Well duh hasblow.  If us collectors knew what was suppose or expect every wave to come out at THE SAME TIME AS THE USA RELEASE DATE, then we wouldn't buy it from the States.  Don't blame us.   It's this BS that ticks me off with these guys.

Comic Three Packs - how did these pass Canada by?
I can already hear the answer from Hasbro Canada "Lack of retailer insterest."

Cost factor to convert the packaging and comic book to bi-lingual - that and lack of interest.


But... they ARE available to Canada.

Wow, Hasbro knows how to make retailers and fans smile.

As I read your description, I was picturing a booth, that was decorated in bland gray colours, staffed with people in dark gray suits, looking down at you in disgust for even suggesting different ways in wich they could sell their prodcut.

Anything through Diamond doesn't count.
It would have to come direct from Hasbro Canada. - and they aren't.
