Re: Titans Return Deluxe Brainstorm to be a Walgreens exclusive?

Does anyone know if being a Walgreens exclusive in the U.S. means it will get limited/no release in Canada? Could it end up being a Walmart or TRU exclusive here?

Neither really. All the Walgreens I've ever been to are drug stores. Not as diverse in what they sell at London Drugs but also not as limited as Shoppers Drug Mart....somewhere in between that scale.

IIRC, I think it probably means we won't see a release in Canada. I say that because I don't think the Canadian headquarters of Walmart or TRU could get access to an exclusive item that the American division was restricted from. I also don't think we ever saw any of the Target exclusives north of the border before Target tried their expansion into Canada.

Several Target exclusives ended up as Zellers exclusives up here. I remember seeing several movie ones at my local Zellers.

EB Games Sell WalGreens exclusive ML so I would think that they could sell this as well

I doubt EB Games will carry it, as I've never seen any TF's there before ... or is that cuz I live in the boonies ? LoL

Anyway not much of a concern for me as I already have the Generations Brainstorm but ya that sucks for those who don't.

Amazon.ca has carried the last two marvel legends Walgreen exclusives as well, so I'm sure Amazon.ca will pick it up as they carry transformers while eb games doesn't.

Canada never got the Walgreen exclusive agent venom or the star wars black 6 inch Boba fett figure so I don't see us getting them at retail, maybe amazon through a 3rd party with markup but that's it.

That's really crappy if true. Wonder how Walgreens are getting all these exclusives.

No kidding! They're a drugstore chain after all. Why the hell are they getting exclusives ahead of bigger actual retailers?
