Sadly a guy there that had the most TMNT stuff said that the good stuff was picked over yesterday but it was still cool. He was so nice he even gave our son a TMNT fanny pack from 1989 for free.

Sweet wish we had flea markets here. That was cool of the dude to freebie your son. Bet he was happy. But once you explained how it was worn did the joy go away lol.

No he put it on immediately and looked kinda silly but he loved it

Edit: I went to Walmart today and saw the new secret of the ooze figures but will wait till after the back to school shopping is done.

Picked up some Ooze figures last week in Ottawa.
I'm glad Spin Master followed through and distributed these in Canada. Hopefully, my numerous e-mails to them helped. Probably not but either way.

The boxes are much bigger than I'd imagined... I almost missed them because they were placed near the crappy larger Mutations figures in similar sized boxes. Considering these were $19.99 in the US, I'm happy with the price point. I was expecting them to cost $29.99.

Of course, as soon as I decided to make a trip across the border to hunt for these, they will show up a month later in Canada........
Knew it!

Go get 'em bro, totally worth it! I'm sure your Walmart will have them very soon, if not already.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 08-25-2016, 09:17 PM

Yeah hopefully. If not I'm sure will find at TrU maybe

mikeyatemypizza · 09-02-2016, 02:32 PM

Restocked in Manitoba Dauphin Walmart.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 09-04-2016, 09:24 PM

Manitoba? Has me thinking Saskatchewan gets em

Digital Ghost · 09-11-2016, 11:35 PM

Grabbed another set.. and thanks to a technical glitch with my wife's Walmart gift card, it was free! Can't beat that.
I'll probably open this one. My local Walmart stores only receive one case at a time but I'm glad to see them being restocked. Keep checking Walmart if you haven't found them yet.
Spin Master actually did a decent job getting these to us Canadians.

mikeyatemypizza · 09-12-2016, 12:09 AM

If you open that set can you tell me if Leo's joints are super loose. Out of the four he can't stand......without a stand to support him. Think I just got a bad one.

dragonside · 09-13-2016, 11:59 PM

aw man.. still nothing in alberta.

I'll have to keep checking

mikeyatemypizza · 09-15-2016, 12:54 PM

Fourth set put on the shelve already in Manitoba. Funny they are only putting these sets up one at a time. Guess it's easier for them to ship back in sealed case if they don't sell.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 09-19-2016, 03:49 PM

anyone find the Megablocks Drome? f**kin things not on TrUs website any longer

I would say something but you might get mad lol.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 09-28-2016, 01:16 AM

Oh just say it lol

mikeyatemypizza · 09-28-2016, 02:11 AM

Nope not saying I saw one in the city. To anxiously awaiting my Bandai Brothers, and of coarse Canada Post is the slowest snail mail service on earth. Ordered extra set just in case Canadian supplier pulls any funny business. Travels cross America in a day takes a week to go cross one province lol.

Sorry for the late reply... Opened and didn't have any issues with joints. These figures have been pretty decent thus far.

I strongly considered picking up a third set as my Walmarts keep getting these in but I don't know what's going on because every set I find now is terribly painted. Paint slop on eyes and teeth, just awful work. I hope this isn't a common problem but I guess for $22.99, complaints are pointless.

mikeyatemypizza · 09-28-2016, 12:27 PM

All four are fantastic on the paint. No tired toy painters worked on mine lol. Just the loose joints on My Leo. Guess will have to take him in for exchange. No lazy legs Leo for me. Thanks for getting back to me. Now if Canada post would get me my Leo and Donnie........ Back to the front window with my pizza and tequila paralyzer.
