New Sale At Canadian Toys R Us Stores

This sucks, as my wife will be in Halifax tomorrow and then not again until August.. missing another TRU sale yet again.. *sniff*.. and I so wanted the Voyagers.

Awesome!
I'll be down to look around!

That part about the Robot Heroes better be true this time :s

I might pick up a couple of deluxes.

Good stuff. I'll be on the lookout for Voyager Starscream.

On a somewhat related note, does anyone know how distribution works in Canada? I'm looking at the Botcon site and notice all these exclusives for US chains that don't exist here. Is it a free for all in Canada, or do we miss out entirely? I'm a bit curious about the G1 movie releases.

The G1 Movie repaints? Well, unless there's a Target near you, you're pretty much screwed. You might be able to find them at a specialty store like Hoistimus mentioned, but their prices might be inflated.

Also, it depends on where you live. I live in Quebec, so I will most likely not see the Walmart exclusives which the rest of Canada gets since they don't bother to translate the packages.

If you want to play it safe, check out the Buy/Sell/Trade Forum and see if anyone can help you. Either that or make a border run sometime.

Good luck, happy hunting, and may you find the figures you seek, my friend!

SALE UPDATE!

From the 14th to the 20th, Zellers will have Optimash Prime on sale. He will be priced at $8 instead of $10.99, so grab him if you're looking for him!

Lucky, my Toys R Us still has only wave 1 stuff... no Swindle, no Bonecrusher, nothing.

Ironic how my TRU was among the first to get the movie toys, but it's among the last to actually get the subsequent waves of newer figures...

Crap, you're right. Mine only has Wave I stuff as well.

Looks like I'll only be picking up Ironhide this weekend.

Roger that! High five!

Unfortunately I might not be able to take advantage, seeing as my girlfriend is mad at me right now, I doubt me spending money on TFs would help the situation...

Now is the ideal time to spend time on yourself! Develop your own interests be worldly!

woo-KISHHH! (that's a whip sound, by the way)

I'm just joking around is all. Best of luck to you, hope things work out nicely.
