CAGiversary!
Normally this wouldn't be much of a deal because its just an MSRP release, but prior to today the figure only had a limited release at the NY Toy Fair and is still currently selling for $250-450 on ebay.

That isn't going to work until 3/17. Target retroactively street dated Jade Flashwing to ensure they have them when the Sales Circular goes out highlighting it. As of this morning their register will not let you buy one.

They will be out on 3/17, in all stores and in good numbers so don't get jumpy and go to eBay. It's a week away, but at least the guessing game has ended. And as I understand they will have a discount deal on the figures that week in the ad too.
 
[quote name='obidawsn']I had no idea there was a Legendary Chill. My son needs Chill, so that would be a good one to get. He's been wanting some Legendary figures. He really wants Legendary Bouncer, but I never see them in the store. They have them on the website, but I hate to pay the shipping. I stopped by yesterday and they had the 3-pack (Jet-Vac, Slam Bam, & Ignitor), but I hated to spend $26 when he already has 2 of those in regular form. Maybe I'll keep an eye out for the Legendary Chill. It would be nice if they would get them in and a Ninjini while they're having the B1G1 40% off deal.[/QUOTE]
I guess I should also mention Legendary Chill is a Lightcore Character.

Man that sucks - thanks for the info! It was working yesterday and that's how I grabbed one

While you're at it, mention that NY ToysRus are charging $15.00 for this figure. It's insane how bad ToysRus has gotten with this stuff.

Yeah, but let's be clear, TRU is getting all these exclusives and legendary's because they are making a killing selling them. As in, people are actually buying them at that price.

I've held back buying Skylanders at TRU unless there is a deal. I think right now they have the B1G1 40% off - that brings the price down to normal / slightly less than anywhere else.
 
I stopped by toys r us and picked up the legendary light core chill. I had the cashier scan the 20% off coupon on the website and got it for $10.39...not a horrible price
 
I got a bouncer 40% off with my ninjini. I'd be happy to let it go for 17.50 shipped(pretty sure that's breakeven for me) if anyone wanted it(cheaper than TRU on ebay or website) w/ ship and don't have tax.

Interesting...It clearly states on that coupon that it should not work for this type of item, but I guess it's YMMV.

Only problem with that is that Bouncers are everywhere, I think your better off just giving it away or exchanging it for one you don't have down the road.

EDIT: I have an extra Jade Flashwing, anybody local to Riverside want it?

He's probably talking about Legendary Bouncer, which isn't so easy to find, at least for now. As for the regular Bouncer, he's starting to become harder to find. Now that the new Giants (Eye Brawl, Thumpback, etc.) are filling the shelves (and probably the cases), it seems Bouncer has become harder to find. However, it's still available on Amazon for $10. Even though my son wants the Legendary Bouncer, I'm thinking about going ahead and ordering the regular version and putting it back for his birthday, and if I get a Legendary version before then, I'm sure I can just take it to Walmart or somewhere and exchange it.

I was wondering if the coupon might work. For one, the coupon states that it excludes video game hardware (which usually means systems) and video games. Nothing about accessories. Plus, according to the TRU website, the figures are listed under "Action Figures", so they may be considered "toys" in the system and not "video games". The really interesting thing would be if the coupon stacks with the B1G1 40% off. I know is says regular priced items, so it would exclude sale items. But since you are buying the first figure at regular price with the 2nd figure at 40% off, the 20% might still apply to the 1st figure. Might make for a really decent deal.

Also, I saw someone post in the regular Skylanders thread that next week they will be B1G1 50% off? Any word on that? I haven't seen anything else about it, so I'm not sure where they are getting that information.
