I can see them NOT wanting the US show has any unique items, because then the Canadian people will feel shorted of course, but being months alter, there are bound to be items that simplay are not released in time for the Canadian show, but will be out at the US show. We are getting over a dozen 3P toys released per month these days, and there are months between the shows.
BTW - This guy should totally be the mascot of TFcon USA...
