Yeah, GCU works in store. I got a figure there for my nephew and also the Skylanders Tower of Time Adventure pack - both had GCU discount applied. You just need to make sure the cashier does it correctly - though really all it takes is you giving them your RZ number up front.macontosh2000 said:GCU worked for me instore
I think psunami was referring to how you had to buy Crystal Lightning again if you wanted to get Crystal Buzz, as that was the only way you could get Buzz.Its a variant and i can easily not buy it like how i did not buy any of the variants in the first skylanders. All the regular figures where available in a 3-packs.
Starter Pack is $10 off at Best Buy at $64.99, and all figures, play sets, figure 2-packs and 3-packs are Buy 2, Get 1 Free there as well.Does anyone know if there is any good deals on a starter packs. And also individual characters? For the wii U.
You won't get a great deal like the $37 Black Friday/Amazon deal again for awhile, so it'll vary what you think of as a great deal. I paid full price originally and don't regret it though. My son loves the game and that's what matters for me even though I am a cheapass (and aren't we all?)I just look at the first page. But thanks for ur help
Interesting, even when EA has nothing to do with Skylanders or Disney Infinity they still get hate. You mean Activision?Hated EA when they started rebundling figures old figures in skylander giants. Turned me off skylanders all together. Thats why i never bought the next 2 iterations of that game. Tsk!
Eh, they're both deserving of some hate.Interesting, even when EA has nothing to do with Skylanders or Disney Infinity they still get hate. You mean Activision?
My bad. Yeah its activision.Interesting, even when EA has nothing to do with Skylanders or Disney Infinity they still get hate. You mean Activision?
I had that happen on a Sunday morning order that arrived at 10 a.m. the next day. It was amazing when the delivery guy showed up.Holy crap - got 2 (Vanellope, Violet) of my 3 figures from Best Buy in the mail already. I ordered these yesterday afternoon! For whatever reason, they sent Skellington separately (scheduled for delivery tomorrow). So, yeah, 1-day shipping on 2 of them, and 2 day on the third one. Beats the hell out of a 40 mile round trip to a Best Buy store - probably wouldn't have been able to do that until Saturday anyway.
Yeah, my playsets were the same way, got 2 today already and getting the other one soon as well. Best Buy has been like this the last month with all of the orders I've placed and I've just been using free standard shipping, it's pretty awesome!Holy crap - got 2 (Vanellope, Violet) of my 3 figures from Best Buy in the mail already.

Same here, I was pleasantly surprised when I got home today. Now that I picked up Violet I have everything released not including the variants. I don't know how the stores are stocked around you but if they are anything like the ones around here, you wouldn't have found any of the older figures, other than villains.Holy crap - got 2 (Vanellope, Violet) of my 3 figures from Best Buy in the mail already.

Same here. He must be kept in a separate warehouse or something. Also got my three play sets today too.Holy crap - got 2 (Vanellope, Violet) of my 3 figures from Best Buy in the mail already.

End of the day on Saturday. It was a weekly deal.Sorry if it's been answered before, but does anyone know when the Best Buy deal ends?
The Villains pack has been MIA at most stores, not just Best Buy for some time now for some reason. Maybe it was just a limited run that they did?Damn would have been nice to be able to get the villains pack with the sidekicks pack and one more thing. Anybody have any luck finding it in-store?
Ditto. Have yet to see it on sale. But I still have tons to do in the others so I can be patient ;pStill waiting on a good deal for the Toy Story Play set. Missed out on that one day coupon deal TRU had before Christmas.
Well, you've always got the Frozen 2-pack and if you're ordering online, the Wreck-It Ralph 2-pack as well, though it won't ship for another five months.Damn would have been nice to be able to get the villains pack with the sidekicks pack and one more thing. Anybody have any luck finding it in-store?
Quite a few Wal-Marts around me still have both. If you haven't gone in and manually checked yourself then I would do that. They're online inventory tracker isn't the most accurate.Damn would have been nice to be able to get the villains pack with the sidekicks pack and one more thing.

Gamers club unlocked (GCU) at bestbuy!So does buying multiple power disc packs trigger a flag on gcu accounts? Since its not technically a video game but only an accessory to the game its not part of the 3 limit purchase thingie?
Theoretically it could but it seems that someone on the Best Buy forums said it will not be a problem (see the GCU thread for more info). However, beware: they may say that, but the people culling your purchase info may not know what it is and see the same SKU 4+ times and trigger the ban. We won't know for sure until it does or doesn't happen to someone who bought a lot of them. They also confirmed that since the figures are different SKUs you are Ok buying multiple figs (just not more than 3 of any one figure).CAGkrazy said:So does buying multiple power disc packs trigger a flag on gcu accounts?

There is going to be a lot of angry people if they ban people as all the swapforce figures share the same sku.Theoretically it could but it seems that someone on the Best Buy forums said it will not be a problem (see the GCU thread for more info).

I'm hoping this as well. I mean Toybox is fun for a while, but with no actual goal things get boring quick. I'm sure they will add more playsets or at least let the single figures do more because there is no way in hell that they are going to drop Mickey on us and not give him a bigger role. With that one would hope that the other single figs get some love too, ie. Jack....I'm kind of counting on Disney Infinity 2 to both be backwards compatible with the current figures and also to have more interesting things to do with non-playset figures (if nothing else at least a better Toy Box mode). If this was just a one-off product I probably wouldn't have bothered with any non-playset figs beyond Ralph.
Damn that sucks because there are no Walmarts near me.Quite a few Wal-Marts around me still have both. If you haven't gone in and manually checked yourself then I would do that. They're online inventory tracker isn't the most accurate.
Ok. Based on what I've found, there are only 6 that I would need for that. Hmph.Yes, each playset has a big "character vault" that only unlocks when you activate it with all characters from that playset. Typically these unlock a skydome and terrain pack for the Toy Box and a prebuilt toybox based on that playset along with other toy box items.
Could always just grab a filler figure and check back in a few days for an exchange.Whelp, ordered three of them from bestbuy.com for the B2G1 deal, but apparently the site lied and they were out of Fransesco (only really picked him to complete my Cars set.. otherwise I need two from Incredibles). Wonder if I should just have him shipped instead of store pickup... *shrug*
It's all good, man. You don't need to justify your method of playing the game. Purchase what you like and go with the flow.I just cant do the non-playset guys or crystals anymore I don't see the point. I don't see the difference in playing a toybox as Captain Jack or Jack Skellington. I know you can "toybox" worlds that look like they are made for those characters, but I would rather just play levels with objectives. I might feel different if I didn't play Skylanders first where each different character can serve a purpose in the game at some point.
THIS! In the NYC area, I heard there was poor attendance at the TRU events and almost no one came to the one event they had at GS. They have only themselves to blame for that since they barely advertised the events. I'm just amazed that the Disney Stores don't have trading events for these like they used to have for their pins and vinyls.Any news on another trade event in TRU? Wish they had a trade box in store like how disneyland and disney stores have that vinylmation thing. Tried buying my 1st 2 power discs packs at target and guess what... They were the same!! Sheesh! What luck huh!
