Re: Will CW Slingshot & Wildrider be in Canada?

Walmart.com has them up. No Canadian sites yet.

Did it say it was in stock though? I just checked and said out of stock. I would imagine it has something to do with the 5/22/15 release date but I'm guessing

They keep going in and out of stock on amazon.com. add them to a wish list to find them easier. Mine are in transit.

What's the URL for them? I used to have them in wishlist, can't find them anymore.

Re: Will CW Slingshot & Wildrider be in Canada?

.com isn't too bad...

YOu have to be sneaky to find the links. I'll post them here in a minute. $16.99 each plus 7.37 and 4.50 for import fee deposit... the total, in CAD, was $55 which is below Automaton.

I did the math. If regular retail (Walmart) got them at $19.99 each then you're paying about $23 each... total of 46. Silver Snail and the like will be at least $24.99 or higher... with taxes, it's the same as Amazon.com.

Will .ca get them? Hard to say. Logically, I would have said yes, but considering Hasbro is states-oriented, I'm not as confident.

Amazon.ca doesn't usually carry toys.
The ones being sold there are being sold through them, not by them.

Re: Will CW Slingshot & Wildrider be in Canada?

I'm not holding out much hope that major Canadian retailers are going to receive these, if only for the fact that these are all uni-lingual packaged figures.

(I feel safe in assuming Hasbro Canada isn't going to go to the trouble of making new packaging, either.)

In the end, this looks to basically be an "American" set of exclusives that only get into other countries by way of distributors that allow them to be shipped internationally (Diamond, Amazon, etc).
