Title: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: SnakeEyesOnAPlane on March 30, 2008, 10:51:24 AM
Not sure if this already exists, nor of a better place to have one.  In this thread, we can report our sightings, however big or small.  I'm sure your fellow Joe Canucks will appreciate your scouting reports!

I recently went to Carrefour Angrignon looking for Joes.  The only Joe-related product I saw were a couple of Sigma Six Paratrooper Dukes. :shifty: I wasted my day, but I hope that some of you won't have to know that you know.  And knowing is half the battle!

EDIT: Oh, I forgot to mention that Capitaine Qu?bec still has the Joes' 5-pack, but that's all the Joe stuff they have except for 2 comic book trades.

Where is "Capitaine Qu?bec"? I never heard about them...

Sometimes, I got to TRU (St-Bruno). I never saw a Joe there...  :'(

They're this awesome comic shop on Ste-Catherine's, in the area of the Guy Metro station.  They're right across the street from Librarie Astro, another awesome comic store.

Winners on Taschereau has some Sigma Six stuff - Sigma Strike Duke for $12.99, Helicopter pack Snake-Eyes, and Duke with Quad.  (I didn't get the price on those last 2 items)

WOAH!  This is great!  Today I saw some Joes at the Brossard Toys R Us!  They are on the new Canadian cards and lookin' great.
The wave includes Duke w/Jetpack & US flag, Viper, HISS Driver, Spirit, yet another Snake-Eyes, and Wild Bill, I think.

yet another Snake-Eyes...

Wow. Even a guy named "Snake Eyes on a Plane is complaining about all the Snake Eyes.

I'm going to try to check it out this weekend. Might get the Duke and a couple of Vipers, if they have 'em. Or I'll check the Pointe Claire TRU. Although D'Artagnan, a specialty shop that sells toys just moved there. I wonder if they'll clear TRU out. :/

Thanks for letting us know!

Post by: SnakeEyesOnAPlane on May 25, 2008, 06:21:25 PM
If you guys are interested, the Brossard TRU still has a lot of figures left, and there's still at least 1 Viper!  Plus, there is the HISS Driver with typo sticker. ("Ennemy" instead of "Enemy" ;D)

Yikes!  The Joes are all gone from the Brossard TRU (probably old news, I'm guessing) and they don't have any more on the pegs.  And no designated area on the pegs...
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: martin-montreal on June 29, 2008, 05:09:03 PM
I'm back from TRU St-Bruno and they have: Duke w/Jetpack & US flag (x3), Spirit (x3), Snake-Eyes v34 (x2), and Wild Bill (x3).

TRU Anjou has wave 7 of single cards. Snake Eyes, Duke, Spirit, Wild Bill and one viper.
No more Hiss driver.

They also have the cool chap mei police car and van box set.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: Redmao on July 04, 2008, 11:09:57 AM
Legends has both wave 7 and 8 in stock, no Hiss driver though.
Figures are $14.99 except for TF Flint who's $19.99.
They have both the international and American packaging.

They have also the 3 commanders three packs.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: SnakeEyesOnAPlane on July 04, 2008, 12:28:07 PM
Crap, that's expensive.

Namur Walmart has no Joes, at least I didn't see any.

EDIT: Brossard TRU has restocked on Wave 7 single cards.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: Madman on July 07, 2008, 07:34:31 PM
I picked up 4 Vipers and a Hiss driver this past weekend. I snagged them up just in case anyone else is in need of them. Selling them at cost, otherwise I'll return them this coming weekend. If anyone needs them let me know.

Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread

TRU in Laval. They usually have nothing, so I was surprised to see 'em. They had 2x duke, 2x spirit, 2x wild bill, and 3x snake-eyes left as of last week.

Not Sure if they just put 'em out/restocked.

I occasionally hit up any TRU when I'm in the area.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: SnakeEyesOnAPlane on July 25, 2008, 10:15:57 PM
Went to Legends today.  They are now located at 7378 St-Hubert (when walking there from the Jean Talon metro, turn left at St-Hubert instead of right).

They have some 25th Joe vehicles: Serpentor's Chariot/Armadillo, VAMP, HISS, and Trouble Bubble/RAM, $24.99 each.  I grabbed the VAMP since I love that truck and I'm a total Clutch whore.  (Click here for some figcomic proof) (http://http://www.majhost.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=170275)

They have a bunch of 25th single carded figs, $15 a piece.  Pass.  I also saw the 3-pack of blue CC and some Cobra troopers, the pack that has them in plastic tubes.  I think it's a TRU exclusive.  They also have a bunch of non-25th stuff if you're interested.

Near the entrance they have a 12" Bazooka figure, I'm not sure if it's from the new 12" line or if they have any more.  The price is $20, if I remember correctly.

Happy hunting, guys!

Nothing as usual...meaning this TRU has gotten zero 25th anni gijoe stuff
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: SnakeEyesOnAPlane on August 14, 2008, 09:20:27 PM
TRU Brossard has nothing.  The 2 Wild Bills that were there last week are gone.  Just my luck, I dropped in today to buy one.  Shag me sideways!  I'll wait for a restock.  Oh yeah, there's no peg/shelf space designated for Joes.

Greenfield Park Zellers seems to have received some vehicle packs!  I bought the Armadillo/Serpentor pack, and there was only a VAMP left.  I'd have bought the RAM/Trubble Bubble had it been there.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: SnakeEyesOnAPlane on August 20, 2008, 10:08:46 PM
Zellers Greenfield Park:
No Joe stuff at all, except for a Sigma 6 Paratrooper Duke.  The 25th VAMP is gone.

TRU Brossard:
Only 3 carded figs left: a Viper, a Baroness, and another I don't remember.  It wasn't Wild Bill.

Brossard Toys R Us got the 25th Joe vehicles: Armadillo pack and the black HISS.  No VAMP.  I'm not sure if the pacakge is the multilingual one, but knowing how anal TRU is, I'm guessing it is.  $21.99 each.

Latinjoe22 was right!  I went to the Brossard TRU today and was shocked.  They restocked single-carded figures, and there are new ones: Torpedo, General Hawk, Barbecue, Snow Serpent (that's his name, right?  The arctic Cobra dude), a BAT, Bazooka, as well as Wild Bill, a Viper, 2 Urban Roadblock, and a Chest-Daggers Snake-Eyes.

They also had 2 comic packs!  #24 and #21.  I grabbed the #21 as I missed it when I first saw it at Zellers about half a year ago.

In terms of vehicle packs, they still just have the Armadillo vs Serpentor and HISS packs.

Toys R Us Anjou has received two cases of Wave 9.
Here's what's left on the peg:

Ninja Ku x1
Snow Serpent x1

Torpedo x 1

They also restocked their Chap Mei aisle.
The have the police car and wagon set

I just bought Data Frame/Beachead comic pack but it was great to see all these figures.

10 pegs?? Awesome.

I went to the Brossard TRU today, and they had restocked the peg with the General Hawk/Snow Serpent/BAT wave, but get this: among the figures were 1 Flash and 1 Major Bludd.  I guess we are getting the re-released figures from waves gone by!  Score!

Sorry for the double-post.

Hey, guys, the Bay downtown has the Weather Dominator DVD pack!  They also have the one with the irradiated Snake-Eyes, but some smegging repacker must have returned it: the Cobra and his gun are missing, replaced instead with a second irradiated Snake-Eyes...

The packs cost $25 each.

Yeah, but only the Weather Dominator pack and 1 repacked irradiated Snake-Eyes one.  Speaking of that one, it's still on the shelf, only this time the second Snake-Eyes (the one the guy swapped for the Cobra) is missing, replaced with a second diver Baroness, with her gun taped into the section where the Cobra's gun went!

TRU Anjou is filled with...desolation.
I think they're changing the aisle because the SW aisle was empty. Barely no super heroes to speak of , a few Transformers (several of the same 3 figures) and the only joes they had were Spirit and Wild Bill.

Uh oh.  I went to the Brossard TRU today.  There are still 5 Will Bills.  Not just that, but the price of a single-carded Joes went up a dollar.  So, if you're looking for a $10.99 Wild Bill, you know where to go.

Brossard TRU has the movie stuff.  Some things I remember seeing:

- children's costumes
- Combat Heroes
- Mole Pod, Armadillo, Snow Job's sled, Ferret ATV, Cobra Gunship, Hummer, Night Raven vehicles
- kiddie Battle Roller things
- some Sigma 6-style figures
- 3.75" Snake-Eyes, Storm Shadow, Baroness, desert Duke, Destro, Scarlett, Cover Girl, Shipwreck, Deep Six, Breaker (might have been more)
- some larger figures, including a Snake-Eyes

There might have been more stuff, but that's what I remember.

Alpha vehicles: 24.99$
Bravo vehicles: 34.99$
Night Raven: 59.99$
Singles: 9.99$
Combat Heroes: 9.99$
12'': 29.99$

I should have specified.  I meant that they sorta have the animated look of the Sigma 6 series.  But, they are short, look really chunky, don't seem to have much articulation nor gear, and are overpriced - I think they're about $17 each! :shifty:
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: Madman on July 04, 2009, 03:49:06 PM
Yeah, those are the action battlers. I think they have something similar with the transfomeres line.

I've seen the ROC figures and vehicles available at a couple of TRUs and Wal-marts I checked the past few days, so it's safe to say they are readily available and I think everyone should be able to find most figures without too much trouble at the moment. I'm not sure if Wal-mart is going to be full force like TRU.

The TRUs I passed by had about 8-10 cases, with tons of vehicles while Wal-marts appears to have 2 cases out at a time.

The vehicle prices at Wal-mart is cheaper

Alpha vehicles: 19.92$
Bravo vehicles: 28.92$
Night Raven: 49.92$
Singles: 9.44$ (not too much of a difference)

Happy hunting everyone!!!!!

Sunny Sunday report:

Legends has the Night Raven and the 12" SE and SS. No single card figures yet, but the store is still filled with 25A goodness.

Wally Langelier has 7 figures left in stock: Breaker, black suit Duke, Scarlett, Snake Eyes (commando), Heavy Duty, Storm Shadow (mercenary) and Ripcord

TRU Anjou welcomes you with a big crate thingy filled with Joes right in the entrance, no big display yet since Transformers still occupies that spot. More figures can be found in the action figures section. The have an aisle end filled with figures and about 4 more pegs in the aisle facing the SW toys. All the common figures are available. They must've restocked since last week since they now have Shipwreck who wasn't present a week ago.
No signs of the Paris Pursuit people yet.

I went at Wallmart Longueuil today. I only found a Tripwire... at first. When I was leaving, I saw at the end of the aisle the ROC figs with vehicles (Steel Crusher, Night Raven, etc.) each were there 3 times. So take care to look everywhere before leaving!

Legends doesn't have movie figures yet, but the do have some of those Hall of Heroes boxed figures.  Ridiculously priced at about $18 each, more than a Comic Pack!

Comic shops Capitaine Quebec and 1,000,000 Comics have the single-carded movie figures for about $15 a pop.  Pass!

Last day of the Buy-One-Get-One deal at the TRU. 

Yesterday, I went to the Brossard TRU and Dix-30 Walmart.  Brossard TRU has nothing worth mentioning.  Walmart has those 'role-play' things, like a flashlight that shoots a missile and some wrist-launcher thing.  The only figures they had were a few impact-armour dukes, some gravity suit Wayans, green-camo Heavy Duty and a Deep-Six. 

If you're looking for vehicles, check out Sears.  The Night Raven's cheaper by $5 or $10 [sorry, I don't remember] and the Alphas are $18 instead of $25.

Yes, that's the one.

The problem is that wal-mart for some reason doesn't like to stock joes. But when they do, it's only a case at a time, even more rare if it's two.

Since there was only one that day (and the only one that was stocked I'm sure), I doubt it's still there after the weekend. But if you really want it, maybe go check it out.

The good thing is that most of the wal-marts have been cleaned out and don't even have a single figure left on the pegs. So it could be a sign of the newer waves coming soon....or worse a restock of the same.

Well, the good news is I found Collection 2 Wave 3 at the Lasalle Wal-Mart.

The bad news (for everyone but yours truly anyway) is that they only had one of each figure and I picked up Hawk, Flash, the PIT Commando and Mary Sue, so all that's left there is the Crimson Neo-Viper and the Eel.

Now, if only Collection 1 Wave 3 would show up so I can get Paris Pursuit Baroness and Arctic Storm Shadow...
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: Jay on September 04, 2009, 09:24:14 PM
The Eel is still lingering there, by the by.

Can't say I'm susprised... the new head, vest, gun and torpedo sled are spiffy but just reusing Torpedo's entire body and accessory set makes it feel redundant.
If they'd at least gone with the new forearms on the 25th Anniversary Eel, and either said Eel's two knife sheaths or at least the Cobra Diver's more futuristic pistol, it would've been a better look.

You can see the Collection/Wave breakdown here:
http://generalsjoes.com/g-i-joe-the-ris ... superpage/ (http://generalsjoes.com/g-i-joe-the-rise-of-cobra-toy-superpage/)

Far as I've seen, we haven't seen Collection 1 Wave 3 yet.
And has anyone seen Collection 1 Wave 2 in decent numbers yet? I still need the Ice-Viper from that wave.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread

To all interested:

Wal-Mart Lasalle has restocked on ROC figures. I've spotted all of Collection 2 Wave 3 except the Eel, managed to snag myself an Elite-Viper. There's still one of each figure from the wave there except the Eel, which wasn't there, and the PIT Commando, that I found two of.

They also had Paris Pursuit Snake-Eyes, Storm Shadow and Cobra Commander (holes in chest version).

In addition, Toys'r'us Lasalle had the Ice Dagger vehicle. But keep in mind it's more expensive than it would be if you got it at Wal-Mart or Sears or Zellers.

Oh, I should specify!
The 2-packs aren't in the main action figure aisle. They're past the bicycles section, just before the board games that finish the toy section.

How much are the two-packs?

My buddy found 1 Helix, just one, at the Brossard TRU on the South Shore.

$16 for two figures?  I might get a pack or two.

And I'm sure the Brossard TRU'll restock on Evo Rogue soon enough.

Zellers has the Pit for 139.99$. My local store had at least 8 in stock. I passed on it, but managed to snag a couple of Pit Commandos, a Flash and Hawk. Also saw Helix.

BTW, Night Raven is on sale at Zellers for 39.99$ until October 22nd.

Also, don't forget the TRU sale: single-carded figures for $6 or $7 [sorry, don't remember exactly] and Bravo vehicles for $25.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread

6.97$, SEOAP.

Just picked myself up some spare army builders for the occasion.

Also, saw a Para-Viper at the Angrignon Zellers. Nobody else from his Collection 1 Wave 3 wave, probably all got snatched up by someone who beat me to it.

No more Pit Commandos at the Brossard TRU.  But they have the Hawk/Helix/Flash/red dude/whoever else wave.  And Ice Daggers.

Champlain Mall Sears has the Crimson Hydra.  I grabbed a Dragonfly and it might have been the last one.  Sorry, guys...!

Brossard TRU also has the wave with Arctic Storm Shadow [torn-up clothes] and the doctor.  There's one Doctor left.

I bought one, took off the coat, hair, and neck piece, gave him a Pit Commando's gasmask - instant Psycho Mantis.

Picked up another Doctor, Kamakura and another Pit Commando at Zellers last night. Charbroil was already gone, but I left Nano-Viper, Red Fang Ninja and Night Adder on the pegs... Looks like wave 4 has officially hit Montreal.

I saw the Target Rhino at 3 different Zellers yesterday as well. They seem to have at least 20-25 per store. They might be gearing up for a special sale or an end cap promotion or something like that. I'm sure 80$ isn't the cheapest we'll see them. I'm hoping that it's a sign that we'll be getting the other Target exclusives as well. I wouldn't mind picking up a few SNAKE armors or gliders.

Also saw Alpha vehicles wave 2 at Angrignon TRU. I picked up the last Snarler cycle, but there were at least 3 or each of the Sky Sweeper and Cobra Mantis left.

The TRU big book arrived yesterday as well. Starting Friday, single Joes are 3 for 20$ and alpha vehicles are 5$ off.

Quick note for you guys, in spite of what it says on the price tag, single Joe figures are 8.99$ at Sears. So if you want a figure, and TRU doesn't have it with their 3-for-20$ deal... Check Sears before Zellers or anywhere else.

It's still 10$ more than an Alpha class vehicle, 5$ less than a figure four-pack, 5$ more than a figure three-pack, same price as a Bravo class vehicle, etc.

And Zellers seems to KNOW how much they screw you over with that price... because the packages have those magnetic tags that trigger the alarm system at the exits.

I encourage everyone who's outraged at the price to call HBC customer service at 1-888-226-2225 and issue a complaint in regards to the price. If you have the product # or the SKU of the toy handy, it's really helpful when you call.

Yeah, 29.99$ is pretty high. But there is actually a sale at Zellers (25% off on GI Joe toys). Meaning the Black Snake armor is now 22.49$. So I took one.

There is pretty much everything at Zellers "Galeries d'Anjou". Figs, vehicles, 3-pack, etc.

The sale is up to November 19. Good luck everyone!

Brossard Zellers has those figure-and-small-vehicle packs for a WTF-inducing $30 each.  They also had those 'rescure' 4-packs.

Brossard TRU has some new Alpha vehicles: a Cobra mini-sub, a blue Joe jet (repaint of the Firebat), and the grey motorcycle with Beachhead and Airborne.  Its box is SLIGHTLY smaller than the others.

Today was the last day of the Zellers sale, and the first day that I actually stepped into a Zellers. I went to the Zellers in Cote-Des-Neiges, and at 22.50$ plus tax for a Serpent armor with Neo Viper 2-pack, I was not disappointed. I bought 2, and also a Cobra 25th 5pack I missed on which also came down to 22.50. I opened one of the two Serpents tonight, and boy, I can tell you that at 30$ a pop, it's still worth it for me. It's the nicest Snake armor version I've owned. And I do own the grey and blue versions to be able to tell you this.

I also went to Toy Wars before that, and bought 2 ARAH figures mint on card, both packages punched but in awesome shape. This was definetely a gijoe day for me, long to be remembered in my memories. I'm so happy I'll say this if anyone can remember: YO-O-JACK!!! :lol:

Anyhow, just not to trail off the subject: I did find that Zeller's 25% off sale helped to get the Serpents at a decent price.

If you think about it without looking at the U.S. price for once, 22.50$ for a nice Viper with three weapons and a backpack, worth let's say 7.50$ in the whole deal, leaving the Serpent at 15$ before tax, is a good treat.

While some might've been outraged at the initial mark-up, we were given the chance to get them at a fair price during the promotion. If you didn't chance at them for your reasons, well, that was your own right and I can't blame you...more for me!  :lol:

All I can foresee is that even if we don't complain about the prices, if the sales numbers don't do justice to what was projected by the companies, we can expect the prices to change in the future, or....not get as much exclusive merchandise, nor get better prices. Let's not forget what the traditionnal meaning of "EXCLUSIVE" stands for: Only sold at this store, and/or available for a unique market. It is not really clear for me who exactly is the targetted market for these Joe exclusive items, but I can take a blind guess that it won't be really parents shopping for their kids around the Holidays. But we can think that studies had to be done to some extent to observe the canadian collector market, and that these studies will follow how we behave as an evolving market in the future, so that it may meet our demands and supply us in the best way. We are the ones who asked for in store exclusives in the first place, so let us not forget this.

We did receive Target exclusives to stores in Canada after all, and I find that this was the first step towards a bigger tomorrow.

For just 5$ more than the non-sale price of Storm Shadow with the Arashikage Cycle... I can get a Storm Shadow with Arashikage Cycle that's three times bigger at Wal-Mart.

Cool. You're happy with Storm Shadow, while I'm happy with the Snake at the price I paid, that's unquestionable and that's my only point. And there's no but about that, and it's-like-that, and-that's-the Way-it-is...huh!  ;D. That's it - I just needed to have closure, and did not meant to argue.

And I agree, let's carry on with the sighting threads.

Yes, but I'm happy with it for the sale price I paid for it. Now that the sale is over, well...

(plus, as much as I like the Cobra Jetpack, I found that one to be too expensive because I'm not crazy about the Air-Viper... Maaaybe if they'd given the jetpack a stealthier color scheme)

Wal-Mart near Namur metro has the first wave of Pursuit of Cobra. I snatched two Desert-Vipers, an Arctic Storm Shadow and a Jungle Ripcord, leaving a Jungle Ripcord, an Arctic Storm Shadow and a City Strike Duke for whoever's interested.

Also, Terminator Salvation 3 3/4" figures are now clearanced at 3$ at Wal-Mart.

Namur Wal-Mart still has Storm Shadow and Ripcord, fellas.


Also, they have the holeless variant of Cobra Commander.

Anywho, Wal-Mart Lasalle is stocked FULL of the newest Combat Heroes wave (the one with Young Snake-Eyes and Young Storm Shadow), for whose who like those figurines.

TRU Brossard doesn't seem to have the Snarler Cycle anymore.  Too bad, it would have been on sale like the rest of the Joe stuff.

Champlain Mall Sears has the movie Combat Heroes redtagged at $4 or $5, I don't remember.  One of the two, anyway!

I dropped by Funky Toys & Co (http://http://www.funkytoys.net/) the other day. They're a new toy collector store in the West Island. I got there after the store closed and was window shopping, so the owner let me in for a bit.

They had an impressive array of 25th figures going for about $14 and the silver foot locker wave of Sigma 6 for $20, but the real winner was the K-Mart exclusive RoC GI Joe versus Cobra for about $25. It's the set with desert Heavy Duty (http://http://www.yojoe.com/action/09/heavyduty12.shtml).

I know most of their prices are a bit high but if you're in the West Island, they're worth a look.

I checked out TRU and Zellers in Lasalle as well as Walmart in St-Constant this morning. Between the three they had 2 single Cover Girls and that's it. They had been completely wiped out of singles. They did have a few vehicles and lots of Combat Heroes however. Hopefully, they restock soon (Preferably with wave 5  ;D)

I didn't bother with Walmart in Lasalle after I saw the extent of the damage at TRU and Zellers. I never find anything at Walmart in Lasalle anyway  :(

However, Rossy in Lasalle still had a few wave 12 figures: Cobra Commander (w. element), 3x PP CG, 2x Ripper and Tripwire. They were 9.99$. Also Winners had a couple of MARS 3-packs at 19.99$.

but Agent Martin-Montr?al just saw them at Tigre G?ant here on the Island, and that same assortment is also 5.98$ a pop.  So here's a chance for those who missed on the Rossy special to redeem themselves  :wink:.

It wasn't Tripwire and such... and it wasn't "in the island" either  :wink:

I saw: Airborne, Eels, Para-Viper, Flint (in Cobra), Glenda, etc. in Tigre G?ant Boucherville.

5.98$ is a great deal... but no vehicles... I missed my chanche for another HISS... someone want to trade?  :-[

I guess I totally missed the fact that you're in the South Shore Martin. I know that there are two outlets on the Island: one in Ville St-Laurent and another in Montr?al-Nord. Whichever is closest, it'd be worth to have a look.

Haven't seen them at the Brossard TRU.  I thought we weren't getting them due to the tongue laws.  Have you checked/called Toy Wars to see if they have any?

Oh yeah, Happy New Year, guys!

Yeah, I was more counting on the Fairview TRU to maybe have a few, since they're in a more predominantly English area.

Last time I was at Toy Wars they just had the SRO packs in terms of TRU exclusives, that was shortly before Christmas.

Post by: SnakeEyesOnAPlane on January 05, 2010, 05:58:15 PM
Whew, the Brossard TRU is still bare.  A few Mole Pods and some generic Cobra guys left.
They DID put out some leftover 25ths, though!  Tiger Flint, a Python Officer, IG Destro, a Crimson Guard, and helmeted Cobra Commander with red element.  $10.99 each.  They're on the wall of military toys in front of the Joe wall, on the opposite end, near the end of the aisle closest to the wall with various movie toys (Terminator, etc).

Yeah, all he has is a loose Tripwire with just the laptop.


In other news, those Rip Attack vehicles are at the LaSalle Wal-Mart.
Not in the action figure aisle, but the Lego/Megabloks section perpendicular to all the other aisles, against the wall. They're very close to the backroom entrance.
16.92$ each.

Thanks Jay. I really hope that this means we'll get most of PoC when it comes out. I'm a little worried that without a big movie this year, Joes will go back to being a couple of pegs at TRU like the 25th figures were.

TRU pointe-Claire still has a decent stock of RoC figs. Nothing from waves 4 or 5, but I did snag another Pit Commando.

I was today at Anjou's TRU, and there was a ton of Wave 1 alpha vehicles and a lot of covergirls, Destros and Neo-Vipers. In other words, nothing of interest over there for anyone I believe. Figures are back at 9.99$ too. It's the first time I step into a toy store since before Christmas.

Zellers at Place Alexis-Nihon is still filled with RoC stuff.
They even have a PIT in another aisle along a dozen of the Target Rescue set.
In the main action figure aisle they have 5 other rescue sets and many Target deluxe figures.
I guess people don't want to pay $35 for the coolest Snake Eyes figure or $30 for Stormy on his bike. Maybe folks remember that we used to pay $10 for SE on the same bike back in the VvV days.

Brossard Dix30 walmart: 3 rip-attack vehicles, and new movie Combat Heroes scattered throughout the toy section (Cover Girl/Destro, Scuba Snake-Eyes/red genericobra, etc)

Yeah, Joes have been depressingly scarce since the holidays... :(

Wal-Mart Namur restocked the "Paris Pursuit" wave for some reason, so if you missed out on PP SE or SS, or want Reactive Armor Scarlett, go there.

Everywhere else, there's very little...
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread

I'll check out the Brossard TRU tomorrow.  Real depressing.  After the Christmas rush was over, not only did they not restock, but they reduced the size of the Joe section. :o
Well, they did restock one wave: the wave of 25ths with TF Flint!  All the figures of that wave were gone within a few days.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: Jay on February 02, 2010, 01:57:06 AM
Yeah.

I really wish they'd restock the later waves, like the Rex wave, the Night Adder wave and the City Strike Snake-Eyes wave. There's still stuff from these waves I want.

Instead, they restocked Collection 1 Wave 2, the Paris Pursuit wave. Ugh.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: SnakeEyesOnAPlane on February 16, 2010, 12:39:52 PM
Holy crap.  Heads-up, South Shore-based Joe fans.  Brossard TRU restocked their single-carded movie stuff.  Along with the usual Cover Girls, Destros, and Army of Two guys, there are now more Hawks, Flashes, Zartans, a black-jacket doctor, a Charbroil, a commander or two, that black cobra dog handler, Wayans in his jungle gear, and some Pit Commandos.  There are other figures there that I've forgotten to mention, and I grabbed the last Resolute Snake-Eyes.  Sorry, team.

Well folks, don't bother with TRU and Zellers in Anjou.
TRU has lots of vehicles, but only Destro and a few vipers remain. A pretty sad picture.

Zellers is filled with the Target exclusives, at $30 a figure it's not surprise.

Hey Snakes, I was today at Atwater Zellers. They had pretty much the same action figure selection minus the dog handler and plus Paris Pursuit Baroness (1 left), Cobra Eel, Elite Viper, Arctic Snake Eyes(1 left), Deep Six (1 left)and I can't remember what else. The Joes are split in two different aisles. As for the special, there was no special advertised on the shelves so you'll have to double-check I'm afraid. I didn't see any special on the vehicles either. And I didn't bother to check the flyer (sorry!).

Also, I checked all the SW figures just for fun, and I don't recall seeing any Space Suit Obiwan.

That's right, that means City Strike Snake-Eyes, Arctic Threat Storm Shadow, Night Adder, Kamakura and all their wavemates!

Brossard Walmart Dix30 has some of them Rip-Attack bikes.  They also have the movie combat heroes pack with Cover Girl and blue suit Destro for 3 bucks.  Not bad.  I might grab a few to customize.

Unrelated: does anyone know where I can find BioShock figures in the Montreal area?  I'm looking for the Bouncer Big Daddy, and I only saw 1 the South Shore Game Buzz.  I went back today and found out it sold on the weekend.  Legends has no more and says they won't be able to get more, Toy Wars doesn't carry that line, Toys on Failure has it for $70 ( ::)), and I can't seem to find it online.  Big Bad Toy Store has it on 'preorder' even though it came out in November...  I'm asking not just because I'm a gamer geek, but also because I was going to use him in a comic in which my Joes go underwater and stuff.  If anyone can help me, I'd be really grateful!  Thanks, guys!

Thanks, but don't worry about it - a buddy from Ontario's helping me out. ;D

Hey, anyone here like Combat Heroes other than me?  If so, are you looking for the cancelled Wave 3 figures?  If you are, get to the Tour de Jeux in the Eaton Centre food court.  They have 4 packs left.  I THINK that 2 of the packs are the same so you won't be able to get the entire wave, but hey, a few packs are better than none!

The day I heard about the sale, I headed out in the hopes of finding a 10$ Skysweeper, but sadly both the Angrignon and Atwater Zellers were out of it. :(


By the way, Toy Wars got in a TRU exclusive Sting Raider for those interested. And still plenty of good loose figures at competitive prices!

I know one zellers had one of each of the ones you're looking for. I saw them when the sale started, but haven't been back there since. Would you want me to pick them up for you if they are still there the next time I go? What happens if they only have one of the two...you still want it?? I know some other zellers have been cleaned out of most vehicles.

Holy ridiculous clearance, Batman!

Wal-Mart Lasalle's stocking crew sucks. A lot. That's why the toy section there has been so barren of late... apparently there are pallets full of action figures sitting in the back not being moved.
Tonight, some of it got moved. Wolverine Origins figures made it to the toy section. And since the movie is quite old by now... they're on clearance. Two dollars a figure. I just picked myself up a Movie Sabretooth and both the yellow and brown version of Wolverine... and I might just get a second Barakapool.

Brossard TRU still has no more City Strike Resolute Snake-Eyes.  Sorry, I got the last one the day he was put out on the pegs.  There are also no more Charbroils as my buddy and I got the last 2.  Sorry, guys...

Brossard Zellers has nothing worth mentioning.  There's still that sale, but it doesn't apply to their Target-exclusive packs. ::)

The Bay Downtown should pretty much just be avoided.  The only time they have anything worth noticing is at Christmas time (BEFORE January) and in the summer when they put out movie stuff.  Basically, they restock twice a year. :shifty:

I wouldn't say that.
I missed out on some of the Deluxe WO figures and they had em at a slight discount. Just couldn't decide which I wanted first, Wolvie on the motorcycle or Wolvie in the chamber thingie, so I passed em on. Might decide on one tomorrow, though.

Went to TRU Pointe-Claire looking for the Water Moccasin repaint. They didn't have it, but they had what felt like a dozen Black Adders and a bunch of Charbroils. No Kamakura, but anyone that's looking for other stuff from his wave should check it out.

Just got back from Legends.  They have the Snarler Cycle and the blue retool of the Firebat for $25 each.  They have a lot of '80s Joes in a cabinet by the cash and some older vehicles, too.  I noticed a $10 '80s VAMP.  On the wall behind the cash, there are a lot of Joe toys in boxes, including some Battlefield sets (like the mortar station), the black Cobra MOBAT, the Sears red HISS with MMS, the "Sandcrawler" mobile command outpost, and a complete Terror Drome.

I was at Walmart in St-Leonard (Carrefour Langelier) on Tuesday and I saw they had 3 Snarler Cycles and one of the blue Firebats. 19.92 each.

I was also surprised to see they had restocked on the ROC figures. I know, as I was there on Monday too and saw nothing of what I found yesterday: 1x Accelerator Delta 6 Suite Duke and 1x City Strike Snake Eyes. And the special applied, so they came to 5$ each. Check your Walmarts they might have some new stuff.

That's peculiar, because the staff at my local Wal-Mart is doing inventory, so they're not putting new stuff out till that's done.
Plenty of discounted Revenge of the Fallen Transformers, but no Joe beyond Mole Pods and Rip Attack vehicles.

My Walmart was actually doing inventory that day (pink SKU notifications cards everywhere on the pegs) as they restocked. RIP attack vehicles by the truck I forgot to mention.

I can't help but feel a bit disappointed that the Rip Attack vehicles aren't selling... because I really love them. Street-Viper is bleh (and became custom fodder) but the Snake-Eyes and the vehicles themselves are so much fun.

Brossard Walmart has no more Night Ravens, at least not in the Joe section in the action figure aisle.  BUT, they do have the POC wave.  I got Beachhead.  Man, he is pure win.  POC figures cost $7.92 plus tax!

Maybe we should change the name of this thread to the ''no-sightings'' thread. Anyway, I've been on vacation the last couple of weeks, so I've gone hunting quite a bit. Unfortunately, I don't have much to show for it. All together, I've been visiting 3 TRUs (Laval, Lasalle, Pointe-Claire), 7 Zellers (Châteauguay, Lasalle, St-Laurent, Pointe-Claire, Dorval, Laval x2), 6 Walmarts (Lasalle, St-Constant, Brossard, Laval x2, Kirkland) and 3 Winners (Lasalle, Pointe-Claire and Sources) on a pretty regular basis over the last 14 days.

- TRU still has no PoC, but the RoC figs are still 2.98 as of this morning. Night Raven is 40$ and Rip Attack are 15$
- Zellers has the mechs and the alpha vehicles, as well as a buttload of those overpriced RoC exclusives.
- Walmart is still resetting their planograms. I've seen PoC alpha vehicles, mechs and both bravos a few times. It seems most WMs have 3 pegs devoted to Joes, but no stock. I did pick up a couple of HISS tanks and have left 2 on the shelves.
- Winners has the occasional RoC fig at 4.99 or 6.99$ depending on the store and the figure and the mood of the person labeling the product (I've seen 2 Cover Girls at the same store at 2 different prices  ::))

Has anyone had better luck finding PoC singles?

Brossard TRU has (not sure if they're still there) single-carded movie Joes for $3 each.  Mainly movie-viper Army of Two guys, but they had a Resolute Snake-Eyes.

Brossard Dix-30 Walmart has the green Joe mech.

Brossard Zellers on Taschereau has the red mech and the boxed Sky Hawk With No Windows and the White-Trash Imma-Cut-You Cycle.

I dropped by Zellers last night. I found Beach Head, Duke and Snow Job. I picked up all three. Everything else was gone, so I figure someone else *cough* 5h4rK *cough* must have beat me to them  :wink:

OB

no..  :shifty: ::) ::)

For those interested, I was at the Sears Liquidation Center on Descaries today.

They have a ton of PTE playsets for cheap!

The headquarters set with the motorcycle, ATV and dirtbike plus a metric ton of accessories for either 34.99$ or 24.99$ (couldn't be sure, both prices were shown).
The desert helicopter, desert vehicles and camels plus tons of accessories set for 17.99$
And the PTE bridge & watchtower set with motorcycle, dirtbike, ATV and a giant metric ton of accessories for 17.99$ as well.

They also had notices that said "10% off all advertised prices" and you can even get an additional 15% if you have a Sears card.
So, dio makers, set builders or just general collectors... might want to hit that up and snag some swag.

Brossard TRU:
NO shelf space for Joes.  All they had on the shelf yesterday was a single "Cobra Gunship" and some Rip-Attack vehicles.  I did see the Kamakura movie wave in a cart, so those might be on the pegs soon.  Assuming they make a space for them.  All the movie-vipers are gone.  FINALLY!

Brossard Dix-30 Walmart:
POC figures are in, but no Alley-Vipers.  Vehicles: there are the cutting-blade bike, the windowless Skyhawk, the newschool HISS, and the Snow Cat.  No Fury or VAMP yet, though.

Hi, just saw some VAMP at WM In st-hyacinthe but when i wanted to pay, it wouldnt scan. And the girl didnt want to sell it to me saying that the company had a recall on those. Anybody heard something about this?

If a store tries to selling something that has a street date on it the register will tell the employee to not sell it and take the product away.  This applies more to DVDs, I have never seen it on a toy.  But that is a good sign the Wave 2 is coming soon! YEAH!

I have seen it on Episode 2, Episode 3, and a WWE case assortment before.

With the Episode 2 figures of the Star Wars ones, I had to sign a sheet guaranteeing Lucasfilm, Hasbro, etc that it would not be sold until the release date.

I had them about a week before the release date. Once Walmart put them out (3 days before that date), I put mine out.

Street date on non-movie products?
Never heard of that. I knew that the Indiana Jones figures had a big release date on the case, but regular toys?
OI!

Sounds to me like it's just a laze issue.  She'd didn't want to have to do the work involved to get it to scan/find the price so she just made something up about a recall.

Next time, skip the cashier and go line up with your product in hand at the customer's service counter, they should be able to give you a price. The manager will usually sign off on a price if the item is indeed for sale.

I don't think so,  she talked on the phone, somebody else came and couldn't find the price in the system either, just a message saying that the cie wanted the products to be returned to them and remove from the tablet.

Wow. Really? That is so strange. It makes more sense now that you outlined the details of it. If the company made a recall, then it's possible that is was a bad batch that Walmart received. It could be anything at this point, and I'm sure this will not prevent or affect further POC product from coming here.

Ok guys, a little update. I went back this evening, samething, I was pissed... The vamp was still on the tablet. I went back with the box and with the tag that was on the front Of the tablet, guess what? The lady at the cash sent me back to the toy section to speak to the toy manager And she gave me a price tag printed from her scanner. Long story short, i now am the owner Of a POC vamp w/double clutch

Happy ending

So much for the recall crap  ;D And good for you! Sometimes it's worth to try at least a second time. Maybe the first time you just went on a day that everyone just too busy (or lazy) to get to the end of the matter and get you a price, and you simply got unlucky.

Walmart St-Leonard had a few POC's : they had the Mechs, a Snowcat and a Hiss. Didn't see the VAMP. Figurewise: 2x Dukes and 2x Storm Shadows.

And for once, I found one shortpacked Cobra Commander which I picked up. Finally, got one. Beeing a chrome fan, this obviously made my day.

Went by Zellers Atwater today. They're moving a lot of stuff around the toy aisle so everything is a mess, but they did have both mechs and two Storm Rider and his bike of doom.

TRU in Lasalle has restocked RoC figures. They seem to be the wave 5 cases. They include City Strike Snake Eyes and Duke, Arctic Threat Storm Shadow, Desert Viper and Jungle Ripcord. Still 2.98$ I picked up a few for myself and grabbed a half dozen random Snake Eyes (I left the CS SE ) and Storm Shadows to donate to Christmas baskets for the holidays.

Really? How weird.

I'll have to go check. Might finally break down and get CS SE.

Wish I could find the new CC somewhere, as well.

Just got back from Wal-Mart St-Constant. They had PoC wave 2. Picked up Zartan, Destro and Recondo. I left Dusty (x2), Jungle Viper and Twirly Ballerina Snake Eyes. They also had remnants of wave 1 and I finally snagged an Alley-Viper!

On Wednesday, Legends had POC Wave 1 figures for $9.99 each and they told me that the POC Wave 2 was supposed to come in on Thursday.  Not sure if it did or not; I haven't been back there yet.  They had some of the movie Alpha vehicles, too.

I went back to St-Leonard's Walmart today and was surprised. Figurewise they had restocked and had about 20 POC in total: several Storm Shadows, Dukes, Beach heads, Snake Eyes....and only one Alley Viper which I picked up.

They also restocked on the wave 1 vintage style Star Wars and I picked up Dack and Boba Fett, which were also the only ones they had. They had all the wave...until I bought the ones I was missing.

Okay, I just got back from the Brossard TRU.  The only Joe figures they had were some movie leftovers for about $2.50 each.  They're in a bin near the Lego section.  There's a Resolute Snake-Eyes there too, if anyone wants him.

I don't remember them all off the top of my head, but here's what I remember:

- Desert Wayans brother
- Wayans brother in Sigma 6 armour suit
- Resolute Snake-Eyes
- a few different Storm Shadows
- at least 1 Hauser, don't remember specifically which one
- wave one Snake-Eyes

Let me know if there are any you want and I'll grab them for ya!  I can hit up the TRU on Tuesday after my archaeology lab and get the ones you want, assuming they're still there. :P I'll probably go to the ToyCon, so I can pass them to you then if you'll be there.  Are you going to this month's ToyCon?

Thanks Snakes, I'm looking specifically for Reactive armor Scarlett, Shipwreck, Charbroil, and why not a TRU Shipwreck and Doc. I didn't shop for these guys when most of you were so I don't even know if they were available in Quebec to tell you the truth. Like they weren't. I have to ask Mr. Dodge822 first if he managed to get me some from his area. He's going to be coming to the Mtl Toy Con so that's good news for me. I'll keep U posted, thanks again!

I know that I've seen the TRU DOC figure at Toy Wars (sorry TW) and didn't pick it up. Still not going to pick it up. This is not a figure I'd be willing to pay more than retail. So if it doesn't get here, too bad for me I guess.

As for reactive armored scarlett if you do see one, please do pick it up for me, thanks Snake!

I know what you mean.  Hell, that figure looks so dreadful, I wouldn't even pay retail for it.  But if he was on sale, maybe I'd grab him in put him in my comic, with a joke about his bad fashion sense or something.  I don't know.

Don't worry, I'll grab you a Catsuit Scarlett if they have any left!

Curse me metal body, I wasn't fast enough.  The Joes moved, LJ22...  All that were left were a Snow-Pants Viper (aka Rave Viper), a maskless Storm Shadow, and Krang from TMNT with "cobra commander" on his packaging.  I picked up the Storm Shadow for a Larry Hama custom.

Sorry, man, I can't help you...

Hey, I was at the Lasalle Zellers today and they have those Marvel Universe 2-packs for 12.99$ a pop! (that's 3$ more than what a lone single figure costs!).
Wolverine vs Black Hand Ninja, Spider-Man vs Green Goblin, Old School Iron Man vs Caped Black Panther and New Iron Man vs Bandanna Punisher.

Not much else than that to report in the Angrignon are at this time...

Count me in as one of those that can't make it as well.

I'm still recovering from surgery and there's no way I can handle the long trip there.
(I can barely handle a trip to my local Wal-Mart)

You sound rather in good shape for someone who could barely handle a trip to his local Walmart... ;D or to the Toycon  >:(

Well, there's a difference between a long trip out to St-Laurent in crowded public transit and a brief trip to a store that's within walking distance of home. (Plus the Zellers isn't exactly far away from the Walmart, and it's the first day I made it that far)

Anjou report.
TRU still has a few RoC figures @ 3$ each. THey had some Desert Vipers, some Ice Vipers, Urban Duke and a few more from the early waves.

Zellers had a complete set of PoC wave 1 minus the Alley Viper. They still had the red CC and a Firefly for those who were looking for them.

They also have a nice little sale on Transformers.

Seriously if you had a surgery and still have pain when you walk, that's a sign to stay home and take some rest. It is not worth to sacrifice your full recovery just to go out for the thrill of the Joe hunt. Your health might take a hit, especially if you don't recover well, and you won't know it until many years from now.

No, no. This isn't a "Ow it hurts to walk and I can barely handle the pain for that trip", it's more of a "I'm fine to go out but if I get TOO active it starts to hurt a little, I need to get back to resting up". The trip to Zellers was a calculated risk but I figured at least it's in a mall with lots of sofas so if it starts to hurt I can sit down till I feel better, and then go straight back home.

Plus, a trip out to St-Laurent requires public transit and since the surgery I've been feeling a little bit of motion sickness when I'm in cars... so shaky subway trains and crowded buses are kind of out of the question.

- Hauser with blue pants and a sword (  ??? )
- "Cookies & Cream" Stormshadow
- Wave 1 Stormshadow
- Unmasked Stormshadow (Paris version, I think)
- "Cobra Commander"
- Ice-Viper
- Desert-Viper
- Wave 1 Snake-Eyes
- Paris Snake-Eyes

Wow. Sorry Redmao, but the 2008 Universe line has pretty much cleared shelves aside from a few Silverbolts at some Zellers. Acid Storm is sadly long gone, which is sadly to be expected from a two-year old toy these days.
([old man voice]I remember back in the mid-90s I could still walk into a store and find an X-Men figure originally released two years prior. Or an older Beast Wars figure. Stupid things today changing.[/old man voice])

Has anyone checked a Rossy out recently? I was at the one near my house yesterday and lo and behold, they had the first wave of POC figures.
Although unlike Wal-Mart and Zellers, theirs still had the 9.99$ price tag.

Still, since they had the entire first wave, I personally didn't mind paying that price for a second Alley-Viper. :D

Started doing some early Christmas shopping today. I walked into Giant Tiger. They have RoC figures at 6.97$. Nothing groundbreaking -a mix of SEs, SSs, PP Baroness, Desert Duke, Dr Rex. I picked up an Arctic Snake Eyes and a couple of Para-Vipers.

Wave 3 is here! Wave 3 is here!

Went to Zellers this morning and stopped by the action figure aisle. The 3 Joe pegs were full with wave 2. However, there were two employees emptying some toy pallets. I spied a case of Joe wave 3 on one of the pallets. One of the nice lady employees was nice enough to open the case and let me take what I wanted from it. I left with 2 Shock Troopers and a Snake Eyes. Oddly enough, the case had already been opened and 2 SEs and a ST were already gone. (Probably an employee)

I've given up on TRU when searching for joes...they barely have any other toyline on the shelves unless it's transformers, star wars and lego.

At least if you were in any other province in Canada, there would be more selection of toys...well slightly. With the French laws, we don't get toys with English only packaging, which is why we almost never see any TRU exclusives here. The freakin' site won't even ship to Quebec if the packaging is in English.

What annoys me more is looking at the packaging after having jumped through hoops to get the toy.  It says right on the box/card "Longueuil, QC."  I live in Brossard, two towns away from Longueuil.  If I decide to go cycling or ride a single bus, I'm in Longueuil.  I went to roughly the Longueuil city limits daily in high school and Cegep.  My girlfriend lives in Longueuil.  Yet, if I want to get a figure that was made there, I have to order it online and have it shipped from Texas. ::)

I also saw a Recondo, a CC (the chase figure  ::)), an AV, a Firefly, some Beachheads, a lot of different SE and SS.. a lot of Dukes too (wv 1 and 3) but no Dusty or Jungle Viper.. for those of you interested, I think the most popular figure in my neck of the woods is 'proly that SS with the tornado kick??? and I don't know why?

Went on a mini-hunt last night. I hit a Zellers, a couple of TRUs and two Walmarts. Pretty much every store had a lot of nothing. I saw a few wave 1 and 2 figs, a few Alphas and that's it. TRU in Lasalle had no Joes and the TF section was bare pegs. I haven't seen a Joe at Walmart since before Christmas. Is WM even still carrying Joes?

Well, it had to happen eventually. The Target/Zellers exclusive deluxe figures have been reduced in price from 29.99 to 22.49 - 50%. Price before taxes 11.24$. I was almost tempted to pick a couple of Strato-Vipers with Jetpacks, but decided that I'm done with RoC. We've been paying 3-5$ for RoC figures for the last year, so 13$ is too expensive for a repaint and a craptastic mini-vehicle, IMO.

For anyone that was waiting for a lower price, have at them!

Hey, the Metro Video under the Theatre Formerly Known As The Paramount downtown has some Joe stuff, including the boxed Fury (Rage?  Don't remember the name) and the VAMP, for $50 each.  There are also the 25th SHARC and Firebat boxes, and a PoC AWE Striker in black, but I don't remember the prices.

Yeah, but if they visited a toy aisle or two, they woudln't find Firebats, SHARCs, VAMPs, Hall of Heroes, or boxed sets.  I've seen stuff like Resolute box sets and the Cobra Island packs there.  I don't know if they're STILL there, mind you, and even if they are, they'd be overpriced.

I went back this morning after seeing your post. The Zellers staff is re-doing the entire toy section. The Twilight figures were moved out of the action figure aisle. Luckily, I scoured the entire section and found the Shockies hanging on a peg three aisles further down.

All's well that ends well.  ;D

On the pegs were Tornado Kick Storm Shadow (at least 1), 2 Ninja Commando Snake-Eyes (w/both heads and metric crap-tonne of gear), 2 Aliens marine guy with Pulse Rifle and rocket pack, and 2 Cobra Shock Troopers.  They're on the wall near the Tron stuff, over the Halo Warthogs.  $9.99 each.

Saw wave 4 yesterday (Saint-Constant Wal-Mart)! There's only a Skydive remaining though... but, a Shock Trooper AND an Alley Viper are now hidden behind a Smurfette doll in the same aisle as the Joe toys! The hunt is on! ;D Good luck!

Snagged the ST, but the AV eluded my capture. No matter, 5h4rk, thank you for your help sir  ;D Picked up another ST at Walmart Dix30 too.

Brossard TRU: in the military toys aisle, there is a tiny basket thing with 4 POC figures in it: 1 samurai Storm Shadow and 3 of the Aliens-reference Hauser with the Pulse Rifle.

The Rip Attack vehicles are on a Liquidation table near the checkout counters.  They're marked down to $4 each.

Those 4 figures are still there.  No Rip Attack stuff is left.  No other Joe stuff is present.
Nothing Joe-related at the Brossard Sears (Champlain Mall).  Brossard Zellers still has their POC Wave 1 and 2, but nothing newer.  No Wave 3 figures, no VAMP.

With the Montreal Comic Con on Sunday, May 1st, at Place Bonaventure, we might have a chance to get our hands on some new Joe stuff.  See ya there!

Can I make a suggestion? Start a NEW Quebec sightings thread for 2011. Then, when 2012 rolls around, start a new one for that year.

I commend you guys on posting so often in this thread, but it might be a tad scary for a newbie showing up on the board.  :lol:

Yes, Wave 3 is the cancelled Wave that you pretty much can't find in stores.  Tour De Jeux in the Eaton Centre (food court level) has them, too, but that's a specialty store, so I'm assuming they cost more than the Jean Coutu.

yup, only released on Canada. However, they were available in abundance. I wouldn't call them rare, as I do still come across these things from time to time in all sorts of different places.  After TRU, they ended up at all kinds of places like Jean Coutu during the holidays, and weird outlets where they remained forever. I'm not a big fan of the combat heroes or any other line in this size, but I snagged the complete set for $13.98, $3,49 a piece some time ago. For that price I couldn't turn them down.

News from the Eastern front.

TRU Anjou has about 6 PoC wave 3 Snake Eyes and 2 Missile launching Duke figures.

Zellers Anjou has a mixed bunch of wave 2, 3 and 4 figures. They even have 2 Shock Troopers left on the pegs along more cool commando Snake Eyes. I mean what's wrong with today's kids for leaving such a cool figures on the pegs?!

Wally Langelier has a single, lonely Duke surrounded by SW left-overs.

The 3 stores also have the TF3, Green Lantern, Thor and Captain America movie figures. Zellers still had a Red Skull available.

This was Redmao reporting from the Eastern Front.

Went to Zellers Atwater today and to my surprise the Captain America display had been picked clean.
Well almost. They had a few Captain Britain, US Agent and a few deluxe figures left.
Are the kids really into Captain America or is there a bunch of collectors in that area?

Joe wise they have PoC Super Snake Eyes and desert fun Stormy.

Zellers Anjou.
No more Captain America wave 1 figures.
Arctic Cap, Captain Britain, Captain Bucky and US Agents along some vehicles are still available.
Maybe stores only ordered a little quantity of the first wave...

Joe-wise, nothing new.

Triple post eh?
Been around town yesterday and found some of the latest Joes at Captain Quebec on Ste-Catherine at $11 each.

This was Redmao on peg patrol.

TRU Anjou sold out its Snake Eyes, but they still have 2 Dukes on the pegs and some Rip Attack vehicles.
Zellers has a few Dukes, 2 Beachheads, 1 Commando Snake Eyes and one Desert Fun Stormy, perfect for the beach.
Seems like the Armor Cycle and friends didn't make it to Anjou yet.

I had to check my eyes to make sure I wasn't seeing double quadruple a lot.

The Brossard TRU on the South Shore of Montreal (easily accessible by taking the metro to Bonaventure, going up the stairs and taking the RTL 45) has a bunch of the figures from the Hawk, Cobra Trooper, Cobra Commander, Blowtorch, Jungle BAT, Steel Brigade etc wave (am I missing any?  I think I've listed them all...)  They're hanging on the pegs in the military toy aisle (the one next to the Star Wars/Transformers aisle) and also in a bin in the middle of the hallway nearby.

Dig in!

Also, there's a shop in Super Mercado on Taschereau that sells figures, including Joes.  Single-carded 25ths for $12, some ARAH stuff in a cabinet including the VAMP Mark II, the Stinger, an ASP, a HISS, and more.

Toys R Us have their nice buy one get another one for a dollar sale on GIJoe.
TRU Anjou is no exception, except that they barely have any Joe figures end they're hidden behind a sheet of paper.
The single peg had 2 Jungle Bats, 2 Hawks, 2 Cobra Commanders and a few Nerf Duke.

On other news they did have a Red Skull left and they received the Thundercats 8" classic figures. No space for the 6" or 4" yet, but the store looks like it's getting ready for the new season.

After tax, $26.19 at Zellers.  Found this and the HISS Scout at the Brossard Zellers on Taschereau (near the Panama terminus), but only one of each.  The Scout is still there if you need it.

Brossard TRU has the wave with Blowtorch, Hawk, Cobra Commander, the jungle BAT, the Cobra Trooper, the Steel Brigade guy, and maybe another one I've forgotten.  They're on the wall with other figures (superheroes, movies, etc), where the Halo stuff used to be, next to the Thundercats.  $10 each.

Excuse the double-post, fellas.

Walmart Dix30 (Brossard):
Absolutely no Joes.  Anywhere.  No single cards, no vehicles, no movie leftovers.

Winners Dix30 (Brossard):
They have the POC Snow Cat and newschool HISS Tank for $15 each.

Zellers Place Longueuil (Longueuil):
Single-carded Blowtorch, Cobra Trooper, Jungle BAT, etc wave.  No Hawks.  A Pilot Scarlett is left if you want her.  They're $10 each.
Some small vehicles, including that snowmobile-esque one with the claws in the front.
Some POC mechs remain.
12" "real heroes," including radio trooper, machine gunner, firefighter, etc.

Get yourself some joy with a Techno Viper, a Scarlet or even a Ripcord. Plenty of Renegades Troopers available too.

Went by TRU Anjou this week and they refilled the pegs with a new batch of Blowtorch, Steel Brigade, Cobra Commander, Hawk, Bats and Cobra Trooper. Who knew we"d have Troopers warming the pegs. Is army building a thing of the past?

It feels like Canada will have to go through the overstock of PoC before reaching the 30th anniversary.

I know, I never thought that the Cobra Trooper would be so plentiful. I'm up close to 70 of them now as well as 30+ Steel Brigades, 10 Hawks and 10 BATs. I really hope we get some PoC wave 6 or 30th stuff before the movie hits, but my gut is telling me that we won't see anything new before then.

Brossard Zellers had no POC figures, just the HISS Scout (maybe a Cycle Armour behind it; I noticed another box but I didn't check it out) and some Skystrikers.  The liquidation aisle still has those still-overpriced figure-and-tiny-vehicle sets and that boxed set from that movie line.  Some kind of rescue, I think.

Crazy how stuff ends up in the us vs canada.  I haven't seen blowtorch/jungle bat down here, but really all the waves (except arctic destro) seems to sell out quick.  Now either seeing zero joes or the renegades duke/cobra commander/firefly.  I never saw shadow tracker, money bags destro, general hawk, lowlight etc.  If you guys get in the renegades storm shadow he is selling for like 40 bucks on ebay (I hadn't seen that one either).  Didin't see airtight/sci-fi/law/lifeline either.  I did see one techno viper, one ren scarlett, and one zombie viper.  Maybe you guys will get flooded with the good stuff!

Yeah, I'm looking for that Storm Shadow as well. I don't understand Hasbro. How do they determine production runs? If the renegades Storm Shadow has low production runs in the US and none in Canada, where is it? He's a main character and they usually make boat loads of the main characters.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread
Post by: Redmao on January 20, 2012, 11:59:33 AM
After flooding the pegs with Desert princess Stormy, they make the ultimate Storm Shadow rare?
Somebody's smoking at Hasbro.
Figures are pack 12 per case, so they should simply pack 2 of each, but instead they repacked Ripcord and only put one Storm Shadow per case.
Title: Re: Quebec Sightings Thread

I bet (eventually) storm shadow will show up at ross or tj maxx or ollies.  I only saw kamakura down here at tj maxx and such (fortunately I had already scored one at the canjoecon for 5 bucks!).  I'm thinking the same thing about the lowlight wave.  I hope so anyways.  But who knows, maybe we'll get some in before the movie line starts.

It's not too surprising. I mean joes have been $9.99 at TRU and Zellers for ages, and WalMart has finally caught up with pricing. I'm guessing $10.99 moving forward at TRU and Zellers.

Many toylines have seen hikes in pricing. Prices are not coming down. This is the trend I've noticed.

Prices of action figures continue to rise to a point where parents no longer want to drop down the cash for these type of items unless its for Christmas or a birthday. Videogames are a better option in terms of longeivity. It's hard to buy an action figure that a kid will lose interest in a week or two.

And that's why I have a bathtub full of Captain America figures. They were $2 each at Walmart and hard for a 5 year old boy to break, plus no metal parts.  ;)

This sort of reminds me of when comic prices kept on going up and up to the point it was no longer a viable option. I could see spending 75 cents on a comic book, but not $3 - $4. It just because unreasonable and that is one of the reasons I stopped buying comics. Will the same thing happen to action figures?

The thing is, there were other reasons as to why we stopped buying comics back then.  Crap like OMG COLLECTOR'S ISSUE #1!!!, multiple covers, bags and collector cards, '90s EXTREEEEME-ness, pouches on pouches and guns on guns, story/art, etc.

I've pretty much stopped buying Transformers figures not just because of cost but issues like distribution (or lack thereof), moviecrap dominating the pegs, designs I'm not fond of, and other stuff.  Price is one reason, but it's not the only reason, know what I mean?

Snakes, those are exactly most of the reasons why I stopped collecting them, but add to that the flood of mainstream artist clones. The other reason I stopped was because of the excess of stories becoming more and more invaded with crossovers that I didn't care much about.

Yeah, tell me about it.  My favourite comic book character is Death's Head, yes?  His '90s "reimagining" started with them literally killing the character off, shortly followed by an X-Men crossover with multiple covers.

As for Joe sightings, the Brossard TRU still has those Hawks, Cobra Commanders, and the rest of their wavemates.  $10 each, I think.  They don't seem to be moving.  Also, no vehicles.

Ah, good ol' Death Head. He was an odd character but i really liked him. I seem to recall a story in the future where he became a major player and was helping the last of the earths heroes fight off some super bad dude. Rhino was one of the Avengers and in love with She Hulk or something like that. I still have that story arc somewhere in the attic. Maybe when my son is a bit older I'll haul all those comics out. I'll start him off with all the Rob Liefeld crap I bought so that if he rips a page I won't be upset.  ;)

I swear, I'd take 50 cents on a dollar if I could find a buyer for all that stuff...

Just for giggles:

I'm a massive Death's Head fan, so if you're serious about selling your stuff, let me know what you have and I'll let you know if you have anything I'm lookin' for.  I despise the Death's Head II generation (Death's Head v3.0 was strange, but at least somewhat decent), but being a fanboy, I'm compelled to try to collect all of his appearances, especially since I find plenty of 'em in dollar bins.

I know I'm going off-topic here, but apparently, Marvel Universe is considering making a Death's Head figure in 2013 (no mention of which appearance, yet), which means I can retire my half-assed custom, yes?

Bric à Brac on Ontario street restocked their Joe pegs.
Sadly it's the same stuff we're stuck with at TRU and the other big stores. Blowtorch, Hawk and the gang.
Great deals on Playmobil though, so if you're into smiling characters, it's the place to go.  ;D

1 000 000 Comics and Captain Quebec have various Renegades and 30th figures available.
Last time I went there and it's confirmed on their website, Legends has pretty much all the recent figures available too.
Funny how the comic stores around town have better assortments of GIJoe figures than the big chains.

Redmao reporting again from his toy patrol.
Zellers has a Buy one get another one 1/2 price on all their Marvel and SW figures which includes the latest Avengers figures. At $12.99 a figure, it feels a bit better on the wallet.

Zellers Atwater has two different Captain America, one of which looks like a repaint from a Cap movie figure, Thor, Iron Man and Hawk eyes which looks pretty cool.
They also have a few villains available in the Spider-Man line like the Shocker, Scorpion and le Lizard.
They still have lots of Iron Man, Thor and Caps from they own movie lines too, but at this point who really cares, right?

On the Joe front, Blowtorch and a few Cobra Commanders were occupying a peg. The Armor Cycle and Skystriker were also available.

Meanwhile Captain Quebec still has a few 30th and Renegades GIJoe figures available for $10.99 each and they have a few Avengers figures for $14.99.

Economics 101. Human wants vs material resources. Perhaps you were asking too much and while he was interested in buying a set the cost was too great. If you don't mind me asking, what did you pay for them vs what was your asking price?

Personally I got my Funskool fix covered years ago from Smalljoes when vehicles like were dirt cheap, like between $10 - $15 a piece. I even bought a few of those "Super Cop" action sets that had the Vamp, Silver Mirage cycle, Fang Helicopter and Sgt Slaughter looking cop for something like $20 a set or something really cheap. I can't recall the price. He also had Funskool Skystrikers for a good price. I still have mine mint in a sealed box.

That orange guy shouldn't be impossible to find. He's part of a boxed set that was available in Canada. I have that boxed set still sealed. It's a fun looking set.

The black fighter pilot on the other hand would be hard to find. I've never seen one before.

That set is indeed pretty cool. It also had the astronaut and his capsule which were not available separately like the other 4 figures.

The next guy then comes and picks out all the remaining red ninjas and joe troopers and nothing else...He can be a collector or a scalper...but it is what it is.

As I said in a similar thread, I think everyone just needs to calm down instead of going bananas rushing to stores trying to find these. Most stores have just begun to put out the figures. These figures will get re-released next spring if you don't get them this time around. I can't see Hasbro skipping this wave next time around and starting with wave 2. I think it's just the must have now mentality, but I won't blame anyone.

We really don't know to what extent the quantities of joe product that is out there. Even though there is supposedly no restock, does not mean the retailers don't alread have large quantities. I think it's more of an no reorder once supply is spent.

That being said, it's tough being a collector. You're constantly fighting with other collectors who might also be armybuliders to get the items you want, and with scalpers trying to cash in. There's the panic that there might not be any new joe items until next year and there might not be any restock...so people clean them out.

Generally stores only put out a case of items at a time and if you're not there a the right time, you miss out. So, it's tough, but that is the life.

Brossard TRU has movie stuff.

Single-carded figures at $10.99 (underequipped/articulated and overpriced :-\)
Hauser with rocket launcher, Roadblock, Snake-Eyes, Joe guy with a Halo-esque helmet, Cobra Commander, Cobra Trooper, Zartan, Storm Shadow, and a Red Ninja.

Only $16.99 vehicle is the swamp boat.

The larger vehicles (I think they were $21) are the Ghost Hawk Mark II and the newschool HISS Tank.

There are two sets of figure 3-packs, one with Kamakura, Night Ops Roadblock and sweet-looking Beachhead, another with Snake-Eyes, Storm Shadow, and a Red Ninja.

There were also a few roleplay items like a Snake-Eyes disguise kit (Zartan, eat your heart out) and a missile-launching sidearm whose grip becomes the handle of a bayonet.

There were two rider-on-bike vehicles, but I chose to ignore them.

Tru Anjou still has plenty of everything.
The figures are not with the regular non-movie Joe figures. They're at the end cap and in a basket mixed with some Spidey figures in the middle of the passage way.
They have all the vehicles and they had the three packs , but those were with the non-movie figures with a Hiss and a single Ghosthawk. The rest of the vehicles were with the Retaliation toys. I almost missed them since there's also some Power Rangers toys with them.

I got a Red Ninja, a second Storm Shadow, Zartan and Snake Eyes on the bike.
I'm planning on giving Zartan's scabbard to the single carded Snake I already have.

TRU Lasalle is a pitiful sight. As far as Ret toys are concerned, it has RBs, SE, and SS and a few vehicles. No other singles or 3-packs. TRU St-Bruno had some stock this morning. I saw some Red Ninjas and Cobra Troopers (about 4 of each) as well as lots of 3-packs and vehicles.

Walmart seems to have started putting out some Ret stuff as well. Found a Joe Trooper and a Cobra Commander there (Walmart Brossard). No variants though. CC is black and Trooper is tan cape version. Our last hope for the blue variants seem to be Zellers. I hate to pin my hopes on that chain of stores. By the time they put out figures, they'll probably charge 14.99$ for them.

The current sale is probably thinning out the variety.
People must be getting extra troopers, cobras and red ninja which might explain why there's only Storm Shadow, Snake Eyes and Roadblock on the pegs since there's two of each in a box.

I hope everyone grabbed what they wamted from TRU, because they've raised prices on almost all Retaliation product:

Single figures are 11.99$ - up from 10.99$
Deltas (HISS and GH II) are 24.99$ - up from 21.99$
3-Packs are 32.99$ - up from 29.99$
Alphas and Bravos are still the same prices - 14.99$ and 16.99$ respectively.

Maybe they're trying to make sure they keep product on the shelves or longer? Or they saw crazy sales from the first three weeks and are trying to cash in?

This is a weird move.
First they have a big sale only a week after they get the products on the shelves and now they raise the price on the left overs? Did they get more or do they expect to sale their extra RB, SE and SS at a higher price?

25% off sale seems to be popular because there's not much choice left at TRU Anjou.
Plenty of RB, SE and SS and some Dukes, CC and a single Zartan.
The PoC figures were also part of the sale so I got some Steel Brigade figures.

Stupid Zellers (I know it's an oxymoron). Anyway, they finally put out some Retaliation product. First, they had cases of wave 2 singles that they refused to sell only to remove them from the floor. Second, they stock those damn bikes at charges 26.99$ for them. TRU is charging 12.99$ for these. The only good thing they did was put out the Delta vehicles (Ghost Hawk II and HISS) and priced them at 19.99$, compared to TRU's 24.99$ So vehicles at Zellers are priced like this:

- Ret alphas (SE and Firefly Bikes) - 26.99$
- PoC alphas (HISS Scout and Ashiko's Bike) - 22.99$
- PoC Bravos (VAMP, Helicopter) - 24.99$
- Ret Deltas (Ghost Hawk II and HISS) - 19.99$

If anybody can figure out Zellers pricing, please post it here. I'm sure I'm not the only one that is confused. No wonder they've gone under. Sheesh.

Don't make the mistake I did.  Brossard's Dix-30 Walmart isn't worth checking out.  I didn't find a single Joe item: figures, vehicles, roleplay, you name it.  Nothing.  Guess they moved fast, eh?

The only Joe figure left at the Brossard Zellers on Taschereau is a Renegades Cobra Commander, but he's on sale.  Hell, all the toys are 20%.  They have stuff like the movie vehicles, too.  And the Cycle Armour if you enjoy mediocrity.  They have the Ghost Hawk Mark II for $15.  I might have to pick one up for customizing.

TRU Anjou has the new 3-packs, Kre-Os, what seems to be new role-play items, but they still have lots of the wave 1 figures.
They even put a small island in the middle of the isle with even more  of the same wave 1 figures.

Looks like they want to go through their overstock of SE, SS, RB and Duke before they put wave 2 on the pegs.

I hope that next week's movie release will change the situation.

I picked up Wave 2 Roadblock and Snake Eyes at Wal-Mart this week. They are pretty solid figures with good articulation. Snake Eyes is a little skinny, but has some nice sculpted detail. I left Storm Shadow, Flint and Firefly. No troop builders, crappy articulation figures (Flint and Firefly) and the fact that much better versions of all these characters make this the weakest of the 5 Retaliation waves in my opinion.

I'm looking forward to wave 2.5. I already picked up most of it during a roadtrip to the States, but I would love to find a couple more Dark Ninjas, Alley Vipers and Joe Coltons (for customs). LJ is also pretty decent. Tron Ninja is a definite pass though.

If you're interested, I reviewed the ninja battle, Checkpoint, VAMP, and Platform sets on my blog (http://ages25andup.blogspot.ca/2013/03/gi-joe-kre-o-rundown-roundup-review.html).  I like what I see so far.

None at TRU St-Bruno, eh?  I guess I'll have to pay the Angrignon one a visit some time and see if they have 'em.

According to another toy forum, the codes are stamped somewhere on the bags and are a string of numbers.  The last two digits are the tells; they reveal with Kreon is inside.  So, I'll list the figures in order of their bags' last two digits:

-75 Alley Viper
-76 Ninja Viper
-77 Cobra Trooper
-78 Crimson Guard
-79 Dice
-80 Jinx
-81 Kamakura
-82 Quick Kick
-83 Rock N Roll
-84 Scarlett
-85 AT Commander, with Life-Like Hair and paradox accessory
-86 Torpedo

I can't confirm any of this myself, never having found them, but photos online seem to indicate that this information is accurate.  Good hunting!

I don't understand the complaint about Flint's level of articulation.
The single hinged knees are solid and can bend a full 90 degrees and his wrists can swivel.
It still a better figure than what hasbro is producing their Marvel movie lines.

I think he's an okay figure for most purposes. He's got a base-line amount of articulation for display on a stand or crewing a vehicle.
In fact, I'd say that the POAs the figure has would be adequate for vehicle drivers--and I was a LOUD opponent of the "Happy Meal" drivers.

No Kre-I Joe blindbags at the St.-Bruno TRU, and the Brossard TRU still has the box of leftovers.  So if you need a Kamakura, dig in.

I can't believe TRU St-Bruno still have nothing...

I was there with a friend.  We had to do the tour of the store about 3 times before even finding the tiny Joe section.  It's on a single endcap, NOT facing a main aisle.  Blink and you'll miss it!

That's the one.

Jay, there was one at TRU Pointe-Claire a couple of weeks ago. I don't know if it still there. I picked one up at TRU Brossard during one of the 25% off sales (came to about 18$). It's not a bad vehicle. I'm not sure how to use it yet.

Just got back from TRU Brossard and Bruno.  Each of them only has a single Kre. I. Joe blindbag.  At Brossard, Quick Kick.  At Bruno, Kamakura.

Brossard has none of the ninjafied HumVAMPs, but there are two left at Bruno.  I grabbed one and I'm going to have to repaint it into a Jurassic Park tour car, or something.

Brossard TRU got some new Joe figures!  I saw Ultimate Storm Shadow, that new The Rock with the vest, some movie Flint with a parachute or something, and there were probably more.  I didn't really take a good look as I was in a hurry.

I Just thought I'd let you know that I saw Gi joe Retaliation on dvd selling for 10 bucks at Maxi & Cie (Pie-IX and Jean-Talon). I didn't buy it of course, but there's at least 5 of them left for those that are interested.

The TRU in Brossard has a little tiny Joe section near all the Marvel stuff.  The boxed 3-packs of movie figures are on liquidation, but singles are still full-price.
