Combiner Wars Break-Neck & Quickslinger

Just wanted to know if these ever came out at regular retail price in Canada ??

I've heard of them being released in the US Toys R Us for $15.99. And I'm not to happy to spend $35+ for each here in Canada !!

Maybe they came out months ago, as I got in fairly late into the Combiner Wars lines. If they did already come out in Canada at retail then I stand corrected.

Re: Combiner Wars Break-Neck & Quickslinger

I'm pretty sure they were never regular retail toys. Any reportings of them being at TRU were probably weird returns or something. To my knowledge only comic/specialty stores and online stores got them. I do know 100% they never came out at TRU in Canada.

The Wildrider and Quickslinger were Online Exclusives. I believe Target(US) ToysRus.com(US) and Amazon.com(US) carried them. To my knowledge no Canadian Online retailer ever carried them, nor did any store.

Re: Combiner Wars Break-Neck & Quickslinger

From what I was told my Tru got two boxes of these figures but they sold with a snap of a finger. So probably some tru's got some but some didn't and cause probably working with a 4 per case(2x each) they vanished quickly. I'm not that mad though since the Saskexpo is coming and they have many American retailers my chances to find breakneck is pretty good.

Re: Combiner Wars Break-Neck & Quickslinger

Much appreciated for all the info guys

I guess I'll have to bite the bullet and pick them up at Toys on Fire here in Montreal.

Unfortunately Break-neck is $25.95 and Quickslinger is $38.95 + tax = $75 roughly !!!??? REALLY for two Deluxe figures !????

Oh wellz ......

And I thought paying 60.00 for the two at TFcon was bad but these guys you just have to bite the bullet and pay it before they surly start to go up more in price

Re: Combiner Wars Break-Neck & Quickslinger

I paid 18 Canadian each tax in, so $36 altogether for the set at Silver Snail but I got a deal on them.
