But I don't know that I'd want to go the eBay route. The shipping cost is practically as much as the figure!
Depends on from where and who but time will tell

Re: Cyber Battalion in Canada?

I got my CB figures from Tony (robotoybase) way back when they first got released. If you order from him, just combine with some 3rd party figures.

Re: Cyber Battalion in Canada?

That Shockwave was found in taiwan and no where else so far. It probably wont come to canada since these are not mainline toys, but rather market six exclusives (hence only appearing at Wallgreens in the US) and made for countries that have a developing economy.

Ebay wont be the place for these. You are better off checking asian sites like robot kingdom and sir toys (yes I know sir toys is mainly KO, but they carried these last time).

Also, for those unaware, that shockwave may look nice but it will be very hollow and simplified with limited articulation (example no knees), as is the case with every toy in the line. These toys are aimed at younger kids similarly Titan Changers and 3 step toys.

Agreed, but currently I have Prime Beast Hunters Shockwave as my stand-in for 'CHUG' Shockwave and, man, he looks shit! I'll take a non-posable Cyber Battalion Shockwave with limited articulation and hollow limbs over PBH Shockwave any day... for the right price though.

It looks good enough to stand on a shelf with all my other Shockwave figures!
