Re: Captain America 2 & Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figures Released in Canada
That's just insane.
Then again, look what happened, people actually paid that stupid price to get Black Cat and Aim Soldiers??? Why??? They will be at retail in large numbers thanks to the movies.

Re: Captain America 2 & Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figures Released in Canada
I was not joking about the price. Its just too much. I really do hope they show up in large numbers around here. If toysrus gets them then at least there is a chance of some discount at some point.
I would rather chase them at retail. Thrill of the hunt and all that hard part will be getting them before scalpers do

Re: Captain America 2 & Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figures Released in Canada
I was just at Target and seen the Spidey 6'' Legends figures!!! So happy to finally see some decent stuff at retail that I want/collect, then tons of stuff that doesn't interest me, or I already have. I have a guy in the US hooking me up with the cap/spidey figures at retail which is $14.99+ tax+ shipping compaired to the $19.99+tax price at Target. I still need to find a Carnage figure, Electro and army builders. If anybody comes across some let me know. If I don't respond on here, pm me at supermanrocks69@hotmail.com

401 Games is further down Yonge Street, and while it doesn't have as much Marvel Legends stuff as Silver Snail, they have a great selection of NECA figures for GREAT prices.
Case in point: Pacific Rim figures for 17.99 when Silver Snail is charging 24.99

Re: Captain America 2 & Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figures Released in Canada
Even at retail in Canada these new ML figs are going to be pricey. I just picked up one of each at my LCS and they are worth it in my opinion, but are they worth LCS prices? Quality from Hasbro on sculpt is getting better with each new wave (I won't make a descision on the X-Men 5 pack until I see it though).
If, as collectors, we want quality toys, we'll be paying more, but I just wish they had a little better QC for the paint apps and the stubs left over from the forms.
Do you guys think they raised the price too soon? As in, before the quality was up to the monetary value? I think they're close, how close? I'm not exactly sure

Correction: $18.95 at 401 Games, but still, a big difference in price.

Re: Captain America 2 & Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figures Released in Canada
Basically the take away from all your posts:
1) LCS/Specialty stores are now charging fairly ridiculous prices for figures.
2) Target is getting in the Spidey MLs and most likely the Cap MLs as well. Which signals to me that TRU and Walmart should both be bringing in these lines. Meaning DON'T pay a high price for these figures. You'll be able to get them at regular retail (and maybe even a sale price if you're lucky).
