Sigma Six at Toys R Us in Toronto
« on: February 27, 2006, 10:59:01 AM »

Saw them yesterday at Sherway.   I checked the price with the electronic price checker and it wasn't listed yet.  They had a lot - Wave 1.  I didn't ask anyone as I didn't have the time.

The've been sighted in Hamilton TRU. $19.99 at the scanner. In typical Hasbro promotional style, they are placed face down on the bottom shelf for the far corner of the action figure row with only the ends of the plastic containers showing.

My 1 1/2 year old found them, but I'd never of seen them myself.  :?

Dude says that the box just showed up, but more was coming. It was all wave 1 stuff.

I thought we needed to have the cartoon on a Canadian station to get the toys.  :roll:

I think that we have to have the cartoon for them to make more than a half assed effort to promote them. If I didn't already know what they looked like, I'd have never have figured out where they were from the product placement, which is to say not actually having the face of the product showing. :roll:  

We have the cartoon from FOX. I was kind of into it, until it became about killing giant powerstone robots *every* freakin episode. I actually got so bored by the cartoon today I had to switch it off.

Also I hate Tunnel Rat now. Even more so, because I used to like him.

Holy crap...so Canada now has a better selection of Sigma 6 than I do?  Time to move up north, I guess...  :shifty:

I saw a few at my local ToysRUs in K-Town. Looks like maybe one case of the delux figures at $19.99. No Snake Eyes or Storm shadow, so for now I passed.

Sigma 6 hit the shelves at the St. Catharines TRU today.  U.S. packaging?   They also had the Ninja Showdown set and ONE Spirit shrink wrapped with a Sigma Ninja Showdown DVD included.

How much is the ninja showdown. I picked it up in the US for $12 and I hope I didn't get ripped off too badly.

Last I heard, in the States it was around $19.99.  Here it's about $24.99
You got a good deal Raps.
