Snake-Eyes v. 3
Red and white once again! We've restored the classic look of JoeCanuck.
The original GI JOE cartoon was never shown on a Canadian station in my area. It was shown on a independent station in Buffalo, which later became apart of Fox. And yet the toy line did well in the 1980s in Southern Ontario. My point was a cartoon doesn't have to be shown on Canadian airwaves in order to put the product in stores if a cartoon is already on TV via American airwaves. Sigma Six is on Fox and any kid would have this station as well as YTV to view. (I can't believe I am making arguement for this crappy line to be in stores).
Quote from: ""BHT""
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:
They have some 'Dinosaur' wave coming out. The show on YTV will have shows to do with this line on. The NEXT wave will be 'Future Turtles'. Since the Cartoon won't be shown in Canada - the toys are NOT available to me.
Same with some other lines. If there is no show to back it up here in Canada - then there're no product.
So if YTV drops or doesn't carry Sigma Six - then we get none.

This makes no logical sence on their part as Canadians get Fox broadcasting. Exposure is exposure.
