Toys R' Us Exclusive 6' Titanium Figures will NOT be coming to Canadian Retail

With the help of StarwarsTF and offical word from Toys R' Us Canada, I regret to inform the Canadian Transformers fans that the Toys R' Us Exclusive 6' Titanium War Within Prowl and War Within Grimlock will not be coming to Canadian Retail.

TRU Canada has stated that they have passed on this line due to the poor sales on the last couple of waves of the Titanium line (including Marvel and Star Wars)

Too bad, I was still looking for Prowl. I'll get it elsewhere.

I was just teasing.

There are several 6Ti figures I don't recall ever seeing at retail, so I'm not surprised. The few stores were getting were always slow sellers in my area.

I honestly knew it was the Marvel and Star Wars fault, I mean they were shelf warming and TFs 6' Titaniums were so hard to find, I'd usually only find one figure from each wave, it was obvious they were the only ones selling.

I do think it is ridiculous,and there are hte" Toys R' Us Exclusive 6' Titanium", War Within Prowl and War Within Grimlock. Who cares about the Marvel and Star Wars Titanium if those are not "transformers". They just assumed all Titanium line as a whole to perform badly.

Besides, most of the previous Titanium could get it elsewhere,right? now they even pass on the good selling,and exclusive Grimlock. What are they thinking? it just make an unprofessional decision from the toy management of Toysrus.

So I just save the money to buy the MasterPiece Grimlock then.
