Toys R Us have emailed out a Hot Toy Alert for the new Wave 4 Swappers. That means you should be able to find Freeze Blade and Trap Shadow at a Toys R Us near you (provided you live in the US)!


And Enchanted Star Strike is also now beginning to turn up exclusively at US Walmarts.

The beginnings of Wave 4 are trickling in with findings of newcomers Fryno and Scratch as well as the last two of the older reposed characters Fire Bone Hot Dog and Turbo Jet-Vac. So far these have only been found in Walmarts but they're not going to be exclusive in the long run.


In Canada there have been sightings of Freeze Blade and Trap Shadow at EBGames. Again this won't be an exclusive.


And, provided the date holds this time, the UK will see release of the special Spring Edition packaged Springtime Trigger Happy, Punk Shock and Fryno this Friday as well as Enchanted Star Strike, who will be exclusive to GAME.


In their first content update of the year Skylanders: Lost Islands adds a new companion and a couple of new Skylanders.

• The Chieftess is a brand new (or, rather, old) companion, just like Hyde and Maboo you need to find her wandering around your kingdom each day in order to tap on her, she'll give you a load of coins for doing so. You'll need to spend 200 Wishstones to get her.
  
• Two new swappable Skylanders, Freeze Blade and Trap Shadow, have been added. You can buy them for 300 Gems each or take a spin (remember that you get Gem refunds if you use the toy later but not coin refunds from spins).
