Not all figures are created equal. Even within the amiibo community you know that. The figure I was referencing is on the low-mid side of the rarity spectrum so $11.99 is a bit more than market price at the moment. In Skylanders (outside of rare chase variants) it's actually the newer figures that can command higher prices. The entire Imaginators line is more on par with what you're dealing with in amiibo-land. Nothing under $10. Majority in the $15-40 range. Some as high as $400 just for standard (non-variant) figures.
On vinted, a trading app we use here in belgium,france and the netherlands, i be paying €15 for some. I bought punk shock with her card for €40 and scratch with her card for €55 last week... *cries in broke* So when I saw them prices i litterly jumped in the air, SUCH a difference
My favorite part of this video is that you had to go INTO room to set up your camera, press record, then you exited your room, shut the door all the way, and entered carrying all of your stuff.
Dude that's insane! I live in Nashville and go to the North Nashville Mckay's you mentioned all the time to hunt for skylanders. Some of my best finds are flip wreck, fling kong, lightcore bumble blast, and lightcore pop fizz.
I'm glad you enjoyed going to mckay's, the store was always a gamble of which skylanders figures they have and in most cases recently for me if there were going to be any skylanders at all, since they've been selling almostout alot which lend to the recent price increase from $2-ish to $3-ish.
@@sclmatt Nothing stood out to me that'd be worth disliking. But I can tell you that the 'Matt's starter kit' was hilarious and such a creative idea, and teasing the mystery box is an excellent way to end it off. The little pixel car was a wonderful touch as well.
Absolutely LOVED this style of content, but OH MAN I don't even wanna think how much all that cost....... But you are one LUCKY man getting that Power Blue Gold Rusher...
This is cool, I lost about 80% of my old collection which was unfortunately thrown out, I have about 22 left. But this videos information should be useful for when I have the availability to rebuild my collection, to be fair it was my childhood so it’s worth it to me!
for a sec, i thought you stopped by gamers inc in orlando, because i went there a couple days ago and they said that someone asked to buy the whole lot they had at the time (its one basket-full, so not all that much, plus the figures range from like $3.99 to $9.99 depending on what it is) 😅😅😅 though they did just receive a spotlight and an echo for $70 each
A store near me called Game Grid has a lot of Skylanders. Next time I go get a picture of what they have and then see if you want any. If that's okay with you.
So while I am trying to complete my own collection of Skylanders, I also love helping other folks complete their collections as well. 99% of the stuff you see me pick up in these videos will go into my online shop to resell and help other complete their collections. sclcollectibles.com So that's where the games go. I have all the games I need personally.
I was literally at the Frisco location today looking for Xbox one editions of Skylanders and there were none. Seeing that clip with trap team and swap force for the Xbox one feels like I’m being taunted.
I'm a little biased, but you could simply use the prices in my shop. sclcollectibles.com - Just don't use Price Charting. Their Skylanders prices are awful.
I haven't done any hunting in that area (yet) so I don't have any solid leads, but you can keep an eye on this list: skylanderscharacterlist.com/shopping-directory/ - If I find any stores they will show up here.
Also, may be kinda local to you, but I find some great collectibles (including skylanders!!) at Happy 8 collectibles in Gurnee Mills. Since it seems like you're in wisconsin, may not be a far drive!
Hey I'm getting back into skylanders and this video ended up in my recommended! I wanted to know some good places people hit up for skylanders in Georgia? I've been to a couple places with not too much luck.
Welcome back to the Skylands! Unfortunately, I haven't done any hunting in Georgia (yet), so I don't really have any recommendations. In the meantime you can check out sclcollectibles.com
Hi I’m new to the channel and love the content, although I have a question? Why do you get so many duplicates is it just a joy feeling to get them I was just curious
99% of the items you see me buy in these videos are not for my collection. Most items go to the SCL Shop: sclcollectibles.com - Many folks don't have stores selling Skylanders near them so I'm trying to spread the wealth and help as many people as possible complete their collections.
Keep your eyes open, you never know where they might show up. Garage sales, flea markets, small town shops...Skylanders were very popular back in the day and spread all over the place.
Not a live stream, but I did recently open it for a pre-recorded video. We're putting the finishing touches on it this week and it should release next week Sunday. Don't worry, you haven't missed it. I've just been slow to release content.
“Before I made it out of the state! The snow found me 😔” lol “JACKPOT!!!” Lol “I can fit a few more skylanders in here right? LETS GO HUNTING” lol Edit how ON EARTH DID NO ONE BREAK INTO YOUR CAR THAT WAS FULL IF BAGS AND BOXES ?!!!! If I was a robber I would’ve broken in and stolen those but you got lucky 🍀I guess
@@sclmatttrue. But I would just assume people would break in if they just saw a bunch of boxes and bags they wouldn’t even know what’s in it and still steal them imo but than again you never really are in towns/city’s that have that kinda stuff happen around there.
We sell all things Skylanders including the games. However, the PS4 games are in very high demand. We don't get them often, but when we do they are expensive and they sell very quickly.
It's a smaller market than the figures for sure, but there is a market. The biggest problem is that I don't have them listed on the site at the moment.
The only places I know of I guarantee that sell Skylanders is the McKay's stores, since there are two locations in NC Greensboro and Winston-Salem though however the Greensboro location is rumored to move to a new Mebane location sometime in November or December of this year.
Yeah. I've sold a lot of things that I need for my collection over the years. Sometimes I get more joy from helping someone else complete their collection than completing my own.
I should clarify: $3 is more than I usually pay for items that I plan to resell in the shop. $3 is a terrific price for anyone looking to buy for their collection.
Why are all female Skylander figures when I see them always broken like whenever I see a stealth elf or hex hat, even the ninja genie they’re always broken
The female characters tend to have significantly thinner appendages. So yes, their hands, arms, or even necks commonly break. It's just the way they're designed. I have dozens and dozens of damaged Chill, Stealth Elf, and Hex figures.
If you're looking to sell, send me pictures of whatever you have for sale (a few good group shots will do) along with your asking price. Email or Twitter DM works for me.

We don't talk about these things and how awkward it was when there were other hotels guests in the vicinity while I was trying to set this up.
happy to see more high quality editing in skylanders videos :)
Me too. I decided to invest a bit more in the channel going forward.
I still want to know the name of that machine
You were absolutely right. You’re buddy Brent did enjoy it.
Glad to hear it buddy!
This is awesome! An enjoyable watch all around, and such a cool journey! Can't wait to find out what's in that mystery box!
Same. I haven't opened the box yet...glad you enjoyed the video.
I love the little graphics! I appreciate the numbers as well 😎
You would enjoy the numbers. We definitely got to play around a bit with this video.
Dude that's insane! I live in Nashville and go to the North Nashville Mckay's you mentioned all the time to hunt for skylanders. Some of my best finds are flip wreck, fling kong, lightcore bumble blast, and lightcore pop fizz.
No wonder I didn't find much. You got all the goods!
The one in Chattanooga I have saw a blaster torn there
This man took the saying, "Another man's trash is another man's treasure" to another level
Bro imagine the value of skylanders in 69 years
I'm glad you enjoyed going to mckay's, the store was always a gamble of which skylanders figures they have and in most cases recently for me if there were going to be any skylanders at all, since they've been selling almostout alot which lend to the recent price increase from $2-ish to $3-ish.
That's interesting. Good to know that they rotate through them though. I'll definitely be back whenever I pass through.
Oh hey, he added "The wandering Collector" to his name
This was so well done! Im excited to see more videos like this!
Perfect. That's the feedback I need. Anything you didn't care for in the video?

This is such a cool concept. It sounds so cool to search the world for Skylanders. Hope you found some treasures in that mystery box!
We'll find out soon. I haven't recorded that video yet. The box is still sealed.
@@sclmatt very exciting though! (Watch it be lots of S1 Spyros)
Absolutely LOVED this style of content, but OH MAN I don't even wanna think how much all that cost.......

Sweet I'm glad this style is resonating with the viewers. And yes, it wasn't cheap. Gotta keep your eyes open. The more you look, the more you find.

Beautiful. Happy to help in whatever way I can.
I was just at mckays last week! my best find from there was a perfect condition legendary free ranger
Fantastic!
Great production, really interesting video
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Gotta love a Wisconsinite TH-camr... especially one who likes Skylanders, too!
Great Video Matt! Sorry about the flea market being closed when you tried to go in Oldsmar, hopefully you get another chance to check it out soon!
No worries. You had no way to know my exact schedule. Thanks for the tip. I will definitely be back.
Great video hope it gets popular
You and me both!
Very fun to see that you visited the Addison MTC! But also damn you since I could've gotten that Chill! Ah well, better luck next time...
Hunting is all about persistence.
Glad to see you enjoyed TN! Sorry McKay's doesn't have much. I never been, I saw they have so many games lol. I probably should go soon.
Badass video man!
Thanks!
15: 24 OMG I am from there! I do into that v stock all the time!
Awesome video matt
Thank you.
I love this video trying to find places around Maine but have not found a single one
Keep looking. They have to be there somewhere. Some day I might make a video where I try to buy Skylanders in every state.
I actually live in Tennessee, and Weigel’s and McKays as far as I know are actually exclusive to the state.
Hey I just found you’re channel and it’s awesome!!!
Glad to hear it. Welcome to the community!
I had no idea Movie Trading Company sold Skylanders!!! Im in the Dallas area and have seen the stores so many times
I've just been using your website, which I didn't know was yours, to look them up and then I realized that it was ACTUALLY YOUR website
Dang,,, Wish I knew you were coming through DFW... Have several NIB Store Variants and others... All the Hollywood stores are within 15 minutes!
11:18 best spot
Dang! So close! If only you had just got 81 more things, it would've been *OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAND!!!!*
That’s awesome I live in tn and go to the Chattanooga mckays all the time really cool that u went theere
Fantastic store. Thanks for watching!
Two retail stores appeared at my mall and when I saw skylanders by it I was thrilled
Always a wonderful sight to see.
if you ever come to the uk i would stop at cex, they got some decent skylanders
I've gotten that recommendation from a few folks, but I can't justify the cost of that trip just yet.
omg i would of bought all the trap masters i could find but we dont have those type of stores in my country
yoo that thumbnail is amazing
Thanks! We're experimenting with some new styles. Hopefully it performs well.
Cant wait to see what u got!
Stay tuned...
im probably going back to collecting them but I'm mostly going to rely on trap team and its traps and some dark skylanders
I discover your channel and this video is really good. I'm like a kid in front of it. Thank for this quality video.
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
for a sec, i thought you stopped by gamers inc in orlando, because i went there a couple days ago and they said that someone asked to buy the whole lot they had at the time (its one basket-full, so not all that much, plus the figures range from like $3.99 to $9.99 depending on what it is) 😅😅😅 though they did just receive a spotlight and an echo for $70 each
Haha. I have not done any hunting in Orlando yet, but I probably should because I got there quite often. Thanks for the tip.
@@sclmatt well then i guess we’ll be competing 😂😂
This was sooo fun to watch
So glad you liked it. There will be more of that coming in the future.
When I’m skylander hunting I’ll follow your path
A store near me called Game Grid has a lot of Skylanders. Next time I go get a picture of what they have and then see if you want any. If that's okay with you.
What state is this store in? I'm always looking for new places to visit.
@@sclmatt it's in Utah north Ogden. There are other stores in other locations they might have some there as well.

Do you know of any good places to find Skylanders in AZ?
Unfortunately, no. I haven't had the pleasure of exploring Arizona's video game scene.
i have a question, why did you take multiple copies of like spyro's adventure on 360 and stuff ? (no hate just curious)
They're for my shop: sclcollectibles.com
I was literally at the Frisco location today looking for Xbox one editions of Skylanders and there were none. Seeing that clip with trap team and swap force for the Xbox one feels like I’m being taunted.

I'm a little biased, but you could simply use the prices in my shop. sclcollectibles.com - Just don't use Price Charting. Their Skylanders prices are awful.
0:14 what video did you go to Tennessee in ?
Just a quick question if u don't mind, are there any good locations for skylanders near Sioux City?
I haven't done any hunting in that area (yet) so I don't have any solid leads, but you can keep an eye on this list: skylanderscharacterlist.com/shopping-directory/ - If I find any stores they will show up here.
I’m from Wisconsin too, I wish I had your collection lol
Good place to go located in Texas is called game x change the one I go to has HUGE big boxes and skylanders and games and the shelves
I've heard of that chain. I've never been to a store myself though. I will definitely try to make it to some. Thanks for the tip.
Quite the OP Starter Pack

Also, may be kinda local to you, but I find some great collectibles (including skylanders!!) at Happy 8 collectibles in Gurnee Mills. Since it seems like you're in wisconsin, may not be a far drive!
Thanks for the info. I'll have to check them out sometime.
McKays in Chattanooga is one of the best stores in the city
I've always been impressed. Glad to know I'm not alone.
I’m in Milwaukee do you know any places to go to besides half price bookes
I don't offhand. I'll be working on a more comprehensive Wisconsin hunting video soon though.

Then I'll have to get to trap hunting

Never hurts to keep looking.
Sky landers are at every goodwill in Texas in bags of 20 for like 10 bucks.

thanks I'll take notes and keep looking around wile keeping my wallet open hehe
you need a van my friend that tiny toyota holds you back from all that collection goodness lol
I've done alright so far. Not only does a van cost significantly more upfront, but the amount of gas I would need to buy is ridiculous.
