Have any of you guys seen the Ice Dagger yet? I haven't found it at TRU or any other store carrying ROC stuff.

Never seen one, or I would own it.

Only the Steel Crusher and Gun Ship.

My review of the Rat:

A little piece of crap.

The display @ TRU Kitchener is still packed with figures.  It looks like they've sold through maybe 15-20 figures, so a bit disappointing.  I grabbed another 3 figures to help things along  :wink:

Surprisingly (to me at least) the best sellers at this store appears to be the character figures (Duke, Ripcord, Viper, Cobra Commander.)

the TRU here in London, ON cleared out a few hundred of the figures and restocked the display with the same stuff we're seeing everywhere. So a full display may be misleading.

I really want that Ice Dagger too, it was the movie vehicle I wanted the most back when photos started to leak. Hopefully they'll trickle in later this summer. Withholding and Arctic themed vehicle from the Canadian marketplace seems a bit silly...but I've also heard it's not common in the States yet either so it's probably just a matter of time for us too.

Did anyone else happen to pick up a Cobra Commander?  I opened mine and then realized he doesn't have his breathing tubes--is this common?

the only place I've heard of having ICE DAGGERS so far is some Walmarts in the States.

From what I've read the final production version of this figure doesn't not come with the tubes.

Anyone thinks TRU will have  a new assortment of figures once the sale is done?
