Skylanders is this generations version of pokémon cards, they are in demand by kids everywhere are constantly sold out. An ebay auction just sold 6 figurines for £797 or $1261. The pack consists of gold versions of Chop Chop, Flameslinger and Drill Sergeant, as well as silver versions of Eruptor, Boomer and Dino-Rang.

Wow how do you get a gold version? Is it just pure luck in a regular package?

Crazy people be crazy just ask Jeff =D

You know, I wouldn't actually be surprised to see this.

@Grissefar: Yeah, apparently there are randomly inserted gold/silver variants.
