Those bastards have us by the balljoints.
You're always welcome not to get them from Zellers.

Me, I'll wait and see if Toy Wars can get some in for less.

Jay, have I met you before at TOY WARS? Ask for "ERNESTO" next time you're there, if I'm there, I'll turn around at the sound of that name...just hope there aren't two or three Ernestos in the same room that day. who knows, It could happen  :lol:
Hah, I don't live nearby. I'm usually just there on Saturdays, since my Japanese class is just up Queen Mary. Most of the time I go I'm pretty much the only customer in the store.

Then I'll make sure to dispatch at least one of my Ernesto drones to Toy Wars one of these saturdays. I'll just check out which one is available right now....oh damn - they're all booked for the month. :lol:

I don't get to Toy Wars enough.  Sure an awesome store.  What's this I hear about Thursday Evening Joe Nights? :shifty:

Oh yeah, the Brossard TRU has some o'them James Cameron's Avatar figures and vehicles.  Not sure if anyone cares.  Single-carded figures are $12.99 each {fail} and the large vehicles (mech suit and Halo-ish ATV) are $35 each.

Figures are 11.99$ at Zellers (still fail), and the vehicles are 29.99$.

Nothing really worth the price, IMO.

I agree.  But I might pick up a mech when they're on liquidation due to the line failing. ::)

If they hang around the TRUs long enough to be clearanced down to a penny like that Ghost Rider Scarecrow I saw, I might get a few. :p

A penny?  Are you kidding?  That's amazing.  I got a Marvel Legends Banshee for a buck at the TRU.  Been on the shelf so long the bubble was yellowing.

Zellers in Angrignon is now heavily stocked on the Target-exclusive small vehicle packs, but still at 29.99$.

I encourage everyone who's outraged at the price to call HBC customer service at 1-888-226-2225 and issue a complaint in regards to the price. If you have the product # or the SKU of the toy handy, it's really helpful when you call.

Yeah, 29.99$ is pretty high. But there is actually a sale at Zellers (25% off on GI Joe toys). Meaning the Black Snake armor is now 22.49$. So I took one.

There is pretty much everything at Zellers "Galeries d'Anjou". Figs, vehicles, 3-pack, etc.

The sale is up to November 19. Good luck everyone!

I took Storm Shadow, myself.

Very disappointed that much like with the RHINO, Hasbro did not bother retooling the footpegs.

Zellers Langelier is filled with ROC merchandise like the Target exclusive.
I used the sale to pick up an extra Rescue mission pack.

Are you referring to that 4 figure pack exclusive?  That's come to CDN Zellers stores?    :o   I have yet to see any here in Alberta.
