Movie Joes in Winnipeg
« on: July 02, 2009, 04:29:15 PM »

For those interested. Both Tru and Wal-Mart on Regent have stocked up on the movie figures and vehicles.
 Wal-mart had a couple of steel crushers, nights ravens, while Tru had those, plus the smaller vehicles (i.e Snake Trax with Scarp Iron etc.).
Prices are same as would find anywhere else in Canada.
 
 Interesting to see the Ice Viper with one of the torpedoes from the Cobra Wolf. Is it now some sort of motorized ski?

 I left everything as I'm not collecting the movie stuff, though I was tempted bu Storm Shadow who just looks excellent. I'll leave my joes set in the 80's.
(I just know if I buy just one thing I'll buy more and my wife would not be happy :( )

Just a quick update that I spotted the PIT at both TRU (3), and Wal-Mart (2) on Regent. Still lots of figures at both locations.

 Zellers at Kildonan Place on Regent (across the road) also had figures and smaller vehicles and Raven, all in a display stand in the middle of the aisle. you can't miss it.
