As a Québécois, I'm proud to be part of the province who butcher and vandalise all of Canada's TFs!

French is important to us Québécois. The laws are relentless and heavy over here. Québec is powerful and we are like a huge and tall bully who order the rest of Canada around. If Hasbro dont want to put some French in their Transformers toys, WE WILL MAKE THEM REMOVE THE ENGLISH!
So, Canadians, enjoy wour IDW Generations deluxes WITHOUT the comic that is supposed to come with. No dirty English only comics will sully those pure 23$ deluxes!
HOW DARE METROPLEX SPEAK IN ENGLISH BUT NOT FRENCH?! Shut up, giant mister, it's only "beep" and "woosh" sounds from now on!
Be grateful that we still allow you English speaking FILTH to have your English only Masterpieces. We Québécois will take those away from you one way or another....

Alow me to slowly blow my brain out.

At least they're not exclusive comics. But those cards, all with that bad Orion Pax art, those are -hilarious-

By the way...
TrU is charging 22.50 mother **** dollars plus 15% taxes. That's 25.87 EACH figures.
BBTS have the first 4 for 55$. Add 19.50$ to ship to Canada.
So, Canadian TrU: 103.48$ total for 4 figure WITHOUT comics.
BBTS: 74.50$ total for 4 figures WITH comics.
Who want to buy local again?

Ah yes French Canada.
If they're so anal about French, why do they even allow the TFs to still be called Transformers? Why not translate that title and all the names as well?.

Already done. In G1, in the 1980's, it was still "Transformers", but ALL the names were translated. Both the English and French names were on the box and manuals and they were called by their French names in the French dub of the show.
Nowadays, the law gave a break on the names so we can avoid some ridiculous appelations. Still, there's that hardcore faction who want to bring that law back.
sigh...

I heard that Autralia's minimum wage is like over 9000$ an hour so it even out.
Right?

Is there another Australia that I haven't heard about? If so, I want to move there for some of those wages

Not just that, but Superman is in reality from Australia and not from a different planet. Fact is, if you survive till you're 5 in Australia, you can survive anything.

I don't really care. TFs aren't that expensive in Alberta and the comics are available at comic stores. It's a trivial thing to have the same card artwork on these toys but they're not the reason I buy the toys. I do find it unfortunate that Quebec has to deal with this crap and still pay spiked up TRU prices over the HST or GST/PST added on.

Time's have changed
Our kids are getting worse
They won't obey their parents
They just want to fart and curse
Should we blame the government?
Or blame society?
Or should we blame the images on TV?
No, blame Canada, blame Canada
With all their beady little eyes
And flappin' heads so full of lies
Blame Canada, blame Canada
We need to form a full assault
It's Canada's fault
Don't blame me for my son Stan
He saw the darn cartoon
And now he's off to join the Klan
And my boy Eric once
Had my picture on his shelf
But now when I see him he tells me to ****
myself
Well, blame Canada, blame Canada
It seems that everything's gone wrong
Since Canada came along
Blame Canada, blame Canada
There not even a real country anyway
My son could've been a doctor or a lawyer it's
true
Instead he burned up like a piggy on a
barbecue
Should we blame the matches?
Should we blame the fire?
Or the doctors who allowed him to expire?
Heck no
Blame Canada, blame Canada
With all their hockey hubbabaloo
And that bitch Anne Murray too
Blame Canada, shame on Canada
The smut we must stop, the trash we must
smash
Laughter and fun must all be undone
We must blame them and cause a fuss
Before someone thinks of blaming us

Speaking of HTS, they wont accept non-American Paypal. Credit cards are mandatory. Also, NO FREE SHIPPING. Ever. They charge a minimum of 32$ of FeDex shipping, even for a single deluxe. The cherry on top is they charge a TAX on top of that! For a single toy, it's less hassle and cheaper to pay a scalper off Ebay!

No one will ever care enough.
At least, as far as I can tell, Target is kind enough to have French on their exclusives so EVERYONE will be able to buy them.
Now, if only TrU would stop hogging all the Masterpieces and if only they would give some to Target. Becasue Target seem to care.

Maybe instead of Quebec trying to seceded the rest of the country should vote them off the island!

This is assuming that Target wants Masterpieces. Perhaps TRU is the only outlet willing to take on the Masterpiece figures.

I know Walmart kinda failed with MP Skywarp. However, recent MP sale figures should give a clue that it's profitable and marketable. With the shitload of MPs that are coming out (kinda a new Alternator line if you ask me) Target could take over the MP cars. If they are reasonably priced, dont make me beleive they will be shelfwarmers.
Come on, Target, get on with the game! And keep putting the French on the packaging. You have just open a dozen stores in Québec. Bring on your exclusives here and try to get the Masterpieces too! We too, have spare income to burn.
