The source of the much rumoured pets has finally been revealed: starting in July to get them in North America you'll be buying Frito-Lay multipacks. How you'll get them in other parts of the world is currently unknown.

These "Skylanders Sidekicks" work in-game just like the Magic Items that you get with Adventure Packs and they'll follow your Skylanders around like a pet.

Their names are "Whisper Elf", "Trigger Snappy", "Gill Runt", and "Terrabite".

I looked into this..and found out according to Lays the first phase of promotion started Apr. 2 & ends May 5.
the sad thing is that they are not in the bags...buying the family packs only gives u a code to insert online.the even sadder part is that i bought two of them & both codes given to me weren't even valid when i punched them in the website..the code although the code does unlock an exclusive mini game online


it didn't work cause u have too do it in beetween the 2 dates.



I just got off the phone with activation regarding the failure of my code they said the servers are down to try again in 24hrs. The operator even tried punching it in for me and it didn't work either so she said to call if it doesn't work by the codes EXPIRATION DATE MAY 5. Oh & chances of winning are slim NOT EVERY BAG IS A WINNER.wich sucks.

A new thing for my 4 yr old to obsess over. I'm glad we got him into collecting, my husband and I do. He's a natural when it comes to all things Skylanders.

The one now is for a flocked stump smash or random skylander depending on what color the bag label is or which number you call, the walmart one that is just an online mini game and a dollar off a skylander. The little ones will be a new promo around mid June.

They're sold in Multi-packs for a reason. They'll be in the bag the actual packets of crisps come in.

Honestly, have you never seen this kind of thing been done before? It's not a new concept to give away items with food.

No, they're physical toys that you use in game.

It will probably be a code that put in online and tey ship it to you. If it is in the bag, then it will most likely by in a small, plastic bag attached to the inside.

Well, it might not be too hard to find them if a bunch of people get extras of certain ones; you can always trade them in at Game Stop

I think it's really weird how they're putting them in frito bags, even if it's on a plastic "pocket" on the outside, what if your parents are some health experts, like dentists, or doctors? Normally, those type of parents don't let you have this type of "junk food", so you have 0% chance now of getting one.
I think they should release them like they've released all other skylanders and adventure packs, in STORES.

By the way, I think it's pretty bizarre, do these things have time limits and can't be harmed, or are they like a "pet" that is literally like a real second player, health, gold, levels, and all that stuff. Can they do heroic challenges with you(probably not, but it would be great if they could)?

SO MANY QUESTIONS, I hate waiting for answers... and for them to be released.

Except no one owns the rights to sell certain fruit - not like people who own the rights to sell certain snacks.
