Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
I can't believe how fast happy meal promos end these days. I figured it was going to be rough for everyone who was collecting these but I thought it would run a bit longer. My Dad came to visit last week and brought a bag with 2 of each figure for my son. We opened one set and set the other back. I was pretty impressed with the scale of Tree Rex and as shocked it lit up.

Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
My daughter has Chop Chop, Crusher, Ignitor and Kaos. She doesn't play with her happy meal toys once we get out of the car so I didn't bother trying to collect all of them.

Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
Supposedly, Target will have Scarlet Ninjini on May 19th. I am not sure if all the other retailers are releasing her on the 19th.
For those interested in Disney Infinity, Best Buy has a 3 pack up for preorder for $12.99. It's supposed to be $29.99 so I am sure they will fix this soon.

Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
Oh man, I looked all over the place for any Skylander toys after your last post and didn't find a single one. Nothing but a Crood toy to trade with you, but if you do have an extra Gill Grunt to part with, I'd be happy to pay for the postage + Happy Meal for your trouble.

My Scarlet Ninjini from Amazon.uk arrived today. She's pretty cool looking. Well worth the extra ~$6.50 to not have to drive all over town looking for one later this month.

Skylanders will be b2g1 at Target from may 19th to may 25th. Hopefully there won't be too many people there for Scarlet Nijini... No one was there for Jade Flashwing but that was also accidentally sold early.

Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
I can verify Scarlet Ninjini will be at Target starting Sunday, at least at the store here. I talked to a person in Electronics yesterday and asked if they had or would be getting any. He told me they had *one* but he couldn't sell it until 8am on the 19th. He did not know if they would be getting any more prior to the official sale date. Based on that I'd make sure to be at your local Target at store opening just in case.
For those looking for Gnarly Tree Rex there's a vendor on Amazon selling a "Gnarly Tree Rex Starter Pack for Wii". This looks to be the insert for the game that came with the "limited edition" Skylanders Giants Blue Wii. It has all three figures, the portal, and the game for $$41.95 (current price) and is *fulfilled by Amazon*. That makes it a no-brainer for me as we have a couple of Wii systems.

Looks like the 19th for Scarlet Ninjini at TRU as well. TRU will be doing b1g1 60% off.
Gamestop and Best Buy apparently already have Scarlet Ninjini for sale.

Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
My local Walmart clearanced out all their skylander storage cases for $3. This is probably a huge YMMV. They still had a ton of these for $3. http://www.amazon.com/Skylanders-Car...anders+storage
I was hoping for one of the bigger cases.

Here are the starting stats for Scarlet Ninjini (don't yet know the "max" for these):

Speed: 60 (max. 108)
Armor: 48 (max. 78)
Critical Hit: 80 (max. 130)
Elemental Power: 25 (max. 100)

Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
I just saw Scarlet Ninjini in Sam's Club. I like regular Ninjini a lot more, but that's just personal taste. I'm wondering which figure is rarer because it seems like everyone is getting Scarlet N in the next few days, but I've still never seen regular Ninjini in a store.

Scarlet Ninjini is available for pickup at BB for $12.99. People are saying you have to wait till the 19th though.

Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
Went to Target at 8am and I was the only one there. They had them all in the back and they would only let me buy one (I wanted two). Apparently they had 6 total.

Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
I'm surprised you opted to go to Target instead of ordering from Best Buy as you had posted. I managed to get an order in for the one store by me that had it available. Need to go pick it up today.

Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
Target was b2g1 so it was $3 cheaper. I also like to go look for clearance items.

Re: Skylanders, Anyone?
Haven't been keeping up with these lately but ran across this guy this morning at Target. Only one on the shelf. He's fuzzy like that Sump Smash from the first game. Worth anything?

Also grabbed regular Ninjini. She's just cool looking. They had the Scarlett variation but I like the color scheme of the original better. Plus I have two girls. The purple will go over better.
