Ya I'm pretty disappointed by that too.  It means I'm now going to have beg someone south of the border to get one for me and then pay a good $20 to have it shipped to me.
I'd guess the chances of Zellers picking up an exclusives that large are pretty slim, though I hope they prove me wrong.

I love it and the x-30.  There is no reason why Zellers in Canada couldn't get these.
This is a perfect example of an item that if it doesn't come to Canada retail, I will order online and pad my order with several other figures to make the shipping less painfull.
But shipping on both of those jets is going to be easily $20-30 plus taxes/duty at the boarder.

This would be a good thing to ask Hasbro Canada...

A little piece of crap.

How much is duty and taxes, generally?  I never had to pay it and don't want to be too surprised when I do order internationally...

When I have ordered larger vehicles from the states I have seen everyting from not having to pay anything (best scenario)
to having to pay full PST & GST plus $10-15 in processing fees etc.
So a $30 item, that I paid $20 to ship has arrived costing an extra $20 just to get it from the post office.

I would love to see any of the new vehicles show up north here. I know some are coming in the fall, but I agree that this and any future Target exclusives would work good for Zellers.

I want one. I can pitch my 2 incomplete trying to piece them together rattlers to make room for it, but I want one. I've been trying to get a whole rattler together for years.
