Trio Of New Skylanders Hit Retail Shelves

If you've caught the Skylanders bug like I have, you're probably well aware that these little guys are absolutely impossible to find right now. Bad news, kids. Here's three more characters you'll be hunting for weeks.

If you’ve caught the Skylanders bug like I have, you’re probably well aware that these little guys are absolutely impossible to find right now. Bad news, kids. Here’s three more characters you’ll be hunting for weeks.

Meet Cynder the dragon, Double Trouble the shaman, and Slam Bam the…er….four-armed abominable snowman in the gallery below. These critters are supposed to be hitting store shelves soon, however I think the news might be coming a bit late, as I picked up a Double Trouble and Slam Bam weeks ago. Still trying to find Cynder though.

Spyro fans might recognize Cynder, as she was a major character in the Legend of Spyro games. Which is probably one of the reasons she’s so damn hard to find right now.

Cynder and Double Trouble are both available in single packs right now, and Slam Bam comes exclusively with the Empire of Ice Adventure Pack. That is, if you can manage to get lucky and be in the right place at the right time.

And for those keeping score, the ones that have yet to be released are Camo, Zook, Warnado, Lightning Rod, Ignitor, Sunburn and Wham Shell. Those are supposed to be hitting store shelves in the coming months.

What say you, gamers? Gotta catch ’em all?
