New TRU Exclusives now available in Canada - Doc, Shipwreck and Sting Raider
« on: March 21, 2010, 11:13:56 PM »
ActionFigureNews has reported that the G.I. Joe Rise Of Cobra Arctic Threat Doc and Arctic Threat Shipwreck have been found in Canada!  This particular sighting was made at a TRU in British Columbia.   I will be keeping my eyes on the look out for them in T.O.

I will continue this thead in Ontario when I find them in Toronto.  I will give more details of the BC sighting under BC as it is more relevant to them.

I can confirm that they are now in Ontario

I saw Shipreck and Doc at the Whitby TRU today for 9.99.  They had several of them there.  No other new figures.   

Also the TRU Sting Raider (aka the repainted Cobra Water Moccasin) was there for $29.99.

This is good news. I don't care about the other 2 figs so much, but I want one of these.

That is good news because I haven't seen the Sting Raider in the States since I snagged the last one a few months ago.  Judging by that they are pretty rare in the U.S.

The site that I bought Sting Raider in the US has increased the price on it to $45 USD from $29.  I guess it is getting rare there.

Found the sting raider (lots of them!) at my local TRU yesterday. Love that little boat!

I picked it up, and it is great - I think I am going to grab another one.
Sadly I never was able to find this the first time it was released in the Moccasin blue/green.

Good sign that Canadian TRUs are still on board bringing up to date exclusives to us.
