Toys have been pretty good, they were the first to get ML Spideys. Though as of late they haven't been all that great for Marvel stuff.
thats for sure....my local store had the tags up for the avengers infinite 4" for months.....to this day nary a one....

Re: Target in canada.

IMO target sucks here..... USA targets have larger toy aisles, with older product staying longer, but never taking up space for new product... some MU stuff target here cleared out so fast for 5.49 then 3.29 i never even got a chance! our aisles are constantly half empty, and when they clear things out for 70% nothing takes its place.. also if you scan an item over in the USA, it shows if there are any in the stockroom or not... their online store also carries all the in store figures, including the HTF ones like black widow

Re: Target in canada.

I was surprised to see LEGO polybags. They actually had the Batman Tumbler. But not in the toy aisle, near the front registers. Not even TRU had that one.

Re: Target in canada.

They just updated their Price Match policy to include certain Online Competitors:

http://www.target.ca/en/support/price-match?lnk=gnav

(Amazon.ca, Walmart.ca, Bestbuy.ca, ToysRUs.ca, BabiesRUs.ca, CanadianTire.ca, Futureshop.ca and Sears.ca)

One more tool for us to use in our toy hunting!

Re: Target in canada.

I'm weeping because I missed this. I wanted Arkham Origins and I was willing to get it by the time it reaches $19.99, but at $10???!!!

There must be nothing left good there now. Sigh.

Funny that you mention the Black Widow being sold in US Targets and their online store. The Captain America Marvel Legends weren't even available in Canadian Targets... The second series didn't even hit Toysrus... just Walmarts and comics stores...
