Manitoba & Saskatchewan / Next wave of comic two packs are here.
« on: June 28, 2008, 02:00:50 PM »
TRU on Regent Ave was the new comic packs. Picked up Copperhead & Shipwreck, Duke & Red Star,  Firefly & Storm Shadow. Also had a few of the last wave comic packs. They are  in the middle of renovating this store and I see no more tags for individual figs anywhere. I hope that doesn't mean they're not going to stock them

Hey all,

My wife and I are announcing the birth of our baby daughter Julie who was born May 22 at 6:09am (central time). This is our first child and she's awesome.
Now I'm off for sleep.

I would aggree with that. Since the 25th is geared for collectors and I assume the movie lines will be geared towards getting new younger age fans, both of those lines are a time limited. Not sure how much longer the 25th line will continue for, but the movie line will only probably be in stores, like all movie merchandise, a year at most/or its relevant (as in did the movie bomb) Really young kids toys can last a long time because they really don't have anything to tie them to a certain time frame or storyline.
 Wow I don't think this made any sense.

General Joe Talk / Viper

hmmm just got the new vipers (well 3 of them anyway) and I gotta say it looks pretty sweet.
However i really dislike the goggles. they come off way to easy for my liking. Any touch on the head the the thing comes off! Tempted to glue them on or leave them off permanently.

I like it! Good introduction to the toy for kids. I'd let my nephews play with those. I just get to nervous when they touch my other joes as I'm afraid they'll break/lose them.

General Joe Talk / Re: Retailer Question #1: How much do you spend on store exclusives?
« on: May 13, 2008, 08:21:02 PM »
I go once a year south into North Dakota to basically pick up around $100 worth of stuff which is anything I can't find in Canada. I'd probably spend more if I wasn't also partying hard that weekend.

Looks real good. Never cared for Nemesis Enforcer though. Like the IG and Lady Jaye quite a bit. Where's Covergirl?

Manitoba & Saskatchewan / more 25th found at Galaxy Comics
« on: April 26, 2008, 05:52:52 PM »
Went to Galaxy Comics on Henderson Highway, they had a bunch of figures. Beachhead, Duke, Scarlett, Cobra Commander, Air Troopers, some 5 packs and comic packs as well.
 Of note they had about 8 CG's. Prices varied, but the CG's were the same as you buy at TRU.
I left them all. I was only in there for a short time and only quickly skimmed the figures as I only had a few dollars to spend.



Checked back there on Mar 17,  found a couple of Vipers. One on American and two on Canadian card. The also had Snake Eyes that looked like the remake of ver. 3 (from '89). So I'm hoping the regular stores will be getting the new stuff soon.

Like if they all had the nano suit basis but each with something that separated them visually.

....
The black uniforms look like some real US future uniform system.  Umm, ok. 


Ohhh maybe their part of the new Battle Force 2000 Team! :wink:
