Must have seen the entire season early and missed episode 10 somehow

Nah, turns out I thought there were only nine episodes, not twelve. Glad I checked, because the final three episodes were amazing! Also, this ISB Agent trooper does appear.

More Star Wars listed at JRC toys. Hopefully these will be at winners or better Dollarama https://jrctoys.com/index.php?route=...ath=133&page=2

Looks like they sold out of the GI Joe x TF Sgt. Kup w/Sgt. Slaughter and Leatherneck that they had listed before.

It should be interesting to see where those pop up.

And man that is a s@#% tonne of Star Wars product going to clearance.

Yup. Ever been to an Ollie?s in the states? It?s where Hasbro product goes to die. World class bullshitters do some great videos on the subject

Oh yeah I have seen many an Ollie's video. Closest one to me is about 1 1/2 hours away. One day I might try and go, but not while Trump is in power.

Don't get me started on World Class Bullshitters. I watched a couple of his videos, however the guy seems to make nothing but videos about Hasbro product piling up at Ollie's while promoting some comic he makes (using IP he doesn't own). Seems like another in a long line of Youtubers who use negativity to get views.

Wouldn't mind finding that wave of Star Wars Retros at Dollarama at all, 4lott!

I first started watching him along with a number of other toy hunters that did walk thrus of Ollie?s Target etc to see what new stock was showing up. Got hooked when all those ML figures were being stocked at ridiculously low prices. Then I started realizing that his content was the same video after video. So were the jokes. One trick pony however if someone isn?t familiar with the towers of Hasbro product you only need to watch one video to get a sense of how bad it is

Yep. Honestly though Ollie's has probably been in a dry spell now for a good six months. His videos show the exact same product piled up at Ollie's and yet he pretends like it is some sign that Hasbro is not selling. However it is the exact same product that has been on shelves for months (years?) so it is more the media property than just "Hasbro sucks, all their toys suck and don't sell."

Ollie's is still getting new stuff, albeit much less than during/after the pandemic. That stuff, for the most part, seems to sell pretty quickly.

I'm more interested to see what happens with the BS figures I found at Shoppers Drug Mart. I went in again yesterday and they were all still there (8 Vaders, 4 Mandos). Will they just sit on the shelves at Shoppers forever, or will they do a sale to clear them out?
