So yeah, she's getting a good lot since she only has Bumblebee right now. Was just hoping to pick up some more for Christmas. Will have to watch for more sales.
My daughter is having a class pizza party today where they are also celebrating the summer birthdays. So my little one who will be turning 5 in July told me she needs a birthday present today since her birthday is being celebrated. Sneaky little thing. I had her with me when I bought Megatron.

I went to all 4 Zellers in Kitchener/Waterloo and only 1 of them had a large selection but it was many of the same figure. Prime, Jazz, Oil Slick, Lockdown, but their were the odd Sentinel, Blurr, Swindle etc... etc... while 1 store had very little and a poor selection at that.
I ended up buying 3 Figures from one store, 1 at another and then 1 at the last I visted. Then thanks to a tip from a user here I went back to the store with the large selection and found the last figure I was looking for in a totally different aisle at the very back. I was there the first time at approx 11:30am and the main shelf was STOCKED! I was then back at 2:30pm and it was obvious alot was gone.
So with the sale, I've wondered how many parents have simply grabbed their kids one because its 50% off vs how many were collectors.
