PoC at TRU
« on: March 11, 2011, 08:46:55 PM »

Yup, saw wave 3 today! They had 2-3 of each.

Bad news is... $9.99! :(

They do tend to have sales from time to time so the $9.99 might not be too bad a thing. Anyways, hopefully this means we'll start seeing new Joes at TRU regularly again. Too bad they weren't in time to bring in the QK and Spirit figures though. :(

I'm not sure to be happy or sad.... $9.99 WTF?!!  Okay most figs out now are like $9.92, but having them at WM for $7.92 it's a bitter pill to swallow.

Which TRU?  I keep checking mine and all I see is the GI Joe section getting smaller and smaller...

Sorry, should have said. TRU Vaughan Mills. There were 3 pegs holding the 10 or so figures. It's not much, but at least it's something.

I'd be happy to pay that price for the exclusives. Hopefully wave 3 will move given they are so late to the party. They should have waited for wave 4. I fear that wave 3 might peg warm and they'll lose confidence in the line again.

Yeah, I saw in my local TRU just thrown on a shelf, up high so no child can reach  them, not on a hook or anything. It's like they want the line to fail.  :(

TRU at Victoria Park and Lawrence had a couple cases.  I snagged a Shock Trooper and left the rest so there were about 3-4 of each.

I found them at the TRU at Cedabrae Mall (Markham and Lawrence) they were hidden on a side display on the bottom pegs.  As usual no Shockies to be found.
