That is right WINNERS has them for $9.99! The Winners at McCowan and 401 had 4 of each on shelf! It will most likely be distributed like the VAMPFury 2 cases per store. Get out Now and get them before they are gone!

I just picked up the cycle armour at the Winners at the Seaway mall in Welland - they had about 3 of each left!
-
Now wait a minute. Last time I checked Winners wasn't affiliated with Zellers!? But this is good news because I just sold the one I got at the Joe Con.
-
I just checked 3 more Winners and found nothing. Keep Checking guys as there is no way Zellers will be this low when they put out there stock.

I guess Hasbro Canada had to settle for the discount retail to get rid of the rest of the stock.
-
Hwy 7 and Woodbine Winners had 4 sets, I picked up 2 set, still another 2 for others. Ill check the one at Younge and Hwy 7 tomorrow.

Saw your auction sell, you got a great price, and that will allow you to get 4 sets now lol.
-
Strange. Hasbro didn't say anything about this.
It's cool - but I'm honestly surprised.
Going to have to send them an email!
-
Hey Bandanov, which Winners have you checked so far?
-
which Winners have you checked so far?
I went to:
1. McCowan and 401 - 3 Hiss Scouts left
2. Markville Mall - Nothing
3. Woodbine and Highway 7 - Nothing
-
Thanks for the heads up. I guess I am going to be hitting all my local Winners.
-
Great work and thanks for the heads up!
-
Confirmed with Hasbro
Winners picked up the "leftovers" after Zellers took the majority
Winners just happened to put them on shelves first!
-
Cool hopefully Zellers will stock soon, though looking at the winners price tag regular retail will be around 20...so picking them up at Winners is half the price, maybe even more

If that is the case then, then Winners will not have a restock on them at the stores so we should track the stores that were cleaned out.
-
I left two Cycle Armours at the Gerrard Square Winners and at the College Park Winners. Heading to Dufferin Mall soon.
-
Funny things about the Cycle Armour. Look at the leg piece / engine where the date stamp is.
The cast (or mold, whatever it's called) was made back in 2009. Was this suppose to be part of the rise of Cobra line?
That would be my next question for the Q & A with Hasbro.

Nope, at least not necessarily. POC planning was likely started in late 2009, and the molds for many of the POC figures were intended for a later ROC wave-so I've heard it said. Those later ROC wave ideas were quickly re-purposed into POC, with various items going in to waves at certain points in time. The 2009 stamp isn't unusual here. If it had been a 2008 or 2007 stamp, THEN you'd have a serious question for the Q&A.
-
I don't have a Arashikage Cycle from ROC, but could it share that same piece? The Arashikage Cycle came out in 2009 I believe.
-
nm Arrow's answer is prob better then mine :)
-
No sign of them at Dufferin Mall or Bathurst and Lawrence yet.
-
Hwy 7 and Younge/bayview one didn't have any, not sure if someone got them, but their toy section looked like a tornado hit and the shelves didn't even seem to have any room for new product anyways...
-
Winners at Dixie mall has 8 sets today when i was there.
-
K-W Winners always let me down. I hot 2 last night and all I saw were G.I. Joe bobble heads.
-
I got my Hiss Scout and Cycle Armour from Winners in Barrie.
I was surprised at the amount of weapons that came with Ashiko.
-
Nothing in Durham Region as of yesterday. Checked Oshawa, Whitby, Ajax, and Pickering. will go out hunting again this weekend some time!
-
Eglinton and Warden had nothing today. Eglinton and Laird is cleaned out. I picked up 2 cycle and 2 hiss. The woman said someone just left a bit before me with the same items.
-
The Winners at McCowan and 401 still has 2 HISS Scouts left.
-
The Winners in Fairview Pointe-Claire had three sets of each.
-
Sweet, I guess we can move this thread to the Canada section since we have a confirmation in QC.
-
K-W AND Cambridge are dry but I scored 2 sets in Oakville.
I left a Hiss Attack Scout (the other cycle armour was already gone).
One set for Ebay, one set for trade fodder since Pete the Greek was nice enough to help me out already.
-
Seems each store is getting 2 cases.
Cases are 2 of each item ( so 4 vehicles per case )
So if a Winners has had 4 sets out - it's likely not got anymore.
-
Nothing in Stouffville, looks like the GTA is all dried up. >:(
Now if Zellers can get there act together we could have been hunting thier stores instead of Winners.
-
Nothing in the Georgetown Winners - and I think a small explosive went off there as well.
-
As I mentioned in the Zellers thread, I went to 4 different winners in Northern Calgary (D/T, Beacon Hill, Crossiron Mills, and Deerfoot) but none of them had anything.
-
Poor Zellers, they do us a solid by getting these from Hasbro and get scooped by Winners.
It shouldn't have taken them this long to stock them, as demonstrated by Winners, and now they are going to sit on stock because price and timing are poor. (Does anyone think they will be $10 at Zellers??)
-
Finally found them in K-W. ;D
-
Nothing at Dixie Outlet Mall. I'm going to check Dufferin mall again to see if they were slow to stock.
-
Still nothing at Dufferin Mall.
-
Toronto is sold out, you have better luck in Quebec, or wait until Zellers puts them out.
-
Still nothing at the 2 Winners stores near me in NW Calgary.
Well, except that one of them had plenty of Destro, Duke, Cobra Commander and Gung Ho bobbles.
-
Out with the fam at the Markville mall yesterday and found a lonely HIS Scout at Winners. just the one and no cycle armour. I bought it for my son and let him crack it open when we got home. pretty impressive i must say. i didn't have high hopes for it at all... I guess i will be searching Zellers for the cycle armour as none of the winners out here iin the durham area seem o have gotten or put out either of them!
