Local comic shops and on-line retailers like Hub City toys, one of the sponsors here.

Walmart has just started with 30th Ann Wave 1 now.  it will be a long time if it all that will find them at retail.  If you want them now, you will have to go online to get them

Thanks for the suggestion.   I just looked at Hub City Toys website and they don't even have those three figures listed on their site...   :'(


PS -- What the HELL is wrong with Hasbro Canada's distribution?   Is it just me or is it getting worse every year?

Contact them. Jody Scott is the proprietor at Hub City and he told me he is ordering in a few more cases of wave 10, which includes those figures....but the cases are dwindling at the distributor, so you should act quickly.

Dont forget to try ebay!
I found a seller who was selling the renegades figures, a little pricey for Lifeline at $15, but I picked up a renegade scarlett from him for $5.  I picked up about 6 figures from this guy and I figured the pricey I paid for some was offset by the deals.
More or less I paid what I would if I got them from the shelves, so Im happy.

That may be the best we can do for now.  Itll be great when the movie figures start rolling around.

Its funny, we got some great stuff over the summer (the cycle armour and other vehicles at Winners over the summer) and now it looks like were in a slump before the movie comes out.

Or you can trade for them here?  Make a thread of figures you want and what you have for trade.  I got a lot of hard to find figures from fellow Canuckleheads here.

Normally I would recommend staying within Canada. However, if you have to go outside of Canada here is a couple of places I have shopped at:

Dork Side toys is fairly new to me (discovered them via Ebay) but I'm happy with the prices and service so far and they have all 3 guys you are looking for. The mark up on them is reasonable for harder to find figures:
