Quote from: "darth cujo"Quote from: "Canuklehead"Nevermind the TF Rattler and PP Conquest, it'd be nice to see the first-run exclusives up here. They've had a year on shelves state-side - I say that after a year, exclusives should no longer be "exclusive" and should see a wide release.
Actually they're usually only exclusive in the US, so Target exclusives are available to Canadian retailers from day one. For example, Zellers carried some target exclusive star wars stuff a while back, and TRU even brought in target exclusive snowspeeders (target sticker and all). In this case it seems Canadian retailers up here just passed on them.
Dang! But then there's hope... Maybe when some of the Wave 1 vehicles stop clogging shelves, they'll order some of the "exclusives"
Yeah, that isn't going to happen. The only way they are going to order exclusives is if the movie product does well. Before the first TF movie, you had the odd exclusive find it's way to Canada, after the movie almost every exclusive has come to Canada for TFs. GI JOE needs that same result for things to change up here.
With the complete over order of wave 1 vehicles, and the stupid case make up we aren't going to see much in the lead up to the movie.
