Nothing in the Superstore on the south end of Oshawa as of yesterday.  But I found them at the Whitby TRU.

Where in that vast morass of a toy aisle was it? Near the Transformers?

When I first got there it was just thrown on the shelf over where with all the Bakagon (or whatever they are) stuff, looked like a return or something.  Anyways, I set it up nicely over beside the Transformers where people would see it.

That confirms a suspicion that I had. I think that they were out and then got pulled and that was just something that someone hid from the assortment before they pulled it.

Notice where there was a bit of a hole around where the remaining combat heroes were that were just stuff moved from other pegs. I think that that's where they were.

Is the H cracking down, or is this all a birdbrained conspiracy theory?  :shifty:

I had a hunch coming back to W-M after the holiday would be fruitful and I guess it was sort of. Argyle W-M in London had one case out, the boring Duke/Scarlett/Snake Eyes asst. I bought Worst Ever Cobra Commander and an Ice Viper but left the rest. Hasbro will have to a lot better than that if they want me to buy more Storm Shadows and Dukes. The Snake Eyes was sold, and I *might* have grabbed him, but he's also very over-represented in my 25th collection much like SS so I dunno. The only way I would buy more SS and SE without hesitation is if they put out 25th style LRRP versions.

TRU Kitchener had a single case of wave 1 singles out this afternoon.  $9.99 each.  I was surprised to see Toys'R'Us break the street date. 



Assortment:
2x Duke (Desert Ambush)
2 x Snake Eyes (Ninja Commando)
2x Storm Shadow (Ninja Mercenary)
2x Baroness (Attack on GI Joe Pit)
2x Destro (Weapons Supplier)
2x Neo Viper (Attack on GI Joe Pit)


St. Catharines TRU had the same assortment including ALL of the vehicles, 6" and 12" figures alone on their own display.

For the online shoppers out there, Toysrus.ca has a number of single figures available for order.

Scratch Destro from that list.

Speaking of Destro, any else read his file card. What a pile of crap. His face was burned and he uses nano tech to repair his flesh but the side effect is it leaves his face silver (or something like that, cards not in front of me right now).

What's next, Spider man's web shooters will be built into his body?   Oh yeah.....
