They are all still in moving totes, but I know others have and the legs sort of work.
I agree, the longer thighs are about the only thing I think he actually needs an improvement on

Anyway I saw a Metroplex on eBay go for $140 minus shipping and I thought if anyone got it at an even greater deal... .
And DNA Designs put out an upgrade set for Scourge that looks pretty impressive.

No joke, no conniving tricks, $0.00 for one step barricade. And the cashier was more than happy to charge me that with 0 problems.
Kanrabat will understand, its a Quebec thing.

You should be.
Since over 10 years, there's a law in Quebec (Canada) that state that if the scanned price is higher than the matching label that was displayed on the shelf (with matching barcodes, of course) you get the lowest price minus 5$CAN in "punitive damage". If the total price gets in the negative, the item is free. In case you buy multiple, ONE item gets the punitive 5$ off extra while the rest is sold at the lowest price.
Since years this allowed me to get "free" stuff or heavily discounted things like 10$CAN voyagers or huge slabs of pork meat at 2$CAN a KILO.

Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.

Well, vive le Québec!
And you know the best part?
The way the taxes are calculated is they calculate the federal tax first, add the total, then the Quebec tax is calculated.
TlDr; we tax the tax! Only in Quebec!

Ahhh government efficiency. The only thing the government is efficient at is taking your money away.

You wouldn't flinch either if you could see those tax dollars at work as easily as I do. I've got 2 kids with another on the way and my wife currently has gestational diabetes so she needs weekly follow ups, insulin and the appropriate equipment. We won't be billed for the delivery, or the follow ups before then. We were only billed 40$ for all the insulin she needs for the next 4 months. Plus then she gets 1 year paid maternity leave, I get 5 weeks paid leave, and then we put our then 1 year old in daycare that only costs $7 a day due to subsidies while my wife goes back to work as a pharmaceutical tech which cost $0 to get a degree/certification in.
Basically you just have to pick your poison, I picked mine and am comfortable with it.
And back to the toys, if they cost me 0$ then the 15% tax on that is also 0, so it doesn't matter

That is a powerful argument for the good that tax can do.
