Georgetown.
Anyone have any idea how long it take them to do a reset?
I really don't want to have to go in every day of the week.

Thanks.
It really depends on the store but it seems to run about a week or so before the whole thing is done.  However they seem to do it in stages, so the action figure aisle could be done any time during that period.

Crap. I was going to get my brother-in-law to score some for me and then work got in the way of that phone call.

Well, I spoke with a guy at Conestoga Mall who is responsible for ordering stock. I told him how these are selling out everywhere. I even told him about Joe Canuck and the meet this April with Larry Hama and Hasbro Canada. He wrote all the info down along with my personal email address and said he would pass all this info on to the person who does the ordering. He then promised me he would stock the heck out of the place with G.I.Joe and email me when stock arrives. He seemed like a nice guy. Think his name was Grant.

Strangely, the pegs labeled for the comic packs at the Fairview mall (St. Catharines) Zellers are now gone.

I haven't seen them at Zellers in ages.  Only Toys'R'Us.

TRU in Brampton had 2 x Scarlet/Hawk and 1 Snake Eyes Pack.
Left them behind.

I would really like the Second batch of comic packs to appear as I think the US is slated to get Wave 3 any day.

Comic Packs seem to be disappearing from Zellers.  I haven't seen them restocked in weeks and my local store even took down the peg recently.  Is anyone else seeing this?  I wonder why.

According to Joesightings, Wave 3 is all over the place in the US.

I'd go down, but don't know what kind of March Break traffic would be at the bridge.

K.B.  I saw some of the comic packs over at the Zellers by Simcoe Road (Oshawa) last week.  They are collecting dust there.   I also saw some comic packs at the Whitby TRU as well. 

If Hasbro wanted to hit a homer with the comic packs in Canada, I would have passed on this wave as it's weak.
