Have You Caught the Skylanders Bug?
« on: January 17, 2012, 06:52:14 AM »
I sure have! I really want to get some new figures, but EVERYWHERE is sold out! If you look on eBay, they're going for insane prices. I wanted Dark Spyro, so I bought the 3DS pack and I'm selling the other two figures. In the end I'm only paying like £15 for the game and Dark Spyro!

:good:

I was told by a good pal of mine last night that this game is awesome, and the night prior I was eyeballing the PS3 version @ Toys R Us for a good 10 minutes. So it's not sold out here, thankfully. Supplies are really good, it's just a matter of affording it, for me :P It does look fun. Maybe I should invest in some copies next paycheque to sell on eBay, and pay for my own copy that way xD which platform version is selling the best?

We have managed to resist the actual game here (we have plans to get it as our anniversary gift this year) but we each have a figure (mine will spit rainbows!) and are looking for others. We will be all set when we get the game in March! Unfortunately everything is sold out here too right now.

My nephew got the game for Christmas. It didn't look too exciting to me, but my sister played it for a while and she was really getting into it!
Two more little devils jumped over the wall.
Saying turn her out father, she'll murder us all.

We have two of the figures and I'm still watching out for Cynder, but a $60 game is a bit out of my price range right now.  Still looks awesome though.

Oh god no lol - I refuse to play anything that is too addictive, my whole family have addictive personalities so I try not to tempt myself. As we speak, my mother is deep in the zone of some online multi player game, I am sure if she had a colostomy bag hooked up she wouldn't move for the next day or so until she was in serious need of some sleep :P

Love it! Wish I had waited to get it, though, I paid the $70 for it.

Chop Chop is my favourite to play as! ^_^

ME!  I got the 3DS version for Christmas and I got the PS3 version for my husband for his birthday...we have MOST of the figures that are out at this time, plus 3 of the Adventure Packs.  We were SO excited to come across the Empire of Ice the last time we were at Target. 

VERY addicted, lol!

I got into it a couple of months ago - had a great time hitting all the black friday and pre-christmas sales.  I've got a price target of $5 per figure, and I've been surprised how many I've been able to find at that price..... :biggrin:


I even got 1 free, when ToysRus.com was having a BOGO, and then the more expensive item ended up cancelled.....they still sent me the cheaper one, totally for free!  No shipping or anything!!   :thumb:

I've heard it is very addictive.

 But then again, so are ponies!

I work in Gamestation and we get a few figures in every few days and then we are literally mobbed with people trying to get hold of them. Yet we had shelves and shelves of the things before Christmas. I won a figure from a competition on a packet of Sugar Puffs though so there you go... in a few months when they hype has died down and people are getting rid of it I will probably play it for the trophies as (from what I played at work and from what little kids have told me) it seems insanely easy.

We just picked up a copy, but we're sort of saving it for a special occasion.  Still having trouble finding the figures, though - Cynder especially.
