Pete,

 Was there any Gi joe stuff left at the Richmond Hills location? I was thinking about heading down this sunday from Kitchener. Is it worth my drive?
Let me know.

thanks
Mike

The gas will cost you more than you'll save on figures. Not to mention a waste of your time. There's next to nothing as far as Joes go this year.

There's plenty of other stuff (TMNT, Batman, Barbie) if you're doing toy drives. It's just that the Joe/Transformers selection this year is fairly awful.

The only GI JOE stuff left was

- one Cobra Hiss IV
- a bunch of the Battle Hornets/Neo Viper & Neutralizers/Backblast
- one BTR Cobra Raven/Wild Weasel

So who knows if they will re-stock the two packs as the pegs were empty, just like when I went back on day 1, hoping to find some re-stocked 2 packs.

If your going just to find GI JOEs, you will be highly disappointed.  Lots of other toys though.

Anyone know what the Star Wars selection was like?

Any wrestling this year? I haven't seen any for 2 years now.

Pete,

What was the price approx. on these item if you remember. I don't have the following in my collection. It might be cheaper for me to get them off
ebay.

- one Cobra Hiss IV
- a bunch of the Battle Hornets/Neo Viper
- Neutralizers/Backblast

Thanks
Mike

Then i guess, no road trip on sunday then. Hopefully london will have something when that location  opens up. If there's nothing there, I can
stop by "HEROS".

Um guys? If you don't see things on the shelves, just ask for them - I went today and picked up 25 2 packs at $3 each - They opened 3 cases for me. I left a bunch of Python patrol on the shelves, but I snagged all the BATS. ;-)

They have an entire palat at the back full of joe, and they are more than happy to crack a box or two open at your request. Ask for stinky. :lol:

Wow that's a lot of toys.

And you have room for this stuff?
