Found Mattel Basic 8 at the Mayfair TRU (Victoria). I picked up Maryse. It's cool to hear you got a great pickup, but I'd love to know how the island is getting new stock before we do here on the mainland... God, my local TRU on Broadway still has stock from when Mattel first hit last January.....pathetic.

I then spend the rest of my time sulking when I realize that stores overstock of one series and totally abandon others found in the rest of Canada (i.e. Legends 4).

My local Walmart just stocked Deluxe 6 and had some Deluxe 4 and 5 as well. Saw tons of GSP's, Bas Rutten, Kimbo Slice and Mir among others.
$8 each.

OK, I'm sure this has been discussed endlessly, but I don't remember the answer... ... Why on earth haven't we seen Jakks Pacific TNA action figures at Canadian retailers yet? Is there some sort of distribution issue going on here? Anyway, my bank account would rather I didn't start collecting those, but I was just really curious as to why -- after over a year of availability in the USA -- we have NOT gotten our share!

Anyway, my bank account would rather I didn't start collecting those, but I was just really curious as to why -- after over a year of availability in the USA -- we have NOT gotten our share! I'm kind of upset I never found them in mass retail for a decent price, but I was lucky enough to locate a collectibles/comic shop 45 minutes away that carries TNA Legends of the Ring figures for $17.99 each. I picked up Sting and debated getting Hogan, but passed. They had some Deluxe Impact figures, but I don't collect those. As to why they never hit regular retail, I'm not sure. I think it might be a popularity issue with WWE and Mattel being so big, I'm sure Mattel has deals with so many retailers out there to have huge WWE displays in their toy sections that maybe retailers simply made a choice that they only needed one type of wrestling figure in their stock. This is all speculation though.

Jakks once told me they were supposed to be at Canadian Tire's in December but that never happened.

Picked up UFC Deluxe 5 Machida and Deluxe 6 GSP last night at Walmart for $8 each.
Still waiting for RSC to restock Elite 9 Miz though.

I, the Artist Formerly Known As endLess, am now under a new persona. Alas, Hollywood North Hogan is born, brother.
On a sightings related note, my local TRU here in Vancouver has some new Rumblers boxes in their overstock area, but haven't been opened yet. Their toy isle is undergoing a massive change to facilitate the new Transformers: Dark of the Moon toys so the WWE section is getting reduced in size...
