Eye brawl

http://www.gamestop.com/toys/skyland...er-pack/105996

I was able to get a order in for eye brawl, every time I added thump back to my cart I was told its not available anymore. I hope the eye brawl goes through. Thanks a bunch, my son is going to be super stoked!

Thanks but wont let me add either to cart.

I was able to order both but did so in separate orders since when i first seen it only thumpback was in stock.After i checked out and everything i went back and then eye brawl showed up in stock so i placed another order for him.

No biggie its only an extra $3.49 shipping so its not worth the hassle of trying to get it combined to one shipment ext..

You know i am pretty curious about skylanders. I heard that you can beat the game with the starter figures.

I just don't get all the buzz about the figures. Are they a big deal? Are people reselling them? Will they make me the very best? You have to buy them all?

good luck reselling the starters from the skylanders ds set (besides the dark spryo ) i have 3 sets i cant even trade off for any other figures

Guess I'll have to keep looking. Hopefully like all the others they'll be easier to find at some point.

Which do you have doubles of? And how much would you want to sell them for? Trigger happy is one we're looking for.

No, you can beat it just fine with just the starter, and get most achieves. Some are better than others, but it depends on your playstyle what works best for you. If your goal is just to beat the game and move on, stick with the starters and see how that goes.

The draw is the collection aspect, think action figure collecting. There is a good amount of replay value, and they work across many games - online, console, portable and mobile. Every figure stores data, and unlocks the ability to play them in game. It's fun, particularly if you have kids.

The DS Starter for the first game has Stealth Elf, Ignitor & Dark Spyro. Trigger Happy is in the console Starter or you can get him as a figure for the second game (it works in both), or the Legendary version from ToysRUs.

Just makes it easier to finish the game and especially on nightmare. Have over 20 and my son uses the ones that does melee and I use the ones with range attacks. I would only get the ones that fit your playing style or if you can get them cheap. Still have 2 light core still in the box from the BB sale.

If you want to unlock all the areas in the game, you will need one character for each element.

Yeah I'm glad we have 32 of the little bastards. I've been running nightmare at night solo while he's sleeping, it would be a pain to do with only 3 figures.

Dangit I missed it :( My kids want these two sooooo dang bad!

Stealth Elf, Ignitor are the 2 i have (well 6 i have since i have 3 sets)

bad thing they are a major pain in the ass to ship though cause you have to put them in a freaking 2/3 day box what kills is the shipping price.

No BB's in my area have them (Northern Cali)

I picked both of these up at Target on Monday. I live in the suburbs of Atlanta. The detail on both figures is awesome, but Thumpback is particularly impressive.

A lot of kids want these and Hot Dog.

Hot Dog is currently only available in the Scorpion Striker pack, which is exclusive to GameStop in the month of January. I just picked it up and a series 2 Zook (still don't have series 1) yesterday. No luck on Eyebrawl or Thumpback for me.

Picked up the Scorpion Striker Pack, Thumpback, and Eyebrawl at Gamestop in-store the other day. Still need to find a Camo and Legendary Stealth Elf. Argh.
