Exclusives are an agreement between Hasbro and a retailer who pays a premium to have a toy specifically to themselves. They are "exclusive" to that store, nothing more. They suck for collectors, by design.

Skrapnel is still $6.46 on walmart.ca if anyone is still looking for him, though I have no idea how that site works for other regions. I ordered him and a bag of marshmellows last week. The marshmellows were really good.

Re: Combiner Wars Gift Set

You should blame Wal-mart as they are the ones that don't want to carry anything that takes uo that much space but they did carry stomp and chomp grimlock so here is hoping they do as this set is not as bis as Metroplex

mmmmmmmmarshmallows

I didn't even think Walmart online delivered in Canada...hmm, interesting. I guess it's been a while. I paid twice that for my Skrapnel, but at six bucks you can't go wrong.
