I mentioned this in another thread but thought I'd make a new subject message so it's easier to find. I just picked up both the Jungle Strike Humvee and Sky sweeper jet from my local Toys R Us in Kitchener, $19.99 each ($45 or so after tax for both).
BTW, the Sky Sweeper comes with Sgt.Airborne in a black outfit. Is that what figure came with the Sky sweeper before? It's not mentioned on the Yo Joe section of the figure:

No figure came with the Sky Sweeper from before. Which explains why I don't own it.
-
gonna have to check my local toys r us's tonight. thanks for the hot tip that they are in ontario!
-
Also, the Sky sweeper is black where I heard the other one from '03 was a midnight purple. And it still comes with sound attack features.
-
The SkySweeper sound very familiar - and I am really glad that Humvee made it to Canada! I will be hunting all of the GTA looking for that thing this weekend.

Dont bother going to the toys r us in Mississauga on hurontario . was there last night, dident have either, had lots of road rebels....sigh.....

My local Toy R Us is down to 2 of the Humvee's. No more Sky sweepers.
I think they come 2 Skysweepers and 4 Humvee's per case so when you do see them, even though the Humvee looks cooler, the Sky Sweeper is the one to watch for.

Saw both of these at Toysrus at the 427 and QEW, the Jet is slightly different, I haven't opened it yet, but just from picking it up in the store they paint application on it is different, as for the Humvee it is amazing, I have posted a picture over on Joe customs, simply because I couldn't figure out how to link a file here.

I picked up both in a London Toys R Us on friday afternoon, I was not sure if I wanted to get the jet and I know I wanted the humvee, but after purchasing both I opened them up and I have to tell you I like the Jet even more of the two, I already own 2 corps humvees and there is pretty much little or no difference between the 2, I have customized the two corps humvees so they pretty much look like the new hummer I have.
But the jet just looks awesome, all except for the little flight pod, that I will never use. not a bad vehicle for 20 bucks!

They made it to Ottawa :)
-
Saw one of the Humvee's last night in Oakville TRU. It was hidden behind some stuff, so I put it back in plain view.
-
There's plenty of them in the Hurontario/Eglinton TRU in Mississauga.
-
they must have restocked, as the last time I was there the only had 2 Humvee's left.
I am hoping this vehicle sells well, and convinces TRU to take all of the other vehicles too. - I am not however going to hold my breathe on that one.
-
The TRUs here in montreal sold out of Humvees and skysweepers super fast, but they have tons of the Battle hornet and Neutralizers left (cause really who would pay 17$ for that!)
-
These two vehicles were sold ot at my local TRU :shock: See, Hasbro, make a good, realistic product, at a reasonable price, and people will buy it. It's not rocket science.
-
There are still some at my TRU in Ottawa
19.99 each

The JS Humvees arrived in St Catharines' TRU this past week as did the Stealth Jet. The Humvee is great! I'm thinking about getting the stealth at some point too.
