Canadian Toy Sightings

[Shedder]

Was at Toyrus today and they had the T-Machines out. They also had the shredder track set and the shell launcher.
They now have the mix and match feature turtles and the mutating turtles.
Alas their figure are still the rat king line. Tons of mousers
When are the basic figures going to get updated here in Canada......?

This is only an opinion, but I feel like since we are getting bilingual packaging and not to mention having the whole spin masters/playmates banner that its delaying the release of the figures. I refuse to pay scalper prices on this line because if I have learned anything from years of collecting it is "be patient, be smart and be persistent".

couldn't agree more dude

i have been importing a lot lately but, other than tiger claw and robo foot soldier, i only buy them if i can get them directly from amazon since they are the only ones with fair shipping and import fees. The low dollar has been scaring me off though. I got bebop and rocksteady for my sons birthday next week but it will be a while before i get more. When we got a bunch before christmas only to have them all come out here a week before it sucked. Tigerclaw alone was $28 and it was sitting in our closet waiting to be wrapped when i was staring at one for $8 at my local walmart Dec. 17th.

my local Walmart sucks balls for having anything

Anyone pickup the 3d wall lights weapon hands from Target? 50% off so they would be around $15 a piece. Couldn't find a stock price anywhere so I left all four there. Guessing at $30 from what I was able to find online. I asked an employee but She didn't care and I couldn't understand her accent.

[nellyp]

We picked up the Leo hand and sword when they were 20%...I believe they were $30 before discount. Not interested in getting the whole set but we were considering the Leo face to go with it if it is still there.

I grabbed the Donnie head and hand/bo for my son for Christmas. Paid $35-$40 each. Went back to get the others once they started the clearance but couldn't find them all, and wasn't going to risk not completeing the set.

The hand/bo leaves a lot to be desired when the light is on. Seems like just one single light in the palm. Not sure if mine is defective. The face lights up nicely though! The crack stickers were a pain the but to get on the wall though. Those fold creases aren't easy to flatten.

still have yet to find anything of value at my local Walmart! next time we make it to Regina and the Super Center there hopefully Ill have better luck

The last couple months I have seen them several times in my area (Toronto) and also North York and Durham Regions (Ontario). Always at Walmart.

OK thanks. I guess its just west of T.O. that isn't getting any new shipments (I'm in Burlington)

I wouldn't say we are getting many new shipments in the GTA...I almost think its just that no one is buying them

They are pretty awful figures.

The comic turtles are being restocked here on the east coast in Moncton, but they seem to be more peg warmers than most of the recent stuff.

Finally the toysrus here got some t-machine car 2 packs to go with the track sets. Shredders revenge was out 3 weeks ago and the garage last week.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Still haven't seen any tmachines yet, hopefully next time make it to regina

I'm more fortunate that I live in BC close enough to druve axross the boarder to look for new stuff.
Better than waiting half a year and still now sure if we are getting new stock or not.... Man, the nightmare of collecting during the 4Kids show period...

[TheCanadiandrome]

only bad thing is our dollar being a total sh*t cluster-f*ck

[nellyp]

The toys r us where I live in Moncton got the 2 packs of the t-machines and they sold out in a couple of days. For Easter weekend I am at my parents on the other side of the province (near the U.S. Border) and the local Walmart here in Woodstock, NB(like a 30 min drive away) had the single packs of t-machines. This is the first time seeing them at a Walmart. For my boys for Easter we picked up a Donnie and shredder.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Cool man cool

[Turtle_power_eh?]

Seen T machines at Walmart on my last few visits (Toronto and East GTA stores), singles and 2 packs.

Are any of these considered chase items?

Anyone seen the Funko Hikari Raph glitter version anywhere? I need him to complete the set of 4.

A real sh😱t storm boys. I haven't bought anything outside of Canada since before Christmas. Except for a Tom Baker head. Everything else has been purchased from within the Can.
