Dunno, I did a search & the only "Official Skylanders" thread that came up hasn't been updated since 2012.Use the search and you will find not only an official skylanders thread, but also a thread about this deal.
I saw several of the light and dark packs when I was at Target a couple weeks ago. I was holding out to get them at Best Buy with GCU, but maybe I should have bought them.The only current Skylanders deal I am interested in is for the Skylanders Trap Team: Sunscraper Spire Light Element Expansion Pack. But it seems to be much rarer/impossible to get at MSRP now since its sold out, and there are no news on if it will ever be restocked. Not gonna pay more than what I paid for the game itself, but I need a light Skylander.
Last week Best Buy had a glitch for buy one skylander, get 50% off the second skylander, but the most expensive skylander came up as the 50% off one, so I got a Trapmaster and a preorder for Blackout for $17.49. This B2G1 doesn't seems as good as that one from BB last week. Just FYI.
I would drive over an hour for one at MSRP. I haven't checked local stores much, but I cannot find it anywhere. Don't know how rare it is, but I think it's actually quite hard to come by. Get one if you are interested in it I'd say.I saw several of the light and dark packs when I was at Target a couple weeks ago.

I have a "adult used" Light and a Dark set sitting idle here that I was going to toss onto Craigslist for $20. I had no idea they were rare. I guess I won't have a hard time selling the sets for $20 each?The only current Skylanders deal I am interested in is for the Skylanders Trap Team: Sunscraper Spire Light Element Expansion Pack.

Too bad Headrush is kind of crappy, and the horns on the figure snap off easily.Target exclusive Nitro Headrush comes out tomorrow...
I wasn't aware if this. Mine has been fine. I'll leave Nitro in the package for collector's purposes but I think the color scheme looks better.Too bad Headrush is kind of crappy, and the horns on the figure snap off easily.
This is what I'm hoping for. The Ninjini Giant was so hard find at first and now there are tons. I'm being patient and waiting to buy the light and dark sets at the right price.Won't the light and dark sets see a wider release at places like Best Buy eventually? That seems to be the way all the past expansion packs have worked.
The Best Buy deal is still going on. It's not a glitch, since it says right on the deal page that the discount applies to the higher-priced item. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like you can checkout with more than two at a time, as I tried adding four and the discount didn't work. I just added some preorders to two separate orders in order to get the free shipping for $35+ (you can mix shipped/in-store pickup items). I picked up Hijinx/Eye Small, Head Rush, Tread Head, and Hog Wild Fryno for about $25 plus tax (after GCU).The only current Skylanders deal I am interested in is for the Skylanders Trap Team: Sunscraper Spire Light Element Expansion Pack.

Which city did you find them in? I didn't know Walgreens sold them. I don't need a Kaos trap I'm just curious.Was able to find 2 Kaos Trap at Walgreens yesterday so check there also.
This is Da Official Unofficial Skylanders thread!Use the search and you will find not only an official skylanders thread, but also a thread about this deal.
They also made a Nitro Krypt King on release day of the game. Gear shift was also available everywhere on release day. Not easy to find now though.Which city did you find them in? I didn't know Walgreens sold them. I don't need a Kaos trap I'm just curious.
I also find it dumb that they picked Headrush out of all the characters to make a Nitro version.
Also anyone else NEVER see Gearshift in store? ( yes I know it's on amazon)
My SoCal Target (as of yesterday) had about two dozen Gearshifts on clearance for 30% off.Also anyone else NEVER see Gearshift in store? ( yes I know it's on amazon)
Stores have limited space, so they only stock the absolute top sellers. Online does not have that issue, so they can afford to stock less popular stuff.They also made a Nitro Krypt King on release day of the game. Gear shift was also available everywhere on release day. Not easy to find now though.
I bought a dark set at a BB a few weeks ago, but it's rare that I ever see the expansion packs there, even though my local BB has a placard advertising it.Won't the light and dark sets see a wider release at places like Best Buy eventually? That seems to be the way all the past expansion packs have worked.

It says it's for single character packs. Generally, that means expansions don't apply. They didn't at TRU, but if that's not the case here, let us know.In regards to the Light and Dark expansions. Target has the same DCPI (207-00-3011) listed for both expansions. Brickseek is showing them in stock in 13% of stores.
Closest store to me is 35 minutes away, so I'll pass on driving that far on the chance that they are both light. With the B2G1 that they are running this week, I wouldn't mind picking up both along with another expansion. Hopefully they'll both be at a store closer to me this week.
The deal is still advertised, but doesn't work anymore, it seems.The Best Buy deal is still going on.

Hadn't seen that it was for single figures. That's a bummer.It says it's for single character packs. Generally, that means expansions don't apply. They didn't at TRU, but if that's not the case here, let us know.
dang thats cheap.too bad they do not have any in stock around here,all i want is the posterIt sold out online, but I was able to pick up those Skylanders: Giant Owner Packs for $0.79 at a bestbuy store yesterday.
I saw one in store at a Target last weekend. Maybe they accidentally broke the street date early?Target exclusive Nitro Headrush comes out tomorrow...
There's a placard in my local BB advertising this deal, so I'd be surprise if they couldn't find some way to make it work out for you in store.The deal is still advertised, but doesn't work anymore, it seems.
Worth a shot, I guess.There's a placard in my local BB advertising this deal, so I'd be surprise if they couldn't find some way to make it work out for you in store.
Is there a place to put the traps in the Swap Force portal?I hope the light/dark expansions become easier to find. I want them, but I'm not willing to track them down or pay MSRP. Only deals I'm looking for now are Trap Team 3DS deals and a few more trap master elements.
Was really lucky, found a bunch of trap 3 packs mis labeled at MS Store during the trade in deal. They had 3 packs for $5.99, so I bought 6 packs for 3 copies of old sports titles that cost $1 each. I have every trap element and doubles, which I will likely trade off doubles.
I bought Gusto before realizing he came with the 3ds version. I'll be looking for a Trap Team game cart and Barkley. I have a portal from Swap Force/Spyro's Adventure so I don't need another one for 3DS
Nope. http://kotaku.com/whats-different-about-skylanders-trap-team-on-3ds-1641191381Is there a place to put the traps in the Swap Force portal?
That doesn't sound as good as being able to use the traps, where there are supposedly over 40 villains you can play as.Nope. http://kotaku.com/whats-different-about-skylanders-trap-team-on-3ds-1641191381
No Traps
How odd, considering the console game's strong focus. Do not worry about those little trap crystals for the 3DS version of Trap Team — they are useless here. When one of the game's 14 unique villains is captured, it appears on the 3DS' lower screen. Players can poke it, pet it, blow on it, or summon it to appearing alongside your chosen Skylander, performing a screen-wide attack before waiting out a timer for another go.
Well that's not on tree dee ess brahThat doesn't sound as good as being able to use the traps, where there are supposedly over 40 villains you can play as.
The game is actually really fun; it's more of a platformer than the console game is. That's a steal at $20.GS has the Swap Force stsrter pack for 19.99 NEW. It comes with Swappables Free Ranger and Rattle Shake, and Lavs Barf Eruptor. Even if you don't own a 3DS, the characters alone are worth it, and if you do have one, its not a console port, but an entirely new game.
yep i just picked one up yesterday,i only need erupter and the portal but for 20 i could not pass it upGS has the Swap Force stsrter pack for 19.99 NEW.
