I found them at the Oshawa Centre's Zellers

You are my new mortal enemy sir. Unless you have an extra dreadknock 2 pack.

I didn't buy any of them.  All they had was wave 1 (Duke and CC x2, Scarlett and Hawk x2, and SE and SS x2).  I have a friend in the States that has already found wave 1 and 2 for me.  How the heck I am suppose to know Canada was going to get comic packs, yet alone Zellers that hasn't carried 3 3/4 Joes for over a decade.  This has been Canada's biggest problem.  Get the freaking product the same time as the Americans. I don't wait.

Yep your right. Some places I've seen though are advertising that it is a wave of 5 2 packs not 3.

I found two full sets at the Zellers on Upper James in Hamilton.

I can head back and get them should anyone need them. If someone local wants them, PM me and I'll let you know where I hid them..... yes, it felt good to HIDE Joes again. LOL.

When I was a kid, I'd hide them in the barbies until I had money to come back and buy them...

I would of picked them up, but it's just easier this way since I'm over in that area nearly every day anyway.

Joes at Zellers bodes well for the Target exclusive vehicles coming here (though it's a shame they don't carry any of the original art work).

How so?  Is there a history of Zellers carrying Target exclusives?

Zellers has carried Target AND K*B exclusives before.
So it could happen again.

Two that I can think of off the top of my head:

Target Bumblebee Two Pack
K*B Toys Action Fleet Remote Control AT-AT (This is about 8 years ago).

I KNOW they've had a few other things that were Target exclusive before - I think Hot Wheels, Superheroes.... and I think another Star Wars thing.

But I either wasn't into them, or didn't care enough to remember. ;-)

The AT AT I actually bought at Zellers. And I saw the bumblebee one with my own eyes ($35.00 - yikes! - It was $16.00 in the U.S.)
