This is why I hate scalpers and MP releases. Every time we get some sort of exclusive that's really wanted by the community these ass hats got to come on here find where the stock is and then screw over the entire community. If you are by chance that toy store please screw off or at least do the right thing and help out the board that your "apart" of rather then just using us to find your inventory.

I think this is why TRU.ca is preordering now a days to avoid this. I ordered 2 to hopefully get a case and thus a mint box. Anyone need the other one before I return it let me know! PS they haven't shipped yet.

I picked up 2 at Sherway TRU today. In my opinion, he won't be hard to find; much like Acid Storm. It seems only the core characters disappear quickly; ie. Optimus, Soundwave, Grimlock, & Thundercracker.

Should be interesting to see if Prowl will be hard to find.

Acid Storm was hard to find out here...

would be interested in this if I didn't just get a MP11-s for a really good deal

has anyone noticed the packaging shows the old mold use initially for starscream?

never saw one acid storm in the wild.

Re: Masterpiece Sunstorm Released in Canada
 
That's odd; I recall seeing Acid Storm a lot for some reason in the GTA. I can't see why someone who isn't heavily into transformers would want him.

Yeah, it's lame. How hard would it be to take a new photo as opposed to photoshoping an old mold? Cutting corners I suppose?

Re: Masterpiece Sunstorm Released in Canada
 
I never seen one either. Had to order mine from TRU with Soundwave

Got Sunstorm today. It's really stupid that it's has the MP-03 mold on the box. And it's also stupid that the box art is different than the box used for Acid Storm. And the humongous Chinese characters for "Masterpiece" are just an eyesores. It looks totally like the worse kind of KO. Not even Takara has massive Japanese characters on their package.

Also Acid Storm was shelf warming in Vancouver for a few weeks...

Re: Masterpiece Sunstorm Released in Canada
 
Only saw Acid Storm one time. The art on Sunstorm is a custom with the MP03 mold.

Still looks like a yellow snowball with jet parts.

Opened mine today and he looks nice beside MP Acid Storm and iGear Sunstorm. I'm hoping an all-purple jet comes out eventually.

Nothing at St. Catharines. This store seems so slow at getting new stuff in. Urgh

Picked up a couple from the burlington Tru. Manager had the case in the back, I guess she was holding it back there for me haha. Had an employee get it for me as I was walking in the store.

It's great when your local store knows you and appreciates your patronage like this.

I'm still waiting for mine to be mailed to me. I'm going to have to start ordering items from the store for it to be delivered there free as I keep getting charged for shipping even though it's supposed to be free.

I recieved my order today. TRU is shipping the order in a bigger box now!!!!!! Both of my Sunstorm boxes are perfect, no damage!!!!! Wow, I'm so happy. TRU must have listened to us or they are tried of doing exchanges.

Re: Masterpiece Sunstorm Released in Canada
 
After calling several local TRU's I found an MP Sunstorm. The location in Brampton had 1 left and good thing I had them place it on hold.

chuskers 08-08-2014 01:12 PM

Re: Masterpiece Sunstorm Released in Canada
 
Just wondering from those who pre-ordered him at TRU, I got my payment notice and shipping notice and didn't get charged tax - anyone else have this happen?

Tarantulas 08-08-2014 05:51 PM

Re: Masterpiece Sunstorm Released in Canada
 
My Sunstorm arrived today, box in immaculate shape. Thank the Gods. Was totally assuming I'd have to do an exchange.

Re: Masterpiece Sunstorm Released in Canada
 
Finally got to pick up my Sunstorm from Purolater, and it's a good thing I display my figures, my box is heavily creased and the side was opened. The plastic tray was still taped though but, strangely, the fingers were backwards on his hands. Couldn't figure out why his fists wouldn't close. But I wasn't charged tax either, so that's alright.
