Wal-Mart is usally the first place where I have spotted them. My local comic shop has imported them in as well.
Here is what I don't get. If TRU can release their exclusives in Canada without the lame international packaging, why don't the single carded figure get the same treatment? I hate the international packaging.
Don't think they can release them in Quebec. Or, maybe Quebec chains refuse to sell non-international packaging. I live next door to Quebec and even in this part of Ontario, the big chains won't carry non-bilingual singles. Makes me think local managers have a say.
Either way, my money's on Quebec holding up wide-spread non-bilingual releases.
