I may need to get a hooded CC and IG Destro. Wait... bilingual packaging?
Yes, and very poorly done packaging at that.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa? That's cool. Sad part is I was just near Walmart and I could have gone in and looked around. Oh well. That's still a good sign. Did you see a lot or just a case or two?
Looked like the remains of a single case.

I'm not really sure what differentiates the two. Do only the super centers have the expanded grocery isle?

Will thare be a game ps2 ds or what ever and will thare be movie fig?. cuz of the movie is coming out?
Yes there will be movie themed toys, though few details are available at this time. I believe they wanted to have the main line of movie figures in the same design and scale as the 25th anniversary product, but I'm sure there will a few different lines (see Transformers).
There is also a video game planned, I believe EA has the rights to. Someone please correct me if that wrong.

Has Giant Tiger re-stocked with Sigma? It seems pretty bare after Christmas.

Would it be possible to get you to use fewer twist ties and elastics in packaging the products? It took me 15 minutes to free a Dragon Hawk from it's box, and that was with a knife and tools!
This question was asked by the Star Wars folks and the answer was basically, this is what is required to achieve the dynamic poses (I know that doesn't really apply to the Dragon Hawk) which make the figures stand out on the shelves and will not go away. They threw in the obligatory "we'll look into it" but it seemed like a dead end.

Ask all the questions you want! The more questions asked, the better selection we'll have to choose from!
Thanks, will do!

Hope I'm not abusing the privilege by posting more than once but here's another question:
Will any of the store exclusives (vehicles/multi-packs) be available in Canadian stores?

Question for you:
Will this be a one time deal or an ongoing line of communication with Hasbro Canada?
Question for Hasbro:
Why was the 25th Anniversary line available for such a brief time and limited quantities and then suddenly pulled?
When will the 25th Anniversary line return to Canadian retail stores and will the packaging be bi-lingual or English only (US Packaging).
Probably the obvious questions but someone had to ask them!
Oh, and a thank you to the staff of JoeCanuck for making this possible!

General Joe Talk / Re: Toys R Us Online (Canada) has 25th 5 packs (first 2)
« on: November 18, 2007, 09:04:07 AM »
From what I've seen the 5-packs have been available online twice. The first time it was single case (1 Joe + 2 Cobra), and this most recent time was also a single case. On the plus side, at least they came back. Hopefully this is a sign that they do still intend to carry the line....or maybe they just found a dusty old case in the back somewhere.
