GameStops are about to be overrun with toys in an epidemic the likes of which we haven't seen since the late-90s Pokémon figure
thing. Pixelitis published what appears to be an internal GameStop document detailing a nascent
Skylanders figurine trade-in program being tested at some stores.
Surprisingly, they seem priced by rarity, with harder-to-find figurines reselling for up to $20. Trade-in values range from around $2 to $8. There's currently no information on which stores are participating in the offer, but given the popularity of the game it'll be everywhere soon enough.
