Skittles Candy Pack XBOX Avatar Prop FREEBIE US Dashboard
A new advert for Skittles has been spotted on the US Dashboard. A decent little flash pinball game as well as downloads
for a Theme and Skittles Candy Pack Avatar Prop. Let us know if you see it on your countries dashboard.
The Advert has been giving a lot of people trouble, us included in finding it. For some reason it is not showing up very often at all, but many people have assured us that it is on the US Dashboard. Many fans have said they got it.
Here is Proof that it does exist.

Good looking out. I hate the ad ones though since they never seem to show the ad you’re looking for. It took forever for my dash to show me the paranorman one.
August 9, 2012 at 12:01 AM
me too
August 9, 2012 at 8:16 PM
Me, too. I did finally get ParaNorman’s dog avatar thing, but I never got Abe Lincoln Vampire Hunter or Cars Land.
BTW, I Have a Noble-Six Halo Reach Avatar Helmet for trade of pretty much anything rare that I don’t have.
August 11, 2012 at 11:41 AM
Are you a male or female? Because I have a rare sherlock holmes avatar outfit for a female avatar
August 11, 2012 at 5:59 PM
I’m a guy, but my fiance would appreciate it. I no longer have the Noble Six Halo Reach Helmet, but I do have 2 Male and 2 Female “Xbox ♥ You” red shirts. I will also have Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix and Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike Online Edition full game redemption codes to trade for avatar props in September, so keep me in mind.
August 11, 2012 at 6:00 PM
Oh and a code for “Executive Status” multiplayer DLC for Syndicate.
August 11, 2012 at 6:12 PM
Darn! But ok I’ll keep you in mind.
August 13, 2012 at 3:52 PM
Now I have an extra Kinect prop code.
August 13, 2012 at 5:34 PM
I don’t need the Kinect prop, but thanks. I’ll wait for next month.
August 9, 2012 at 6:28 PM
This prop is not real. Skittles never sponsored Xbox 360. The Skittles ads will not appear so plz don’t fall for this scam. You’ve been warned!
August 9, 2012 at 6:42 PM
Do you think we make this up for the fun of it? Check your Gamer Pics and Themes, you will see Skittles. We agree it is not popping up in fact we have not seen it yet. But LOTS of others have and have the Skittles Prop, made videos of it, plus the image of the Skittles is from XBOX website.
All that aside, we are NOT gonna post fake stuff. We benefit nothing by doing that.
August 9, 2012 at 11:14 PM
i bet on monday it will show up like ParaNorman’s dog avatar did
August 10, 2012 at 2:44 AM
I am telling you it’s not real. I am a professional. You can’t fool me. What all this is we are seeing here is a scam and it’s crime. This is unacceptable and it has to stop.
August 10, 2012 at 5:50 PM
@Radiant Zetagun
You’re a professional… what exactly? Why is it a scam? How did they steal my money? If it is fake, why is it an unacceptable problem? What harm came from it?
August 10, 2012 at 6:05 PM
How Did You Got That Prop
August 12, 2012 at 10:35 PM
@Radiant Zetagun
The only thing that you’re a professional at is being a dumb ass because I got the advertisement today and I got the avatar prop today. Dumb ass.
August 10, 2012 at 2:24 AM
I got the ad for skittles once and only once so far but i didn’t know it had an avatar item if i had known that i would have looked for the item in the ad itself. The ad does involve a mini game. It has a pinball game in the ad. The main one I’ve been seeing today was an Obama ad. Why I don’t know. It starting to bother me because i keep seeing it constantly its getting annoying.
August 10, 2012 at 8:12 AM
shut up loser it is real just go to hell
August 10, 2012 at 9:03 PM
Eff U!
August 10, 2012 at 9:33 AM
Why do people even bother with avatar props anymore??
No one can see them animate anyway
August 10, 2012 at 8:29 PM
I can see all my friends’ avatar prop animations just fine on my dashboard
August 16, 2012 at 3:38 PM
I can see all of my friends’ props and they can see mine.
August 10, 2012 at 9:20 PM
The Skittles prop is a scam. Seriously, nothing you guys say will ever convince me to change my mind to believing that it’s real. Skittles prop is not real and the ads never has those. Anyone who says they have it needs to see a doctor.
August 10, 2012 at 10:28 PM
Well sorry the facts, pics, people telling you, video proof isn’t enough for you. Guess you won’t be getting it.
August 10, 2012 at 11:51 PM
we will get it
August 16, 2012 at 4:34 PM
Ok, so no offence, but you’re being a little harsh. At first I didn’t believe it (I mean I tried refreshing my dashboard 25 times) but then I logged in my friend and there was the ad…
But seriously, these are false accusations. If you still think your accusations are true, talk to an attorney and stop leaving a ton of negative posts even though people HAVE found it.
If you seriously need more proof: here you go http://youtu.be/ISNCAzl_Zik
August 11, 2012 at 12:13 AM
This has gone far enough! I am going to have this post about this fake Skittles prop deleted. You just indiscriminately disclosed false information when these ads never existed!
August 11, 2012 at 12:19 AM
You ain’t to bright is ya!?
And I know, that’s you that is even posting on the video. Not sure why you keep insisting this is all a scam, maybe you hate Skittles and prefer M&M’s or something, but you are about to be banned from here. No one cares if you think it’s fake, you are only making yourself look even more stupid.
Good luck.
August 11, 2012 at 12:57 AM
thank you xboxavatargear your awesome
August 12, 2012 at 12:27 AM
Can you give us some more info? What dashboard version are you using? I ask because I have refreshed my dash at least 200 times and have yet to even see the Dark Knight Rises IMAX ad, much less the Skittles.
Most of my ads have been the same, Nokia and the Army…even sometimes playing on multiple pages. US Gold Member here.
August 11, 2012 at 11:44 AM
Can’t find it 😦 I’m in the US and have a handy trick for the dashboard beta, but it still doesn’t show up 😦
August 11, 2012 at 8:13 PM
your trick sucks lol
August 12, 2012 at 12:01 AM
What is the trick by the way
August 13, 2012 at 5:08 PM
Been trying to get the ad to pop, but no luck so far.
August 14, 2012 at 1:17 AM
me too no luck so far
August 14, 2012 at 3:38 PM
Finally got it! One of my friends had the advertisement pop up on his profile, so I logged myself in on a second controller (Had to log him out of the first controller after that so it would read on my profile), then downloaded it! Four hours of my life wasted when my friend got it on the first try, . . .
August 14, 2012 at 3:51 PM
Can you tell us, is your friend young? Trying to figure out why some people get it right away.
August 14, 2012 at 5:03 PM
He’s 18. I’m in my 30’s.
I dont know why it was popping up for him. Every time we loaded the home page, the ad was on 2-3 pages.
August 14, 2012 at 5:04 PM
Crazy, we have tried 4 different times and still yet to see it on our XBOX.
August 14, 2012 at 5:30 PM
The funny thing is, I was trying to show him now to nab a few of the other freebies (The Tablet & Dr. Peper Theme to be specific) when it showed up.
I cant get the ad to show up on either my wife’s account, or either of my boy’s accounts either.
August 16, 2012 at 3:43 PM
I’ve refreshed my dashboard like 20 times already and it still hasn’t shown up. I’m gonna go ahead and try this on my Xbox 😀
August 16, 2012 at 3:51 PM
Yup. Just tried it. Showed up on the first try.
August 15, 2012 at 7:48 PM
may you mark this as not rare because i got this ad 15 times today and i already have it. >.<
August 15, 2012 at 9:48 PM
this is real i looked it up on xbox.com and i tried to download it from there and it told me it was not for my region and i live in the USA
August 15, 2012 at 11:47 PM
i still haven’t seen this ad show up 😦
August 16, 2012 at 3:55 PM
Try signing in on your account and a friend’s account (the friend’s account on another controller) and odds are that the ad may show up on the second player’s dashboard. Then you can go into the ad and log out of your friend’s account and it will download to your account.
August 22, 2012 at 3:04 PM
I Created a silver account for a visiting family member and as soon as it singed on, there it was!! I have been looking for this prop since the first day it posted.It’s not the greatest idea, but try to make a new silver account and maybe you will get lucky too. I live in Louisiana,and i used 1991 as his birth year. Hope this can help you.
September 27, 2012 at 10:07 PM
Well, I had to change my date of birth, from my Windows Live account to finally see the Skittles ad on the Xbox dashboard! This is how to get the Skittles and Slim Jim ads…
“Skittles and Slim Jim avatar item:
Go to this link and log in with your US account:
https://login.live.com/login.srf?wa=…=1043&id=38936
Change your age to 01-01-1994 to get the Skittles pack advertisement. Change your gender to male, country to United States and the state to Florida to get the Slim Jim T-shirt advertisement.”
i got this tip from a member of CheapAssGamer.com…
it took about 1 minute for the Skittles ad to appear after refreshing the dashboard 4 times. This still won’t work for everyone, but it will for some…
