Conclusion

Legendary Stealth Elf is yet another SSA repose that is very deserving of a "Legendary" status.  She is insanely quick and when upgraded down Pook Blade Saint an absolute terror in both story mode AND battle mode.

As with all Legendary Skylanders, L-Stealth Elf will be exclusive to Toys'R'Us (here in the US).

I honestly feel like L-Stealth Elf will fall along the lines of what we saw with L-Trigger Happy.  If she is ever "sold out" I would expect a big shipment to restock within a week or two.  I would not purchase her with the hopes of scalping her later on down the road...you are just throwing money away!  Granted, I could be wrong, but it seems Activision and select retailers (notably Walmart and Toys'R'Us) like to get exclusive Skylanders and keep them stocked.

As far as the look goes we have a nice "motion" pose with this iteration of Stealth Elf and while many times the "Legendary" color scheme fails in comparison to the character's stock look, I must say that it seems right at home on L-Stealth Elf.

If you want her and do not currently have her I would advise picking her up before Christmas as that is really the only span I can envision stock possibly being overtaken by demand.  If you do run into that situation just be patient.  DO NOT shell out $45 for her and call it good...just wait a few more weeks and pay retail.  That said, at this point in time you should have no trouble finding her in stores or online.

It is nice to see Toys for Bob and Activision bring her back not just in S2 form, but as a Legendary.
