Recently Dollarama had figures of the classic Ghostbusters where I picked up Peter and Ray. But 14 (!!!) Dollarama's later and I can't find Egon or Winston! They won't let me return them, so I'm stuck with half a Ghostbusters team.

Can anybody help me out? I'm willing to pay the Dollarama price of $4 each. If I wanted to pay the regular retail of $20 I would've bought them 2 years ago when they popped up at Wal-Mart.

Thanks!

I called and visited more than 20. Then my friend went out and she magically found them all in Scarborough. I don't know how she did it. Peter and ray are widely available, but other two were reportedly scarce. I haven't seen them on the pegs much since my own hunt last week. They may or may not show up again.

Check out Toys R Us. The ones around here have restocked them and are selling them for $8.98.

Both old, really. The first one is from Ghostbusters (1984) and the other one from Ghostbusters II. Neither is from the 2016 fiasco.

Thanks for the leads.

"York Region" doesn't really narrow it down for me.

I was pretty lucky and found all 4 at 2 separate stores. I feel your pain about getting the whole set though, having only 2 would suck.

Well, I've officially been to 15 Dollarama's now and 3 TRU's with no luck. I think I give up.

I know I seen all 4 @ a Dollarama. I believe it was in Sarnia. I might head out that way tomorrow. If their still there I'll pick the 2 up for you & ship them to you. Sound good ? Let me know. :)

Aug.27th UPDATE - Well I went back today to that Dollarama & they're completely wiped out of them now. I also went to a few more in London & all I could find is Peter & Ray. Sorry dude I tried. :(

Thanks, I appreciate it, but don't worry. After 15 Dollarama's and 3 TRU's I went back to my local store (Dollarama #1) for a totally separate reason, and they must've gotten in another case or something because there were 1 each of Winston and Egon! I'm not one to ignore it when the universe throws me a bone so I grabbed them.

Thanks all for you help. That's why I love our little community here!
