny, because this is the same store that hasn't received any of the new Wave 3 swappers yet, but they apparently found or received the old giants stuff, because I know it wasn't on the shelf before.

The warehouse staff might be working on getting out all the old Skylanders merch left over from last time. Occasionally, I've seen a few SSA items at my local Target, such as Dragon's Peak. I wonder how big the place must be for Skylanders that they still have leftovers?

You mean Activision is still sending them out, or that stores still have them in their warehouses? I wasn't sure I got that, sorry.

I got a zoolert about Nitro Charge + Free Ranger but when I go to the page and click "add cart" I get an error stating I can't add it to the cart because they are only sold in stores. ...right Target.
