As far as i know there were two Gold figures available with the UK Volcano set however these figures were from the UK series 1 (Galthasin has the gold figs im sure so he can confirm which sculpts they are)
The gold figure you have is a figure from the series two (i think his name is Stalactite the Unforseeable) as far as i know he is not yet available in gold for the uk so i imagine he is an italian figure. Perhaps one of the italian collectors can give us more insight into which figures were available in gold

As you can see the figure shown on it is gold, and it comes with 2 different Earth tribe figures So I'm pretty certain that is where the new gold figures came from

Those two Gold Figures are available with the new(ish) Series 2 playset: The cavern of Roscamar. http://cgi.ebay.co.u...e...:1|240:1318

God dammit! Apparently there are 5 exclusive figures for the UK series two. 2 are in the eggs, 2 are in the muraden and the peak of the eagle playsets and i assumed the other one would be available in the cavern of roscamar. I wonder if all the cavern of roscamar are gold figs or if you get normal colours like what happened with the volcano. The volcano set i got did not have gold figs so i assume i have the wave 1 volcano and the gold figs were maybe in the second wave volcano.... i dont really wanna buy two caverns to get the different variations, which is what i'll likely have to do with the volcano.

I believe all 5 Exclusive UK figures are available in the eggs, One in each of the 5 different eggs. So on the bright side if you have allready bought the Muraden and peak of the eagle play sets from series 1, you won't have to get them again to get the new figures.
In this picture below the first two figures The Whirlwind guy and the Turtle guy are available in the Muraden/Peak of the Eagle twin pack. From what i had gathered two other exclusives (fig.3 and 4) would be available in the magic eggs, so that would leave Bombos (fig.5) and i guess Stalactite (the figure in gold that is pictured by laserbeast). Although Stalactite does not seem to be regarded as exclusive according to the collectors leaflet. Between UK series two and the U.S. Final Evolution repaint variants collecting this line is getting complicated

If Bombos isn't exclusive to the Magic eggs I wonder what else he will be released with?

Oh and am I the only one wandering where the Cereal Exclusive figures are? I thought all great toy lines had to do some cereal figures?
I can allways keep wishing

not that it is discounted. We as consumers are conditioned to think"On Sale"means it's cheaper.

Gold gormiti in the Isle of Gorm?! In my UK one, I got 3 Of the Tribe Leaders and 3 un-opened Gormiti Foil packs, all of which were normal colours
What were the three gold figures in the French Isle of Gorm?
here we have 2 different packages of the island od gorm. one like in UK, with Gheos etc..., and one with 3 golden figures, from serie 2. here you can see 2 of those 3 in the right
For the Volcano, we first had it with 2 lava gormiti (l'ange ardent & cracheur de feu - french names), and in a second wave the same volcano with rthe same 2 gormiti but in gold !!

Acidonia - Can you see the gold figures without having to open the box? For example if i went into Argos and asked to see it would i be able to see if it contains the Gold ones?
No you can'nt see the gold figures without opening the box the box just says contains 3 figures theres nothing saying it has gold figures in the box. The box has series 1 and series 2 art work and series 1 and 2 figures on the package it is in 2 languages it has Island Of Gorm and la isla do gorm just under it.
The figures all come in a large clear sealed plastic bag the figures are 3,4 and 5 on this picture.

If they refuse to let you, you can allways buy one, open it there and then in the shop, then return it if it hasn't got gold figures in. If you do that once, they will happily let you open the boxes afterwards to avoid having to go through the rigmoral of refunding you repeatedly untill you get the pack you want

This is the box the Uk Gold Island of gorm come in its got the same image on both box sides.here the box of wave 1 and 2 are a little different
And here are the figures.
And argos love to bring stuff out weeks before their real dates. Got the first wave of last years Yugioh tins 3 weeks before everywhere else started selling them. The tins came with the latest booster at the time that you could only get first edition prints of from the tins and the booster packs of that set came out like 3 weeks after the tins meaning the whole list of cards was known early.
