Action Figure Haul - Wednesday November 14th, 2018
Found in store at Toys R Us in Canada today, it was online briefly but sold out very quickly. I had it in cart but couldn't complete the order. I was able to use the SKN number from the website to see when my local store was getting stock and the person who helps me out there sent me a Facebook message this morning that it was just coming off today's truck. I went on my lunch break at work and picked up this rare and amazing sight! Since Canada never received the Legacy Collection (grumble) this is our first (and only it seems) chance to get this type of Rex. Since they had them all out in their shipping boxes when I arrived, my friend let me go through them all so I was able to get the best paint apps and mint box.
Some issues I noticed when selecting one:
1. The speckle paint on the Rex can be done badly and look odd.
2. The mercanary's black eyeglasses are not always painted straight so it ends up being partially painted on his forehead.
3. The electrical box seemed to oddly have scuffs and marks like it was damaged and scratched being put into the box.
I won't be opening this one! If anyone wants me to pick one up for them let me know, I will ship to the USA or internationally but you'll have to cover the shipping costs which would be higher from Canada. They also had a 15% off everything in the store deal (pre-Black Friday deal) so it was also on sale to boot!
The eBay prices for this are around $250 USD right now. I hope it eventually comes to the USA but Victoria's Cantina (YouTube toy reviewer who does a lot of Jurassic stuff) got a care package from them and they said that this particular one (which they sent her) wasn't coming to the USA. She chose to keep it mint in box as well haha!
