TF Animated Deluxe figures in stock at ToysRUs.ca

Sigh.

Will these ship to the US?

Nope. I must say though, you'd get raped by customs if it could.

TRU Canada usually will not ship items that TRU America will stock cross border and vise-versa.

It's not surprizing that they are now online as those were in TRU Canada stores 2 weeks ago.

No international shipping outside CANADA unfortunately. The Wave 1 Voyagers are in stores as reported so they should also be showing up online too I have already picked up these four deluxes and the Voyagers (Megs, Blukhead and SS) from a TRU store.

Take some solace that you will be getting them for much cheaper than we in the GWN (Canada) have to pay for them. Unless you are in Europe that is.

I tested the TRU website and it does not have much in stock. Only 10 Lockdown, 8 BB, 9 Prowl and 10 OP. May sell out in a day or two.

Well, I'm in the US, and I just wish that they'd release them already!!
Oh, well, at least I've got the Premium Series' Starscream to keep me from getting TOO angry at them...

Damnit! First you Canadians sic Celine Dion on us, then force curling into the Winter olympics, and now this! Enough already, you hosers!

I posted this in another thread....I live in Cincinnati, and I can get whatever figures you need from the first wave(some might take some searching, like Starscream), but I can send them to you right now(for a small scalper's(whoops...finder's) fee, like $5 mark-up per figure(negotiable?), not including shipping, but you get them cheaper than E-bay, or preordering from BBTS, and 1-2 months or more before HTS ships them or they appear everywhere, so win-win?) PM me and we'll see what we can work out. I'd rather my fellow TF collectors have them instead of collecting dust on the endcaps. And yes, I'll ship anywhere in the world.











I am here to help. Whatever you need, I am willing to assist! Aren't they pretty?



Megs says: Do you really want me to collect dust on some lonely shelf in an out of the way Walmart? Or collect dust on your shelves with all of the other 'bots? Don't make me glow!!!

I thought that we apologized for Celine Dion. She has left anyway. Now you have Cher to deal with. As for the curling we will never apologize

I always enjoyed Co-ed Broomball Hockey in college, now that's a fun club sport lol. Anyone ever play that?

Since it's co-ed, I imagine it would be rather interesting.

Curling is a sport to be admired, a proud national pastime!!

Now, on the topic, I wish they had the Voyagers. But I'll wait until they show up at retail anyway.

I wanted to make a good joke there, but I couldn't think of anything other than "Sweep! Sweep! Terminate Him!"

Well, well, looky what I just found today at the local K-del-Marto....

Damn, I'm so unemployed right now it hurts...

I don't expect anyone to know this, but does anyone know how well the currency/economy in Canada is compared to the dollar here in the US? I'm wondering if the figures are getting released in Canada first because Hasbro can make more money in Canada vs. US? That after all is the reason why the Wii is so scarce in America. (Nintendo makes more money in Europe with Wii's, so most of the production is focused on Europe. When their market starts to even out, then American will get more Wii's.)

Then again, that idea probably wouldn't pan out here unless more toys were being shipped to Canada and other places vs. the US. *shrugs* It's just a thought.

Well, I know that the Canadian dollar is, for the first time in ages, only pennies under the US Dollar and, at times, surpasses it. I'm not an economics student, and I'm having trouble finding work, but the CAD is doing well compared to the USD.

The parity between the US and Canadian Dollar has actully been fairly good for the last year or so, Which likely means that Hasbro and Canadian retailers are going to make more money on Canadian sales due to the higher MRP on most items.

However the release to Canadian stores for the Animated product is likely due more to the fact that Hasbro produces more product for the American market than international retail which they do need to sell thru, and the prevailing thought is that once the animated line hits shelves that the demand for Movie line product will disappear. Hence Hasbros pushing back the US release on product to June, so retailers can move more Movie figures at full cost before blowing them out once Animated and Classics/Universe is widely available later this year.

Please, I'd rather have Animated figures shipped to Canada in June rather than paying $15 for them.

Seriously, the american-canadian dollars are practically the same, yet Americans pay $10 for Deluxes and we Canadians pay $15. I don't even want to compare the other class sizes.
