What a terrible idea. Bill can't force Canadian retailers to buy product anyway. Stores in Canada don't even care to regularly, reliably stock the main lines do they? They do regularly stock basics. They did regularly stock elites up until E39. The problem is that E39 is still warming hard up here. We haven't got any elite sets since E40. We got a mediocre amount of E40 but not enough for everyone. Not to say you guys don't get the shaft, because you totally do, but I live in the Southeast US and we haven't had past Elite 39 much either. It was a plague everywhere it rested. I could drive fifty miles any direction from my apartment and come back with enough Sid and Mizdows to make a fort.

We Canadians did get an exclusive to our Walmart stores.... Elite 39. The worst set ever lol , why could we not get stuck with elite 43 or 42 Dude no way is that the worst set ever. Over distributed? Sure. But no means is that the worst set ever. Bulldog alone makes it a great wave.

Sting is pretty good, but the molded on t-shirt is a turn-off for those who want a ring gear current sting. The rest of the set is meh and forgettable. Yah I agree, that being said I did buy the whole set because it was sitting forever lol. But yah Godfather and Davy Boy are the best

I'll go against the grain and said it wouldn't be bad. I know it would be kind of expensive to get one in the USA but screw it. Let us Americans have to chase something for once

Probably would be the worst financial decision they can make Prob not. We get NOTHING usually and when the hot figs do arrive they're gone instantly. Then it's leftovers for a year. So considering we get no exclusives and it's too expensive to get u.s. ones...giving us some would probably see some sales.

Yeah right, we won't get jack sh*t. The fact that I can't get the elite Breeze without paying scalper prices pisses me off to no end.

I ing hope they make an exclusive to Canada. I would TOTALLY buy both of those full sets you mention above, AND I would also buy full sets of them in bulk and sell them to American collectors for 4 times the retail price because I'm tired of buying US exclusives at inflated prices. This is why I stared this , I want that damn Tyler Beeeze but I am not spending 60 Canadian on it when some one bought it for 19.99 Maybe someone on this board can help you out

No way, what about us in the UK Sure we have Smyths but where's our exclusive, plus I doubt we'll get the then now forever Elites. Actually I wouldn't mind if you had an exclusive rambler or what ever small figs Mattel make now.

I love my Canadian brothers. As long as someone would hook me up with what I wanted, I'm all for it.
You guys have to chase everything so why shouldn't Americans?

e39 is a really good set just massively overordered. Too many of the same set show up at all big box retailers is the problem.

To be honest, there shouldn't be "exclusive to" type figures anyhow. It just makes it harder to collect the figures you want, and with the USA having all the advantages in that, it sucks for other countries. My Elite Hall of Fame figures and TNF Tyler Breeze Elite would disagree with you on that one. I think exclusives are important because it gives us more characters and figures we might not otherwise get, for instance how WWE/Mattel didn't think an Elite Tyler Breeze would sell at mass retail but still made identical Los Matadores figures like it was a good idea. Store exclusives are actually really cool it's just not being able to find them at those stores that makes it hard for people. For example, there are Kmart exclusives and how many states have Kmarts still?? But then again, I haven't had any trouble finding any of the exclusives I want-- I just haven't seen the t-shirt series Finn Balor at Kmart yet but I only go there maybe once a month tops so I likely missed it. Also, Canada, do not fear! You will get an exclusive! But the bad news is, it won't be for another ten years and it'll be a Debut Attire Roman Reigns.
