Re: Captain America 2 & Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figures Released in Canada

I think silver snail in particular is raising prices dramatically fast. Maybe they want to catch those collectors who are ready to pay any price and who dont have time to go to retail. For me personally it was always the thrill of the hunt. I never mind to wait for retail to get the figures and skip places like silver snail.

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

In my case when it comes to spidey legends i might be interested in black cat maybe. Cap legends i would like to get red skull,zemo and if possible 2 aim soldiers. I have lots of hydra soldiers from previous hasbro version so thats why i dont care for this present one.

I was just at my local Target and they had a tag $19.99 (empty peg, but it looks like they're doing a reset) for Spider-Man, but not one for Cap. TRU had nothing except a full peg of Drax for $19.99, and Walmart had nothing, and no sign of reset (that probably doesn't mean anything though), so I grabbed two Ultron's for $10 each (Yesss!). Both lines are at my LCS (Galaxy), or at least they were last night.

If the UPC's aren't posted before I get home this evening, I'll put up the Cap ones, unless Spidey's are requested too

Were they in the back? Or on the shelf? I'm pretty sure if you saw those two on the shelf, the other 6 from the case were bought or in the back

They were on the shelf just hanging there without a price sticker...no sign of the others at all.

Weird, sounds like it wasn't entered into their system, or it was accepted as a return without being scanned?

They probably weren't in their system yet. TRU's around here are notorious for that but the Target in neighbouring Whitby had the 2 Spider-man and movie Electro figures in stock for $19.99 each so they're on the ball at least.

I have to say, I'm relieved to see these at this price retail. I thought they would be more
