Thanks for posting the link, I ordered mine. It was pretty furstrating that the TRU in Joplin where we were all week admitted they had them in the back - but wouldn't sell them to us. That's not a huge deal, except they told us that the manager of the TRU in Springfield, MO went ahead and let people buy them. It would be nice to see consistent policy in either direction.

As of 6:30 pm, Dragon's Peak was still available on TRU.com. I won't be standing in line tomorrow. For once, they have something new that is in demand and available. What happened to the preorder for Blue Bash? I saw it one day and within an hour it was gone! Does anyone know if they will relist it online? Thanks

In Maryland we have the same inconsistencies as other states. One TRU store manager will give allow 1 Skylander per FAMILY while another TRU manager was giving out tickets to each family member even the little ones. So if you have 5 children and you bring your spouse, you can get 7 Skylanders at one time. I understand the directions came from their corporate headquarters but nobody seems to care. Just wish it was a bit more fair.

Even though I ordered one online, went to TRU with my son sister in law this morning. She went 2 hours before they opened. I went an hour before they opened. She called me on the way there and told me one of the ladies in line got a call from her husband at targets to let her know target had whirlwind. I decided to stop in there, as I had to pass right by it on my way. They not only had whirlwind, but had fully stocked up on old characters. They had dark light crypt, EOI, and pirate seas. Plus about 15 other types. No 4th wave. First I have seen there in months.
At the TRU we had about 20 in line. The manager got in 43 dragon's peak, 50 legendary trigger happy, and about 7 other characters -about 15 each. She let everyone in line get one dragon,s peak, one legendary trigger happy (if they wanted it) and one other character. People coming in the rest of the day were still under the one per person rule, but she seemed very appreciative to the customers. It was a very nice time.
Meet a lady there with 5 kids and they were there to get one Dragons Peaks the kids had saved up for. They were just trying to get one set to share. I had some extras in my car from three packs and I gave them to kids. They were very supprised. Took her a few minutes to accept, as she thought I was trying to sell them to her, but I just told her I wanted them to get played with and they were extras we could not use. She and the kids were very happy.
By the way, do not forget if you get the Dragons Peak at TRU today, you get a $5.00 gift card wtih it.

TRU at our place was similar. We lined up in front of the door a good half hour before opening time.
Employees printed out tickets for Legendary Trigger Happy, but it wasn't in too much demand. I pointed out that wasn't the thing most people were here for and asked how many people were here for Dragon's Peak Adventure Pack. The entire line raised their hands. So the salesgirl got this funny look on her face, said "Be right back!", and went out and printed new tickets for that.
Then they led us inside to Electronics and we had to turn in the tickets to get the stuff that was behind the counter. Several latecomers who thought they would just walk in and grab the things were directed to get in line, but the Dragon's Peaks ran out before they had the chance.
I got mine and my GF grabbed a ticket to get one for our friend who lives a half hour away (and who's son loves the game). They only got in 12 packs, though they did restock a bunch of the older ones (Cynder was in high demand too, apparently).
I've done half of Sunburn's Heroics and have levelled him to 7 while getting all the basic skills and the Soul Gem. I'll write about his details and what I think of him in the appropriate forum.

My Dragon's Peak arrived today from TRU.com. I don't have time to open it and play at the moment, but it makes for a good afternoon nonetheless!
