Masterpiece Grimlock Sighted at Canadian Retail!

[Compu1er]

When will the new stock arrive????
I have been to every TRU’s in Edmonton and there all sold out? And no one can tell me when they will restock? And why is it not on their website?

PS: I can only hold my breath for so long

Settle down everyone don't worry one bit if you haven't got your hands on one. Toys R Us Canada originally only bought 800 pieces, though as of yesterday they bought another 2200pieces, they should be on the shelf in two weeks. For the time being, the remaining 206 at head office are being sent out to the stores, most stores will have 6 or so until those 2200 make their way! Cheers everyone!!!

This has eased my worries somewhat. Thanks.

It IS sad that TRU doesn't have this available online yet, not to mention ANY new TFs lately. Compared to TRU USA, our online store doesn't have 1/4 of the figures listed either. And what bothers me the most is that there are soooo many customers out there who don't have a TRU store nearby, yet the customer service reps at TRU don't seem to care when you mention this in your inquiry. In my opinion, TRU should have made these available online as soon as they were available in store. I check the website daily, and sadly, the same "55 items" keep showing up over and over and......

One of these days, I'm going to check online after giving up hope for a few days, and everything I was hoping to buy will be more than likely out of stock. I Can't win !

The room is spinning, I think I’m going to black out.
2-3 weeks is way too long to hold your breath.

Does Anyone know someone that works at TRU in Alberta? Would be nice to get the low down on when the new stock will arrive.

the things with those 2200 pieces, a few hundred of them might be taken for the online stock and won't go toward the stores.

It is, after all, a $69.99 item. Not cheap.

Some managers have instruction that can not hold the items if they are too popular or new. You basically try to talk to a nice staff if you are lucky enough.
$69.99 is actually the main reason that we want it with a crown instead of the expensive Takara Grimlock. Even though the color and painting is still different but is still the cheapest MP Grimlock that we should get.

I'm glad to see that post from QUICKSTRIKE re: the 2200.
I really don't want to miss out on a MP Grimlock at $69.99 with no shipping charges.

He was online for sale last week for a few hours, but you could only buy one, and the only way they would cover shipping is if you purchase $100 or more.
