I am going to say that the east coats will start seeing them by wednesday and friday latest at this rate. I might only go after scratch once I see her out of those being released because of waiting for the easter holiday ones and nitro freeze blade.


LoL, you haven't been to my Walmart. They *may* have them in the back this week sometime, but it will take them another two weeks minimum for them to hit shelves. It took them a month to get Enchanted Hoot Loop out and it's the same with ANYTHING they get in new. I hate it when Walmart gets stuff first.

Nothing in TN today. We will prob see them wednesday. Usually when they are released like this we get them 2 days after Middle america. Bc in the past I've always thought it would be the next day but it ends up being a couple.

Has anyone in the Indianapolis area had any luck finding these? Tried the Walmart on West 86th as well as the one on North Keystone, but neither had any.

Scratch has reached Texas according to this ebay listing - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Skylan...=item20e14598d2

But saw no sign of her in my surrounding Walmarts.

Yeah, and it isn't because the employees are mean or anything. Most of them are actually pretty nice and helpful. When Molten Hot Dog came out a guy in that department went and looked in the back for me and found it - and brought out just that one for me. Swap Force release they had a couple employees look for Enchanted Hoot Loop for like 15 minutes. I think it has more to do with the store manager and their stocking than anything. One employee told me one time that stuff gets put up in "overstock" which is stacked way up high and no one is allowed to access it without approval since it is a hazard to climb up and check it. The thing is it is then forgotten ...

Picked up all four at a different store in Southeastern Michigan. I asked the worker in the electronics department and he checked in the back. Brought out one box of the four non-Swappers of wave 4. Picked out the best paint jobs. My son will be so excited tomorrow. Very surprised at how cool Turbo Jet Vac looks. I never paid much attention to what his Swap Force version would look like. He has a way better color scheme than the Giants version.

Checked 2 Wal-Mart's in Houston and saw nothing. I didn't ask to look in the back. I almost would rather wait till they show up in another store regardless. I am not a Wal-Mart fan.

I found two sets Dayton, OH at Walmart. They only had a few and it looks like Jet Vac is the hard one to get. I left 2 Scratches, 2 Fryno's and 2 Fire Bone Hot dogs.

I have found them Midland, Texas. They didn't have any out but they did have them. I was able to get all 4 yesterday. Make sure to ask for them to check. There pegs where all full so don't think they are putting them out.

That sucks. I know the Rankin Hwy walmart had one box but not sure about the walmart off the loop. they had none on the pegs so I went to ask the clerk and noticed the box on the counter and asked him if I could look inside. The box was opened previously but nothing was missing from it so I think the clerk went to place them out but didn't have any space.

I just finished checking three different Walmarts in the South Florida area (Boynton/Delray Beach)
Nothing. I guess it will still be another day or two before they make it this far south.
But I agree with what a few other people on here have said, I'm tempted to just wait until they appear at another store. Each Walmart I went in today has been very rude and very unhelpful.

Hey Everyone! Cincinnati Evendale Walmart has them on the shelf. I called at 12:30p.m. and the employee said they had opened a box that morning and put stock on the shelf. When I got there at 3p.m. (not expecting to get anything!) they had them all. In fact, based on the box contents no one had bought any of them, weird! Happy Hunting!

So now I'm compelled to check again after checking yesterday. Don't know whether to thank you for the info or wish you had remained silent. :-) Katy is a long way from your location IIRC, but I must check anyway. Knowing me, i'll probably end up getting Titanfall too.

Speaking of Titanfall, I just downloaded it this morning; that'll probably keep me busy for a while. And in 2 weeks, Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls comes out. So I probably won't be running out to get any new figures for the next month or two. I'll just get them when they're readily available, and on sale.

Bought Scratch at the Elgin IL Walmart today.
I didn't check yesterday so I don't know exactly what day they were put out, but they had around 3 of each character today.
Overall the QC looks better than the previous core wave, none of the figures I saw had any major issues.

Just a heads up: My Walmart put some Skylanders in the toy department in the main action figure isle. The new toys were only in electronics, but it's worth checking out both places to be safe.

I absolutely hounded the three Lansing, MI Walmarts via the telephone, and it finally paid off this afternoon/early evening when the guy at one of them found a single case behind the electronics counter. I purchased two Scratches, one Fryno, one Turbo Jet Vac, and one Firebone Hot Dog at the Eastwood Towne Center location. There was another fellow collector who happened to be there when I was getting mine, though, and I'm not sure what he got (so I can't say what might have been left after that). Either way, like much of mid-Michigan, they seem to have arrived.

So after what became a long and pointless search today, I was only able to find 2 Fryno at the Harrisburg Wal Mart (one for me, one for my brother in law). I searched the Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg and Palymra stores. Harrisburg had about three or four of Fryno and nothing else new. The other two didn't have a single new character out at all. Feeling a little annoyed after the long and pointless search. If this were twitter, I'd be #annoyed. Oh well, I guess I found one anyway.

Found all 4 at the Walmart in Dawsonville, GA. The Skylanders section as a whole looks like it was hit by a tornado, but surprisingly enough the new figs were on pegs. They only had 1 of each when I left at 7pm EST.
