Toys R' Us Exclusive Animated Arcee and Ratchet Sighted in Canadian Retail

[Jove]

Looks like Arcee is all but gone the day that it hits the shelves. I hope that this won't be the last shipment, 'cause I missed out this time around...

Scalpers grumble grumble.

Not sure, but this could be your answer:

Matrix_Holders Arcee review:

She's Ef'en awesome...buy her!
add ROTF's brawns guns to her and it is even more epic.

That person's not even in the same city as Uberman. Good job.

I am in London, and my son really wants Arcee. Sux that people go and buy all the stock. I'm sure she'll be back in a week or two but still. Pisses me off. Maybe I should offer the $16 or $17 that he paid for BOTH as its BOGO. Scalpers suck.

Sorry for the tiny rant. My little guy is 4 and has been patiently waiting (as much as a 4yr old can be patient) and now he has to wait longer.

Since you're in Strathroy you might want to check the TRU in Sarnia from time to time. I find I doesn't get as ransacked as the London one. I took a drive out their this morning to see I could find an Arcee. I didn't find one but they do have a very full selection of TF toys, some I haven't seen in months anywhere else.

Good news for people that were wanting to get these figures.

I have no regrets about importing mine. In total I only paid about 5 bucks more than retail for the pair of them...and I've had them for months now.

Happy hunting to everyone!

Cheers!

Yea my wife mentioned Sarnia as an option. I noticed while in London today they are building a new TRU out on Wonderland S. next to Home Depot. I wonder if the Wellington store is moving or we are getting a 2nd store! Unlikely based on how close they would be, but hoping!

I'd be shocked if they added a 2nd store since they halved the original 15 years ago to attach a Chapters. On the bright side it would be closer for both of us (I live in westmount) and here's hoping they build a bigger store with more selection.
