this will probably be very successful. although I forsee skylander passes in the future.

So now we can get ripped off for our Skylanders figures as well? Thanks Gamestop!

Wha?

Does this work? I thought the toys retained their in game data.....

These are some very interesting pieces, unfortunately I don't know much about them. I'll have to call in a friend of mine who's an expert in Skylanders and have them looked over.

The only problem with this is if you buy them used you can't get the collectible cards or the online code that comes with them if you buy them new.

To my younger bro skylander figures is like crack-cocaine he cannot stop collecting them..... Geez Activision nice job, kudos

wow. that more than most ps3/xbox 360 games.

Another way for Gamestop to rip you off.

This is great news if it sticks. I'm gonna check my GameStop for used figures tomorrow when I pick up Xenoblade.

I really. Why do I bother going to trading in my games at GameStop, when I know I'm gonna get ripped off? Last weekend I traded in ps2 game. I made 7 focking cents. $0.07. XD

Everyone who is buying these things you do know if you aren't interested in the card, you can put them still in the package right on the portal and use them? Then return them for full money back!

Why do I find this funny?

This is probably going to be successful. Think about it. Kids have been going nuts for these toys and they're selling like mad, so, after they are finished with them (or if they don't want them anymore), they will just sell it back to GameStop. They will get what they need for only a few bucks as compared to full price, but, if I had Skylanders and these toys, I really wouldn't sell them.

This sounds like a great idea and could be very successful.

Definitely going to be a profit maker for GameStop. I recently quit GameStop but while I was there people were constantly asking questions. An employee even used to buy as many figures as he could afford and sold them for a ten buck premium to a friend. I was happy we weren't apart of the test market though. Trade-ins are an aggravating part of a busy day, and having tons of kids coming in trading in their used figures could only add to the frustration.

Oh my goodness... There is no end to Gamestop's madness! Just another way to lose tons of money to a practically monopolized market

Used toys killing the toys market? More at 5. Only joking, there is going to be nothing at 5. *evil laugh*

This is an awesome idea for both parties.

I thought people collect these, like pokemon cards? Who would want to trade them in?
