Awesome news! I'll be all over that set. I remember there are two decent repaints of Wild Bill and Sand Viper, but who's the third figure again?

Is this the same pack that comes with Wild Bill, the Night Sand Viper and Night Recondo? If so, dang, I've gotta swing by my Toys R Us this morning and take a look. I had just about give up on Toys R Us as well for anything decent. Looks like I was wrong.

Sweet. To answer my own question, this is the set I was hoping for. I just got back and for $19.54 it was totally worth it. If you count the helicopter as a figure, that is less than $5.00 Canadian per figure/ helicopter plus the comic. I might grap a couple more of these next Saturday jst for the Sand Vipers  :thumbsup:
Febuary really has been a G.I.Joe month for me. To bad my wallet is getting kind of thin.  :shifty:

You can find them at the TRU on HWY 10 in Mississauga. The Recondo I got had a broken boot. That's "value" for ya!

All of Canada is supposed to have bilingual packaging by law not just Quebec.

Not quite. In Quebec it IS the law. Elsewhere..... it's not.
I had a link from a government of Canada page somewhere..... don't know where it went however.
