eBay to the Rescue!

I finally broke down and bought one Series 2 figure (Sol) off ebay so the kids could play on the new Funkiki Island stuff. I'll post about what they think of the additions soon. I also grabbed the last figure I still needed from the original wave, the Very Rare Twinx. Woohoo!

I knew you were going to break down soon. It is something about having all the funkeys. BUt for those people that can't afford to have a desk full of funkey. You can't go wrong with the VERY VERY Rare. you not only get bonus points when you play the games but you will have access to all the stuff for your crib that the other two (normal and Rare) have. I find them extremely artistic and very collectible. I had friends over and they saw them and were like wow where did you get these I want them for my desk or ETC ETC. So they are just something nice to look at.

i just picked up four of the new ones (the last four they had) at one of the local targets here in atlanta as well. as well as my first stitch, who i've been struggling to find anywhere. the prices at the stores i have visited have all jumped up to 5.99, including the first series.

I just got mine in the mail from ebay. SO i have all 12 of the new ones. I could not wait to open them and start Funkiki island.
I already got the Trohpie for the Nibble that one is a pretty easy one as well as the one for Webly that one takes some stradegy. I am working on FLurry and SOl. SOl makes me miss my days of playing miniture golf in the summer growing up.

I still can't figure out what the coconuts are for. Make sure you give the coconut tree a shake down for a few coconuts. make sure that you stop by the fishing poles to catch a trophy fish for your crib. I have explored 3/4 of the island but I can't for the life of me figure out how you get the Glowing Pearls and how you get in the Cave. This is the time where everyone can start providing tips for exploration. FUnkiki island is very very interesting. Those darn Natives are worst then Hoodwinks

THe post cards are pretty nice and colorful. I manage to figure out that the cave leads you to the other 1/4 of the island cause i saw it while venturing in Flurry's area. BUt i can not figure out how you go into the cave.. Every time i try to get near it it says TO DARK YOU WILL GET LOST. SO i am wondering if the stands around the island give you the materials that you need to be able to explore some things

mkj: I agree with you, they have a great artistic flare and I love them on my shelf at work. You mention having all 12 Series 2 already from eBay, that must have cost you a small fortune!

sevenphive: I noticed the dollar increase as well. Don't feel bad about not being able to locate a Stitch yet. I have yet to see ANY of those Series 1 Wave 2 figures here in Michigan. No Wasabi... No Fallout... No Glub... No Tiki... NONE!

rox: Thanks for the heads-up and the link. When I checked it out, it was not available to purchase. I'll keep watching it though!

well I work hard and if I want it get it. I am a middle child of 3 and I always got education Toys and Clothes as gifts while my sibblings got the cool things. So Now I am to the point where If I want it I get it. I have two Passions BIONICLE which is a LEGO series I been collecting since 2001 and now UBFUNKEYS. When I heard that they released wave 3 I immediately went to Ebay. Usually if you order them all from the same seller they offer you a shipping and item discount. So I normally get them 3 to 5 dollars cheaper then the buy now price cause I email the seller. I got all 12 from the same person so she gave me 5 off the each funkey and also gave me a discount on shipping.

It was only available for a few hours. I got the email notifying me

"Greetings from Target.com.

We're happy to inform you that the item you requested, Radica FunKeys FunKiKi Island - Series 2, is now available! Here's a shortcut to that item:"

They must not have had many.

alot of people are wondering why i just go to ebay. With the cost of Gas it kinda breaks even. Instead of Driving from store to store over a longer period of time. as the Cost of filling up the tank increase i would rather sit at my computer and shop and let the item come to me.

***SUPER SUPER TIP*** you know there are 3 ords that are on the island that you can't get to cause of gaps in the road. The way to get the one that is over the canyon you have to have WEBLEY. YOu have to play webley's game till you can't play it anymore. As a reward they will give you a WEBSHOOTING GUN. THat is how you get across the canyon to get one of the first 3 orbs. You will shot the gun and it will creat a bridge made of WEB.. how exciting. Once you get across you will be able to explore the other 1/4 of the island GOODLUCK

actually there are four ords. 1. over the canyon, 2. on the other side of the Cave 3. on the other side of the Lava and 4 on the other side of the piranna invested stream.

go to the **super super TIP** to see how to get to the one on the other side of the canyon

We just learned how to get the orbs and what to do with them....After you get the trophie from each character you keep playing the game. the more you play you will then recieve a special reward piece ( like webleys web blaster) this special tool creates a way for you to get across the volcano. Sol will get you through the tunnel. Webley will get you across the cliff, and well we are still working on the other two. As you cross over you get the orb and at the top of the volcano there is a large door. Place your orbs into the holes in the door - collect all four and see what happens. Good luck!! The only down side we discovered is that once you recieve the special "tool" you will no longer be able to win coins.
We cam across a problem where we recieved Webleys web gun before we were able to get the trophie or get the game sent to our game room, if any one can help with this one I would really appreciate it!!

I found that same thing out this morning about the orbs and the special rewards. I only have done webley. What do you get from SOL to allow for him to get you thru the cave. I love the suppense. If you are having a problem getting the thropy I will call the or contact the distributor and they will let you know that. That was the first thing was get all of the thropies. I literlly been playing this game for like 24 hours straight. I love this it is so addictive. And from the number of spaces on the throphie room I am thinking that they are going to be releaseing a few dozen more FUNKEYS.

if anyone finds out what the other special items are and what is behind the door let everyone know. I am still trying to figure out what happens after you get all 4 gems cause i have 3.5 of the gems now.

Once you get a full gem that locks out the Henchmen from that portal. When all the gems are complete, that, I believe, destroys Master Lox and all is happy.

Sol's reward is a mask which lights your way through the tunnel. All the dead ends lead you to the same place - the big door. The top and left side of the map is still a mystery. I am guessing that once all the orbs are in the door we will get to see the rest of the Island.

All three of my kids play under their own id. Only one of them had a problem with winning Wembley's rewared before the trophy. We have been playing all day and it seems that once you win the reward nothing more happens with that game and it won't let us go any further. The same thing happened with Sol, we no longer we able to win coins once we got the rewared. Of course they all want the trophies in their game room so if you have a contact for technical related questions, it would make someone very happy over here!! Thanks!!

yeah I knew about the Gems I have 3 full gems and a half of the 4th one. I have all the throphies. I am glad that you told me about SOL mask .. i am going to go home after I get off work I am off for 3 days so I will be playing probably none stop. I have not met anyone yet that has gotten all 4 gems.

One thing That I notices Is problem that is why On FunkKiKi island you earn Coconuts and not coins So there is probably part of that reason. who knows. This is so exciting to finally have a place where I can talk to others about this game.

I don't know what is taking the website so long to come online. But I like this site alot better then the website.

I got Sol's Mask to get thru the cave, I got The Webley's web gun to get across the Bridge. and when you Get the top score with the FLurry's you get a Snow suit. The narrative says that it is packed so tight that the can with stand even the hottest temperatures. So that is how you get the ORB on the other side of the Lava

We need some help back in Funkeytown. I can not get the trophy in the Museum mask mayhem game. I have been using the very rare funkey to play but I just can't get past level 5. What was your high score to get the tropy so I kind of know what I should be targeting for??

I have Nibble's trophy, but just can't seem to get his reward. We now know it's something to do with the Piranah's. My finger hurts!

I think it's great to have someone to talk to about all this stuff!

Well when I got the UBFUNKEYS i have had thems ince septemeber. And before the update it just gave you the thropy it didn't post your score like it does know. FOr museam maheim the way way is not to clear the board completely try to stretch out the complete time of the game build up alot of the same pair. i think i had like 15000 in museam maheim.

And with Nibble I have been paying for the last 2 hours and i got all the way to 65,000 and it still only gave me some MONKEY i don't want a Monkey. SO i guess Nibble's game is like Xeners game YOu have to get 100K just to get his throphy

i installed the new funkiki island updates and all the portals are still broken :( what am i doing wrong?

i had trouble with museum mask mayhem for a while as well.the trick is to take it slow and easy one the first 3 levels.dont click all of them away immediently on the early levels.because more mask will fall and you'll have more things to make points off of.

once you find the pineapple king u need a gift for him so keep shaking coconut trees and eventually a golden pineapple will fall down then you can use the coconuts to buy stuff from the natives and the pineapple turned out not to be master lox in disguise
