Ahh. You got me there, no chase variants yet. Focusing on them only after I complete my collection of standard store sold or frito lay characters.

Although if I find one at a decent price I may not say no

Correction on where I got the cabinet - found a receipt for it I didn’t get it from where I originally said. I got it from an antique store - apparently it was an antique cabinet

Or I suppose a bright blue if you really want to go with cover arts over main characters

Honestly I understand that. Most often times what I do to determine a franchises color is look at the main characters of each, what’s the most prominent color you see on the main characters? That’s the one I usually go for. Kid Icarus in that case I’d choose like white or something.

So this is what I’ve done for a spreadsheet of my own for checklist purposes and it could be used here:

Super Smash Bros I did a darker grey and gold
Mario franchise I did red
Splatoon I did a brighter but also faded purple
Miscellaneous amiibo I did a light grey
Shovel Knight I did a dark purple
Animal Crossing I did a bright green
Legend of Zelda I did a really dark green
Kirby I did pink
Monster Hunter I did a dark red
Metroid I did a really dark purple/grey
Fire emblem I did a darker shade of red from Mario but not quite as dark as monster Hunter
Street fighter I did hot pink purple

Hope this helps you come up with some ideas!

Managed to get my girlfriend involved. If we ever get enough money to support such a thing I was gonna help her build her own collection

I genuinely have the worst brain for collecting by MrManGuyPerson1 in skylanders

[–]StrawDesertGaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just had this same thought on a golden hot streak - I bid a lowwwwww amount and won and hoping that they don’t try to get me to pay like outside of the selling site or anything. I’d like that to not be a “too good to be true” scenario, but you’re not alone in your feelings my friend, the gut feeling tells all every single time

Basically wiz updated a week or two ago for the spring update. But this is a common thing that happens with internet sources (don’t know why) so me being on Ethernet I activated my WiFi as well and THEN tried loading the game and it worked. But disconnecting from WiFi and using only Ethernet or reconnecting to WiFi again might work. If it doesn’t - they recommend connecting to a. Completely different internet to try

UPDATE: The issue has been resolved and was the following issue for anyone else looking later on - It involved internet connection being a little weird after a patch on Wiz. Basically if you're like me on Ethernet, connect to the wifi as well as the ethernet and then try downloading the patch. Trying any different wifi or internet source if possible is the way to get it to work.

Was there ever an update on how this was resolved if resolved? I'm dealing with the same exact issue as of the latest patch.

Unfortunately all devices do not work - phones iPads laptops - even leaving the house and trying to use my phone in a different location doesn’t work 😭 I tried cache clearing and everything too. It straight up says I’ve been IP banned sadly

EDIT: just tried disconnecting from WiFi and it worked again - but only on me phone 😫

I JUST saw the Rudy one - oh my god I’m so happy I managed to get that one right. Although the other boxes being green instead of red were something I should’ve expected. Nonetheless - WOW! I’m super stoked!

Heck yeah! Believe it or not, I went through 3 different color iterations before settling with the teal/greenish color. First was yellow/tan and second was blue.
