pretty neat these are coming in full force

I already have US versions coming of most, but these will be great to have to open. Grabbed a Cobra Mech off the top of a pallet, the restock hadn't happened yet but they were out to be shelved, so I just opened a case while no one was looking.

Nice work! I would have done the same.

Sitting in the parking lot of Hwy 7/Hwy 400 Walmart with my score!!!

They had everything except CC.  I took both Alley Vipers, Firefly, Snowjob, Wolfhound, Doom Cycle and Ghost Hawk.  They still have HISS, Doom Cycle, Ghost Hawk and multiples of the remaining figs.

The vehicles are the next isle over from the figures near the back wall.

I invaded Raptors turf today and scored an Alley Viper and Cobra Commander, so yes, they hit Guelph.

I went back to Argyle WM in London after snagging that mech ten minutes before close, and they'd floored all the toys but all teh Joe they got was two cases of Mechs. Disappointing!

Found your remnants this afternoon. No sign of CC, Snow job or of course alley vipers. I have zero interest in cc, but wouldn't mind the other two. After i left there was SS, lots of duke & beachhead. No more FFs or SEs. Saw the doom cycle and the ghost hawk, but no wolf hounds.
Must say the figures look fantastic and so does the packaging.

Fanshawe Park WM on the edge of London got one case of figures and one case each of all the vehicles. Nothing had been touched so I grabbed the CC and Alley Viper. Left all the rigs since I already worked a trade for them on yojoe. My gut feeling was that we were gonna get screwed out of the first wave entirely, I am glad I am wrong. I love that the stands went back to 25th style and that Cobras are two-pegged now! This line is far superior to the movie line, which wasn't without its charms on its own.
