Hey I came across this last week and ordered it thought I would share what I found for those like me that missed out on her and can't find her in store you get her and shroomboom for 22 or eye brawl gnarly tree Rex or pumpkin eye brawl for 26 also have triple packs with it for 35 I site to store for mine but it can be shipped to your house. I didn't know if anyone else had seen this.

Interesting how the picture shows Scarlett with the European style hook. I wonder if that's the style that actually ships out.

EDIT:
Just tried a serch on Walmart.com myself for Scarlet Ninjini. Not only did the deal that the O.P. post about pop up, but so did a single pack.

If you scroll down a bit it lists the deal I have shown in the people also viewed section but I will find out in a couple days I used site to store because I live 2 minutes from a walmart and It saved me a couple buck not to mention lessen the chance of them getting damaged in the mail

I ordered a skylander from Walmart once and had it shipped site to store and it arrived in bubble mailer. The skylander box plastic was all crushed and had a huge slit in it like someone had cut it. I took it immediately to customer service and got my money back. A similar situation happened with Toys R Us when I had a figure shipped to me in the mail. Never again will I order any skylander online.
I get better service from people when I buy skylanders on Ebay, as I haven't had any arrive in bad condition.

They've had these for a while. People have found Scarlet Ninjinis at Sams Club, too, so they must somehow have a huge shipment somewhere or somehow are able to keep getting her. As for ship-to-store, they still get shipped through regular sources (USPS. UPS, etc. not sure which) to the store. Not sure how that makes it cheaper, unless they get a discount for shipping so much to the store or they take the loss hoping to get you in the store to buy more.

I detest the Walmart pick up. A few times last year I had to wait there like a moron until someone finally decides to help me. No one pays attention to the alert system that a customer needs assistance. Then when someone does decide to help me, they rummage around forever trying to find it until the person who is supposed to work there shows up to get it for them. The last time it took me 30 minutes to get a mere DS game which was under the cash register. That made me decide to have any future items sent directly to me as it's just not worth it for a mere few dollars savings.

Anyway, all the packages I've ever picked up from Walmart has UPS stickers on them. It is cheaper to send it directly to a business because they can deliver several hundred packages within an hour within a small business area. There is an additional fee to send it to a residence, often because someone will live some 30 miles out in the country away from any other package delivery. The time and fuel costs to deliver that one package is insanely high, which is why they prefer to deliver everything to stores. I wish businesses would use USPS to ship because of the lower cost, but they absolutely suck at business mail in general, which is why so many use Fedex or UPS.

About the crushing of packages, I recently bought two blister pack figures (not Skylanders) off of Amazon last week from two different sellers and they both arrived in bubble wrap mailers. I couldn't believe it. I sell on ebay and I have to use strong boxes and wrap the stuff up to survive a battle zone. Luckily they didn't get too damaged and it wasn't important that they arrived in perfect shape, but I wasn't entirely happy by the cheap packing either. Although I want a Scarlet Ninjini, I'd be afraid to bite on this deal because I know it'll be sent in a bubble mailer and crushed. I keep my Skylanders MIP whenever possible.

I've found with my Amazon seller experiences is that you have to treat them like eBay...assume they know nothing...and confirm condition of said item and shipping practices. Not doing so is inviting disaster.

Sorry I was just trying to help people like me who missed it. I just started with swap force and I missed out on so many like polar whirl wind and jade flashwing I'm glad for disc replay and ebay or I would have missed out on them.

There's 5 full cases (6 to a case) of Scarlet Ninjini at my local SAMs Club on a pallet on the floor underneath the Skylanders area. They have been there about 2-3 months and not stocked on shelves.

Are there any on the shelves? Did they forget about them or something?

Saw the same thing at my Sam's.

No need to apologize, you were doing a good thing. I'm sure there are several others on here like yourself who came into the series with swap force. I only wanted to help with pointing out Scarlett is available for a single purchase as well for those who might be budget conscious and only need her alone.

Hopefully you did indeed help someone with your original post. I know if I hadn't already found her I'd been thrilled to have read this.

Thank you this was my intention I have noticed a lot of people say they are missing some figures was hoping to help as I have been helped many times on the forums

So if Walmart happen to deliver overseas, then the chances of my Skylander arriving in the UK reasonably unscathed are what, nigh zero?

That's how I got my regular Ninjini when she first came out and was impossible to find. They had 2 or 3 cases sitting underneath the shelves that they never put out. I just opened it up and got what I needed.

Since I started playing and collecting I have never seen one and trust me I have scoured almost all of Indiana looking for skylanders and some just aren't readily available to me like that granted my walmart has series 2 dropouts for days they haunt our shelves and others say that's a rare. a lot of people said winning the fright riders was hard but I won every time I tried and got a lot of them. I got 4 and my mom and nephew got 4 but I couldn't win a rattleshake to save my life
