Re: BBTS Shipping

It's usually not worth it for just a couple of figures. Any more expensive option will move into courier realm, which is usually a more expensive brokerage fee.

Anything that moves to CP is...

Re: GameStop Policy Changes

Toy companies have adjusted their production runs. What we've seen marked down over the last year was all ordered during the COVID boom.

The industry is not expecting to see the same level of...

Re: BBTS Shipping

Is Economy Air Mail the cheap option? It ships with Ascendia, which hands off to Canada Post. You will almost definitely pay tax and the 9.95 brokerage fee from CP.

Re: Help. Can't ID these guns.

Did you paint them yourself? Seems like it would be a rare occurrence for Hasbro to paint pistols like that.

Re: NMC Toys aka Northmen Collectibles feedback

I try not to comment on this subject too much as it feels unprofessional and inappropriate, but no...I don't think he'll be back in any meaningful way.

Re: Super7 Cobra Mothership Crowdfund

The numbers on this seem really steep. Despite it's presence in the cartoon intro, it seems like a pretty niche offering - and the backer numbers so far seem to reflect that.

Re: NMC Toys aka Northmen Collectibles feedback

Sure, but even telling people what's going on (doesn't need to be in detail if it's personal) is the least somebody can do in that situation. It's never cool to just ghost customers who have given...

Re: Indiana Jones: Adventure Series Discussion

Hasbro (or any company that makes licensed goods) will never reveal specific products upon random inquiries.

These things have to go through so many levels of approval that every little thing...

Re: McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse toyline

Yeah for sure. Still kind of bummed as there were improvements to Dark Knight and The Batman, but I can get over it.

Re: McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse toyline

I also got confirmation from Gamestop that they did not get enough of the Ultimate Movie Bundles and they wouldn't be able to fill my order.

Re: McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse toyline

It was up for a very short amount of time.

Amazon.com actually just had it up for a bit today, and I was able to snag one. Should be here next week. Actually worked out to a pretty good price,...

I find TRU exclusives are available to the point of excess.

I didn't order this year's figure, but I placed an order for an in stock Dark Lyn, and it still hasn't shipped after more than a month. I emailed a couple of weeks ago and they said it was 'in the...

Re: Indiana Jones: Adventure Series Discussion

I've heard that the Indy line was always going to be a limited timeframe, likely just to coincide with there being new media. There's no way Hasbro thought it could be an ongoing line.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

Some stuff that was Pulse exclusive has been made available, including the Drax & Moondragon set.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

Sorry, but this is not true. There has been well-documented research about all the things that were done wrong.

I've heard first-hand reports. I worked with somebody who was involved with...

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

Saying we should have our own because the EU does doesn't make sense. The EU has ONE Pulse site for all of the included EU countries. Why would they create a second site for a country that is...

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

I think people are severely underestimating how much shipping actually costs.

Any of these Haslab projects probably have to be shipped individually due to size constraints. If Hasbro gave a...

Re: McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse toyline

I've never been burned by a preorder before, but the fact that the item says 'Released' online, but the store hasn't gotten it yet definitely has me worried.

I bought a bunch of other movie...

Re: Micro Galaxy Squadron

Oh nice, thanks. I guess wave 2 just came and went at GS while they sat on excess wave 1.

I will definitely up my Walmart checks.

Annoyingly, my wave 3 case break had NO chase figures.

Re: Micro Galaxy Squadron

This line is so frustrating to collect in Canada. Did anybody ever sell wave 2 of the blind box scout figures? I managed to buy a whole box worth of wave 3 from Gamestop, but I don't recall ever...

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

Hasbro was re-offering solid cases of both Venom and Carnage from that wave. Could very well be legit, though that price is maybe a bit sketchy.

I saw one in Burlington yesterday as well. Left it, not something I'm interested in.
