I've ordered from both and never had an issue. Often I've gotten pre-orders earlier than the expected release date.

Are the July/Aug dates solidified?

The owner of TFTOYS.ca is an active member of our city's Facebook Transformers community. Super nice guy who is reliable. Id recommend him to anyone. If you live nearby he does pickups too.

Re: Earthrise Scorponok released in Canada

For Scorponok, why not get it directly from Pulse? With shipping, taxes and exchange it comes out a bit cheaper than the Canadian retail+taxes.

Fedex doesn't demand a kings random in broker fees?, never had good experiences with Fedex and UPS. I've read of ppl complaining about Canadians ordering from Hasbro Pulse having negative experiences due to shipping.

7-10$ I think, but it's free if you have an account (which costs nothing to have).

You prepay the taxes (no duty processing fee either, just the taxes) with Hasbro Pulse so there should be NO extra fees when it comes to your door. Same as ordering from Amazon JP. I've received one or two orders from Hasbro Pulse and that's how it's worked so far.

Some people have posted in the Hasbro Pulse thread that FedEx attempted to charge them extra, but when the recipient contacted Hasbro Pulse, they cleared things up with Fed Ex so that nothing was charged. Or something like that.

FedEx are pirate scum.


Thank you for the clarification though I do see they don't ship to Que for some odd reason "Not available to ship to Quebec, Canada." but that's not an issue for me anyways.


Were their shipping rates to you reasonable?
