North and East London W-M's were picked over for figures but the vehicles and lots of Storms, Duke and Beachhead for all. They must have restocked early in the week, I missed the CC and AVs.

I don't figure they'll stay so cheap, but I am not prepared to pay more than ten bucks for joes at retail. It's scary to think the $13 price tag could ever come true. At that cost may as well import everything from the States or just border hop for joe shopping.

Great line up of toys this year. Hope to see them all on Canadian shelves before much longer.

I didn't realize Zellers and TRU had sightings yet, that's great. I need a couple more Alley Vipers and better get another CC to trade now before everyone discovers he's not very rare (or very desirable, either way).

I like most of them pretty well. You can't argue they aren't well crafted at the very least. I don't really like the design of Storm Shadow in the POC but really like the Resolute version which makes up for it. All the equipment on these POC figures is really a step up in detail and quality, nice to see Hasbro really taking this brand seriously again.

If anyone needs a Beachhead, Duke, Snakes or Stormy on English-only cards, let me know. I just got a case and they really loaded it with dupes this time around.

It's a huge improvement on the ROC version, you have to admit at least that much. The Alley Viper should be the chase figure in this assortment (though I assume to most people he is anyways).

Why?  Did they change the figure?  I thought it was just a new colour scheme?  Which to me doesn't change the craptacular nature of the figure.

Short packing figures, specifically for that reason is never a good thing.  The reasoning behind doing that with CC is fine.  It never would have done as well as Doc did as a mail away figure.  Most likely Hasbro would have been stuck with thousands of the figure. 



It is just a much more interesting looking version to me, the chrome and and overall darker color scheme is way better than neon blue and a translucent faceplate. Still not a great figure but I'd much rather display it than the ROC version.

I found a couple of Tiger Claws too, were those your returns? If so, thanks!
I'm, er, not sure what you mean.....

I likely will have a complete wave to go back as well  Want any of it?

I just wondered if the Tiger Claws had been your returns is all. They were kinda out of place, I hadn't seen any at WM in about a month and then two just sitting there, the two I was most eager to find more of. In the past I've found odd things that had to be returns like a USA carded Viper I found there around the time the movie toys came out. Anyways, I am clearing out all my W3 doubles on YJ's forums, or trying to, but I wanted a few more ATVs since I had a hard time finding those at Winners. I don't think I need any more thanks though.
