Yeah, if we get Legends (and it's a crapshoot) it's usually 2-3 months behind the US at least. In the past couple of years we got the Terrax & Arnim Zola waves, then nothing until the Iron Monger wave, then the Spidey Infinite series. No Cap series, none of the mini-BAF waves, and none of the TRU exclusives will ever make it over here. We're not even getting the GOTG wave at retail here.

At least we got huge quantities of red Deadpool & white Doom at discount stores here. That certainly eased the pain...
